  • Shows how little I knew of the Beatles, this album still has it!!

  • Happy birthday fro yesterday George! <3

  • hahahaha nice remastered version... dumbass

  • Paul's Fuzz Bass dominates!

  • *2009 remasteR* *uploads in 240p* you cunt.

  • I like how in this song he is basically saying, go do whatever you want to do.. I dont give a damn anymore! haha Love ALL The Beatles... Fav one is the "Quiet One"

  • this sounds like John Lennon singing overdubs with John Lennon I do not hear any other Beatle singing here.

  • @wideosvatcher so much george harrison its not even funny, you sir are a dumbass.

  • You are one miserable MORON !

  • I hate when people conform to things just because their favorite artist likes it or does it. The beatles did drgs, I don't. See, "Do what you want to do" just like George says. "Think For Yourself" everyone!!!!!!!

    Georgeous, Pauliful, Johntastic and Ringamazing!!!!!!

  • go fuzzbass!!!!! this is lead bass at its finest, simple, elegant, gritty, and fun.

  • @bassharmonica1 yep, one of my favourite bass lines ever. those high notes in the verses make my spine shiver

  • Awesome song 3 it's so sad I never got to see them live :'( but i'm still hoping to see at least Paul and ringo, that'd be awesome ^^

  • I loove Paul's backup singing!

  • DEAR DIARY

    OP WAS VERY STRAIGHT TODAY

  • George ten years without you!, R.I.P

  • now in the modern times, this song would be called, 'Fuck that Bitch.' by The Beatles

  • @JohnathanHillbery Indeed. LOL.

  • @JohnathanHillbery

    Good Grief. This song reminds me of advice mom gave me to think for myself.

  • George Harison

  • @franbeatle You mean George HarRison.

  • @franbeatle I'd probably like that, IF YOU ACTUALLY SPELLED GEORGE HARRISON'S NAME RIGHT.

  • @franbeatle George HaRRisoN

  • he should have made another verse

  • please everybody check my playlist when on acid and say what you think and what are also good groups for being high on acid

    Cheers

  • That frickin' fuzz bass makes my eyes cross and toes curl...and, crap, I'm a dude. "The ruins of the life that you had in mind." Gawd, could those bastards put out!

  • Great chorus- pyschedelic

  • @LiteracyLabyrinth2

    The chorus isn't remotely psychedelic- it's the verses and the "fuzz bass" that make this song good.

  • This is my personal anthem.

  • This is my only favorite song from George Harrison. :)

  • funk music ?

  • @chaselovespizza Thank you, I'm flattered! The story goes: This popped up as a prospective cover for a band I play in (Gallus.), and I was really impressed with the fuzz bass from Paul; also, my lead guitarist has a Heavy Electronics fuzz grind pedal that I plugged into my bass one day, and I was fascinated with the sounds. Anywho, I researched it and found some info on beatlesbible. com and beatlesebooks. com/think-for-yourself . Listen carefully, you can hear the 2 discernible parts!

  • five people can't think for themselves.....

  • What kind of moron can possible vote this thumbs down?

  • great beatles song.love it :)

    

  • Good song!

  • Harrison was by far my favorite Beatle......I would rather listen to the same George song all day than a bunch of Lennon and McCartney tunes

  • i love the rythmn voice and the fuzz bass

  • Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

  • @GolliwoggMusic who are you "golliwogg" approving songs and what not?

  • wait a min ute wait a MINUTE!!!!! no, kirk out.  I have heard this song 100's of times and never caught the ?phase shift? at 1:32-3 was that added by the proprieter?

  • Paul on fuzz bass.

    Cool...

  • My response to people who believe in Warren Jeffs', the pedophile polygamist, bullshit.

  • the fuzz bass is amazing

  • i have to say.. rubber soul to me is by far the best album. help! is my second favorite.. i grew up listening to the beatles thanks to my uncle michael..  memories upon endless memories.. all the albums are great in historical proportion... this one really holds a great one for me.. thanks beatles...

  • Lotsa people are saying they think of this as being about a friendship; but I've always thought of it as more referring to a group or an authority figure. I guess both interpretations work just fine; any way you slice it, GREAT lyrics :D

  • @Swimmingturtles24 Haha, that's an amazing analogy!

  • @pladuk68 I totally agree with u

  • This is a great tune, about friendships that go stale. Our wonnuerful wonnerful Beatle peopleses. AH!

  • @Swimmingturtles24 Now I'm really craving some George, I mean hummus....ah hell I want both.

  • @Swimmingturtles24 George is my fav and I like hummus, u r a MIND READER!! :)

  • If I sang this song it would be referring to a "friend" OMG rubber soul relates to me!

  • The first song Paul used his Rickenbacker 4001S to record with! (:

  • Such a good song when you're baked. Paul McCartneys backup harmony vocals are so dope!!! And George's songs are always my favorite. 

  • @Swimmingturtles24

    Haha, made me laugh so hard.

  • i like this song

  • @Swimmingturtles24 Hummus will never be the same now.

  • a perfect song from the best rock group of all-time

  • I wonder who George was referring to in this song.I know a few blokes Id send it to.

  • the beat i've ever heard ... that's sooooooo awesome

  • I never heard this song before, I listen to it the first time now and I LOVE it. :)

  • Comment removed

  • The fuzzy bass really adds to this song. I LOVE IT!!!!

  • @yonnystarr that's not bass fuckstick.... that's fucking george harrison's guitar

  • @nirvana20202020 You have a terrible attitude. Also, you're wrong.

    " In a departure from all precedent at the time, the song has two bass lines, a normal one and one created by Paul McCartney's then-unique application of a fuzzbox to his bass."

    "Think for yourself" on wiki

  • @nirvana20202020 Bad troll.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @nirvana20202020 Yes It's Paul McCartney playing the bass with a fuzz pedal.

    Harrison plays a bass-line with his guitar in "Two of us" for example, but no in this song.

  • @nirvana20202020 no, no, no....there are two bass lines going at the same time....one is a bass with a fuzz effect pedel and a standard sounding bass. That was not Harrisons "6 string guitar" making that distorted fuzz tone",,,,it even said "paul on fuzz bass" on the back of the record album

  • @inkey2 Yeah, The fuzz part is played on a Rickenbacker with a mk 1.5 ToneBender, and the lower bass part on a Hofner. Pretty awesome...you start dissecting Beatles tunes and the innovation was way ahead of its time!

  • @puregallusmusic how do you know all the music details i mean me i dont relly care but its cool how u know all of that stuff

  • @Swimmingturtles24 what a retarded comparison! i love hummus faggot

  • Possibly my favorite Beatles song on possibly my favorite album by any band.

  • 3 people have "caused more misery"!

  • I fuckin' love THE BEATLES. Sorry, I just had to share it with the world..

  • This song brings back so many memories.

  • Who cares if the chicken's blue? Just stew what you want to stew, but think for my health 'cos I'm in the restaunt, too

  • @Caboose565 LOL! :-D

  • i love george

  • my résumé: best of all in 1966 & 1967, just as many other bands, too(Cream, Doors, Who, etc.)

  • rubber soul was the album they´re starting lsd experience, wasn´t it?

    for me it´s their first psychedelic album

    before it they´re to ... öh... rock´n´rolly?

    (my inglish iz bad-o)

    %)

  • Three people don't know how to think for themselves...

  • @lettuceshredder yeh, I can agree with it - J.L. was the only one, perhaps G.H. sum years later a little bit, too

  • @lettuceshredder Why do assholes like you post these kind of retarded comments? you think you're all clever making these kind of jokes.. y dont u try thinking for urself instead of copying all these cocksuckers of utube posting comments a 3 year old would make. fuck off u little faggot, go suck ur dad's dick or something.

  • @nirvana20202020 Wow Nirvana "has perfect vision twice over" you seem a bit angry. Not trying to win a pulitzer, just having fun wondering who would take the time to look up and listen to a great Beatles song and say they dislike it. Could be some trolls, who cares? Life's too short my man, plus I just got laid, so who gives a shit what you just posted?!

  • @lettuceshredder so basically you're suggesting that the dislike button shouldn't be used at all... is that what you're saying? it was put on yuotube for a reason asshole. "445 people were hit by a car" "567 people don't know how to drive a car" "1064 people are fools on a hill"...... You're pathetic... fucking asshole...

  • Comment removed

  • @lettuceshredder you just got laid with a man probably.... you stupid motherfucker faggot ass cunt. i gotta hand it to you though the perfect vision thing was pretty funny

  • The beatles forever ^^

    

  • Harrison had some voice.

    And - evidently - a lot of song-writing talent to go with it! :D

  • Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind- Dr.Seuss

    :D

  • dont you mean

    R.I.P--- Paul McCartney

    John Lennon & Ringo Starr?

    AND Billy Preston, those 4 Beatles are dead... :(

    Bless you Ringo!

  • @sacramentolove PAUL ISN'T DEAD!

  • @Idotdot23 well i think that paul is dead, thats what i believe...

  • @sacramentolove well you think wrong how could a guy look just like paul and have the same talent as him if hes dead

  • @hendrixplusmustain they weren't but they looked familiar so billy shears got plastic surgery, he was TALLER than paul, he was a righty, and he took speech classes. the reason they tried hiding paul's death was because some beatles fans would commit suicide if they found out, so the 3 beatles were under maxwell's (some tough enforcement worker) supervision to write and how to make they're album covers. watch "george harrison's last testimony" for the evidence, it will change your mind.

  • @sacramentolove ok dude your going to believe a voice recording of some one who sounds like george harrison. thats fucking stupid and as for him being taller and a righty look at the video is paul mccartney dead? conspiracy nonsense! also watch paul is not dead pitcher comparison but im 100% sure hes not dead and if you want to believe every rumor your told thats your problem

  • @hendrixplusmustain kid dont get angry just because i dont believe in the same things you do! i have my own opinions, so relax. in the video i saw paul's dead body, and that image just haunts me every time i hear of the beatles, it'll never go away. if you dont like what i believe in then thats your problem, if you're a fan of lennon, you would MOST CERTAINLY wouldn't do this. will therebe a problem if i say i dont believe in death, because same for lennon he didnt either. so ignore the comment!

  • @sacramentolove kwait rait - Paul the Hohlbirne(means hollow fruit) Ringo´s more sum kind of ... homely? close to the people? (german word for it is "volksnah"-I can´t translate)

  • This is the first space trip stuff in the sixties. The Byrds really followed this in their psychedelic space albums.

  • RIP George Harrison...

  • 3 people couldnt think for themselves

  • Shouldn't "Rubber," "Soul," "Yellow" and "Sumbmarine" be in the tags? For the album names.

  • I like their break up songs

  • George was clearly the best member of the group. I cant stand McCartney's or Lennon's voice. Too British sounding. Harrison made the band, as a matter afact I wouldnt be suprised if later in the band he played the other member's instruments for them.

  • @DMPFace 'Too British sounding'? Fuck off cunt!!

  • Best guitar riffs ever

  • happy birthday george harrison

  • Paul on fuzz bass!!

  • Happy Birthday George!! :-D

  • not a big beatles fan, but loves every song by harrisson with the band

  • best song of the album.

  • who dislike this

    officiously a justin bieber fan

    i h8 u

  • Mucho fuzz bass! And the bass IS the lead instrument on this classic!

  • 2 people don't get it :)

  • Oh , Georgie <33 (:

  • Great breakup song

  • Best Beatles song ever

  • Beow beow beow ba ba beow neow beow beow BEOW NEEOOOWW!

  • seriously i'm sick of people hating on mccartneys songwriting. has anyone ever listened to songs like "paperback writer", "yesterday", "eleanor rigby", or "im looking through you" from this album. not to mention the countless other songs he was primarily the main writer on. john and george are always called the songwriting geniuses and pauls always made fun of. when you break it down he wrote just as many gems, if not more.

  • @chjeterblows I really hope you are trolling and I am just stupid enough to take the bait. It's usually George that's considered the underrated songwriter, Paul is a genius composer and lyricist - I thought this was common knowledge!!! I don't think ANYONE makes fun of Paul.

  • @jonherewhosthere

    baob, baob, baob...

    watch?v=0auCDOERZyE

  • I really love the guitar stuff in this song and the harmonics. Great song.

  • 2 people tried thinkin for themselves and failed!!

  • I love the fuzzed bass!

  • this song, as everything related to george, is ahead of its time...

  • 2 ppl can't think for themselves

  • @squmak Lol

    So True.

  • It's a wonder I didn't play a hole in this album...glad CDs can't be worn out.

    What songs!!

  • Bogus...if true,I should clarify

  • later on I hear they didn't put as much production time in on George's songs as they did John and Paul...Bogus I say!

  • I loved George he was wanted for his excellent guitar but only got 2 songs per album,john and Paul spplit the rest

  • @Syzygy60 and ringo got one song but Paul still wrote all ringos song so i gues it was still paul

  • @PreetySnazzy George wrote many of Ringo's solo songs too.

  • GEORGE! So underrated; in every way!

  • Amazing Harrison!

  • My absolute favourite on Rubber Soul.

  • I was always taught to think for yourself by my father.I loved this song when I first heard it, my father hated it when I took Psychedelics and really started thinking for myself Peace and love

  • vintage harrison

  • Always loved Rubber Soul, blew me away when it first came out. :)

  •  to think these guys never had a normal life, quite a relief given the ET format I love this song

  • who's singing the falceto in the chorus?

  • @chippy783 McCartney I imagine.

  • @chippy783 Mc Cartney

  • God, that fuzz bass. It's going to haunt my slumber until I learn it completely.

  • @GeddyYeti2112 First use ever of a fuzz box.

  • @SumnerMurrayRedstone First use BY A BEATLE, that is. The Ventures' "The 2000 lb. Bee" (from 1962) is generally considered to be the first-ever use of a fuzzbox.

  • Fantastic!

  • I love Harrison's lyrics - accusatory, with a dash of sarcasm

    "Although your minds okay, try thinking more for your own sake".

    McCartney could never have written that line. Lennon could've had a bash, I suppose...

  • @stoprainingonme Although Lennon was genius !!! But Harrison was to!!!

  • @stoprainingonme Although your mind's OPAQUE.

  • @SumnerMurrayRedstone Oh yeah.  Cheers

  • i have this song stuck in my head

  • @ajcool411 welcome to the Beatles.

  • Beautiful.Thank You!

  • cool my favorite song by the beatles!
