[superslycooper78]

This song was about the govenor of the Pillipines when The Beatles where expected to go on a childrins show. The govenors wife wient to give them a ride and found them asleep and inncummondio. I think thats how you spell it :)

[carlenmarlon]

9gag brought me here.

[MaureenKelly1977]

I don't mind if they think that I am crazy :P

[LinkHarkinian]

@MrRC1992 Hair Peace, Bed Peace.

[Murlawk]

This song is about pissing your bed.

[MrRC1992]

I hate getting out of bed..... so I don't ( ;

[DietPomPoms]

John And George are just Sleeping Right?

[LemonPledge01]

@DietPomPoms They are and one day, when the time is right, we shall wake them and they will say 'We're only sleeping'

[nobrand]

I like the yawn around 2:00

[TheBeatlesTheDoors]

george's eyes seems to open and close...

[AnthonyRA2014]

This tune is my alarm clock.

[JerichoDitch2]

all the shit that has come out since has only served to demonstrate what a staggering talent John Lennon was... something those of us early Beatles fans have known all along...

[sangell3]

@JerichoDitch2

Miss them do you? I know I do too, but what is an 'early' Beatles fan except someone who hasn't yet listened to them?

[hotvideosist]

in an interview it was said that George Harrison PLAYED the BACKWORDS Notes on the guitar WITHOUT Palying the record backwords!!!

[drafo789]

i tried to get my brother to like the beatles for years. it didn't work. now i put this on full volume right next to his ear when he tries to sleep.

[lonkylaine]

52 should go to sleep and never disturb beatles fans anymore !

[goatcheez81]

You can tell John was really high when he sang this song by his voice.

[matsii101]

@goatcheez81 Do you really think he is high here? If you have read any Beatles-litterature you would know that Beatles were shit musicians when they were high. He WANTED to sound high here. And thanks to the brilliant George Martin, thats excactly how he sounds.

[beatlemaniac1966]

genius song, btw your username is hilarious lol

[chuckers220]

Bring back times as a teen. Nothing but good times.....

[7colliemac]

Johns voice is sooo pure!!!

[mundoperrovideo]

sono malato di beatles!

[Clarafofinha]

AMOOO

[robynsegg]

@KoolKristianKidz: You should add the word "-Aid" after the word Kool in your username... because it's so obvious that that is what you've been drinking.

[KennyWithaRPG]

@KoolKristianKidz I can tell your from an age of 7 to 10, and that youre just so insecure about yourself you have to talk trash to amazing artists who are dead, nice job.

[69MC97gc]

John had the same sleepdisorder I have,he never slept a whole night,he woke up 4-7 times ,and I believe Yoko and Sean can confirm it.On the White album there is a song about it called "I´m So Tired".

[GGtkd]

52 people fell asleep on the dislike button.

[supersandwitch14]

52 people are rap fans.

[isa1Beatles]

@supersandwitch14 52 people, don't know what is music ;)

[CuttieSnipe]

52 people were not able to go back to sleep...

[MrBlueSky011]

All street musicians should play this song.

[SmashKai]

At around 1:55, it's very faint but you can JUST make out John saying "Yawn, Paul"

[supersandwitch14]

@SmashKai Liar.

[SmashKai]

@supersandwitch14 no seriously, it sounds more like "aaah oaugh" but it's before the yawn part, after the 'sleeping' and during the bass fill. I'm not sure if he's saying 'yawn, paul' or not but it sounds like it.

[supersandwitch14]

@SmashKai Just messin' with you. It's not something one lies about. Anywho, I think I heard it, but not certain.

[lmOnlySleeping]

My favorite song from Revolver, Johns voice is beautifully hypnotic. 

[8down10]

i know Paul had so many brilliant bass lines over the years with the beatles but id say that this is one of his best, the breaks after the chorus' are so simple but awesome

[tonibcnn]

This song makes you dream, makes you think about the world in a beautiful way without rush, just seeing the beauty of the world. It's makes you fly and when you hear it you feel in peace with yourself. Music and lyrics make a homogeneous mixture and the final result it's pure magic absolutely pure

[jordidwdw]

who else fav part is after 1:14

[TRIPPYbugger]

god bless you Fucktown

[retrotux]

There's no NEED... one of my first psychedelic experiences...FANTASTIC

Paul is only sleeping...

Okay, I don't actually believe the whole Last Testament cassette thing. But it's a freaking cool story, you can't deny. xD

[newallthestars100]

I once managed to sing this to my mom when she was trying to get me up for school. Now I'm listening to make me go to sleep. Something about this song, maybe it's the guitar solo. It just puts my mind at ease.

Thumbs up for people not to get trolled!

[GustavoVillarBatera]

damn now i gotta find taylorlund's comment

[VICIOUSVORTMAX]

thanks fucktown lol

[Etonmessy]

Who else thinks this song is about them?

[SirBarzdevics]

@Etonmessy sorry but, who are them?

[TheGuitarGuy9999]

@stkbkr1 George wrote a guitar solo that he liked, but thought it would sound better if it had a backwards effect. So, he and George Martin spent hours (6 I think) transcribing his solo backwards. George played it backwards and then reversed it for the song so that he had the solo he wrote with a backwards sound.

[stkbkr1]

Hey does anybody know the story about the why there is a segment of guitar that appears to be playing backwards?

[MrCristoir]

I just listened to this song for the first time,Now I absolutely appreciate what the Beatles have done for music theres no doubt they completely Revolutionised music,But whilst my mates (thats who sent me here)Fav band are the Beatles mine are PINK FLOYD,Floyd did this kinda stuff when Barrett was around and then moved on Floyd in their "Wish you were here days" Would fuckin laugh at this material if you brought it to them What i'm saying is this just reminds me of just how dam good FLOYD where.

[Corvet123124]

Shhhh i'm only sleeping -_- (Z z Z z Z z Z z)

[coleta1915]

AWESOME!!!!! 

[luiswalrus]

ssshhhhhhh.....i'm only sleeping (yawning)

[tomgmaster2]

john isnt dead he's only sleeping

[BeckyBeatle]

I think John really loved Paul more than anyone ;) They had a man crush on each other I think... Which Is normal for anyone. I just love the musical connection between the two.

May John sleep in Peace <3

[lukefenderrhodes]

@BeckyBeatle all will be revealed if you dig hard enough you will find john had a secret relationship with epstein

[BeckyBeatle]

@lukefenderrhodes Nahh, I've heard about hat but I honestly believe that there was nothing between them :)

[msbowiedepp]

i have a t shirt of revolver :)

[Authorgirl2]

@msbowiedepp

I've got a Hard Day's Night. =D

[msbowiedepp]

@Authorgirl2 cool :D

[KingSolomon343]

@Hartz323 Please tell me you're referring to 1969 instead of the other thing. I hope Beatles fans are more mature than that..

[SunglassesAtNite1]

@KingSolomon343 Please tell me you aren't that uptight

[Hartz323]

ironic how the first comment has 69 likes...

[roboshuffle]

Brilliant.

[TheFruitdwarf]

the dislike bar is like a ninja, you know it is there but you can't see it

[ThatPurpleDoor]

@TheFruitdwarf wow lol your here too :) oh and really nice unoriganal comment :P

[giordanobrunovela]

im still young

[skills4mills]

The beatles. Amazing.

[gabitangerine]

I can relate so much to this song. Also I suggest to check out The Vines cover of this song. It is really amazing!

[1boredenglishteen]

I wish people were more creative with music these days..

[raymartin10]

@1boredenglishteen creative people arent allowed near the mainstream these days. hell, even the beatles nearly didnt make it. if you come along with tunes like this record companies dont wanna know you. they want safe easy listening shite. needs someone to come along and bust down the doors again like the beatles did in 62

[TheAwsomeMichael]

@raymartin10 if you listen to rap/hip hop, well then the FunkVolume team is there to do it. Dizzy Wright, SwizZz, Hopsin. dizzy reminds me of a modern day lennon with all the love he trying to spread.

[RadicalRay100]

I am on of the most luckiest girls ever for having the Revolver album puzzle, two Beatles books, three Beatles shirts, the Beatles White album cd, and the Beatles Love album cd, and I haven't even known about the band for over a year! :P

[ColouredHairStreaks]

@RadicalRay100 I've been listening to the Beatles ever since I was a baby. My mom would always listen to them and I would always dance along to the songs, and I've lost count to how many Beatles things I own, hahaha. So awesome <3

[RadicalRay100]

@ColouredHairStreaks  Nice!

[BadClownCompany]

I concur. fucktown is a representation of the person's character. too bad, its contributions are good.

[jackiechan1555]

John and George are only sleeping....<3

[TheDisputZingo]

if you listen carefully, you can here someone (probably John) say "yawn, Paul" at 1:57. Then you can here Paul yawn at 2:00 :D

[lukasflako]

John is not dead, he's only sleeping :D

[lukasflako]

John is not dead, he's only sleeping :D

[raymartin10]

check out "ray martin glenda" for a new beatles style tune

[azambory]

@raymartin10 how can it be new if its in the Beatles style?

[raymartin10]

[RadicalRay100]

[TeamXYZproductions]

wtf look at the username

[SuperMAPH]

@TeamXYZproductions FUCKTOWN

[jordidwdw]

@SuperMAPH hardcore fucktown

[bostonaudi]

It would interesting to wipe your mind clear, go back to 1966, and hear this LP when it came out, fresh and for the first time. I suspect it blew a few minds! Especially Tomorrow Never Knows.

[TheLourdes2009]

The greatest band that there ever was! No band will ever be like The Beatles!

[jasperwoods]

@TheLourdes2009 Led Zeppelin is

[janicerosemiller]

this is 3:02 minutes long, and it's the longest song in revolver. i wish revolver songs were longer, or if there were more (with catchy tunes and nice lyrics) (One of) the best album(s) ever.

[technomanij95]

revolver and abbey road the best albums ever!

[ruin0]

@MaaaarrJ So I go to your channel and notice on your recent activity that you liked Backstreet Boys-I want it that way and you have the nerve to call the Beatles white cunts. I seriously laughed out loud, lolwut

[MaaaarrJ]

@ruin0 what can i say man family computer gets used by the family and i was of course joking,i love the beatles has anyone told you you should be a sleuth?

[guitarguy474]

The Beatles are best I don't care what anybody else says!

[101gamelover]

Oh wow 51 dislikes nice try Mark Chapman.

[themusus]

los beatles son lo mejor!

[jwfergie24]

51 people have insomnia

[UglyFatAndStillAlive]

This song is so relaxing to me... just love it

[thejoj96]

My comment was copied from a Pink Floyd video (with "Pink Floyd" replaced with "The Beatles"). I'm not from London and I'm younger than 38.

[Isthisitforme]

My favorite Beatles' song. I feel like John I can relate to John, here.

[JulesAndVincent54]

In the extended version of " Pulp Fiction," Mia ask Vincent if he's a Beatles or Elvis man. Why Elvis? At least the Beatles and Stones gave thanks to the true creators of Rock n' Roll, the American Black musicians. In fact, the name Rock n' Roll can be traced back to Philadelphia Black slang.

[PeaceHippiesLove]

Yall are dumb. Just enjoy the music. :)

[jeffreygaudreault]

@thejoj96 The Beatles are BETTER than The Rolling Stones!!

[AnaLimaLuiza]

@jeffreygaudreault Jimmy Hendrix is better than both.

[DawnRainWasHere]

I'm about to go to bed..I've listened to "I'm so tired" and this,ah what a grand way to calm my mind for a drifty night.

[tahoevic]

Yes and how is it when you can't even SLEEP AN finish that Dream, fucking people, I never, EVER, wake a person EVER!, that is all John was sayinfg as a Beatle that got NO, NO NO, REST let me FUCKING Get some sleep MAN. BOY I hear it!

[cheyboo67]

JOHN was the best. He';s right, the Rat RAce is a stupid, pointless thing!!!!

[bignerd21]

shiit dood this sounds mind blowing

[coolface22743]

1:51--"Yawn, Paul."

[ittems]

is this the early beatles or their later stuff?

[nightcrawler511]

@ittems 1966 3 years into their fame i'd consider it middle years, although this was the beginning of the pyshdeclic scene for theme, this was known as the first pyshcedilc album plus the first album with backwards music

[Julesnshane]

@nightcrawler511 what do you mean 3 years into their fame? Didn't the Beatles start in 1960?

[Callabashful]

@ittems kind of inbetween, they had moptops and Ringo looked like Buster Brown. After this, they waited almost a year to realeace the next album (while Paul "died") which Was Sergeant Peppers

[StronglyFancied]

EVERYBODY SEEMS TO THINK IM LAZY

I DONT MIND I THINK THEYRE CRAZY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MargotRockyeah]

LOS BEATLEs son sus jodidos padres!!! jamás ha existido otra banda igual, ni existirá!

[nintend0productions2]

@johnwaynegacy94 if you don't like them why did you go to one of their videos? stupid youtube troll. just trying to piss people off for attention. the attention you probably lack to get in the real world. rot you fuckin troll.

[ToriandLexy]

@johnwaynegacy94 So I guess Metallica videos aren't all you're being annoying about, huh?

[conmaesta]

For all of you new kids playing music, try playing this song with no effects....on guitar...on vocals, on bass, whatever...everything flat...now do this song...and don't cheat....That's what they did...all by themselves...

[nightcrawler511]

@conmaesta they had effects, well on the backwards guitar. every studio album is enhacned alittle just listen to their demos, but i can see what your saying, the only album that had no editing was let it be, the remastered ones are obviously enhanced but back in the day it was released just as it was played not one modification

[robotmonkey73]

dude, this song totally describes the life of a stoner

[FrogmortonHotchkiss]

Strikes me as being rather like a very good Blur song.

[cKunke2]

@thejoj96 that was beautiful :')

[ProducShuns]

@thejoj96 damn that's awesome. your dad was right. revolver is one of the best albums of all time

[Gidget521]

@thejoj96 - That has to be one of the most wonderful posts I've read in ages. Thanks so much for sharing.

[fghjklkoijhu]

@thejoj96 I just googled your comment, you copied it from someone else.

[Callabashful]

@fghjklkoijhu lol, who googles comments? For an awesome cover, check my channel.

[Factednateopinions]

@thejoj96 Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, Judas Priest and Rush come pretty damn close.
