  • I'm 15 and I love the Beatles. Like come on! What is not to love about them! I wish I was born when all of the Beatles were alive so I could meet them. ): I do have to say this is one of the best covers. I watched Across the Universe and fell in love with the movie. <3

  • @JamieIsADino212 shut the fuck up

  • @keeppureintentions Um who the hell are you to tell me to "shut the fuck up", Like really I was just sharing my thoughts on this amazing cover. You don't have to be a jerk and tell me to shut up. If you don't like what I have to say then move on and read/ listen to something else. You don't have to put your 2 cents into my thought I shared. Thank you.

  • I love this song...even though they wrote the song when they were high.

  • @SofiaLovesCupcakes I don't understand why the words "even though" are in that sentence.

  • 11 people go to bannana trees

  • why dont u strange people listen to the original. its like fucking glee..

  • @ilovegoonbas92 why do you come listen to the cover? I like both versions, their voices both give it a bit of a different vibe.

  • he is obviously talking about acid.

  • @davheromany He actually isn't talking about drugs at all. This song is about confusion and frustration (the verses) and the chorus is about escaping into the childlike world where nothing matters and having nothing to worry about.Jude is on the edge of a breakthrough in his artistic career while also retreating from his worries (Lucy, the war). This whole scene is layered with symbolism and has a deep meaning behind it. :)Hope I didn't bore you to death, but I couldn't help myself.

  • @TheFallOutGirl122924 which is pretty much drugs.

  • @TheFallOutGirl122924 actually the song is about the Vietnam War. You would know this if you knew that one of the areas for fallen soldiers is called the Strawberry Field. If you think about it because one of the singers is a civilian and the other is a soldier so its from the different points of view

  • @TheFallOutGirl122924 Oh and he smoked weed in the scene, I know that smoke.

  • Living is easy with eyes closed...

  • Let me take you down 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields, Nothing is real, and Nothing to get hung about, Strawberry Fields Forever, ♥

    Always, no, sometimes I think it's me, But you know I know when it's a dream, I think, er, no I mean, er, yes, But it's all wrong, That is I think I disagree,

  • @TheKaitebug12 Nothing is true everything is permitted.

  • Let me take you down 'cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields, Nothing is real, and Nothing to get hung about, Strawberry Fields Forever, ♥

    Strawberry Fields Forever ♥

    Strawberry Fields Forever" ♥

    "Strawberry Fields Forever ♥" - Across The Universe ♥

  • @lukeboaro1 I was kidding =P

  • @HinasintCompany hehe =)

  • first time i watched this movie i cried.... not sure why but i did and this scene made it sad and happy cry...

  • i like this song good job

  • 10 people like snosberries 

  • ^^ i like it wiii

  • man i just love the music playing before the singer sings it just sounds so good but idk how to explain kinda sad but happy feeling ya know!

  • In context with the movie, I feel this song is about fighting a war withing yourself, far more bloody than the ones around you. It's about the loss of love and the emptiness around you. It's just you and this incredible pain.

    All you want to do is drift away to the loveliness of an old country strawberry field, but even that old comfort turns into a war tactic.

  • This song does so much for me.

    and i cant believe the 10 who dont like this song? i understand different music tastes, but this song, it's so amazing and fufilling in so many ways. i just dont get it.

  • i clicked on this video expecting the original, this is a good version

  • I like strawverries.

  • It's miraculous that this version is actually MORE spaced out than Lennon's!

  • Typos happen. No need to apologize. Thanx for posting this for us. You are very kind indeed. °:°

  • 10 people don't like strawberry fields.

  • its strawberry feilds forever

  • @avrilrocks1200 :) lol no it isnt.

    you're not very good at spelling x

  • @PixiePr0ducti0ns lol yeah i failed at spelling strawberry fields forever but no i know that song like the back of my hand it is by the beatles lol my dad listens to them like all the time

  • 10 people are fans of Justin Bieber..

  • Jim has such an amazing voice...

  • Don't capitalize every word.....

  • I'm listening to this while eating strawberries!!! :)

  • did yinz know that critics thought that putting this song on their record would ruin their careers because nobody would like it. But look at it now.

  • a song about peace great

  • right now....i would rather be in strawberry fields than in summer school

  • @gabzazza but strawberry fields actually refer to a bloody battle field... unless thats your point lol

  • this song makes me wet *

  • I fucking love this band.

  • @HarpoonHere There Is No Band It's From A Movie, But It Was Originally By The Beatles. And I Think You Mean The Beatles As "this band" But You Should Say "The Beatles."

  • Jim Sturgess is so talented.

  • @WhiteMagey

    Mmm.. I dunno. The song is actually about a house that Lennon used to live in with his Auntie.

  • @heero171, While I sort of agree, I also disagree. The plot may have been a bit choppy and inconsistent but the actual content and filming was great. The music was done beautifully and the actors were excellent. Loved this film. one of my favourites

  • I love this movie! And this song! the british accent just makes it even better <3

  • this parts soooo sad :(

  • To me this film was a miss. Most musicals have original music and include established groups/songs depending on how appropriate it is.

    For this movie, it just seemed like they forced a bunch of Beatles songs in and try to form a plot around them like they were making it up as they went.

    IDK, they could have done a lot with it and I'm not saying it's god awful or anything... just a little disappointing.

  • @heero171 i disagree.

  • im singing to this and eating grapes.....i feel like im cheating on the song!

  • best movie ever. musically brilliant and it will grow up with you, everytime you watch you will see something new... the movie doesn't change (nor the drugs if you did them/do them), you do. and you should be proud of it!!

  • @LuftTim I watch the moive most every night hahah I love it it is number one on my favorite moives list right above Donnie Darko

  • i've never seen this movie =(

  • @HadesLordofDeath you should. itas a real gear picture. :D

  • OMG I HEART BEATLES

    

  • i understand how hard it is to be someone. thats why i want to go to strawberry fields.

    forever

  • oh jim, love him and the way he sings

  • The people who disliked this are tripping.

  • This movie makes me emotional.. I clapped in the theater! love the remake of all these beautiful songs.

  • three words: best. movie. ever.

  • Comment removed

  • 9 peoples' eyes are closed!

  • The Beatles did it better but i still love it!

  • love this song!!!!!!!!!!!

  • OMG !! --" Beatles <3 not that !

  • I am a bug beatles fan my brother is i think even the beatles woudl be honord to have this moive with all there song. even if they are changed the same message still gets across. Its is also a diffrent stly and they liked diffrent and new they would love and exsept this other people should learn to also

  • The Beatles were very inspired musicians and prophets, and this song is evidence of that fact. Search "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then on the main page of the contest, open The Present and read the section about The Beatles. After you read it, you will be able to perceive the hidden messages in Beatles' songs.

  • I like both the original and this version also.

    Great song!

  • 8 people cried when they heard this, and the tears ruined their laptops.

  • 6 people dont want to be taken to Strawberry Fields.

  • @museloverrr21395 No , 6 People Just Like the Beatles Better .

  • This music is still a strong part of my life; The Beatles wrote some of the most amazing and inspiring songs I've ever heard, and Across The Universe made a beautiful story with it. Thank You so much for keeping good music alive and sharing with others <33 :3

  • i can listen to this song EVERYDAY!!!! just LOOOVEEEE it <3 <3 <3 <3

  • this part depresses me. but i still like it. its sad how lucy crys when she sees jude :(

  • reminds me of vietnam

  • i love the movie across the universe!!! both versions r good!!

  • ...

  • You do not have the right lyrics.

    Or spelling for that matter.

    Don't do a video involving lyrics if you don't know them :/

  • i have to agree with some of you that this soundtrack is better than the originals. only in sound quality, because think about it. this is from 2007. the beatles wrote and recorded their songs in the 60s. so i mean there both good. GO BEATLES :D

  • pretty cool version but why is it missing a verse?

  • Better then the orginal !

  • I love this song. He was a really good singer!

  • I love this song. He was a really good singer!

  • this was my moms fav song. RIP mommy.

  • @sharpiesmiles Sorry for your loss

  • Such a good movie! Such a good song! I still love the original too tho!

  • lovee itt <3

  • I like the Beatles version better

  • If you like The Beatles, you might like Bullfrog Bullya's music

  • I am a die hard fan and when i found out that this movie came out i was like" eh they will do a shitty job" but i fell in love with this movie and the songs are just incredible on how they mixed the originals and made it modern~ its just fantastic!(:

  • lyrics are a little off no offense

  • i love both versions but i think this guys voice is sexier therefore more enjoyable 2 listen 2 :)

  • I agree this is better than the Beatles' version, sorry:)

  • Beatles!!! way better!

  • I loved tht movie soooo much and i REALLY hate musicals.....so tht means alot....

  • This song is my favorite one i could listen to it all the time

  • I love the Beatles and Across the Universe <3

  • i wanna go to the strabery field forever to live in peace and sing whith jhon lenon

  • @VictorFortier "said the wizard of spelling."

  • SFF is one of the defining works of the psychedelic rock genre. For a cover, eh, its alright i guess, but it didnt really captured the feel like the original. the psychedelic feel.

  • The best song!

  • @ChemblieandCheese : I disagree with you. I do like these versions a lot but nothing beats the classic sound of The Beatles. I do think that the songs that were covered in Across The Universe had way more feeling and emotion behind it. But like I said, Nothing really beats the classics. The Beatles are the best, and I do think the whole cast of Across The Universe did justice to them. It was a job well done. :)

  • love this song to bits

  • this was how this song should have been done.

  • I love this version of this song! The Beatles version is great too! But this one is really cool!

  • Oh my goodness me..... Beatles version THOUSAND of MILES better..... NO question!!! The atmosphere they created on the track is INCREDIBLE... even today it sounds so fresh and amazing.......

  • Oh my goodness me...... The Beatles version THOUSAND of MILES better... simple as that..........

  • Hey listen man, it doesnt matter who sing's it, as long as it sounds good, the origins are understood, and the words are pretty much the same? I find it justified. Just the same though, there are some songs atu butchered from the beatles. I.E - BlackBird. Too squeaky.

  • JUDE *_*

  • nothing to get hung about, strawberry fields forever. :)

  • Strawberry Penis Forever!!!! lol its a long story.....

  • mmm, favourite♥

  • The Beatles are 32564694213548746216874612 times better :)

  • BEST MOVIE EVER I CAN WATCH IT MANY TIMES A DAY!! SIMPLY THE BEST I LOVE HIS VOICE TOO!

  • Wtf, This vid is not associated with Twilight (not bad movie btw) but with Across the Universe, also GREAT movie! So the picture of the vid is from the movie ATU..

    <3 it!

  • LIVING IS EASY WITH EYES CLOSED

  • @xmelissa801x I agree, you're quite the philosopher, major in the field of metaphysics?

  • I am not trying to piss off any beatles fans, but I like these versions of these songs better than the originals. I dislike the old recording style that the beatles use.

  • @ChemblieandCheese its allright many people do but u are free to like this better than the beatles ...i juss hate retards who say beatles a a lot better who the fukk cares???! anyways i agree with u

  • @ChemblieandCheese- yeah,,but i don't totally agree with you,,because now a days is more high technology, if the beatles are using this new technology for recordings, maybe their records are good, am i right? But Don't forget they are original...

  • @ChemblieandCheese

    Coming froma huge Beatles fan (myself), I think that's a okay.

    You like whatever you like :)

  • @whereswaldozz good point ;)

  • @ChemblieandCheese lol but without the original there is no remix ;)

  • @ChemblieandCheese saying anything against the beatles will piss them off (just to point that out lol)

    to me, I like teh classics, but I like these versions cause it shows that the beatles r still love in this generation of crap ass music lulz

  • @ChemblieandCheese yea i'm kinda the same but i respect the beatles recordings. we like these recordings cause it's alot cleaner and sharper than the original recordings.

  • @ChemblieandCheese i agree, theyre the next best thing to remastered/ rerecorded versions by the beatles. i wish they did every song that the beatles ever did, hahaha :P maxwell silver hammer with jim? i think yes.. haha

  • @ChemblieandCheese meh lennon didnt like how a few of there own songs were recorded so its alright

  • @ChemblieandCheese

    seconded

  • @ChemblieandCheese same here and this guys voice is beautiful

  • @ChemblieandCheese why?? Why I mean why!? What the hell why is everybody doing comparisons by originial songs and covers(or contrarily)? You all, you can't! we're talking about ART!! Do you understand? This film is not saying "hey Beatles, do you know what, our actors sing better than you did" absolutely not! You must put inside your heads that this film is trying to be narrated by the beatles! without the beatles the film would not exist and so you absolutely can't say this is better than this!

  • @coldbell1

    Just because the Beatles were first doesn't mean they were the best. I love the Beatles. But due to the fact that these covers are better recorded and the voice talent/reworking of the songs is improved, it makes me like them more. Simple as that. I appreciate what the Beatles did for music. But That was 50+ years ago.

  • @ChemblieandCheese Agreed. What you just said is taboo. The Beatles were great song writers, not good singers. Maybe McCartney and Star by themselves...

  • @irvingklaw57 "not good singer"?

    Okay, .. -does not compute-

    They have beautiful voices.

    :|

  • @ChemblieandCheese well dude, they didn't have many options, did they? They recorded in the 60's. There was no awesome recording equpiment. Now, if all the members were still alive and willing, I'm sure the fans could coax them to make a more modern version of their songs, not unlike these.

  • @ChemblieandCheese Phew,I thought it was just me. lol I respect the Beatles for their contribution to music that even allowed Across the Universe to be made. I must agree, that there is something about the way these tracks sound on the movie that I too prefer.

  • @ChemblieandCheese me too because they bring these songs back to life and make people remember the beatles even more

  • @ChemblieandCheese agreed agreed, its better for our generation

  • @ChemblieandCheese lets take you the strawberry fields forever JK I AGREE THE BEATLES WILL LAST FOREVER THIS WAY

  • @ChemblieandCheese This is exactly what i was thinking!

  • @ChemblieandCheese Yah I agreee. But I still like the old versions just a bit better, but I love the movie across the universe

  • @ChemblieandCheese i agree. but you have to thank the beatles for their music.

  • @ChemblieandCheese well the beatles werent using the technology were using so ur last sentence is flawed

  • @TLOZMT Yeah, and I like the technology we use over what they used back then. It's not flawed, it's an opinion.

  • @ChemblieandCheese u made it sound like they had a choice

  • @ChemblieandCheese btw sorry if it seems like im being mean...im working on my arguments for my class because i suck at it . sorry haha

  • @TLOZMT Well they're no context in my comment that would purposely lead to you thinking that way.

  • @ChemblieandCheese Very mature and brave statement, I still like The Beatles better than most of the covers, anyway props to you lol

  • @ChemblieandCheese You are such an ingnorant

  • @franpag How? Because I have an opinion. It would be ignorant if I had never heard the Beatles' version, but I have heard both.

  • @ChemblieandCheese on some songs I agree, but on most the originals are better........ATU did amazingly on all of them

  • @ChemblieandCheese i agree but not for all of them they ruined helter skelter and come together

  • @ChemblieandCheese Not offensive at all. I can see why people would say that. I personally like certain songs better the original way, suck as this song, but like, revolution, I agree with you.
