The Beatles Rooftop Concert Part 1

[Valerie40066]

THIS IS LEGENDARY!!! 

[icedt245]

I LOVE The Beetles! And listening 2 old music, and not just the beetles, makes me wonder, how has music has managed to fall so down hill in a couple decades? i mean its not all bad but its just not the same as this. Thumbs up if you agree!!!

[diegomansi]

WHAT IS MORRISSEY DOING AT 5:50?

[raachelvernon]

I would piss myself if I saw this happening while I was walking down the street.

[EssenceLongboards]

This and soulwax parklife 08 are probably my two favorite performances on YouTube

[haydenfx]

I wish I had been there : (

[melpat72]

The best!!!!!!!!!

[Cavemandaboss]

Ha this is why we have noise pollution laws, i say that wings ( pauls current band ) should mimic this performance.

[rumputuski]

What a legendary gig. At that moment all disgruntleness is gone and The Beatles play their music with joy and passion and give it their all. How much of a douche do you have to be to complain to the police about this?

"Hello, my name is Percy Hogwanker and I'm one of the shopowners who complained to the police about the Beatles gig, which just turned out to be their last. Today I busy myself with being one of the most hated persons in Britain".

[er6789er]

The dude with the pipe, derby and trench coat - definitely a time traveler...

[joeyd233]

1 question god why not ringo

[elipena82]

Here is an answer for those of you wondering who disliked this video... IT WAS THE JONAS BROTHERS!!!

[John37816]

@elipena82 but there are 4 DISLIKES! So its also Justin Bieber

[herrseppvon]

justin who!

[Ecuador9272]

four people let me down...

[q12tube]

this sound is on, the other rooftop concert vid, sound is delayed half a second, you can hear paul bounce one more time after he quits jumping on the roof at the beginning. but, yes this does sound sped up about 15-20 percent, but the minutes is the same as the other rooftop recordings (by 88pimpin and the HQ ones)

[MissGSlick]

its cool that theres no girls screaming...

[EviICorporateWhore]

4 Justin Bieber fans accidentally clicked this video.

[BuTTuRzz]

@EviICorporateWhore stfu kid jesus no one cares about u or ur bieber jokes

[EviICorporateWhore]

@BuTTuRzz

I apologize. I didn't mean to offend your idol.

[MetalRexPS3]

Wasen't Get Back the last song on the rooftop ???

[sunrize2]

2 people are apprently Justin Beiber fans and wouldn't know good music if it smacked them in the face.

[sunrize2]

[FRIJJMONSTA]

This awesome, is it a bit sped up though?

[cRobert2020]

Proof that magic exists... The Beatles... John, Paul, George and Ringo are/were wonderful individually, but together... they were phenomenal. Happy Birthday John.

[juleskroon]

Hey!

Have you the Beatles Rooftoop Concert as analog film? jules

[ckycrew416]

dont let me down! the first beatle song i ever heard

[malcolmnash]

Wow! Makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck - wonderful, imagine if you were actually privaliged to be there!

[cornball918]

Angry, sad, and / or glad; put them together with their instraments and they make music magic. Guitar playing great in "get back."

[southparkfan1999]

i think they would have been better off if yoko was shot because she was one of the reasons why they disbanded

[greenwich1754]

@southparkfan1999 I laughed the first moment I read this (primarily because of beer), and I understand what you are saying, but you can't REALLY mean that! However, I think separated at birth: Yoko & cousin It is quite appropriate!

[Chrischutube]

@southparkfan1999 Or if no one was shot AT ALL.

[afroboy256]

What I want to know is who is the one person that gave this video a thumb down!

[LeoLovesNature]

@afroboy256 me man, jk

[John37816]

@afroboy256 jb

[dirtroadsweeite]

Beatles forever !!!!

[spock8131]

This is Thurs,come this week coming I Don will get my BEATLES. And you won't cut me out again,which you should have done a long time ago. Thank You.

[vetteking2]

I dare anyone to tell me that any other band could have pulled this off!!! Your freaking dreaming if you think so. These cats were beyond cool, they invented cool. R.I.P. John and George. Would Love to see Paul and Ringo together for something. Beatles Forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dirtroadsweeite]

@vetteking2 aymen!!!

[dudett4]

they all look so sad :'(

[2lovelionking2]

@dudett4 So right...

[toriajayne6]

Wasn't this live?Yeah it was.  So there, the last live Beatles concert was in 1970

[MyMatt63]

I was there! along with 435,615,201 people.

[toriajayne6]

@MyMatt63 I want to have been there!!!

[boong1960]

It's the good VDO for this time for me, but some recommendation. The pictures you feature are the best from others,but any way the sound is not strong. I hope you will keep on your good works!

boongtalay

[littlelordfauntleroy]

so who is playing keyboards?

[McKuarro]

@littlelordfauntleroy: Billy Preston is at the Fender Rhodes electric piano!

[pskidmore1986]

George looks like a pimp with his fur coat on, such an epic performance

[intrsoul]

They are just 'on' - I mean, you walk out on a rooftop, plug in your gear, and it sounds like the studio recording. Incredible.

[intrsoul]

They are just *on* - I mean, you walk out on a rooftop, plug in your gear, and it sounds like the studio recording. Incredible.

[ROCK9867]

whos lead guitar in Get Back?

[sacramentolove]

@ROCK9867 john lennon

[xemily91]

Paul looks like he's having a blast in this, especially Get Back.

[sorryeyebrows77]

im just wondering.... who sings the lead in "Get Back" i can never tell the difference when they r older... except for Ringo and John, John cuzza his hair and Ringo cuzza his nose... ~:>

[ostbg]

@sorryeyebrows77 Paul. You can easily recognize him - he plays bass and is left-handed.

[Thesaltman77]

Love to see John really playing the guitar (not a knock, just that George was normally lead). Wish I culd have seen this

[beatlespaullover101]

it seems like there rushing it cuz when i listen to it on my ipod its alot more slow and calm but maybe they had to finish fast idk

[Kridane]

@beatlespaullover101 There speeding it up, if you look at the other versions of this video its normal.

[4FabBEATLES]

poor RIngo must've felt left out- he never got to sing and never got the attention he deserved. He's a good singer when he sings alone now wiht his all starr band.

[sk8erdude1134]

well atleast he got some spotlight :)

[sacramentolove]

he sang yellow submarine n another song... i dontt remember...

[colins27]

@sacramentolove he also sang and wrote 'Octopus' Garden' and sang 'With a Little Help From My Friends' both pretty good songs on the scale of things... but nothing compared to JL

[sacramentolove]

@colins27 true, true...

[subg88]

'With a Little Help...' was a Lennon/McCartney composition.

[Xmenfan246]

@sacramentolove He sang more songs than that. e.g. Act Naturally, Boys, Octopus' Garden, Honey Don't, Good Night, Don't Pass Me By, etc. His solo career was also successful. In fact he had more Top 10 Billboard hits than John + George combined. Yet he's still the most underrated.

[sacramentolove]

@Xmenfan246 wow, i like the song dont pass me by, but r u a ringo starr fan? u like his today's music? cuz u should chek out his song "liverpool 8"

[Xmenfan246]

@sacramentolove I have his albums Photograph: The Very Best of Ringo, Ringo, Liverpool 8, and Y Not. I think Y Not is his best album since Vertical Man. I only like two songs from Liverpool 8, which are Love Is and Liverpool 8.

[sacramentolove]

@Xmenfan246 lol cool :)

[Shadowdragonflames]

he didnt want to sing

[subg88]

Ringo always sang one when the Beatles played live - usually "I Wanna Be Your Man" or "Matchbox". I wouldn't feel too bad for him, he was only the drummer in the best band in the world and went on to work with some of the best during the 70s.

[Xmenfan246]

@4FabBEATLES Ringo is first and foremost a great drummer.

[4FabBEATLES]

the lady with black hair at 4:46 is Yoko Ono, John Lennon's 'wife' (more like mother-figure) the other Beatles didn't like having her around which was 1 reason they argued. Te Beatles still Rocked England that day until the police finally stopped them.

[TonyJenRock1]

my god did those boys have fun or what!

If we all had that much fun there would be no wars....let s go have some fun and song

[xXPaRaDoXiCXx]

Could you imagine that an immortality potion existed and The Beatles (And Yoko..If she died...John would be very sad) drank it???

That would be amazing......No major sadness has happened on that 1970 (I think) day.....Neither on that 2001 day (On of the saddest years ever...9/11....George HARRISON..

[moewe17]

Das war doch mal eine colle Idee, so was hat heute kein Musiker mehr.

[TheGuitarguy1995]

Happy 41st anneversary of the rooftop concert!!!! Woohoo Beatles Forever!!!

[braujita12]

The beatles are the best band !

[bitacora1426512]

Could anhybody tell me who's the woman who entrer behind of ringo on the 0.13 sec please!!! LOL :)

[jedimaster1122]

@bitacora1426512

 Billy Preston, he played the keyboard for them....

[BertLeysen]

@bitacora1426512 Maureen, Ringo's wife.

[bluejayway9LG]

probably just a person helping set up.but i dont know for sure

[jessklug]

this is really good quality and sound for what year it was and that its performed live. it just shows that the beatles had raw talent and didnt need machines to alter the way the sound in order to sound good.

[Kbralzinnn]

thanks Yoko --'

[renzopogi12]

the Beatles rock!!

[nolineintheorizon]

oh thanks guys that really helped!!!! now we can do this version with this part of the missin lyric THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

[nolineintheorizon]

Can Somebody Tell me what does john say in the don´t let me down song in the minute 6´06 seems preety funny for them but i dont get to understand them pretty well can somebody help me???

[MrIAmTheWalrus86]

I don't know i think he's is saying one of the lyrics in some different language lol and that's why they're laughing.

[akamslaynestaley]

i have this at home on my tivo and the closed caption says this....

and notice real she got blee blop gee goo, she does, yes she does.

hope it helped

[HoosInDaHowse]

he just forgot the words cause it was quite a new song and went 'blee blop gee goo'! :)

[andantinowithaswager]

he just forgot the words and replaced them with sounds.

[pwnhaloX]

i get mad at the people in this vid. They are watching the greatest band live and act like they dont care!

[99Dynomite]

German?

[20stafford09]

scousers :D

[andantinowithaswager]

this is spead up

[TomAtchleySrA]

total epicness

[bryandrummond]

I dont care what anyone says, they were loving it!

[AnneWorld]

Haha can you just imagine like hearing noise in your house and you go outside and the beatles are there? x]

[ElectricSnakeHabits]

Delightful!

[jointhetubeyou]

ya Lennon got shot by a fan who wanted an autograph but didnt get one

[buzz88270]

He gave it to him the fan wanted to kill him before.

[revolutionX7]

No he gave him the autograph the guy who tried to get the autograph wanted to kill him anyways.

[HoosInDaHowse]

no, john gave him the autograph earlier in the day. then MDC waited all day for him to return and shot him.

[badtwoface]

yeah sad ;[

[HoosInDaHowse]

why the wink?

[Titan157]

Their last time playing together as the Beatles. Simply amazing!

[therecordholder]

its a wonder how any of them wernt assinated

[gorillazbmx]

John Lennon was.

[therecordholder]

no on the roof top

[Bananplukkerne]

Oh. I think Randomm4 was making fun. It's called irony ;)

[GeezYouAreDumb]

Randomm4- Read my user name... It fits you perfectly! The Simpsons? What a mindless generation... The future? Be afraid, be very afraid...

[sukia39]

Radomm4 this happened in 1969 WAY before the simpsons sooo

[randomm4]

Whoa, just like in the Simpsons! It's funny how things in cartoons end up happening in real life!

[therecordholder]

the simpsons was a pardory of this

[g1ovann1991]

they call tht a parody and the cartoons get then from things tht happen in real life not vise versa

[naruto487]

yep

[fanofsandler]

did they do this without telling people or somthing?

[Simp1989]

I wish I could go back in time and sneak onto that roof or the roof next door. Simply amazing.

[Cervezasi]

Does it get much better than this?

[needlesneedles]

It doesn't

[SpyderPB819]

B. preston!!!

[0lebolme]

Love is more than just the look, you know

[jasenut85]

hey badillojoshua93 i ask to myself the same thing.. i guess she put a fucking japanese spell on him o something

[badillojoshua93]

what I will never understand is: Why the hell did John fall for Yoko, he could have had any girl he wanted, but he picked HER, I mean HER...

[masterconman31]

probably because she was different from every other girl, although not in a good way

[gelert95]

She killed the Beatles

[zeppelinstrat]

yes she did

[nupars]

damn i wish i was there

[musicdream822]

What a fantastic lunch hour for those near this outdoor show!!

[jshkings]

haha and to think that the concert "disrupted" businesses

pssht

[victoriatlatelpa]

Yoko Ono Looked like the Grudge back then. Why did John Lennon loved her so much?

[varushkaxx]

that's what I've been asking ever since...

doesn't make sense, does it?they are so different

[desmondandfriends]

prolly becase john was different he wanted a different woman than most guys' "california girl" dream (pardon the expression hardcore fans)

[therecordholder]

She really inspired him a lot

[gelert95]

I will never understand that either, but love is love! ^^Even if it kills the greatest band in the history of forever

[Diah1]

This was allegedly the very last performance the Beatles ever did together. I still miss them.

[MKfreak16]

wow i love that song "Get Back"

[theRealbrando2393]

I was completely overwhelmed when I saw The Beatles Rock Band @ E3 depict this performance. Amazing, and long live the Fab Four!

[link352809]

i just got in to the beatles this year

[gayfag666]

me too =)

[brofranomo]

Notice the men walking around with long hair? These guys started it thanks to Stews girlfriend.

[LoJack528]

Ok is John the lead guitarist or is it George because John is soloing in this.

[BeatleboyJd]

They usually switch off in some songs, for example 'Long Tall Sally' and 'You Can't Do That'.

John does those solos for those songs.

But George is the actual lead guitarist.

-jd

[LoJack528]

k thanks man

[nmzanie]

i heard some of the people in the streets were actually complaining about them at first.

Geez!

[nmzanie]

the reason it sounds up in pitch is because this video was sped up a very small amount. I will admit, i like the sound, but the regular one looks more natural.

Its on my youtube.

[nmzanie]

Theres this kid at my school who wont shut up saying "Queen is better than the Beatles."

Im not saying queen is bad,

but seriously man... :(

Who agrees?

[ScullyboyDX]

queen is queen they were awesome , but noone will ever be better than the beatles , without the beatles there would be no queen , nuff said

[trev820]

the pitch sounds a bit higher than regularly

[delax1981]

ALL THE TIME Best concert in the world!!!

[claudeepoo]

i wish i was there watching that concert! i wish i was alive to see them toether as a band!

[Georgetheelder]

Iconic

[Peglol96]

[2sdaysonthefon2me]

[JulianLennon1]

aww..'john lennon is the only thing missing in this world'...beautiful thought. with his belief he's still amongst us...

[seltaebeatles]

Don't forget George...

[akimotoshow]

I love Rooftop Concert.

The tune of beginning go out is also the highest.

Thank you JD!!

[abcbeatle]
