The Beatles - She said She said

[gary9324]

early psychedelia by far.

[MrApollosLyre]

Revolver is such an Increible album

[SpaghettiZoSo]

wonderful Ringo's drumming.

[mrgeorge7196]

When Peter Fonda got The Revolver album he knew who they singing about.

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

"I know what it's like to be dead"

[myrtlebox]

"You're making me feel like I've never been born."

I believe these were Georges words to Peter Fonda in LA. Fonda was freaking George out while all were high on acid. George just wanted Fonda to go away.

[paulgad]

@myrtlebox You are correct except for one detail. It was John instead of George that Fonda was pestering.

[myrtlebox]

@paulgad Yeah, I was running off memory from long ago (a bad thing to do). Wiki more or less is what I remember. He was frightening George and annoying John who was trying to get away from him. It was JOHN that said: "You're making me feel like I've never been born." and not George (I had that wrong).

[classicrock4thawin]

john wrote this on acid LOL

[5bisley]

Great job, Ringo!

[Beatlesdrummer94]

@5bisley :)



[MissMadar]

This album shaped by childhood<3

[holylord0147]

This is real FUCKING music every thing you hear today sucks... except Justin beiber... acually fact he sucks balls so um.... screw him.

[Colonsigmoide]

One of the best songs ever

[HoraceLime]

love this album

[RadicalRay100]

Part of when they were making the song: "It was a thoroughly tripped-out atmosphere because they kept finding girls hiding under tables and so forth: one snuck into the poolroom through a window while an acid-fired Ringo was shooting pool with the wrong end of the cue. "Wrong end?" he’d say. "So what fuckin’ difference does it make?"

[bckm54]

@RadicalRay100 hehe...it woulda PWNED if he said "at least I'm playing on the right side of the BALLS..." ;)

[RadicalRay100]

@bckm54 Lol!

[jimi1234567]

wicked track full stop.

[BeatleManiaForver99]

Ringo did REALLY good on drums!

[tomgmaster2]

fuck first time i listened to it and the first 30 seconds i think i ji...d

[Absoluttmusic]

Ringo the great!! How can sounds like that! For me, the best song about the drums....well, the entire song is too fucking good!!!!! I love it!!!! all the time!!!

[xXhorizonXx97]

I thought the songs title said "that's what she said" :p didn't have my glasses on now did I

[josiahivan]

Spotify needs the beatles

[marioluis2008]

¡¡¡Qué tema!!!

[Sibra3libra]

I JUST BLOODY LOVE THIS SONG

[hollaback61694]

thank god that current bands like the black keys cover these old songs, because i really like the beatles, but i would have never have found this if they didn't cover it. it brings new generations to old songs.

[Thecrimson08]

@hollaback61694 indeed man, the last shadow puppets got me into the beatles with their cover of i want you (shes so heavy) i have parents with bad music (y)

[ctrigoso11]

Do you know that this song was inspired on one of the Beatle´s friend, Peter Fonda, who accidentally shot himself in the stomach when he was a boy and his driver tried to help him by taking him to the hospital but the nurses ignored the driver because he was black - Fonda thinks of him as an angel. When in surgery, he died for minutes and finally revived - his heart had stopped 3 X. Later, he was taking an LSD with the Beatles where he told J.Lennon ¨I know what is like to be dead¨ - peaceful.

[3234718]

@ctrigoso11 I heard another story about Dennis Hopper telling John Lennon at an acid party about how he died and came back, and what he saw.

[MegaOffender]

[TeamMastaPr2]

First Beatles song without Paul. It's George on bass.

[Chiboy00]

I wanted to download a song called "she said" by some other band i dont remember who. When i downloaded it, it was this song. At first disappointed. I kept on listening to this song, such an awesome song. i want to cover and record a version of this song

[SirCharlesAMilton]

who the hell is Ashley Tisdale?

[JulesAndVincent54]

This, song for song, may very well be the best Rock album of all time.

[progreadicto]

@JulesAndVincent54 this, song for song, may very well be the best proof that pop music merits fall in compose a melody with a catchy refrain and arrange it with what you prefer (riffs, clasical music arrangments, avantgarde, etc..)

the composition of a rock song is far more complex and original. dont confuse rock with pop please.

anyway i like this song, not a masterpiece, but yes a good one.

[BryceeTB]

@JulesAndVincent54 finally someone agrees revolver is one of the best albums.

[JulesAndVincent54]

@BryceeTB Cool. LOL. It's always nice to find someone with similar taste in music. Thanks...

[MrFrostyCobra]

@JulesAndVincent54

that comment may very well be the best comment of all time!

[JulesAndVincent54]

@MrFrostyCobra You're too kind. Thank you sir. J & V

[chrisg20x]

revolver... best guitar work by george harrison in the beatles!

[SimonThe1st]

RIP Mum.

[MrSlitskirts]

Great song and album cover. I think "Revolver" was one of their best albums apart from 'A Hard Days Night" and "Abbey Road". I think it's been much underrated and I like it more than 'Sgt Pepper" (which is ok).

[lordseshomaru86]

Sorry, I prefer the Black Keys version, even though I don't dislike this version

[TaterMySalad]

@lordseshomaru86 Same. I love the beatles and everything, but I like the Keys version a lot more.

[08stratguy]

thank God the Black Keys made this worth listening to!

[CarpeEthereal]

@08stratguy You clearly suck

[08stratguy]

@CarpeEthereal no, this version of the song clearly sucks. the beatles aren't as good as your mommy told you. now stfu!

[doh344]

@08stratguy now now gents we should not be hateful the beatles were for peace not hate so lets respect them shall we?

[ryandeakin5878]

@CarpeEthereal he clearly dont deserve ears

[BeatlesFanGirl11]

@08stratguy If you don't like this version,why are you listening to it?

[MetrazolElectricity]

That drummer must have had 6 hands to play that good!

[ProducShuns]

@MetrazolElectricity and yet, no one really gave ringo that much credit as a drummer :(

[MetrazolElectricity]

@ProducShuns true. others have been forgotten as well. for example,do you like Huey Lewis and The News? Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically.

[ProducShuns]

@MetrazolElectricity TRY GETTING A RESERVATION AT DORSIA NOW YOU FUCKING STUPID BASTARD

[MetrazolElectricity]

@ProducShuns hahaha amazing scene. other american psycho fans and I are kindred souls. I bet John would have loved that movie.

[666thesnowman]

best tune on the album . great riffs

[HammerFist1970]

Doodle leedle doddley doo.Love that intro!

[ElHombreConDosOjos]

He'll be crapping out soon. He who needs to crap out.

[ElHombreConDosOjos]

The Beatles should've taken a Sabbatical from one another, as have the Stones so many times since 1962.

[SimonThe1st]

George Harrison plays bass as well as guitar on this masterpiece.

[azerty7889]

move from the left to the right and you notice george's eyes following you

[bretoff]

So spacey, so John, so great ......

[Polyfusia]

I wish they'd had another producer. The songs are great, but the recordings are shit. What's with the tinny poor levels on the drums? That's some seriously amateur mixing.

[azerty7889]

@Polyfusia Try the mono version, its much better and THEY HAD GEORGE MARTIN AS A PRODUCER A FUCKING GENIUS

[Polyfusia]

@azerty7889 I disagree. I think George Martin was a garbage producer.

[azerty7889]

@Polyfusia you propably no beatles fan if not why do people call him one of the 5th beatles?

[GrisGrisOnUrDoorStep]

@Polyfusia Yeah I think Geoff Emerick really made a lot of the albums great but George Martin seemed to mostly sit around and boss people around

[jillzi7]

@Polyfusia .....and you are a cock stain

[nish147]

@Polyfusia - It was George Martin, who gave them the freedom to use the Abbey Road studio at their will initially, He was the guy who played the keys on "In my life", he is the guy who plays the mystery intro chord in the beginning of "A hard day's night" along with George Harrison. Go and read "All you need is ears" by Martin, and then blurt out ur opinion.

[TheOneartist]

@Polyfusia Listen to the mono mixes. Those were the mixes The Beatles and George Martin spent their time on. The stereo mixes were rushed afterthoughts required by the record label to market the new technology.

You're right, not until The White Album did The Beatles start churning out good stereo mixes. I agree, before that the stereo mixes were indeed amateur, but so was everyone's. George Martin, Geoff Emerick and John Lennon were the most vocal about the mono mixes being heard.

[buffenbison]

Would just like to point out this was made 45 years ago in 1966 and we are still listening to this in 2011

[macarthur19]

@buffenbison Pretty amazing, isn't it? Can you imagine people listening to the garbage today 45 years down the road? haha not a chance in hell. Classic Rock forty-five years from now will still be the Beatles, Zeppelin, Stones, etc.

[hedonism13]

@macarthur19

I hope you're alive in 45 years.

[AaronLafcadio]

@buffenbison And it is still fresh and good as I first heard as a little boy in 1972...Most popular music iover last 45 years influenced by the Beatles : Listen, one example, Death Cab w/ Beatles in mind

[reptilia5]

@buffenbison Damn straight! The Beatles will live ad infiniutum!

[oeyeyea]

@buffenbison couldve been done yesterday

[Xanaduswells]

@buffenbison 2012* ;D

[burningmatch09]

@buffenbison 2012, actually. January 2nd, 2012. And they're still the GREATEST!

[jordidwdw]

@burningmatch09 and always will be

[saralou624]

@burningmatch09 they will always be the GREATEST =)

[MySeltaeb]

@burningmatch09. Fxxxxxg amazing that, but it's true. Still the greatest. Fxxk.

[georgepwner1]

@buffenbison 2012 :O!!



[ItsAlliBear]

@buffenbison 2012, now!

[imholly00]

@buffenbison bitch please, i'm listening to this in 2012...:)

[rubbersoul96]

Genius.... Completely underrated.

[johnnytastetest]

I've always felt that the artist who did the cover of Revolver should have tried to do George a little better. He was probably drawn last, though, and they probably just said, "Aww, fuck it."

[miss9starr7]

@johnnytastetest It was by one of their best friends.. I don't think he made George's face like that by accident..

[harry112174]

one of my favorite song..

[Shancus32796]

huh, what i heard was that they were at someone's pool, and George was on acid thinking, "i'm gonna die" and a friend told him about accidentally shooting himself and dying three times, so he knew what it was like to be dead. where John replied, "who put all that shit in your head?"

i'll shut up now...

[RollOverBeethoven63]

I know what it's like to be dead

[FireFan92]

For the uninformed... can anyone out there tell me who is who on the black-and-white album cover?

[Hnath]

@FireFan92 Of the large faces, Paul McCartney is the top left, John Lennon is the top right, George Harrison is the lower right, and Ringo Starr is the lower left. The smaller pictures are all pictures of the Beatles, I believe... it's kind of hard to describe who is who without being able to point to them, but if you get a sense of what they look like in other pictures I bet you can figure it out.

[HardDaysNight44]

@FireFan92 top left is Paul, botttom left is Ringo, top right is John, and bottom right is George

[adolfofooo]

Is the picture moving man?

[lateforthesky61]

Oh thank God...At least others don't dis me for saying this song is about tripping because the first hour of an LSD trip you experience death...you actually die.. and are reborn into a dayglow earth that you are ready to explore and attach yourself to...wash rinse repeat. On the other side...if you're lucky, you have cosmic consciousness, but words are limitations here....

[TheOneartist]

@lateforthesky61 haha Why would we diss you? The Beatles loved psychedelics. This was based on an experience their friend Peter Fonda had with ego death on acid.

Psychonauts should definitely recognize this song as being about ego death. And it's a psychedelic rock song after all.

Check out "Tomorrow Never Knows" as well. Very influenced by acid.

[goodguyj]

when lennon says she said i know what its like to be dead, what he means is that too many people do not know what it is to live and the beatles still being in their rebellious stage in their teens and 20s especially in the 60s they were living the fast live which was influenced by physcadelics which made them realize thart live should be lived to the fullest

[Gaiacarra]

@goodguyj you sure it's not just that he or someone he knew had a subjective experience on LSD that he chose to describe as "knowing what it's like to be dead"? the song is supposedly an acid trip song, after all.

[baxtersave96]

This song was inspired by what Peter Fonda had said while on LSD.John had been to a party with Peter and he heard him say "I know what what it's like to be dead."

[gdosic]

@baxtersave96 Thanks...It is really good to know about Fonda`s influence.."She Said She Said" was the real thing.

[msherman008]

I'll be frank. Even one LSD experience can cause permanent memory loss. Is it worth it to have spots in your short term memory for the next 20 years?

[gdosic]

Guitar work on Revolver is fantastic. "She Said She Said " was written by Lennon with some help from Harrison.:D The guitars are even heavier than the Jefferson Airplane at that time, and Hendrix hadn't become a star yet. AWESOME!!!!

Ringo was a pioneer, yeah listen to "She Said She Said" if that is not unique I do not know what is.

[baxtersave96]

@gdosic iI agree 100% I have always loved the guitar playing on Revolver. It's nice to see intelligent comments about the Beatles music rather some bullshit about being 12 and Justin Bieber.

[metafis]

This album is so much heavier then their previous, some nice crunchy guitar distortion here, a signpost to the hard rock/metal that would come just a few years later.

[HeiHolaHello]

pffrt haha. I can't read the title of this video without thinking about that one old fad.

[Perfidia4ever]

L'incedere sontuoso della melodia, il riff "tagliente" (per l'epoca) della chitarra e la voce di John che va oltre l'universo, e poi il drumming di Ringo così preciso e pulito ma sempre presente....questi sono i Beatles che dimostrano di essere andati oltre lo yeah yeah yeah dei primi lavori. Straordinari.

[mikopitou100]

k, so my eldest brother bought this waaaay back in like 1970, I was 5, and I saw the album cover and thought, "Yay! A colouring page!" Went Crayola all over it. I don't think he's ever really forgiven me. But fyi, John looks awesome with lavender skin!

[lyric142]

@mikopitou100 Hahah! You made my day! xD

[SOCALNINER]

@mikopitou100 Do you still have it somewhere ? That'd be cool to see your artwork of Revolver 41 years later...lol....

[classiclistener01]

@mikopitou100 - That's a GREAT comment, my friend! And...a cool concept!!

I'm 45, and, when "Revolver" came out in 1966, I was seven-months-old! After that, I never thought to color my Mom's little sister's copy of this album cover while enjoying it; so, it's probably good that you and I weren't friends at that time!? Or, is it!?

Maybe this album was colorless so Baby-Boomers "WOULD" color it, and, owners would go out and buy another copy!? GOOD CONCEPT, GREAT ALBUM, and, GOOD IDEA! :)

[123456789abcdefghij]

Revolver el mejor album de los beatles

[1skullduggery]

inspired by a comment made by peter fonda while he and lennon were tripping on acid: he said, " i know what it's like to be dead".

[Perfidia4ever]

A parte la magnifica eleganza dell'armonia si scopre all'ascolto ogni volta la perfetta coesione stilistica di quattro individui diversi eppure simili, persino il drumming starriano assume connotati superbi. Lennon e la sua voce incredibile vola alta sulla chitarra di George a dir poco scintillante. Questi sono i "veri" Fabs che amo.

[bluesrockman1]

Best album ever made!!!!

[LousisanaShoveling]

Fonda wrote for Rolling Stone magazine:

“ I finally made my way past the kids and the guards. Paul and George were on the back patio, and the helicopters were patrolling overhead. They were sitting at a table under an umbrella in a rather comical attempt at privacy. Soon afterwards we dropped acid and began tripping for what would prove to be all night and most of the next day.

[ale000death]

Where's the red bar? :D

[bobgure]

Chills and Tears!!

[BronYAurStomp11]

No Paul McCartney -_-

[LordRassy]

@BronYAurStomp11 Only Beatles song without McCartney playing on it! Did they get a session guy in to do the bass, or did John/George play it?

[odalayme]

@LordRassy bass played by george

[ofir4222]

The Beatles make other bands feel like they have never been borned.

[matchbox555]

the beatles were in touch with something on the OTHER SIDE

[anonhustler]

Oh man, probably my favorite Beatles song/album.

Who else avoided the Beatles for a long time, and then when you finally came around to listening to them, you absolutely loved their music?

[342bobthemonkey342]

The Black Keys did one sexy cover of this song. It kicks ass. Go see.

[themaskedmaddman]

I made a time machine last night who is ready for a live beatles show back in time hop on!!!

[ofir4222]

@themaskedmaddman Im so in! Can I come?

[MrMatthewUnger]

@ofir4222 ?

[ofir4222]

@MrMatthewUnger He said he made a time machine lol

[MrMatthewUnger]

@ofir4222 Yeah lol. I thought you were talking about sex.lol

[SuperZac8]

I absolutely love this song.

[daracenak]

Ringo Starr, the most underrated drummer EVER!! :D

[Perfidia4ever]

Una delle perle nascoste dei Fabs. Forse il genio lennoniano con la supervisione di Paul chissà, ma quell'inserto della solista è bello davvero e poi il drumming preciso di Ringo...queste sono canzoni "superiori" che oggi sanno ancora di eternità. Nessuno come i Beatles.

[1962drob]

This is my favorite Beatles song off of Revolver. This is one of two songs on this album that John Lennon wrote that had to do with his use of drugs at that time.

R.I.P. JOHN & GEORGE

[dallasslee]

i live in the middle of kansas.... im pretty sure you can manage lol

[dancecamerondance123]

I love 60's music yeah, but personally I loved growing up in the 90's and 00's.. because you can listen to ALL genres, you don't have to wait for them to be made.

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

I WANNA FUC*ING TRY LSD !!!

[aasciaba2121]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME it changes the way you think for the rest of your life and gives you the key to the universe

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

@JMCyoungblood

I wanna try it but idk where to get it in Seattle.

[JMCyoungblood]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Their are different ways to expand your mind.. Look it up that's expanding right there. I feel where your coming from

[JMCyoungblood]

@JMCyoungblood :) :)

[LWayne38]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Try going to the Blue Moon on Eastlake you just might get lucky and find some

[myrtlebox]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Trust me....just stick with pot

[dallasslee]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME dude, best thing on earth. go for it

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

@dallasslee

But the thing is i cant find it anywhere near Seattle !

[drasticwillb]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME I spent the entire summer of '81 on LSD. I'm totally clean now for almost 20 years. I'm not hyper about people doing other drugs. LSD is not a recreational drug, it's drug research, like astronauts research lunar effects. You'll create a useless astronomical detachment, and it lasts for more hours than you care to examine the intense fabric design on your jeans. It's seriously upsetting, my mom had recently died and I was 18, I had no attachment to lose.

[tc8962]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Using LSD isn't necessary. You can alter your mind and expand your consciousness naturally. I did LSD a couple or three times. Now I meditate. That's also what George did. Meditation!

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

@tc8962

How can i see unicorns and flying turtles in a meadow of chocolate coconuts?

[tc8962]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Hahahaha! Well, that would be LSD. :)



[lepricon989]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME It's fucking amazing.

[Dearhunter43]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME well don't go crazy. Learn a thing or two before you explore the desert. Imagination Desert welcomes the knowledgable and shakes the fools. Neurosoup knows a thing or two. Like Jefferson Airplane said, "Feed you head for you gonna chase rabbits".

[azerty7889]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME May i give you an advice: don't do it in a workweek. The aftermath was crazy and i couldn't concentrate for a week.

[MrSlightlyHigh]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME Trust me go and do it, its beautiful

[TabanezDiogo]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME do that, it's REEEAAALLYYY good ;)

[SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME]

@TabanezDiogo

The problem is I CANT FIND IT IN SEATTLE!

Ahah.

[lateforthesky61]

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME

Make sure you're in the woods or in a natural settting with someone you totally trust as a good friend.

200 mcg is the max. OR do something lighter like mescaline. Psilocybin mushrooms or peyote are equally powerful, but understand you may have a bad experience if you have any issues with depression or anxiety or are taking medication for same. Not to be your parent, but start with marijuana... the stronger psychedelics I would say are risky and not to be taken lightly.
