My Beatles brain can't get enough! More More More
This was how history's greatest rock 'n roll band kicked ass live in their prime.
Great song! one of my favorites of their early ones. This performance was wonderful too, such a small intimate group. I loved the fact you commented on the next act setting up. You need to watch the Long Tall Sally from the same performance, it is after this when the hosts just don't want the Beatles to leave and continue to watch the other performers watch them. Fun stuff.
These guys loved having fun and were silly at times. I get to brag that I had seats up front at the Hollywood Bowl in the mid ‘60s when the Beatles played there ❤️😀
I saw them on the Ed Sullivan show and was mesmerized. I had never seen anything like them--because there wasn't. They were funny, charming, witty, and intelligent. And the music! Became an instant fan. Never able to see them live, and I really enjoy clips like this. I have all their records on vinyl and play them over and over again. They grew and evolved and so did their music. They pushed the boundaries of what rock n roll was and could be.
You'll love Paul performing the song at a Billy Joel concert.
Bonus - He was an unannounced guest.
All the girls LOVED the Beatles. All the boys wanted to BE the Beatles for that reason!
You can't get any more timeless than The Beatles! I was born in 1964 and just turned 60 and here we are 60 years later and the young people are discovering them (if they didn't hear them through via parents) and are loving them as well.
Beatles/Do You Want To Know A Secret. This was among the few songs that was released in the USA in 1963 just before full blown Beatlemania the next year in 1964😮😊
Love Me Do was their first release in the UK.
I Want to Hold Your Hand who is the first US hit and started beetle mania in the United States. Other early releases were She Loves You, Love Me Do (first release in the UK), and one of my favorites, I Should Have Known Better. Some of the later mid Beatles songs I like best are For No One, She's Leaving Home, Penny Lane, and Eleanor Rigby, what are the so-called Baroque Beatles style.
I love the early Beatles! My favorite was a ballad, And I Love Her.
Released in 1963, "All I've Got To Do" will show you the harmonizing they became famous for.
Another song with great Beatles’ harmonies is “This Boy” !
Love them live!
as I recall-this is the Drop In show from sweden in 1963 about three weeks before Beatlemania hit Britain then a few months later the US. This is why you can hear the music.
On tour, they would travel with 6-8 more bands and each band would do a 20-30 minute set of all their songs.
Twist and Shout,Money, She's a Woman are all early Beatles and all Bangers.
I love the early Beatles songs!! I was 11 when I got Beatlemania, had every photo on my wall. Heinz catsup had a thing if you saved bottle labels you could get a 6 foot tall photo of your favorite Beatle. Mine was Paul. When I got my 6 foot photo and put it up, my mother thought there was a man in my room, that I thought was crazy!!! I think I still have everything I had then tucked away. Some day it will be fun to look back at everything again. I even had a Beatles trading card collection that I won a prize for. A magical time!! Don't know if you reacted to Please Please Me or All My Loving. George had the lead in Do You Want To Know A Secret. All early Beatles.
That stuff is valuable.
Definitely need to listen to a better version of this. Plus PURLEEEEASE (and for a massive contrast) listen to 'Anna (Go To Him) from the 'Please Please Me' album. Beautiful vocal from John, who was apparently suffering from flu when he recorded the track.
Love The Beatles. Also, love The Fab Four. Please give them a try. Maybe with this song. And, The Fab Four, the ultimate tribute, part 1, 2, 3
In the 40s, 50s and 60s, it was the advertisers on the radio that dictated how long songs could be. More than 3 minutes was too long to not have a commercial to make money for the sponsor. The Beatles took a couple of years to build up popluarity to cross the 4 minute mark.,
This one TV show performance made them the biggest band in Sweden and the compare was so impressed when this should have been their last number but she asked them to do one more and they obliged with Long Tall Sally and brought the house down.
Best song ever!!!
Wow this is really early clip. Love Macca, met him when I was at university in Liverpool 🇬🇧🇬🇧
My grandpa could never remember their name, he called them the Bugs 😂🤣. My stepdad called them the Mop heads.
Love,
Granny
Their first U.S. number 1 was I Want To Hold Your Hand. A good song to continue exploring the early Beatles. Their 1963 Royal Command performance is a pretty good quality recording.
For its time their look was wild. The suits were collarless, the latest in fashion but very different than what you would see day-to-day. Hair is neatly trimmed but at this time it was so far beyond what was considered a middle-class haircut folks claimed they looked like girls. Standards changed quickly after this. They weren't necessarily the first artists to adopt this look but they were very popular in the mainstream, appealing to girls of all classes in a way that most adults didn't get at the time.
But as you noted in the beginning, they were very practiced, every song was well-rehearsed and they were a tight band on stage, which meant that they could smile and seemingly goof around on stage, while still making amazing music. They had already been together for 5-6 years when this was recorded, playing in small clubs in the UK and in Germany, playing multiple sets between acts in strip clubs for 8-10 hours per night, thousands of hours in front of small crowds with minimal sleep and lots of amphetamines, developing their act and perfecting their songs, until they hit it big.
I love love love love this song, me amarro muito ❤
A large part of this was that the Beatles were closer to a modern rock group concept. Other groups were sneaking up on rock, but most of them came off as still somewhat like musical revue acts. It's impossible to really convey what was happening without living in the time.
How about THIS BOY, A 3 part harmony song as old as this song. Other early Beatles are IF I FELL, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER, CAN'T BUY ME LOVE......
You've got to do their live version of "Revolution"!
Usually with these live performances, the mics are the problem, but here it's George's guitar solo that isn't amp'ed properly.
Their first two albums were their best. The Drummer was Ringo Starr! He has a humorous side, all his life. John Lennon was the serious one. But I love Ringo. Paul was the Shakespeare of the group. George was inside guy watched and learned.
The Beatles and Elvis ⭐⭐
The drummer is known as Ringo or Ringo Starr. His real name is Richard Starke, but very early in his career, he adopted Ringo Starr as a stage name. I think it was because a former band he was in would feature him periodically in a presentation called "Starr Time" or something like that. All of the Beatles grew up in Liverpool, England, but Ringo grew up in the poorest section. He was the last member of the Beatles to join in 1962, replacing original drummer Pete Best.
@@NGT-eb2oy Right.
You should look out for George Thorogood's tribute to The Beatles. He says what struck him, seeing them on the Ed Sullivan Show, was just how happy they were. America at that time was miserable after JFK was shot and no jobs etc. And here come these four cheeky happy lads from Liverpool.
Their manager, Brian Epstein, insisted the dressed smartly to give a good impression.
How about reacting to the whole of the first album, Please Please Me? It's great. Recorded in 12 hours flat, no messing around.
Despite the sound balance being slightly off (making Johns harmonising vocals drown out Paul's lead here, and elsewhere George's guitar solo gets pretty much lost), I still highly recommend ANY song from this same 1963 set, which was part of a Swedish TV show. The whole thing is a blast - you really should try and watch the whole set, if you can.
The background is that although Beatlemania had already swept the UK, and they had a keen following in Hamburg, Germany, they were otherwise still virtually unknown to the rest of the world. That meant they were still hungry for success and putting in 100% to each performance (later that success became overwhelming and an obstacle to further growth as a live act, since they couldn't be heard above the screams, prompting a retreat to the studio and a whole new phase of creative development). So, here, you can not only hear them well, but you can observe the engagement of the audience build throughout the set, with two successive extensions to their set, ending in a peak of excitement with Paul's cover of Little Richard's Long Tall Sally/ Have Some Fun Tonight. And how nice it is to see them able to be so up close with the audience, something that would become impossible within a few short months, anywhere in the world.
You're so right about the energy and joy they radiated; that 'magic in a bottle' as you put it...no other band came close. I can assure you boys loved them as well as girls. It was said every girl wanted to date a Beatle, while every boy wanted to *be* one. They opened the door to all the new bands and musical styles that followed. I do believe they were a special gift from heaven, whatever some disapproving Christians might say about them! This planet, while far from being fully healed/ perfected, IMO really is a better place for their presence and enduring influence - kinder, more tolerant, more alive and open to new possibilities, more honest. You might have had to be there to witness the shift, but it was tangible, and a thing of joy to be a part of.
They definitely evolved over the 10-15 yrs but doesn't everybody from ages 19 - 33?
Hi Michael! You were right about the disrespect of the second band, but this was live TV back in 63 when tape was really expensive and changeovers happened live in front of your eyes. But play the tape on, the crowd didn't want The Beatles to leave so they played an impromptu encore of Long Tall Sally which has even more energy. Here's a recent colourised version of that encore czcams.com/video/wf2glQHLOtE/video.html
Songs were less than 3 minutes back then, The Beatles, and others, did 30 min concerts.....10 songs....can you imagine that? John Lennon was blond as a bat, and on stage he could not see a thing. You can see him squint in a lot of live videos....until he started a fashion trend with those granny glasses.
Have you done “I Want To Hold Your Hand”? That’s an early banger.
Those wide necked les paul guitars are wild. Is that Germany they're in?
the hair cuts were new too
so the brumer is ringo star in the beatles
Nowhere Man (live in Germany)
Girls liked 'em because they were cute and sang love songs, boys liked 'em because they were cool and played their own instruments. At least that's the impression that I got about Beatlemania. I wish I'd been there! I think the best thing about them was that they grew up with and evolved alongside their fanbase. SO MUCH changed from 1963 to 1970, I don't think people today realize that. And with the Beatles, you see and hear those changes every step of the way. In any case, it's really a shame that film footage of the early Beatles is so bad and you really have to get the more "experienced" fans to point you in the right direction. The Ed Sullivan show clips are generally the best of the bunch. Try Please Please Me!
The problem with the Ed Sullivan clips is they are tightly copyright-controlled, and they don’t want music video reactors to monetize their content at their expense. Hence, they get blocked.
Yes, there was something extra about them.
Georges guitar solo is completely lost in this live version. Check the studio version.
I had forgotten about them bowing after performing. It became a trademark of young, fake-playing, lip-sync, Beatles "cover" bands; really added some realism LOL.
First time hearing…do you live under a freaking rock ?
You must be joking, and rude too
It's the hair dude you live under a rock
Lately I’ve noticed a number of reactors doing the stage medley from the movie Hard Days Night. If I remember off the top of my head, that was Tell Me Why, If I Fell, I Should’ve Known Better… And something else that’s not coming to me right now.
That was a music video from 1964 that still stands up today!! great music and great film making.
I’m trying to paste a link to the clip here…this is something somebody else managed to get away with!

Yes, I agree. Look for another video of this song where there mikes aren't off like they were on this performance. John's Mike was too hot, so his harmony vocal ended up sounding like the lead vocal instead of the great harmony they always have. This was a terrible mix. Made the instruments sound off, too. If you listen to the record you will find that they sounded equally as great live! Just couldn't tell on this one because the film mix was so off. It's great, thiugh, that they grabbed you in spite of all that! Yep, pure joy! Also, as you check out their records from the beginning right up to the end you will see the natural and gradual progression and change of not only their appearance but also their music and song writing. They were growing up and maturing right before the eyes of the world so it makes sense. The suits were a genuine thing. It was a fresh and deliberate change from the Elvis-inspired leather jackets that were all the rage with all the guys at that time. Their brilliant manager, Brian Epstein, was responsible for that. All of us girls, back in the day, LOVED seeing their great looking guys, dressed so prim and proper, letting loose and getting crazy! Moptops! Anyway, their growth and progression as musicians and people is what kept the world enthralled and ended up affecting an entire generation and culture. Glad you caught it!!! Welcome to the world of Beatlemania which is still going strong 60 years later!!!😊
Please make a reaction to a Danish rap number called: Djämes Braun - Fugle (Official Music Video)
(You can skip the intro monologue and start at 0.40).
exactly what is her "standing there" and under what circumstances did he see it ?
Wonder who was the Band setting up in back??
The band was The Tel-Stars. They were a Swedish Jazz band that also played Rock music. They served as the house band for “Drop In”.
The other singers gathering together in the back were the Swedish Jazz Pop vocal group, Gals And Pals. They focused on vocalizing without singing any words in any language, so they would be marketable across Europe. They were a good vocal group in the early-1960s.
I was thirteen saw them in my home town NE England the night President Kennedy was assassinated 🥺🥺
Oh, I see the mayonnaise behind your head now. Someone was commenting about it in another video
John's microphone was set a bit too loud.
uh....why only one headset on?
Dude, how about the Dave Clark Five, their Hits, >>> Glad all over, Bits and Pieces,>>>>Over and Over,>>>Because,>>>>Catch us if you can.
We need Peter Jackson to use his AI to remix all the live songs so they don’t sound terrible.
They made it okay for men to grow hair past their ears, which became the norm all the way until the early 80s. Note the hair length of the band behind them, which was normal for the entire preceding 6 decades.
The audio on this does not do it justice, they were playing much better than what you could hear.
Yes, you can barely hear George's guitar here. But no bands back then had a guy sitting at a mixing desk in the auditorium - they had to trust to their own ears and hope they got it right. Not easy when girls in the audience were screaming away at full throat.
John's mic is too high 🫠
Obviously this is live & the audio isn't that good & Johns backing vocal is a bit over-powering but you get the gist of their popularity. The studio version was remastered in 2023 & is worth a listen.
They’re great live but you’d get a better mix and better performances listening to the studio version.
As fresh and vital it sounds to your modern ears, it’s difficult to convey how radical it sounded to people in the early 60s who were used to hearing crooners, strings and horns.

I feel sorry for the band that had to follow them on stage
The Beatles were the last band on this show. Everyone else was gathering together to sing the “Drop In” theme song at the end of the program.
Just 17 huh.
John's harmony vocal is a bit off in this live version.
As if, contrary to previous comments, the Beatles were capable of recording anything bad
Your enthusiasm is terrific, but you still don’t understand the difference between The Beatles (with James Paul McCartney, June 18, 1942 - September 11th, 1966) and The Cheatles (with William Wallace Shepherd, starting with “Sgt. Pepper’s…” in 1967. The first band featured 4 Beatles, while the second band featured 3 Beatles + 1 Cheatle. 🔭🔬🍸
John's mike sounds waaay too loud. This song is Paul leading and John in the back harmonizing. This is definitively not the version you had to hear for the first time.
If you are going to listen to good music, listen to studio recordings.
Yeah....STUDIO VERSION PLEASE! The levels on this were really bed. John was WAY too forward. Bad audio quality too.
I ALWAYS PREFERRED THE ROLLING STONES INSTEAD OF THE BEATLES.
George’s solo is ruined cuz his amp isn’t hooked up🥲😔🥲
This song is full of energy. too bad the sound was not that good. you couldn't even hear George's guitar solo. But yes, you are correct in that the energy The Beatles had in their live performances was what created Beatlemania.There was nor other band at the time that could compete with The Beatles energy and talent. Try to listen to the studio version of this song.
The sound mixing technology for television broadcasting was very primitive in 1963. If you watch The Beatles perform “Long Tall Sally” after this song, the sound engineer wised up, and turned up George Harrison’s guitar volume up as high as possible for his guitar solo.
First time hearing this song?..🤔..and you are how old? .. what? ..you never listened to the radio before?.. don't bullshit.
The Beatles were great till John Lennon started his snippy ways.. then he brought yoko Ono in
Lennon’s drug use was responsible for his erratic behavior late in the band’s history.
She enriched the later Beatles sound with her mellow backing vocals
This sounded like crap. It's not even a good live version. Listen to the studio recording of this to hear what the excitement was really about. This was the first song on the first album, and it stands as one of their best.
After 3 seconds I could tell it was total CRAP. You need to go back and do the studio versions!
@@elizabethfranco1284 It's not even good sounding for crap! 😁
John's mic was louder than Paul's and the harmonies were ruined. Too bad. I think whoever set up the sound system is to blame.
kinda agreed
@@KatakiHoby I'm glad you said 'kinda'. I love seeing this video. It's the Beatles. What do you want?
I think the point here is that someone's hearing this version of the song for the first time instead of the studio version is unfortunate.
Great reaction!!!
