  • The video to this song was from the Beatles song "Hey Bullfrog", but it is cool anyway. Yes, great bass lines!

  • awesome....simply awesome.....bass, drums, guitar, vocals, lyrics and delivery (John), melody, everything.....awesome!

  • 13 people have something to hide.

  • Questo pezzo lo apprezzo, ma perchè è dei Beatles. Lennon non era in grado di poter scrivere un vero rock, lui Beatles che ha scritto un vero rock è stato Paul McCartney con Helter skelter, è un vero hard rock dall'inizio alla fine.questo pezzo ha mostrato al mondo che i Beatles se avessero voluto avrebbero potuto fare Heavy metal, ma grazie al mitico McCartney hanno inventato tutti i generi.

  • Monkey = YOKO

    

  • Good job on the video. The music helps ...

    

  • Mazdak....flagged for spam.

  • no homo. but i love george harrison!

  • Wait...monkey...Obama?

  • @soupnazi45 Expected ignorance from a nazi.

  • @oneoneone5 I think any smart person can admit that obama is a fucking retard. But yeah hes a nazi.

  • Dunno why this is one of their least popular songs, I think its one of their best, energetic, creative, edgy, rockin awesome

  • This song was written about Yoko!

  • @TheCalebdude13 As far as I was aware from interviews it was one of the songs written in India. Most of the phrases were claimed to have come from what the Maharishi would would say.

  • there is such a brilliant energy to this song

  • I want a monkey. (I mean Monkee.)

  • Every time I hear this I go CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hey ToxicTurquoise, this band invented metal (listen to Helter Skelter) - just like they invented everything else.... and they did it nearly 50 years ago. Peace out, man!

  • carajo...que monstruos son los beatles!! lo mejor de la vida

  • @ToxicTurquoise454 HAHAHAHAHA

  • @ToxicTurquoise454 Get Out.

  • @ToxicTurquoise454 thats because its not a heavy metal band. Its the best rock band in history

  • @ToxicTurquoise454 clearly this is just a comment to drag attention to yourself and hopefully start an argument with people over the internet. The Beatles were never a metal band, they were a rock band. Most of their tracks are rock with a few exceptions. If you want heavy stuff then listen to Helter Skelter, either that or go youtube "metal music" instead of posting crap on Beatles videos.

  • @ToxicTurquoise454 Hey Toxic, why don't you go stick your head in a dumpster, maybe there's some food in there?

  • @ToxicTurquoise454 lol  and you suck at life. Fuck you!

  • Love. The. Fucking. Bass.

  • Lately I've been rediscovering some of the more "obscure" Beatles stuff like this and paying more attention to musicianship, especially to the bass lines. The bass line in this song is awesome!

  • @MonkeySeeism Basically, you should just check out their Acid-period stuff, with Sgt. Pepper's being the middle-station. And if basslines' your thing, check out P-funk.

  • Can't stop listening to this song...

  • Amazing bass at 2:04 I love it ....

  • Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

  • the snare is my favorite part of this song

  • MORE COWBELL

  • George is so funny....'everything in the song is true...except the part about the monkey!" rip, gh

  • This is the strangest song I have ever heard... 

  • @GrabbyML have you heard "i am the walrus"?

  • @ittems Yes. These guys were seriously on crack

  • @GrabbyML and LSD :D

  • yeah thats punk rock :)

  • Yoko kong

  • This song was guest-produced by Bruce Dickenson...Yes-THE Bruce Dickenson!!! The Beatles later walked out of Abbey Road Studios wearin' gold-plated diapers!!!

  • 2:00 => This is the most epic moment of music's story...

  • HELL YES

  • what video is Paul screaming at 0:40?! :DDD i absolutely love this video!

    smashing! groovy! <3

  • Just ridiculous. It's amazing these four dudes converged at the right place and time to make this music. So ahead of the curve it's mind boggling.

  • How can anyone call this shit, ok the lyrics may not be to challenging, but try playing the bass to this song, it is a absolute bitch but damn well one of the best bass, and at speed, ya wanna impress a girl with your bass skills, try this

  • No doubt, this is the most horrible Beatle song. Long Long, Long and Savoy Truffle are also very bad ones. But they do not make a dent on the rest of wonderfull songs.

  • @JOSEFRAJOLA you dont now nothing about music. this is a grate son. the bass its incredible. you sack

  • @fofimero Retard.

  • Very long title, very short song. :(

  • Whenever I hear some tone-deaf moron say The Beatles are lightweights, I long to play them this song -- with Lennon casually dismissing every white R&R singer before, then or since -- and tell them to STFU!

  • video is bulldog

  • who is his monkey? nixon? jk.

  • @NegativeNick

    The monkey is Yoko Ono.

  • great video editing!

  • Excellent video.Timeless mate.Thanks for allowing the response! Brilliant :)

  • Rocko's Modern Life gave a nod to this song in one of their episodes. Great stuff

  • Is it bad that I'm 15 and all I listen to is The Beatles?

  • @KJHOnYoutubification no it's okay...

  • @KJHOnYoutubification Im 14 and i do the same

  • @KJHOnYoutubification Yes!! Stop what you are doing immediately and go listen to music that kids of your age group are constantly targeted with!!

    -Youtube Management

  • It doesn't matter how old you are... no one is to old or young to listen to the Beatles.

  • funny

  • The quick solo at the end makes me want to run endlessly. 

  • i love whoever keeps screaming in the background in this song, sounds like they're really feeling it!!

  • 1:16 John and Ringo :) they love each other so much :)

  • This song definitely has hidden, prophetic messages in it. To learn what they are, search "truth contest" in Google and click the first result. Then open "The Present" and read the section about The Beatles, and you will see what I mean.

  • Ever since I was little, listening to my Beatles has made me wanna dance even when I'm blue!

    Especially when I'm blue.

  • i love love love the beatles!!!!! :)

  • come on come on come on come on come on come on

  • does anyone else listen to the bass riff at 2:02 over and over again?

    thats gotta be the coolest sounding riff ever

  • @SirDues What? Rain's bass is the coolest bass of all.

  • @SirDues Awfully warm and chunky.

  • @SirDues McCartney's a great bass player.... was glad to have spent the time learning his licks in high school. Really benefitted me as a player at the time.

  • @SirDues oh yeah!

  • this always reminds me of ross frrom friends

  • @blondechickxxxx hahaha, marcel's pretty classic :)

  • This song gives me feelings in places it shouldn't. I mean that in the best way possible.

  • Harrison's lead guitar rocks this cradle, no question!

  • 0:46 ahhh ringo is such a fuckin badass i love him

  • This must be one of their best titles

  • Come on, it's such a joy; come on, let's make it easy - hey, sure - let's!

  • :D happy at work!!

  • 0:27

    Happy, happy, happy, grouch. Haha.

  • Lots of fun here. The monkey represents the unique and quite personal sexprience of existentialism, at least insofar as can be shared in the best tradition. Theefore, the girls will always go for a half=witted=dickster, sure. Good Luck. Say it Clyde! Gurlz! Call us on the call.

    It's just rihgt, because I said so. And DO NOT ask Heather for anyhting, she's just a whores

  • Grouse song....Love. Gotta say the Bass Rocks....

    

  • 2:15 More Cow bell! We need more cow bell!

  • I'm 13 and i <3 this music....where has this stuff gone? oh yeah and Dad, thanks for introducing me to this awesome stuff!

  • people must keep losing their monkeys!!!!!!

  • @indieaner52 No its that everybody's got something to hide :D

  • and his monkey is.... ?

  • 12 years old...1968...unwrapped the cellophane to the White Album...threw the first disc on the turntable...cool...I like this....threw on the second disc....came to this song....I started screaming at my mother....I HAVE FOUND MY FAVORITE BEATLES SONG!!!!....she looked at me as if I were nuts. Maybe I was, but I still love this song.

  • I think it's better as 8 people have something to hide

  • 8 people dont have a monkey

    ya i no that sucks but i had to

  • 8 people dont have a monkey

  • that bass line.. still one of my favorites from Paul McCartney. without that killer bass line this song would not be as awesome.

  • @maccabeat I love it too. Always have loved it on the vinyl.

  • Dear Paul,

    You are the best bass player of all time.

  • @EricDymond Correction:

    Dear Paul ,

    You are the best of all time *

  • @xxfuturexactressxx All legends, but I'm a John fan ;)

  • Nice.

  • Is that a young Arnold Schwarzenegger at 1:35?? lol

  • Sean Lennon should cover this.

  • sounds like punk

  • Good job...Beatles are LOVE!

  • @Mazdak1

    rofl they clearly do, theyve only sold 1 billion 600 million albums, awful i know!

  • @OllieRetroSound quantity < quality. Lady Gaga, Lil Wayne, and the Black Eyed peas are at the top of the charts. Just because millions of retards listen to something doesn't make it good.

  • @Mazdak1

    LOL, yeah so youre saiyng Lady Gaga has more quality than the beatles? lol

    and also the beatles had both quantity and quality. Why do you think they sold so many albums, and why do you think theyve had more no.1's in the UK than any other artist. Millions of retards listen to the crap you listed aswell, and the beatles were at the top of the charts, there not going to be anymore are they? pathetic...

  • @OllieRetroSound You obviously are a moron since you didn't get my point- Lady gaga is garbage yet she sells millions and is no.1... just like madonna and lil wayne... AND THE BEATLES! The beatles had more musical talent alright, but that doesn't translate to anything. There hasn't been decent music in the western world in at least 100 years.

  • @Mazdak1

    Well the way your previous comment was going, it suggested to me that you were saying they had more talent so my bad, eitherway the fact is, your comment suggesting the beatles 'sucked' was quite absurd seeing as they clearly dont suck. You may or may not like them, but they certantly don't suck...

  • LMAO. You do get some utter cunts on youtube. Mazdak is one of them.

  • @Underground906 at least i'm not a pseudo bolshevik like these degenerates were and are. 

  • @Mazdak1 No decent music in the western world in 100 years? OK, if you like classical music then that is your preference but to say that out of every western band/artists from the beginning of the 20th century there wasn't one decent one among them is kind of ridiculous. People like Nat King Cole, BB King, Ray Charles Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd were not decent? If that is really your perspective then I feel sorry for you. And how were The Beatles Pseudo Bolsheviks?

  • The Beatles were SO good!

  • paul sucked.....john lennon was the beatles

  • @cletistheslackjawedy ....No one member was the Beatles. It was the sum of the parts that made it what it was. jmho.

  • 386 got something to hide

  • Yeah babeeeey

  • This is why alot of people love The Beatles, because they have the most creative sings

    this song, Why Dont We Do it in the Road, and alot more

  • it seems like they have an infinite amount of ideas.

  • What Video is 0:41 ?? xx Cool song :)

  • @TheBeatlesPotato it's from the video of The Ballad of John and Yoko :)

  • Comment removed

  • @TheBeatlesPotato it's the Let it Be sessions

  • @TheBeatlesPotato

    I believe that would be the rehearsel sessions from the Let It Be DVD. :)

  • there's just so much awesomeness in all of their songs... 2:28 seems like 5 minutes. i don't know how they do it...

  • @joecullen1120 just so PACKED with energy and genius and I don't know what

  • Bem mar feito!

  • It's amazing, their lives weren't not that happy,

    But as musically we'd they never seemed to know a bad day....

  • the song is about john's heroin use, monkey = dependence on H

  • @georgewbushpresident George Bush = 9/11

  • @The8347135 win

  • @georgewbushpresident "The deeper you go, the higher you fly"

    yeah, that suddenly makes sense to me now lol

  • @georgewbushpresident i'm pretty sure "monkey" was him referencing Yoko and how he felt about all the rumors spreading about them at the time

  • @georgewbushpresident it may be about heroin but i read that the "monkey" was yoko,he was maybe saying everyone was full of shit cept him and yoko.

  • @twinflame93 the song speaks of coming back into a state of calmness after pure madness, I dont know maybe drug induced? it's taking someone who has overthunk the meaning of the universe and seen the state of buttfucked condundrum and telling you to look at it now in the dualic side. the blacker it goes the whiter it comes, and that everybody in the world has some sort of state of misery that haunts them, ghosts from the past, ect. and to just take it easy and enjoy everything.

  • Wayyyy ahead of their time. So creative.

  • One of The Beatles definitive Rolling Stone like songs

  • More cowbell!

  • paul playing that bell rocks this song

  • this song is BEAST!

  • great video :-}

    thank you very much for sharing mister the Silver Slumber..

  • Errbodys Gotta hide Your Kids Sept Me and my monkey, Homeboy!  Sorry Couldnt resist. This Song is So Sick!!!!!!! The Beatles are my favorite. THUMBS UP!!!!!!!

  • anyone know what that percussion instrument being used? (that rattling noise)

  • @hodgins cowbell :P

  • todo del mashiri (menos el mono)

  • This should've been on Rock Band...

  • They're so creative...

  • real music yo.

  • 4 and 8 track recording and you can hear every last note and instrument compared to today with unlimited tracks with computers and asshole bands put out shit that sounds like it was put though a meat grinder. You don`t even get true stereo anymore.

  • @JamesTKirkCobain =today's producers lack imagination..full on volume on everything..through a meat grinder like you say...forty years ago the best producers were far more subtle..the Beatles were so lucky to work with George Martin and vice versa.

  • 6 people got something to hide

  • MOAR COWBELL!!!

    great song anyways.

  • Imagine if all four Beatles were alive today touring...Imagine what a killer show it would be....They start the show with up-beat songs like this, then in the middle John Lennon could sing "imagine" and then Paul sing "yesterday" and George play "something." and then they end with "A day in the Life", no one could top that...Unfortunately we will never see the day. :(

  • 0:47 where is that from?

  • Nice video pal ;)

  • Thats a fucking long title for a song but who cares, there the beatles :D

  • yes the song is about johns heroin addiction and not caring about who knows.

  • @movingmanify You're a misinformed idiot. Shut your fucking mouth and get your facts straight.

  • How the fuck can 5 people not like this

  • what the hell is ringo doing at 0:48?

  • A reason why Rock n Roll will never die.....

  • All these decades later and this still kicks the backside of any music around today

  • 25% of americans can't read a newspaper... 50% can't read above a 5th grade level..... uh oh.

  • i just love to song everybody got something to hide except for me and monkey :D

  • check the fadeout of this song 2.06-2.12....the beatles invent punk music

  • @thenortherndrones The Beatles invented everything.

  • @Xweetokn

    Yes we all know that they were bigger than God

  • george is the most underated guitarist in the world ;-)

  • Ufffffffffffffffffffffffffffff­fffff!, yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, this song is of the best!!
