  • porca troia!!!!

  • Malviaje

  • John Lennon is GOD.

  • Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

  • Because the world is round, it turns me on. Because the world is round. Because the wind is high, it blows my mind. Because the wind is high. Love is old, love is new. Love is all, love is you. Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry. Because the sky is blue.

  • This song should calm just about any beast :)

  • Because its the beatles

  • love is old, love is new. all you need is love.

  • if you are not a robot, you will enjoy this version of because tremendously:

    watch?v=1mycNuuJalA

  • my favorite Beatle song.. hypnotic and beautiful.

  • According to Lennon, "Because" was inspired by Ludwig van Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata". "Yoko was playing Beethoven's 'Moonlight Sonata' on the piano ... I said, 'Can you play those chords backwards?', and wrote 'Because' around them. The lyrics speak for themselves ... No imagery, no obscure references."

  • I prefer the cover made by Alice Cooper...

  • the video is awesome...

  • Great new vision on *Because*...The song is so classic that everyone should make a video version of it!

  • Love is old, Love is new, Love is all, Love is you...

  • The Beatles took Moonlight Sonota, and played it backwards, and then sang. it's so cool!

  • congratulations, youve made the worst music video in the history of man

  • this is my favorite beatles song

  • makes me sad see beatles vid's on youtube has lower views than todays clips, like lady gaga and all that bullshit

  • I always loved this song so much!! Great to hear it

  • Impresionant. Incredible.

  • (@){++++++++++++

  • this sing is..........

  • This is a very nice video for the song.

  • How much perfect can it be?=|

  • Go listen to Moonlight Sonata Reversed, it is Beethoven's song reversed sounds very much like this.

  • @13Avian13 Yeah John built the song around those chords reversed

  • @nbamanga

    Huh, that is pretty cool. Both great songs anyways.

  • è bellissima questa canzone <3

  • The combination of voices equals that of good musical moments of The Beach Boys

  • te quedó super original el video...te felicito!..soy fanática de ésta canción que es una de mis fav. de Los Beatles..es tan melancólica!!..ahhhh..me encanta!!..es perfecta!! :)

  • ONE OF THEIR BEST SONGS.

  • This makes me wanna take drugs more.

  • This is what silence sounds like

  • What an incredible work of art. Thanks, nowhereman.

  • Interesante!, como no hay video para este magnifico tema, hiciste un buen trabajo.

  • me encanta

  • love the electronic harpsichord. never knew such a thing existed until i heard this song...

  • or a polyphonic stylophone ;)  haha :P

  • @firerose12 i think it's a moog synth being used in this song but there could also be an electric harpsichord.

  • @twinflame93 oh yeah maybe... still a great sound though!

  • @twinflame93

    The song starts off with a Baldwin electric harpsichord, the moog comes in towards the end of the song

  • @ManfredDeJesus just checked on wiki and your right it does start with an electric harpsichord with george over dubbing the moog later. the moog was an inspired addition to abbey road with it's greatest effect seen in the white noise at the end of "i want you" although it also adds some nice textures to "here comes the sun"

  • You made beauty.

  • the begginng part of this video reminds me of magritte's false mirror.

  • Yep, it really looks like it

  • it´s turn me on

  • Congratulations nowhereman30, beautiful song and videoclip :- ))

  • If this song isnt on The Beatles Rock Band i will cry. BEATLES RULE!!!! favourite song

  • i totally agree

  • is it for real? I haven't checked yet

  • its not. but you'll be able to get it on october 20. i think.

  • @vidman950 it is; you just have to download it.

  • tout simplement magique...mais j'ai un faible pour la version a capella!

  • Fucking awesome

  • Tout en douceur...

  • i can't help but listen to this song and think of american beauty

    god i love that movie and adore this song

  • I completely agree. American Beauty is such an amazing movie & this song is just a masterpiece in itself!

  • Always liked this one. Such a profound cosmic feeling. One of their last real group efforts. As if they realised that it was really over.

  • magic...........

  • thankyou uploader - lovely visuals - delightfully "sideways" .

  • Certainly put some work into this...should try to do one to Savoy Truffle.

  • this vid is kinda dumb. nothing intertlocks, its jst random sequences put together with no common tie, just things the author thought were "cool"

  • and what's wrong with that?

  • Beautiful is the right word... Extremely beautiful song <3

  • So beautiful...

  • the video would be decent with the man with redhair flying into the clock, wtf did he come from.

    the song is amazing though

  • Yeah, this video is terrible for this song... I just play the video to hear the wonderful song and scroll down so I can't see the video. haha. This song is too simple and perfect to even need a video. Nothing else is needed to go with this song. It's perfect and stands by itself.

  • great song. the cover by alice cooper and the beegees is actually very good aswell. i heard it first on an alice cooper box set so thought i'd check out the original version. in my opinion they are both pretty good

  • actually its not bs. yoko was told to play it in reverse and thats how it happened...jackass ha

  • I guess I didn't watch that interview of john or yoko.... no reason for all the "jackass" thrown around on youtube these days. douchebag. hah

  • Perfect, simple poetry. I love lyrics that make sense in more than one way.

  • I love the voices. Beautiful touching song.

  • this song is AMAZING! just and simply beautiful! angels voices!!!

  • the intro reminds me of I want you (She's so heavy)

  • si dicen que es la sonata matutina de beethoven y los beatles juntos es una obra maestra

  • Is this beatles???

  • No. It's Jesus.

  • lol

  • lol

  • lol

    random and funny respond

  • Talvez umas das melhores músicas do maior album da história: Abbey Road

  • beautiful song!I love it!!!

  • this song and video are absolutly amazing, especially while high

  • Because I LOVE IT

  • great song

  • beatles chord progressions like these make a person just want to give up music. like any of us ever stood a chance, hah.

  • so true!!

  • actually just read that these chords are beethoven's "moonlight sonata" backwards. Pffft, so much for their brilliance lol.

  • haha well can we blame them beethoven was brilliant too lol

  • Pretty genious for figuring out that a Beethoven song BACKWARDS would make an equally beautiful song. But, I think that rumor you heard is all BS.

  • SOrry bud, but Lennon said it in an interview. Ono was playing sonata on he piano, and john asked he rto play it backwards. It's not exactly sonata backwards, but it laid the foundation. Jackass.

  • Why, the "Jackass" at the end of your response? It sounded like a prettty reasonable explanation.... and then "Jackass" for no reason. Haha. Seriously, youtube people always feel like they have to add something like that at the end of anything they write...... Douche bag.

  • Yeah I totally agree, everyone on youtube feels like any comment is a personal insult that requires one in return for some reason. Motherfuckin cocksucker

  • Who's ya callin a cocksucka?!

    Everybody wang-chung

  • Which Beethoven sonata?

  • Moonlight Sonata

  • that was pretty cool. i gotta agree, the red haired guy was a little distracting. Other than that, i was lovin it!!!!!

  • wow, what an uplifting song,cool vid.

  • la verdad q nunca me cuelgo a comentar ningun video pero es de todos los videos no originales de los beatles es el mejor en todo sentido.

    es una pintura con melodia.

    muuuuy zarpado!

    =)

  • i love because and the videeeo!!!!!

    <3

  • This is a great song, and an awesome video, but I think when you put pictures of a dude with pink hair, it kinda ruins the mood. Great animation though.

  • Super clip !!!!

  • Pablo Pablo...

  • i feel high when i listen to this song

  • mangifique =) (l) <3 :p

  • this song is awesome

  • I love the song

  • totally class.. i (L) them

  • Listen to this and then Moonlight Sonata

  • yeah they sound the same in the beginning

    but ther is a great difference once it gets into the verses of this song

  • mhmm. what Lennon did was invert the chord progression of the Sonata, and then (adding some notes from the original) built his own song on top of that.

  • o, well doing that made it a great song

  • The Beatles are great! I wish the across the universe cast would do a better job with their songs :(

  • With guitars, with piano, without instruments.. The Beatles were the best.

  • woah.

    is that what it's like to be on lsd?

  • A masters...The Beatles forever.

  • there's something about this song... makes you forget all the hate in the world. it's so peacful

  • the animations on this are good, i liked the smiley face that turned into glasses

    this song is just pure amazing

  • I loved the Beatles already, but after watching across the Universe, i gained a whole new and amazing view on them. =]

    I LOVE THAT MOVIE.

    AND I LOVE THE BEATLES.

    this video is pretty kool also =]

    weird, i like it X]

  • great song great band very inspirational

    trippy ass vid though

  • thanks finally someone that agrees with me.

  • i've been a beatles fan for 15 years, but i'm going to have to agree with you.

    i don't know what it is about evan rachel wood's voice that makes the song so angelic.

  • I've loved The Beatles since I was 5(im 11)

    and I have to also agree with you...most of the ATU songs are better

  • Inspirations for the songs background aside, this is outstanding video work.....well done Nowhereman

  • hope you can check out my rendition of Because.... great video, thanks!

  • this is like the trippiest song ever made! i feel high just listening to it. HAPPY 420!!!

  • This is not Moonlight Sonata backwards, however, Yoko was in the studio with the Beatles and played Moonlight Sonata. John asked her to play it backwards, but it was only inspiration.

  • good song...weird video

  • It IS still undetermined whether the Beatles actually took the Moonlight Sonata and just have Because the backwards version of it. Who cares if it is anyways? I still like this song.

  • This song came out be4 he and Yoko had started dating.

  • wrong. this came out in 1969 on abbey road, john and yoko had been dating for at least a year. in fact the story goes that yoko was playing moonlight sonata and john told her to play the chords backwards, inspiring the song.

  • how do you know which one of the beatles wrote which song

  • I heard about it, John heard Yoko playing Moonlight Sonata on the piano and then they played it backwards then he wrote the song

  • you are true. that's the story.

  • creepy lol subliminl messaging is SO COOL but it scares me :P

  • theres actually a book called a hard days write. explains the lyrics and story behind every beatles song. See if your local library has it mine does

  • well if you have sound recorder on your computer like most computers do, you can record the song for this and listen to it in reverse.. it obv doesnt match but it does sound somewhat familiar. im pretty sure moonlight sonata inspired then to write this.. when yoko was playing it on the piano.

  • In this great John Lennon´s song the Beatles back to vocal harmony again, like in the early days...years later Queen and others trying to do the same..

  • Yes it is the same key with moon but it was favorite composition o yoko ono palying all day

  • It's interesting because Moonlight Sonata backwards is this song. I love it!

  • I just noticed that. Good ear. Love this song. :)

  • Moonlight Sonata backwards is not this song, have you ever listened to Moonlight Sonata backwards?

  • have YOU? I just played it my own piano, and it is quite similar; the progression of notes and stuff..

  • I read Lennon's playboy interview and he said he got the idea from listening to Yoko play the moonlight sonata backwards and they (Beatles) kinda messed with it a bit

  • Are the same chords.

  • The Beginning sounds a little like Radiohead's 'A Wolf at the Door'.

  • more like radiohead's a wolf at the door sounds like the beatles...

  • because i love the sound of this song it makes my head go round

    ahhhhhhhhahhhahhhhhahhhhhahh

    haha added another verse

  • amazing songgg.

  • Great song.

    The animation is interesting. I dont understand its significance to the video, and it seems a bit random, but its interesting. I wouldnt mind an explanation from the artist that made it.

  • i have this song... its such a good song its perfect with the harmony and all

  • Beautiful verses. Psycho-hella-good music!

  • The greatest voices in music history

  • i just crying...eternity...

  • i read on interenet that this song is the beethoven`s sonata No. 14 (moonlight)the other way around. At first didnt believe it but then i analyzed it, and its true.

  • i LOVE the beatles. i loved the intro so much..the guy crying and the tear. my favorite part it the world peace thing though.

  • hate the vid love the song

  • Tá do Caralho!

  • Ok Beatles fans. Part of this song was also used by an unsigned rap artist "NiQ" in the 50 Cent/YouTube On The Rise Rap contest. The track is called "Blow My Mind", something similar to this song is heard during the chorus. Check it out on my channel(Click on my name in blue above), let me know what you think with a Rating and Comment. Thanks.
