He definitely was. I met them all after a concert and was picked by their handlers to go backstage. I refused the drinks and marijuana. It became clear to them I wasn't up for sex with any of them. Ringo actually spent 30 minutes talking to 16 year old me. He was genuinely interested in my thoughts on the music and the stage atmosphere. I left soon after because it was getting crazy.
They didn't normally dress that way. That's their Sgt. Pepper album. (Check out the movie Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band, inspired by the Beatles album starring Peter Frampton & the Bee Gees playing Beatles' music.) I once heard a Harvard musicologist say that the Sgt. Pepper album marked the point where Rock went from being not just tribal/ritual dance music and became a legitimate art form. It was revolutionary. No one had ever heard anything like it. Every form of music was affected by and grows from what the Beatles did. They lead the growth of a generation by mirroring changes in culture and society, challenging norms, exploring psychedelics and Eastern religion. They opened their minds and ours with them.
@@Morgaine Don't discount the reciprocal influence between the Beatles and the Beach Boys.

Nope, not one of the biggest groups in the whole world. The Beatles are the biggest selling music artist of all time, and nobody else even comes close. Bigger than Michael Jackson, bigger than Elvis, bigger than Rhianna, bigger than Madonna, bigger than any music artist that ever breathed air and walked the face of this earth. Nobody even comes close to their record sales. Do a quick google search and you'll see what I'm talking about. Great reaction! Peace
Careful, it almost seems like you're trying to conflate popularity with quality and the two things are very different. In the Beatles case I would agree with you. However, Garth Brooks is the second biggest selling artist and there's no way on earth I'd say he's the second best artist of all time.
Those are marching band costumes that the Beatles were wearing... They were promoting an album in 1967 called "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"... which marked a change in the Beatles' image. They grew mustaches... longer hair... and ditched the matching suits that they used to wear, for colorful marching band costumes... so that they looked the part of "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". At the time, the Beatles were tired of the image they had marketed since 1962 - the 'mop top' haircuts... matching black suits... and their beat rock combo sound that made them the biggest rock band in the world by 1964... By 1966, the crowds on tour were so big and so loud at Beatles concerts that they couldn't hear themselves play live... and audiences couldn't hear them so far away from the stage... Frustrated by the constant barrage of public attention, the Beatles ended their touring career in '66 and took some time off. By that year, the music industry had flooded the public w/ British bands that emulated and looked like The Beatles - bands like The Rolling Stones... The Animals... The Yardbirds ... The Who ... The Kinks... etc. In 1967, The Beatles announced a new album "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"... and introduced a new psychedelic sound that was experimental and trippy... This was music created in the studio for listening, not for playing live. They also released the single 'Strawberry fields forever'... and the trippy song unveiled a new Beatles image that had left their fans confused - mustaches... long hair... colorful outfits... It was a radical change for The Beatles in every way. It was a shock to their fans seeing the new image in 1967 but the album took off like a rocket and became one of their most successful and iconic albums... They followed it up w/ the double LP self-titled 'white album' which is considered one of the greatest records of all time... The Beatles promoted their later albums w/ music videos and TV appearances... They never toured again before they inevitably broke up by 1970 and the 'Fab 4' went their separate ways...
I heard a goofy story that while on a plane ride eating a meal, Paul was asked by a roadie to pass the salt & pepper… but Paul thought that he said “Sargent” pepper, and that’s how their new persona was born!
I never really took to the Beatles, nor this new images. It would take until the 1970s for the likes of the Moody Blues to realise that making music with your label but with looser ties and all committed and allowed individual projects and band working together releases that gave less hostile (and more money for band , less for lawyers?) to show how to work in the industry when creating Threashold under Decca. Of course for the Beatles changes/argueable wrong management didnt help, but the creativity carried on, even if I found this particular song nonsense (but then I liked the nonsense of Edward Lear!)
There's a moment in the video, where John points and says "you say good bye," and the video cuts to the boys in their old Beatles suits, waving good bye, as though announcing their old image leaving, and saying hello to the new one.
The drummer, Ringo, is a peach of a man. Paul wrote this song when their assistant manager visited McCartney in his home in 1967 and asked how he writes songs. Paul sat down at a harmonium and told the guy to just say out opposites of what he was saying. The song was pretty much finished in that evening.
George Harrison. Lead guitar. He was the one who the American public took the longest to know/understand back in the 60s. Was more reserved than the others.
Make your daughters listen to this. My daughter and I sing this to each other all the time. Catchy and fun. She loves it… dropping off at school, dropping a tantrum. I drop a lyric and she picks it right up and starts laughing. ❤️✌️
Ringo is a beautiful man, kind and generous!!!!!!!!!!! Very talented. The other Beatle you forgot is George Harrison. He was up on your screen with the long hair when the video finished.
If you really pay attention to the music, Paul's basslines are amazing. The Beatles never put out a bad album, or song. Hello Goodbye was one of their #1 Hits
When my Grands get in my van, they want to listen to the Beatles, my oldest Grand daughter asked one time, while the Beatles were playing, "is that my guy"?, I turned around and said, "who's your guy". She said the guy with the brown coat.😅, her guy is John. ❤
Ringo always was the goofy, clownish one of the group! It's kind of interesting at the end when they're singing ",Hey ya, Hey Aloha". Aloha is a Hawaiian word that's both a greeting and a farewell,in other words a Hello and a Goodbye. And yes, the Beatles wrote genius hit music, always evolving into new sounds and genres.
George Harrison is the one you can't remember who was also part of The Travelling Wilburys. Each of them have their own catalog of music as well. I love/loved them all.
Can’t go wrong with the fab 4 Ringo is left handed, if you notice he only has one drum on his base drum, he set his kit up right handed so his beat is different than right handed drummers
A song that would never be allowed today You can’t do that! The wardrobe they are wearing was on the cover of sgt peppers album and a trippy song from that album A day in the life!
Ringo comes off as the funniest and sweetest of all. I do think he found humor in a lot of situations that being a Beatle found him in. That is the vibe I get from him. If you get the chance, check out the movie he starred in called Caveman. Funny. He met his wife Barbara while making it.
As of 20 years ago, the Beatles had sold a staggering 600 MILLION records worldwide. They each have had mega-successful solo careers, with Sir Paul McCartney selling (with ‘The Beatles’; his group ‘Wings’; and his solo career) ONE. BILLION. RECORDS. ONE BILLION, BP!! A large reason for their astounding success was the songwriting prowess of John Lennon (1940-1980) and Paul McCartney (1942-). They are widely considered one of the best songwriting teams of all time. And why afraid of RINGO? He’s still touring, and he’s 84 years old! My sis saw him in concert in 2022- And she said he was AMAZING. Please. Don’t pass judgment on RINGO. Know that we are blessed to still have two of them with us, (Paul and RINGO) and mourn the loss of both John (who was murdered in December 1980) and George (died of cancer. 1943-2001). Some of the later Beatles songs were composed by George Harrison. You reacted to Tom Petty, Prince and more performing “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”. That was written by George, and that performance was at the induction of George into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist. If you rewatch that performance, you’ll understand a bit more about the context. And you didn’t notice that a young man joined the group, expertly playing guitar. That was DHANI HARRISON, George Harrison’s son and only child-and he looks EXACTLY like his dad… About Lennon and McCartney: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lennon%E2%80%93McCartney?wprov=sfti1
'Revolution', official video, 'Across the Universe', 'The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill', 'Blackbird', 'Oh Darling', 'I Dig A Pony', live on the rooftop, 'All You Need Is Love', live broadcast, 'It's All Too Much', 'The Ballad of John and Yoko' and its B-side 'Old Brown Shoe', 'Savoy Truffle', all worthwhile songs to get a reasonable overview.
LOL Ringo/Drummer is probably the most well adjusted chillest of them all :-D Livin his best life in his 80's and STILL touring. Check out his solo song PHOTOGRAPH.
The name you forgot is the lead guitarist in the middle between Paul and John, George Harrison. Ringo is the one who got along with all of the Beatles. He was the most laid back. All four of them had successful solo careers after they split. Thanks for this reaction. ✌💙✌
I loved how you freaked out over Ringo! Maybe it's because he's a left-handed drummer that I think is playing on a right-handed drum set 😉 Seriously, Ringo has the thickest Liverpool accent, which makes for the most distinctive singing voice, and I'm told he's very charming. The term coined back then was "all the girls love Ringo!". Who wouldn't love the guy who sang "Yellow Submarine" and "Octopuses Garden"? 😉 Btw, he went on to marry former Bond girl Barbara Bach. Check her out.... 😚
Watch Ringo in some of their early live appearances..Ringo is always grinning. He's a cutie! Still going strong in his 80's ..he was tha oldest of the 4...
Listen to "Nowhere Man", "PAPERBACK WRITER", " ELEANOR RIGBY"...I WANT YOU"...there are soooo many! Don't always go for the most obvious. ...all the time.
Hello, Goodbye was recorded on October 2, 19, 20, 25 and on November 2, 1967. This song is on Side B on Magical Mystery Tour album, bro. The recording engineers were Geoff Emerick & Ken Scott. Great reaction and keep making more Beatles songs reactions!!
THE Beatles are my very favorite band of all time. (second is Pink Floyd, third is The Cars) Thanks for this reaction, I will be here for any of your Beatles reactions-every. single. time! 😊
Been a Beatle fan since I first heard them on the radio at the end of 1963. I have never heard anyone ever say what you said about Ringo. Probably the nicest guy in the whole group.
All you need is love live from 1969 when the first satellites went up across the world and artists were broadcasting for the first time. Get back from the last live performance of their's is fire. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
"Is everything they do this catchy?" Yes. Yes it is. As someone who grew up in the 60's and 70s, it's difficult for me to imagine someone not knowing all about the Beatles. They are significant to the history of rock and roll, and music in general. If you go down the rabbit hole of the Beatles, take note of their chronological music style and growth. Their growth as a band parallels the tumultuous world of the 60s. Their songs run the gamut from happy go lucky to religious experimentation, to civil unrest to drug induced craziness, and beyond.
ke9fe1cg21: Good comment! Skipping through the deep, catchy hits that defined my childhood, I'm confronted by an unanswerable question: did trends, social upheavals, & collective consciousness form before The Beatles put them in the music, or did their music etch the ideas in our heads? They always arrived at the same moment, inseparable. These 4 young guys surely carried the weight of prophets and handed us our future.
You are watching The Beatles as their alter ego, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. There is a song of that name and it's also the title of an album where all of the songs are supposedly written and sung by their alter ego band. That whole album is different from those before. But if you ever go down the entire catalog in order by when it was released you'll find that they grow and change often. The original boy band at some point ended up being credited with what many believe was the first metal song ever, Helter Skelter. TRY IT NEXT . Their album titled The White Album has a lot of surprises on it too. I have a list of favorite Beatles songs that would take years to play back to back. I was 11 years old when The Fab four came to America. My parents always watched The Ed Sullivan show and let me watch with them, so I got to see their first TV appearance in the USA and I've been a fanatic ever since. . The next day at school all the girls were talking on the playground about the Beatles and which one of them we were going to marry when we grew up. We were11 and 12 year olds. The thing I think people who came after our generation don't understand is that before the Beatles invaded, what was being played on most radio stations was either the crooners or blues and jazz, depending on what you liked to listen to. There was Elvis and the Big Bopper etc, but that was too old for us. You took my parents, who were both born in 1931, a while to adjust to the new sound. I had to beg my dad to give me radio time when we were on car trips which were often. He listened to country (my dad's brother and my grandad were country musicians). Mom listened to Elvis, and I begged for the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, the Stones and Supremes lol
The Beatles are the Alpha and the Omega. All musicians that came before the Beatles prepared the Beatles. All musicians that came after the Beatles owe their careers to the Beatles.
One of the last Beatle albums to be released, on the 30th anniversary of their break-up, simply had a large "1" on the cover. All 27 songs on the album hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Play the album, you will be amazed.
.George Harrison, the guy in orange is who you forgot. He wrote "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and it was to memorialize him when Prince, Tom Petty and several others including George's young son Dhani got together to honor him. He was also in The Traveling Wilburys with Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynn. George really spread his wings when he got out of Paul's and John's shadows.
I remember them going to India and their guru, I think one of them learned to play the sitar? There . Yes, they did expand their musical talents. Loved those times
4:54- Yes, they were the meaning of " Catchy Song"..more hits than you can shake a stick at. The Rolling Stone/Billboard GOAT LP list has them at number 1 with " Sgt. Pepper's Loneley Hearts Club Band", and at least 5 more in the top 100.Hit-making machines, those 4 lads were.
George Harrison has been my favorite member since I was about 5yo because on the Abby Road album he looks just like my Dad 😂. I mourned him like a family member 😢. Ringo is the one you'd want to hang out with.
I suggest you listen to their albums chronologically. It is sometimes harder for younger generations to get into their early music, but bear with them. Some of their songs were covers, but you will grow to appreciate how they played with harmonies, rhythms, backing vocals, etc. Most of all, you will see the treasures they left us. By the time you start to recognize who's singing on each song, you'll be hooked.
Another great melody from Paul. The rhythm section is descending while the riff is ascending. He was a genius in writing catchy melodies and harmonies.
Richard Starkey aka Ringo Starr, is one of the sweetest people on the planet. Others members are: James Paul McCartney, John Winston Lennon and George Harrison. This song from the Sargent Pepper's album.
In the Beatles movie A Hard Day's Night, they had a massive joke about fan mail. John, George, and Paul got a few letters. Ringo got a whole bag of letters dropped on him.
WOOOOHOOOO!!! LOVE THE BEATLES!!! SO GOOD - and EVERY SONG is a TREAT!! Even the ones you read-off that you knew or had reacted to: look how VARIED they are - and, all of them were GREAT TUNES!! HUGS, BP!!!
How they managed to have so many bangers is still a question so many people ask.I just know,growing up during that era the Beatles were everywhere.They were on the radio and TV and everyone was covering their music(even symphony orchestras were playing Beatles music).
You can't go down a little bit of a rabbit hole with the Beatles. Their stuff is different from one song to the next. AMAZING GROUP! Paul in Blue - still performs to sold out audiences and wrote many of the songs - he and John (in green) were the main writers. George (orange) was the one on a spiritual journey into Buddhism, but many people said he was the one who was sullen and rude. Ringo (drummer) is the one that I have never read a bad word about and seems to be the one who was the peacekeeper. He has his All-Starr Band that brings in top names and they tour to this day and sell out. John was assassinated outside his apartment building when he was 40 years old. Paul and Ringo are my favorites - Paul is very much about his family (First wife, Linda, died of cancer in 1998 - she played keyboard did backing vocals with him after the Beatles broke up and was a member of the group WINGS which Paul formed post-Beatles.
One of my earliest memories is of The Beatles. I was about 3 or 4 and I kept saying 'Yellow Submarine mommy' 😂 Music was, and still is, a massive part of my family. I feel blessed to have been raised with every genre of music. I'm the youngest of 5 (born in '83) so I had all the classic music of the 50s, 60s and 70s from my parents, and got all the 80s from my siblings. When I grew up and moved out, my mom gifted me all of her original Beatles albums as she couldn't stand them anymore 😂 They're probably worth nothing as I played the hell out of them and they're tatty, but they're priceless to me ❤
okay I have to do this. There are so many other songs I know you will love but this one, is a must. "The Beatles have released what's been billed as their "final song". Called Now And Then, it's been 45 years in the making - with the first bars written by John Lennon in 1978 and the song finally completed last year. All four Beatles feature on the track, which will be the last credited to Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr.
You picked a really happy Beatles song accompanied by a "shoe-string budget looking" promo video. It's so refreshing and so much fun to watch!!! Around this time, the Beatles made a number of high concept promo videos for their songs. For example, check out the promo video for "Strawberry Fields Forever". Now don't get me wrong, the song and video are great, but "Hello Goodbye" just feels like an intentional nod to their "we're just having fun and being silly" side. "Hey Bulldog" is another example of this; the Beatles chillin together in a music studio, happily making music. 😊
I’ve never met any of the Beatles but from what others have said about Ringo, he was the most personable one. He does seem to have odd mannerisms at times I think but that is what made me like him the most. Well that and the drums. I loved to watch him play. He smiled a lot and shook his head around as well. They all did that. I think he may have acted up a bit while playing drums because for one, he was already an excellent drummer when they hired him that he probably learned his part fast and well and could act silly if he wanted. Also in those days the drummer, including Ringo was stuck in the back on the floor. Once Ringo and others got drum risers they were more noticeable. Also part of it might be if his sons or daughter were watching that it would make them happy. When the Beatles were having issues in the band Ringo seemed to be the peacemaker or at least listen to them as they vented to him. I don’t know how much of this is true. But the fact that Ringo is friends with many musicians and collaborated with many of them, I tend to think it’s because of his bright personality. One more thing. Ringo had a burst appendix when he was about 9 I think. He almost died from peritonitis after the surgery so he was in hospital for a long time and out of school the rest of the year recovering at home. Then as a teenager he contracted Tuberculosis and was again in hospital for 2 years. They called it a sanitarium in those days. That’s where he started learning how to play drums by tapping on things and listening to recordings. He entertained the younger kids there with his improvised drum playing and I believe that’s where he got his first drum or shortly after he got out. He’s the coolest guy ever in my opinion and with that I’ll stop here. And as Ringo says, “peace and love”. Peace ✌️ ❤
Yes almost everything they wrote, covered, and recorded was a hit!Ringo is the funniest and friendliest of all the Beatles. He was also quite underrated!
Ringo appeared on a 1970 episode of Rowan And Martin's Laugh In.Ruth Buzzi,in her Gladys character asked him"Have you ever been busted?",and he replied"No.Looks like you haven't been, either."😂😂😂😂😂
Wow, talk about going back in time!! I loved this song and The Beatles had so many catchy songs, especially early stuff such as 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand', 'She Loves You', 'Love Me Do', 'Please Please Me' and 'Twist and Shout'. I remember in the 1980s, visiting the Beatles Museum in Liverpool, and I'm sure I saw these costumes that they are wearing here. I'm also pretty sure these were the costumes they wore on the Sergeant Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover! I remember having the two double compilation albums in vinyl, red and blue. The red was their early stuff (1962-1966) , and the blue their later songs (1967-1970).
Ringo, the drummer, was the one who managed to get along with everyone. So it's you. 😅
Ringo is The Beatle you’d actually want as a friend, not to mention a terrific drummer.
The song "Rain" has some of Ringo's best drumming ever.
Yes I agree Ringo was the peacemaker
Ringo is 83 years old and still performing with the energy and spirit of a 30 year old.
Can’t believe Ringo freaks you out. From what I understand Ringo was the most personable person in the Beatles ❤
He definitely was. I met them all after a concert and was picked by their handlers to go backstage. I refused the drinks and marijuana. It became clear to them I wasn't up for sex with any of them. Ringo actually spent 30 minutes talking to 16 year old me. He was genuinely interested in my thoughts on the music and the stage atmosphere. I left soon after because it was getting crazy.
Maybe it's the image of him towering over a kid's drum set. He was always good for a laugh.
Not Thomas the tank engine bro 😂
I think it’s watching a left handed drummer playing on a right handed drum kit looks very odd.
Yeah Ringo was the most easygoing Beatle of all from all the books and articles I've read about them!
Ringo? You be tripping .... Ringo is a good guy - a truly nice man.
Few people notice the drum set gag.
...and he's still performing.

Ringo was the voice that narrated Thomas the tank Engine in the 80’s ..
I forgot about that, he did.
George Harrison...remember "AsMy Guitar Gently Weeps
All Things Must Pass.
George Harrison was deeply spiritual.
‘While My Guitar Gently Weeps’. Not ‘As’…
George Harrison is the name you keep forgetting. “My Sweet Lord” is a solo song from George you’d love.
Not only are The Beatles best-selling music act of all time...each of them was successful in having solo careers after group broke up in 1970.

Ringo is the sweetest, good hearted and the heart of the band for sure. He's all about peace and love.
He beat both of his wives, the second one nearly to death.
Paul McCartney and John Lennon were one of the most prolific and stunningly successful writing duos in perhaps all of known history.

Aloha is a Hawaiian word that's both a greeting and a farewell,in other words a Hello and a Goodbye. And yes, the Beatles wrote genius hit music, always evolving into new sounds and genres.
Ringo the drummer ,the eldest of the 4 and still performing..if you watch old footage of them he always had a big grin...cute!
Try listening to The Beatles In My Life. Absolutely beautiful song. Voted No 1 Beatles song by the listeners to my favourite radio station, Boom!
Lennon's best song, IMO
George Harrison is the one you can't remember who was also part of The Travelling Wilburys. Each of them have their own catalog of music as well. I love/loved them all.
If you want to jog his memory I'd have gone with _George Harrison is the one whose boy was standing behind Prince when he did _*_that_*_ solo_ ;oP
I’m hoping we can get P to react to some TW. Such a group super group. Especially since he’s reacted to almost all of them individually already! 😂😂
Can’t go wrong with the fab 4
Ringo is left handed, if you notice he only has one drum on his base drum, he set his kit up right handed so his beat is different than right handed drummers
A song that would never be allowed today
You can’t do that!
The wardrobe they are wearing was on the cover of sgt peppers album and a trippy song from that album
A day in the life!
Ringo comes off as the funniest and sweetest of all. I do think he found humor in a lot of situations that being a Beatle found him in. That is the vibe I get from him. If you get the chance, check out the movie he starred in called Caveman. Funny. He met his wife Barbara while making it.
As of 20 years ago, the Beatles had sold a staggering 600 MILLION records worldwide. They each have had mega-successful solo careers, with Sir Paul McCartney selling (with ‘The Beatles’; his group ‘Wings’; and his solo career) ONE. BILLION. RECORDS. ONE BILLION, BP!! A large reason for their astounding success was the songwriting prowess of John Lennon (1940-1980) and Paul McCartney (1942-).
They are widely considered one of the best songwriting teams of all time.
And why afraid of RINGO?
He’s still touring, and he’s 84 years old!
My sis saw him in concert in 2022-
And she said he was AMAZING.
Please.
Don’t pass judgment on RINGO.
Know that we are blessed to still have two of them with us, (Paul and RINGO) and mourn the loss of both John (who was murdered in December 1980) and George (died of cancer. 1943-2001).
Some of the later Beatles songs were composed by George Harrison.
You reacted to Tom Petty, Prince and more performing “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”.
That was written by George, and that performance was at the induction of George into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a solo artist.
If you rewatch that performance, you’ll understand a bit more about the context.
And you didn’t notice that a young man joined the group, expertly playing guitar.
That was DHANI HARRISON, George Harrison’s son and only child-and he looks EXACTLY like his dad…
About Lennon and McCartney:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lennon%E2%80%93McCartney?wprov=sfti1
You are forgetting George ( in the middle. ) George is the one who wrote Here Comes The Sun and While My Guitar Gentley Weeps, among many others.
'Revolution', official video, 'Across the Universe', 'The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill', 'Blackbird', 'Oh Darling', 'I Dig A Pony', live on the rooftop, 'All You Need Is Love', live broadcast, 'It's All Too Much', 'The Ballad of John and Yoko' and its B-side 'Old Brown Shoe', 'Savoy Truffle', all worthwhile songs to get a reasonable overview.
LOL Ringo/Drummer is probably the most well adjusted chillest of them all :-D Livin his best life in his 80's and STILL touring. Check out his solo song PHOTOGRAPH.
The name you forgot is the lead guitarist in the middle between Paul and John, George Harrison. Ringo is the one who got along with all of the Beatles. He was the most laid back. All four of them had successful solo careers after they split. Thanks for this reaction. ✌💙✌
I loved how you freaked out over Ringo! Maybe it's because he's a left-handed drummer that I think is playing on a right-handed drum set 😉 Seriously, Ringo has the thickest Liverpool accent, which makes for the most distinctive singing voice, and I'm told he's very charming. The term coined back then was "all the girls love Ringo!". Who wouldn't love the guy who sang "Yellow Submarine" and "Octopuses Garden"? 😉
Btw, he went on to marry former Bond girl Barbara Bach. Check her out.... 😚
Watch Ringo in some of their early live appearances..Ringo is always grinning. He's a cutie! Still going strong in his 80's ..he was tha oldest of the 4...
Listen to "Nowhere Man", "PAPERBACK WRITER", " ELEANOR RIGBY"...I WANT YOU"...there are soooo many! Don't always go for the most obvious. ...all the time.
Solid picks. I’d include Across the Universe too.
Hello, Goodbye was recorded on October 2, 19, 20, 25 and on November 2, 1967. This song is on Side B on Magical Mystery Tour album, bro. The recording engineers were Geoff Emerick & Ken Scott. Great reaction and keep making more Beatles songs reactions!!
I like to make the comparison of The Big Push as the Beatles each one is different in their own way, but together it’s magic
THE Beatles are my very favorite band of all time. (second is Pink Floyd, third is The Cars) Thanks for this reaction, I will be here for any of your Beatles reactions-every. single. time! 😊
Even to this day their music sounds amazing away ahead of their time and they smashed America Beatle mania was so crazy
Been a Beatle fan since I first heard them on the radio at the end of 1963. I have never heard anyone ever say what you said about Ringo. Probably the nicest guy in the whole group.
All you need is love live from 1969 when the first satellites went up across the world and artists were broadcasting for the first time. Get back from the last live performance of their's is fire. Great reaction as usual my friend and Peace out 🙏 ✌️ ☮️
I love Ringo Octopus’s Garden and I Get By with a Little Help from my Friends. Ringo is a cool guy!
"Is everything they do this catchy?" Yes. Yes it is. As someone who grew up in the 60's and 70s, it's difficult for me to imagine someone not knowing all about the Beatles. They are significant to the history of rock and roll, and music in general. If you go down the rabbit hole of the Beatles, take note of their chronological music style and growth. Their growth as a band parallels the tumultuous world of the 60s. Their songs run the gamut from happy go lucky to religious experimentation, to civil unrest to drug induced craziness, and beyond.
ke9fe1cg21: Good comment! Skipping through the deep, catchy hits that defined my childhood, I'm confronted by an unanswerable question: did trends, social upheavals, & collective consciousness form before The Beatles put them in the music, or did their music etch the ideas in our heads? They always arrived at the same moment, inseparable.
These 4 young guys surely carried the weight of prophets and handed us our future.
Yes, all their songs were catchy and kicked ass in different ways.
this is one of the videos that you can really see Paul playing his guitar left-handed
Greatest tock band EVER... anyone who disagrees is wrong.
It’s a long story but Ringo Starr saved my brother’s life. So we will have no Ringo hate here.
You are watching The Beatles as their alter ego, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely
Hearts Club Band. There is a song of that name and it's also the title of an album where all of the songs are supposedly written and sung by their alter ego band. That whole album is different from those before. But if you ever go down the entire catalog in order by when it was released you'll find that they grow and change often.
The original boy band at some point ended up being credited with what many believe was the first metal song ever, Helter Skelter. TRY IT NEXT .
Their album titled The White Album has a lot of surprises on it too.
I have a list of favorite Beatles songs that would take years to play back to back.
I was 11 years old when The Fab four came to America. My parents always watched The Ed Sullivan show and let me watch with them, so I got to see their first TV appearance in the USA and I've been a fanatic ever since. .
The next day at school all the girls were talking on the playground about the Beatles and which one of them we were going to marry when we grew up. We were11 and 12 year olds.
The thing I think people who came after our generation don't understand is that before the Beatles invaded, what was being played on most radio stations was either the crooners or blues and jazz, depending on what you liked to listen to. There was Elvis and the Big Bopper etc, but that was too old for us.
You took my parents, who were both born in 1931, a while to adjust to the new sound. I had to beg my dad to give me radio time when we were on car trips which were often. He listened to country (my dad's brother and my grandad were country musicians). Mom listened to Elvis, and I begged for the Beatles, Stevie Wonder, the Stones and Supremes lol
And this song was from the magical mystery tour!
The Beatles are the Alpha and the Omega. All musicians that came before the Beatles prepared the Beatles. All musicians that came after the Beatles owe their careers to the Beatles.
St Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band era..therefore the outfits...
Ringo Starr, the drummer was actually always my fav out of all of them. Lol.
They have so many hits to choose from, depends on your mood. Some of my favourites Blackbird, Yesterday, She’s Leaving Home, omg, there’s millions.
One of the last Beatle albums to be released, on the 30th anniversary of their break-up, simply had a large "1" on the cover. All 27 songs on the album hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Play the album, you will be amazed.
Ringo has a huge following, not just cuz John and George are gone either.
Ringo is the nicest guy ever . Everytime i look at him i smile
.George Harrison, the guy in orange is who you forgot. He wrote "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and it was to memorialize him when Prince, Tom Petty and several others including George's young son Dhani got together to honor him. He was also in The Traveling Wilburys with Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Jeff Lynn. George really spread his wings when he got out of Paul's and John's shadows.
They always experimented, very fun back in those days.
I remember them going to India and their guru, I think one of them learned to play the sitar? There . Yes, they did expand their musical talents. Loved those times
@donaldromesbu.....It was George who learned the sitar, he also spent more time in India without the other Beatles.
@antoniawe yeah , I was about 11 or 12 years old when that happened. So yes the memory is vague
The BEATLES ROCK! FOREVER ❤️✌🏻🎶
I have heard that song a hundred times but never seen that video
4:54- Yes, they were the meaning of " Catchy Song"..more hits than you can shake a stick at. The Rolling Stone/Billboard GOAT LP list has them at number 1 with " Sgt. Pepper's Loneley Hearts Club Band", and at least 5 more in the top 100.Hit-making machines, those 4 lads were.
George Harrison has been my favorite member since I was about 5yo because on the Abby Road album he looks just like my Dad 😂. I mourned him like a family member 😢. Ringo is the one you'd want to hang out with.
Ringo is super cool. And you forgot George Harrison. You got all 4. Love the Beatles!!! ❤
I suggest you listen to their albums chronologically. It is sometimes harder for younger generations to get into their early music, but bear with them. Some of their songs were covers, but you will grow to appreciate how they played with harmonies, rhythms, backing vocals, etc. Most of all, you will see the treasures they left us. By the time you start to recognize who's singing on each song, you'll be hooked.
Another great melody from Paul. The rhythm section is descending while the riff is ascending. He was a genius in writing catchy melodies and harmonies.
i was a teenager when the Beatles came on the scene and gave us a wonderful selection of music -- thank you
Richard Starkey aka Ringo Starr, is one of the sweetest people on the planet.
Others members are: James Paul McCartney, John Winston Lennon and George Harrison.
This song from the Sargent Pepper's album.
The Beatles almost always kept everything light and cool. A lot of tongue in cheek.
With Ringo, you should notice his drum kit changing size.
Nobody remembers George Harrison for some reason. Funny he's my favorite Beatle
George was always my sister’s favorite from the first song she heard and saw. I’m a Paul girl…
Thanks, brings back so many memories from the 70's. Congrats on the arrival of the newest member of your family. You are truly blessed!
In the Beatles movie A Hard Day's Night, they had a massive joke about fan mail. John, George, and Paul got a few letters. Ringo got a whole bag of letters dropped on him.
WOOOOHOOOO!!! LOVE THE BEATLES!!! SO GOOD - and EVERY SONG is a TREAT!! Even the ones you read-off that you knew or had reacted to: look how VARIED they are - and, all of them were GREAT TUNES!! HUGS, BP!!!
How they managed to have so many bangers is still a question so many people ask.I just know,growing up during that era the Beatles were everywhere.They were on the radio and TV and everyone was covering their music(even symphony orchestras were playing Beatles music).
Everything they do is great. I recommend Michelle. Seems like only those who grew up with the Beatles remember how beautiful this song is.
One of the biggest mysteries in music is; what makes up the first cord in A Hard Day's Night.
56+ years ago! Decades ahead of everyone else.
You can't go down a little bit of a rabbit hole with the Beatles. Their stuff is different from one song to the next. AMAZING GROUP! Paul in Blue - still performs to sold out audiences and wrote many of the songs - he and John (in green) were the main writers. George (orange) was the one on a spiritual journey into Buddhism, but many people said he was the one who was sullen and rude. Ringo (drummer) is the one that I have never read a bad word about and seems to be the one who was the peacekeeper. He has his All-Starr Band that brings in top names and they tour to this day and sell out. John was assassinated outside his apartment building when he was 40 years old. Paul and Ringo are my favorites - Paul is very much about his family (First wife, Linda, died of cancer in 1998 - she played keyboard did backing vocals with him after the Beatles broke up and was a member of the group WINGS which Paul formed post-Beatles.
I read Paul wrote this as an exercise he could make a hit of the most basic premise as long as the melody and musicality was catchy. He was correct
Ringo played the Conductor in the kids show Shiningtime Station. He introduced Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends every episode.
Peace and love PEACE AND LOVE!
THEY WERE BRILLIANT!!
One of my earliest memories is of The Beatles. I was about 3 or 4 and I kept saying 'Yellow Submarine mommy' 😂 Music was, and still is, a massive part of my family. I feel blessed to have been raised with every genre of music. I'm the youngest of 5 (born in '83) so I had all the classic music of the 50s, 60s and 70s from my parents, and got all the 80s from my siblings. When I grew up and moved out, my mom gifted me all of her original Beatles albums as she couldn't stand them anymore 😂 They're probably worth nothing as I played the hell out of them and they're tatty, but they're priceless to me ❤
okay I have to do this. There are so many other songs I know you will love but this one, is a must. "The Beatles have released what's been billed as their "final song".
Called Now And Then, it's been 45 years in the making - with the first bars written by John Lennon in 1978 and the song finally completed last year.
All four Beatles feature on the track, which will be the last credited to Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr.
The Beatles did what is considered the fist Hard Rock/Heavy Metal song as well "Helter Skelter" of the white album.
Saying goodbye to the “old” style Beatles 🎸✌🏼🍏
You picked a really happy Beatles song accompanied by a "shoe-string budget looking" promo video. It's so refreshing and so much fun to watch!!!
Around this time, the Beatles made a number of high concept promo videos for their songs. For example, check out the promo video for "Strawberry Fields Forever". Now don't get me wrong, the song and video are great, but "Hello Goodbye" just feels like an intentional nod to their "we're just having fun and being silly" side.
"Hey Bulldog" is another example of this; the Beatles chillin together in a music studio, happily making music. 😊
I’ve never met any of the Beatles but from what others have said about Ringo, he was the most personable one. He does seem to have odd mannerisms at times I think but that is what made me like him the most. Well that and the drums. I loved to watch him play. He smiled a lot and shook his head around as well. They all did that. I think he may have acted up a bit while playing drums because for one, he was already an excellent drummer when they hired him that he probably learned his part fast and well and could act silly if he wanted. Also in those days the drummer, including Ringo was stuck in the back on the floor. Once Ringo and others got drum risers they were more noticeable. Also part of it might be if his sons or daughter were watching that it would make them happy. When the Beatles were having issues in the band Ringo seemed to be the peacemaker or at least listen to them as they vented to him. I don’t know how much of this is true. But the fact that Ringo is friends with many musicians and collaborated with many of them, I tend to think it’s because of his bright personality. One more thing. Ringo had a burst appendix when he was about 9 I think. He almost died from peritonitis after the surgery so he was in hospital for a long time and out of school the rest of the year recovering at home. Then as a teenager he contracted Tuberculosis and was again in hospital for 2 years. They called it a sanitarium in those days. That’s where he started learning how to play drums by tapping on things and listening to recordings. He entertained the younger kids there with his improvised drum playing and I believe that’s where he got his first drum or shortly after he got out. He’s the coolest guy ever in my opinion and with that I’ll stop here. And as Ringo says, “peace and love”. Peace ✌️ ❤
The first rock band i got into as a kid. You must check out more of their music.
On your own you should check out their first movie "A Hard Day's Night".. All of their personalities are showcased especially RINGO'S.
The Beatles wrote hit and hit. For several years they always had multiple hits often playing on the radio at the same time.
plus songs they wrote for others
Yes almost everything they wrote, covered, and recorded was a hit!Ringo is the funniest and friendliest of all the Beatles. He was also quite underrated!
Ringo appeared on a 1970 episode of Rowan And Martin's Laugh In.Ruth Buzzi,in her Gladys character asked him"Have you ever been busted?",and he replied"No.Looks like you haven't been, either."😂😂😂😂😂
Trivia...at least it was years ago ..their single"LADY MADONNA" was never on any album!
Wow, talk about going back in time!! I loved this song and The Beatles had so many catchy songs, especially early stuff such as 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand', 'She Loves You', 'Love Me Do', 'Please Please Me' and 'Twist and Shout'. I remember in the 1980s, visiting the Beatles Museum in Liverpool, and I'm sure I saw these costumes that they are wearing here. I'm also pretty sure these were the costumes they wore on the Sergeant Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover! I remember having the two double compilation albums in vinyl, red and blue. The red was their early stuff (1962-1966) , and the blue their later songs (1967-1970).
