6 years of output really. "Let It Be" was released in 1970, yes, but it was actually recorded in February of 1969 and sat on the shelf for a year. So their titanic output took place within 6 years, from 1963 - 1969. "Abbey Road," their last-recorded album was released in August 1969.
@@classicalethics2053 Their first recording "Love Me Do" was recorded in September 1962 and Abbey Road was released in September 1969: that's exactly 7 years. (If one doesn't count "I Me Mine", recorded in January 1970, which makes it 7 and 1/3 years.)
Now you've done it! After stumbling across this video I've watched a good half dozen others about the same subject, watched 3 different Beatles performances of it, and downloaded the sheet music for piano!
The early Beatles could write the Book on Love. If you analyze “If I Fall” you will see how insightful the lyrics are on Love and the psychological twists and turns of the mind trying to protect itself. John had a great depth of observation on love when it came to rejection, acceptance, pain, and revenge. He points to his own song “I Want to Hold Your Hand” to say love is not that simple. “I'm a Loser” is also another great song from John that touches on the complexity of love and psychology that can play itself out. Great insights from a young man.
A Hard Days Night is just an incredible album and I would put it in my top three Beatles albums. Also ‘This Boy’ was left off the album, only the Beatles could do that.
@@I_Am_Become_Light I haven’t done anything other than try to help you with your vocabulary. If you want to sound illiterate, continue using words incorrectly. I was pointing out that you didn’t have an understanding of a word. Sorry if I upset you. I actually am already in my room listening to the underrated “If I Fell.”
Do you understand the definition of "underrated?" If a song is underrated, then it has to be rated poorly by people to start with. Since this is not the case, then you just look like a fool by using that lazy word.
The biggest sad fact is, that John Lennon, WAS A CHRISTIAN IN WORD, NOT IN ACTION, BEHAVIOR, OR IN 1:33 LIVING PROOF HE LOVED JESUS CHRIST, then John turns around after becoming wealthy, that their Band will outlive and be more important than JESUS CHRIST, landed him (John Lennon) in Hell, where he awaits his final Judgement at the White Throne Judgement of Christ, where he will hear these words from Jesus Christ Himself, “…depart from ME, I never knew you John Lennon…”. These are going to be the most fearful words anyone can hear from JESUS CHRIST. REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, BEFORE ITS TOO LATE - REMEMBER HELL IS AROUND THE CORNER…
Nothing underrated about this song - - IMO it's one of their absolute best!👌🏻
totally agree. An early Lenon masterpiece.
I have always thought that this song is a forgotten masterpiece. It's always been one of my favorites of their early period.
Been one of my favorites since hard days nite. Im 71 now. Still sing along. Loud. All rock and roll begins w the beatles .
The Beatles' only-7-years output will provide food for thought, research and pleasure for centuries.

Unforgettable, timeless, never get tired of hearing it!!
It is underrated . . . never mentioned among the greatest Beatles songs . . . and it should be.
So beautiful, thank you Will. I was introduced to it listening to Reba MacIntyre's version, a real heart and soul song!
Thanks very much xxxx
I've always been impressed by the song. But you're right, it would make a fantastic vehicle for jazz improvisation.
John's chord use has always been intriguing to me.
It would have also made a great Christmas song!

Long Live The Beatles
Is it the first Beatles song to use a diminished chord?
Someone needs to look up the word underrated
Why do you think it's underrated? It's a magnificent song on several levels.
Look up the word “underrated “ I don’t think you know what it means.
@@Dex619 LOL
@@I_Am_Become_Light I’m not being funny. You really need to look up “underrated”.
@@Dex619 Go back to your room and think about what you've done.

You’re a bundle of laughs eh? Ever heard the phrase ‘judge not’ ?
Just the fact it’s usually left off of the red album and it wasn’t a single, doesn’t get mentioned as much as some others,
