the beauty of the beatles is in finding new songs and i especially like to look into their solo work ,i keep finding songs i love especially from george harrisons work , what a band they were , a force of nature .
YOOO THIS SONG I NEVER HEARD BEFORE..HOW COME ITS NOT IN THE MILK AND HONEY ALBUM OR IN THE DOUBLE FANTASY? THIS IS NOT HIS LAST SONG EVEN DOUGH I NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE..GORW OLD ALONG WITH ME IS HIS LAST SONG ACTUALY DAYS BEFORE HE DIED
This was supposed to be on Anthology 3 with the living Beatles recording on it, but George didn't like how Real Love and Free As A Bird turned out, so they didn't use this.
i wish he never fuckin came to new york. ah what are you gunna do. he deserved to become a nice wise old man, after everything he went through. psh, idk.
@BeatleMathYT how can we get Paul to finish this stuff and put it out he also done some stuff with George called all for love unfinished the only Mccartney @ Harrison composition
@BenefitOfMrKite I find it incredibly ironic and sad that Lennon's last photo was signing his last album for the man who would destroy everything he was.
man your cool as shit. how did it go in your head. "man, hey everyone watch this, im going to go actually take time to search a john lennon song, and disrespect a man that was murdered by putting "i like chapman" in the comment box." then im gonna be fucking awesome, ppl are gonna be so mad, and there gonna stop listening to john lennon, because im so cool, and there gonna flame my page., man this is how i get all the girls" is that pretty much how it went in your head ? get a life pal
I doubt the idiot who calls himself SlimeTron5000 (at least the slime part is right) has ever been with a woman or man or whatever the thing desires. It also desires attention even if it's bad attention, so ignore the lonely putz. He's a zero,a loser, a nothing just like the scuzbag that killed John Lennon.
@wildenfree In my opinion we shouldn't talk shit about Mr.Chapman even if he is a fucker or not because that was the whole point of John's songs... to Live As One and a Brotherhood Man :)
@xBigxBossx93 No, sorry I don,t think John would had forgiven the murder of Yoko, I know Yoko hates this man with a vengence, if this man shot a member of your family any notion of " Love and forgiveness " goes out of the window, no Im sorry
Their is and will always be a limit. He robbed Yoko of a husband/father/ lover and robbed me and my generation of an idol..rot in hell fucker !
@xBigxBossx93 yes, to live as one, but when you have a cancerous growth on your body (i.e. the one), you cut it off. i agree with bigxboss above. "love and forgiveness" has its limits, and this went beyond the limit (for me).

The big secret is that Yoko is actually a "man"!!! John was bisexual although for the first 6 years he thought Yoko was an extremely homely woman who he felt very sorry for! Sean of course was Lennon's child by another asian girlfriend named Mi Lya.When John found out Yoko was really a man he was too embarassed to publicly acknowledge it and the rest,as they say,is... history!!!
if radio head came before lennon yes this might sound like radio head head.......... radio head rips off the beatles they completely stole sexy sadie one of their songs
In a 1969 interview, John Lennon stated one of his favourite songs was "I've Been Good To You" by Smokey Robinson & The Miracles. The Miracles song begins with the line - Look what you've done / You made a fool out of someone - compared to Sexy Sadie's - What have you done? / You made a fool of everyone. [wikipedia]
wow ok i guess you still learn something new everyday, ok i wont argue with what you say im only 20 yrs old so i dont really no who influenced the beatles i do no that however the beatles have one way or another influenced just about everysingle modern band so when i hear this sounds like radio head im quick to say nay radio head sounds like beatles anyway u get what i mean well im gonna check that song out rite now thanks for the fact
this is so great. it's in its earliest recorded form and its still awesome. imagine if it were finished! imagine if lennon had lived! man, you can only wonder what great songs he would've written...
This is a beautiful song and only hints at what songs we lost and never got to hear when John was taken from us.
JFK and aliens... hmm! I think the CIA may have been interested in killing JFK for being soft on Communists in Cuba and the missile crisis and Vietnam and also for allowing the Civil Rights Movement to make it into US Law... but maybe I'm a cynic. But aliens had nothing to do with it.
I think if Sean were old enough at the time, John would have included him on if not all most of the songs he ws working on. And Paul was thinking of using some archival stuff from George if their gonna do le song :) George -N- John Rest In Peace
Are you guys crazy or what? Try just enjoying the music and if you don't like it or want to read nonsensical and ignorant stuff into it, satan, ok, what a bunch of crap! If you don't like the music or the musician, don't come to the sight. Do you just like to argue or what?

Well i'm not completely sure,but i think paul wanted to release it on the Anthology 3, replacng A new beginning,but the song wasn't really there's and wouldn't be much of collaboration between the fabs.

No wonder they couldn't re-unite, George didn't want to do anything but sit on his ass....lol
And John Lennon was bigfoot as he crossed Abbey Road, he is seen as bigfoot. Paul behind him. Was Lennon an alien? He had ufo encounter as well in NY. Strange.
I don't know if that was a serious knock at George, but if it is, you're an idiot. They all agreed that if they didn't like the finished product they could veto it. George did many things, musically and for socially bettering the world; ask Dhani.
I was trying to be funny but that does make me an idiot. George seem like a nice guy but I am not into the religion he was into from India. He is no longer around. But the Beatles did drugs and so this why some people do not like them and Lennon was a heroin addict at one time. Not a good role model for the kids.
Every single person you know has used drugs at some point or another in their lives. Do you drink? Do you take pain medicine? The only difference between them is the fact that they distort your perceptions. Religion does the same, and I assume you are an advocate for Christianity, judging by what you've said.
Admittedly, after Yoko twisted and perverted most everything that John was, he wasn't much of a role model. They didn't intend to be role models anyway.

I have drunk and I am not saying that I never had. I just got a little disillusioned with the Beatles after I find out about that Crowley on their album cover and Yellow Submarine, there is a Satanic salute
above John's head. Also, on Revelation 9, Satan is mentioned more than once by Yoko or someone while played backwards. So you're right, Yoko perverted John and she is caused the group to break up as well. She was always in the studio with them. I consider myself Christian.
so i guess you prefer the "i wanna hold your hand" stuff over the "Revolver- Abbey Road stuff?"
and also don't pay attention to who the people are, listen to the music, that's what matters, it doesnt matter who was hindi or about secret messages on album covers, just enjoy the music
I'm not sure why anybody would necessarily assume you're Christian. There are a lot of other religions besides Christianity that exist outside of India. I don't think the Beatles thought about being role models. Heck, at the time of their greatest successes they weren't that old themselves. As one gets older there usually is a tendency to learn from one's mistakes. I used to drink but gave it up after I realized there was no point in it anymore. Besides I need to set an example for my kids.
You obviously don't have a clue about George's religion and therefore have no business commenting on it. Hinduism predates Christianity and Christianity stole a lot of its ideas about Jesus from Hindu ideas about Krishna. Go read up on it.
at 2:43, theres some sorta otehr sound in teh back round i dont know what it is but its sounds great. verry beutifle song i dont think theres anywork neede on it, i mean teh crude recording, honest, its sounds great and works with it verry well. teh piano is just hauntng, realy and so is johns voice as it always is. rest in peace john
Why is it that superb artists such as John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Marilin Monroe, are taken in mysterious and unexpected circumstances, while people like Britney spears, paris hilton and tom cruise torture us with thier eternal mediocrity for years and years and years and years????????......
i completely agree with you and also music is shit now adays! i mean does anyone use there minds to write music these days? i mean elliott smith and bright eyes are exceptions. anyways someone with talent and intelligence comes out from the ground and burns all the liars and leaves a blanket of ash on the ground
because of satan! only kidding! all the real artist's live on the edge's of society, away from the hype, because they're just regular people, with extraordinary talent and since they don't play the game well?
I've always been curious about the picture at 0:13. The guy on the right looks like the character Mark Chapman from the movie Chapter 27. I don't know if that's what Mark really looked like. But I don't know, it reminds me of him. *shutters*
A lady, whos name I forget, took the last photo of John in New York. He's nude and he's hugging Yoko, whos dressed. She also took a photo of Whopie Goldberg nude in a bathtub full of milk.
This song was recorded on one of those little portable cassette players. John always had one on his piano. Just like "Real Love" and "Free as a Bird" Grow Old with Me" etc. If John had taken this tune into the studio..It wouldve been his next HIT! Don't get me wrong, sounds good now..but this could of sounded Excellent!
According to a BBC documentary I saw a few years ago, he was killed by the US secret service, because he was becoming an embarrassment with his anti-war and anti-government protests. Supposedly the assassin had been brainwashed a la "Manchurian Candidate".
Hmmmm...Remeniscent of " I don't want to lose You"
Tuff for many to hear the mistakes, but to me,it's very beautiful...just a small mistake, & VIOLA! A Diamond borne out of the rough! Never to be borne again
what a beautiful song...thats the god of music the true power the real lennon legend he was hiding inside him.always when that 'john' comes out, magic songs are created
Paul wants to finish he can finish it. If Ringo wants the same, more power to him. If the millions of you want to try give it your best. I just think Paul should get the obvious nod. Ed
It sounds great no matter which version you listen to. Sure, it would be nice to have it completed by Paul and Ringo, but it's also fine in this simple, haunting, original version. Does anyone have this in MP3 form?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I love the Beatles. They are the greatest group to ever exist...bar none! I have all their albums and liked everyone of the albums (except "Yellow Submarine"). As individual artists, the Beatles were not as good. But when I hear a song that I don't like, I have no regrets in telling you how I feel. Not every man can write a good song everytime. Anyway, this song sucks..period. For many years Paul and John fed off each other to produce classics. As individual artists, they are not as good.
If Yoko gave it to the surviving Beatles to perform then i think Paul and Ringo should finish the song. If the lyrics are known and complete then Paul just needs to perform the song with minimal arranging etc...
The song is one of John's best so it needs to be recorded properly although this demo is hauntingly beautiful and tragic of course.
If Paul needs to add a bit of lyric then it could be one of the last Lennon/McCartney songs.
No, I think it would be nice for Paul to do it. That's as close as we can get to a Lennon-McCartney collaboration anymore, and it is sad that John Lennon is gone.\
i think that paul should not finish this and leave it at it's unfinished state and just put the song to rest because it belongs to john. john loved paul as if he were a close brother, but he would not want him to finish the song.

You obviously don't have a clue about George's religion and therefore have no business commenting on it. Hinduism predates Christianity and Christianity stole a lot of its ideas about Jesus from Hindu ideas about Krishna. Go read up on it.

Why is it that superb artists such as John Lennon, Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Marilin Monroe, are taken in mysterious and unexpected circumstances, while people like Britney spears, paris hilton and tom cruise torture us with thier eternal mediocrity for years and years and years and years????????......

I've always been curious about the picture at 0:13. The guy on the right looks like the character Mark Chapman from the movie Chapter 27. I don't know if that's what Mark really looked like. But I don't know, it reminds me of him. *shutters*

lol, yes, that's a really famous picture - john lennon signed Mark Chapman his new records a few hours before he shot him.

A lady, whos name I forget, took the last photo of John in New York. He's nude and he's hugging Yoko, whos dressed. She also took a photo of Whopie Goldberg nude in a bathtub full of milk.

This song was recorded on one of those little portable cassette players. John always had one on his piano. Just like "Real Love" and "Free as a Bird" Grow Old with Me" etc. If John had taken this tune into the studio..It wouldve been his next HIT! Don't get me wrong, sounds good now..but this could of sounded Excellent!

chocolatesodainc 3 years ago 7
According to a BBC documentary I saw a few years ago, he was killed by the US secret service, because he was becoming an embarrassment with his anti-war and anti-government protests. Supposedly the assassin had been brainwashed a la "Manchurian Candidate".

Totally. People who believe some random fan killed Lennon refuse to look at the big picture. RFK, JFK, MLK, Lennon, take a closer look.

Believe it or not, JFK was murdered by the CIA. The gunman was in the motorcade! JFK was going to make public the truth about Aliens.
The truth is, they are here and have always been here. JFK had to be silenced!

Paul wants to finish he can finish it. If Ringo wants the same, more power to him. If the millions of you want to try give it your best. I just think Paul should get the obvious nod. Ed

It sounds great no matter which version you listen to. Sure, it would be nice to have it completed by Paul and Ringo, but it's also fine in this simple, haunting, original version. Does anyone have this in MP3 form?

I love the Beatles. They are the greatest group to ever exist...bar none! I have all their albums and liked everyone of the albums (except "Yellow Submarine"). As individual artists, the Beatles were not as good. But when I hear a song that I don't like, I have no regrets in telling you how I feel. Not every man can write a good song everytime. Anyway, this song sucks..period. For many years Paul and John fed off each other to produce classics. As individual artists, they are not as good.

If Yoko gave it to the surviving Beatles to perform then i think Paul and Ringo should finish the song. If the lyrics are known and complete then Paul just needs to perform the song with minimal arranging etc...
The song is one of John's best so it needs to be recorded properly although this demo is hauntingly beautiful and tragic of course.
If Paul needs to add a bit of lyric then it could be one of the last Lennon/McCartney songs.

No, I think it would be nice for Paul to do it. That's as close as we can get to a Lennon-McCartney collaboration anymore, and it is sad that John Lennon is gone.\

i think that paul should not finish this and leave it at it's unfinished state and just put the song to rest because it belongs to john. john loved paul as if he were a close brother, but he would not want him to finish the song.
