I am from Russia and The Beatles is my favourite Музыкальный Ансамбль лол. im listening this song when im drinkin vodka and танцую с медведями играющими на balalaika
@zatan130 Oh cool. I checked the definition of pastiche and I don't think they borrowed the style of the Beach Boys as much as they were influenced by it. It may have even been an homage. However, you definitely know more about this than me, so I will diferr to your Beatles wisdon.
In my Modern History class, we are doing the USSR and every time I read/hear the word USSR my mind automatically goes "I'm back in the USSR! You don't know how lucky you are, boy."
What McCartney said about this song in 1984:"I wrote that as a kind of Beach Boys parody. And "Back in the USA" was a Chuck Berry song, so it kinda took off from there. I just liked the idea of Georgia girls and talking about places like the Ukraine as if they were California, you know?...."
Ringo actually didn't play drums to this.... Paul played one track of drums, then george and john played tracks to it then they layered them all together!!
The single biggest mistake of today's youth is thinking that The Beatles shouldn't be played loud. They Really Should, and this song is a great testimony to that.
@Stevedore2010 Ph. D. in what? What was your thesis? Why if you have a Ph. D. are you preaching about a perfect America (even most americans who aren't drowned in propaganda can see through that bullshit)
I'll be honest, you dont have a Ph. D. your an idiot..
@Stevedore2010 As if the USA didn't steal territory from the mexicans, currently occupies Puerto Rico (they dont have elections there, wheres this freedom you all preach?)
The Phillipines? Didn't have them as part of your empire.
Guantanamo Bay?
The USA is just as bad as the Imperial powers of the 18th and 19th centuries, you are an Empire in all but name.
Indians forced to live in reservations, unintergrated schools, ghettos full of mainly blacks and hispanics?
I'm sorry, you may not be a racist nor a large part of your country, but unfortunatly your country has one of the worst records of abuse on a personal level due to ethnicity.
If by worshipping Kings and Queens you mean some democratic parliments over 100 years older than your own? right.
Why people think about politics? This song is not about politic. this song about man who back to his homeland. About people who lived in USSA (not about dictators). About nice girls and beautiful nature
WTF areyou all whittering on about - get a fucking grip - this is music - enjoy or go spout your shit elsewhere! rant over - ok - thisis a totally classic song and i love it :) peace guys x
The CIA have collectivley killed six million people in various geopolitical acts involving revolutions, conspiracies, government plots, human experiments and influential actions. They helped/sponsored Saddam Hussien, The Shah of Iran and Osama Bin Laden and Papa Doc. Look up Operations "CHAOS", "PAPERCLIP" and "MOCKINGBIRD". and read "Human Resource Exploitation Training Manual – 1983" which was published by the CIA.

@guitarist2195 Hundred years ago? LMFAO! The USSR just fell like 30 years ago... are you serious? And Georgia is still Soviet... so I don't even know what you're talking about.
@DremordDrale 20 years ago actually. But I was referring to some of the comments below my comment, which are talking about slavery, which ended in the U.S. over a hundred years ago. But I can see where you got confused
@CashMoneyDollar Once again, people were talking about slavery, which ended in America over 100 years ago, at the time I posted that comment. I was referring to that, not the USSR
@guitarist2195 lol! 100 years ago? you mean less than 21 years ago? being interested in world events and politics is not something to look down upon kid. its a shame intelect is not as rewarded as ignorance these days
@dirty1smelly1turban I was talking about slavery in the U.S., which ended over 100 years ago. At the time of my comment, there were people discussing slavery in the comments, so I commented about that, not the USSR. I should have been more specific though...
@Stevedore2010 Fucked up economy? You gotta be kidding me! the only reason that the Union had to abolish slavery is because the South had better economy than the North, not for stopping slavery! The North hated the slaves even more than the South, and that kids, is what we call hipocresy, and the fact that UK colonies used slaves (until 1807) IS NOT EXCUSE TO HAVE THEM! Mexico abolished slavery in 1814 (6 years before independence) and US. is Imperialist, therefore, your argument is invalid.
@LeCannoneux "the South had better economy than the North, not for stopping slavery! The North hated the slaves even more than the South, and that kids"
wat
The Southern economy was worse than its Northern equivalent in 1860, at about 30% of the national economy. By 1862, when the Emancipation Proclamation came around, it was complete shit. In 1870, it was hovering near 19%. That second part I'm not even going to dignify with an answer. Lost Cause Dumbass.
@Stevedore2010 You didn't kick UK'S ass! Your Spanish, Dutch and French renforcements did! Without those, the red coats would just simply destroy you as easily as writind "destroy". You didn't creat the U.S. the Irish, Chinese, Russian, Italian and German inmigrants did, so as Mexicans (well, latinoamericans in general) and Black slaves... And technically when the Independence come, you were from british mother and british father, technically british.. so just stop sayin bullshit man D:
@Stevedore2010 Britain abolished slavery in 1807. The British Empire did not crumble then. 19th century saw its height. Get your facts rights. The bottom line is this: Europeans created America. Whether it was fucked up or not is another issue. Without Europeans, there would be no USA. You wouldn't be where you are now if Europeans hadn't discovered and colonized America. Your saying that America is superior to Europe is a bit like a child saying it's superior to its mother.
@slabart12 I'm sorry, but you'll have to excuse my fellow American citizen here, he really doesn't know any better. The educational system here in the US is terrible, and basically from kindergarten through high school we are basically taught that we are superior to everyone else. While this is probably untrue, we are not told any different.
@Stevedore2010 I'm not even British but the fact is that Britain created USA. Without Britain, there wouldn't be USA. Europe is superior to USA because of its great history and achievements. You won't change that even if you get a million nuclear weapons. 'People like you are hateful and envious'. That's ridiculous. I have nothing against America. USA played positive role in both world wars. I just had to respond to your comment about 'America being superior to Europe'.
@Stevedore2010 Oh, really? I thought you had a civil war about slavery. How can you attack Europe for slavery if you were practising it yourselves? Britain abolished slavery in 1807 and USA in 1863 so don't try to take moral high ground on that. European civilization is far superior to any other- da Vinci, Copernicus, Galileo, Beethoven, Newton, Pasteur. Need I say more? European languages are spoken all over the world. You cannot even compare Europe to USA because it's just ridiculous.
@Stevedore2010 If the Europeans had not landed 'in a bunch of places', your country would not exist. There would be nobody to rebel against 'monarchical assholes' as you kindy referred to us Europeans. Had it not been for British, Spanish and French colonialism, USA would not exist! Americans are basically Europeans who colonized North America unless we are talking about Native Americans. Europe is superior to USA, always has been, always will be. Get over it!
@Stevedore2010 Are you serious? Europeans discovered the world and created America, which is just an offshot of European civilization. Europe has a history of thousands of years going back to ancient Greece and Rome. You speak a European language- English. America cannot be compared to countries such as Britain or France. Europe is superior to America.
HAHA I love all these political/historical fights going on. Guys the song is great, why can't we listen to it without fighting? I'm from America go ahead and say what you need to say about me. I don't care.
Last time I checked: America suck at their foreign policies (well, domestic ones too, but that's not our problem), and most Europeans who listen to this song actually consider it a breath of fresh air as opposed to most mainstream politics in the US.
i used to listen to this song when i was a kid, i'm still fifteen, but i mean when i was 10, and i loved it! i would listen to it everywhere and at any time of the day, it has such an awesome rythm and it's so joyfull.
man i wish music actually evolved and surprised me ever more... instead in this time it was subjected to a giant regression, just like anything in this decade.
Love this song. I am a proud American, but this is the funniest freaking song ever!!! Can't keep from smiling when I listen to it!!! You tell 'em Paul!!! :)
Why would you be a proud American? From a political standpoint: Your people is the most gullible, arrogant and easily manipulated people out there. I mean, sure, I love the surface of your country and all, but you salute the flag and sing about freedom whilst a monolithic corporate conglomeration is running your lives like you were common puppets! For your own sake: Isn't it time to stop being proud and start to fix things? You know, like Gorbachev did...
@TheFacelessActivist Nah bullshit, im sure you just say that because you are jealous that America has more freedom than your country. Besides, if you are from Europe, you should be more grateful to the US, come on, we saved you from the nazis, the communists and we are working to keep you safe from the Muslims, just have a little respect OK.
Wow... That's amazing, you honestly think that's true? Don't you realize that the instabilities in the middle east was brought on by the US in 1953 when they abolished democracy in Iran, installing a dictator in order to prevent them from nationalizing the oil, which then lead to the nuclear incident which allegedly justifies their presence there now?
And, my homeland has both gay marriage and universal healthcare, and our census data is way better than yours.
@TheFacelessActivist that time we actually saved Iran from communism, the terrorists took over later. I dunno were you get your information, must be from communist propaganda. I dont think is a good thing that your country's goverment has the power to force everyone to accept gay marriage or that you aren't able to chose any healthcare you want. That isn't good that just means you have less freedom.
Iran was never under any threat of communism, so it's odd to try and save them from it, given how they were an independent democracy aligned with the UK at the time being... Churchill always sounded like a Russian name to me.
Also: Freedom is about being able to do what you want. If you don't accept gay marriage: Don't marry a gay person! What you guys have is uniformity, and we didn't like it when the Nazis did it either.
@TheFacelessActivist i love my country because I was born and raised here, and I have pride in this land. No, not everything's perfect, some people will be in power that not everyone agrees with but that's just how things work. I don't think it's your place to call my fellow Americans gullible, arrogant, and easily manipulated, especially since all I did was say how much i love this song. I didn't say "That's stupid, the USSR sucks!" or anything like that. Why start an unnecessary argument?
Actually, you started it with your nationalist rhetoric and prejudices, I simply asked how one can be as self-destructive as to be proud of something so trivial as a country. But yeah, I can see how geopolitical tyranny is justified by an irrational attachment to imaginary lines drawn in the sand, and the patch of textile representing them.
I do admire the way you yanks prioritize things...
@TheFacelessActivist what??? what are you even talking about? are you replying to the right person? literally all i said was:
"Love this song. I am a proud American, but this is the funniest freaking song ever!!! Can't keep from smiling when I listen to it!!! You tell 'em Paul!!! :)"
How on EARTH is that prejudiced in any way? Look, I don't know your beef with America, but I haven't done anything except admire a song. Calm down.
@TheFacelessActivist Don't be silly. Geographical borders are basic and necessary parts of human survival, and are closely related to collective group identity - which is an even more necessary and natural part of human life and progress. "Nationalist rhetoric and prejudices"... Yeah, Jesus Christ... Here's one for ya: Marxist and cosmopolitan rhetoric and prejudice.
@TheFacelessActivist Lol, just trying to argue in accordance with how reality actually works, not how I'd like it to work. Labels... probably the best thing the Left ever had.
You're right, it is pragmatic to define the worth of a human being based on his geographical location which is defined by imaginary lines drawn up and preserved since the ages of conquest. It's not stupid or borderline insane at all... As a matter of fact: Let's bring back bloodletting and inquisitions too, people are too squeamish these days.
Or: We could stop thinking that rich people are right just because they monopolize media outlets.
@TheFacelessActivist When did I ever claim that we should define the "worth" of a human being based on his geographical location? I didn't. However, we should define the "value" of a human being based on group identity, which is defined primarily by race, and culture and in some cases religion. Who ever claimed that rich people are right just because they monopolize the media outlets? Not me. Maybe the lemmings, but not me.

Americans are basically Europeans who colonized North America unless we are talking about Native Americans. Europe is superior to USA, always has been, always will be. Get over it!

@Stevedore2010 Are you serious? Europeans discovered the world and created America, which is just an offshot of European civilization. Europe has a history of thousands of years going back to ancient Greece and Rome. You speak a European language- English. America cannot be compared to countries such as Britain or France. Europe is superior to America.

Last time I checked: America suck at their foreign policies (well, domestic ones too, but that's not our problem), and most Europeans who listen to this song actually consider it a breath of fresh air as opposed to most mainstream politics in the US.

i used to listen to this song when i was a kid, i'm still fifteen, but i mean when i was 10, and i loved it! i would listen to it everywhere and at any time of the day, it has such an awesome rythm and it's so joyfull.
man i wish music actually evolved and surprised me ever more... instead in this time it was subjected to a giant regression, just like anything in this decade.

@maroon5lovers15
Why would you be a proud American? From a political standpoint: Your people is the most gullible, arrogant and easily manipulated people out there. I mean, sure, I love the surface of your country and all, but you salute the flag and sing about freedom whilst a monolithic corporate conglomeration is running your lives like you were common puppets! For your own sake: Isn't it time to stop being proud and start to fix things? You know, like Gorbachev did...
TheFacelessActivist 3 months ago 3
@TheFacelessActivist Nah bullshit, im sure you just say that because you are jealous that America has more freedom than your country. Besides, if you are from Europe, you should be more grateful to the US, come on, we saved you from the nazis, the communists and we are working to keep you safe from the Muslims, just have a little respect OK.

Wow... That's amazing, you honestly think that's true? Don't you realize that the instabilities in the middle east was brought on by the US in 1953 when they abolished democracy in Iran, installing a dictator in order to prevent them from nationalizing the oil, which then lead to the nuclear incident which allegedly justifies their presence there now?
And, my homeland has both gay marriage and universal healthcare, and our census data is way better than yours.
TheFacelessActivist 3 months ago
@TheFacelessActivist that time we actually saved Iran from communism, the terrorists took over later. I dunno were you get your information, must be from communist propaganda. I dont think is a good thing that your country's goverment has the power to force everyone to accept gay marriage or that you aren't able to chose any healthcare you want. That isn't good that just means you have less freedom.
cakemaster303 3 months ago
@cakemaster303
Iran was never under any threat of communism, so it's odd to try and save them from it, given how they were an independent democracy aligned with the UK at the time being... Churchill always sounded like a Russian name to me.
Also: Freedom is about being able to do what you want. If you don't accept gay marriage: Don't marry a gay person! What you guys have is uniformity, and we didn't like it when the Nazis did it either.

@TheFacelessActivist i love my country because I was born and raised here, and I have pride in this land. No, not everything's perfect, some people will be in power that not everyone agrees with but that's just how things work. I don't think it's your place to call my fellow Americans gullible, arrogant, and easily manipulated, especially since all I did was say how much i love this song. I didn't say "That's stupid, the USSR sucks!" or anything like that. Why start an unnecessary argument?
maroon5lovers15 2 months ago
@maroon5lovers15
Actually, you started it with your nationalist rhetoric and prejudices, I simply asked how one can be as self-destructive as to be proud of something so trivial as a country. But yeah, I can see how geopolitical tyranny is justified by an irrational attachment to imaginary lines drawn in the sand, and the patch of textile representing them.
I do admire the way you yanks prioritize things...

How on EARTH is that prejudiced in any way? Look, I don't know your beef with America, but I haven't done anything except admire a song. Calm down.
maroon5lovers15 2 months ago
@TheFacelessActivist Don't be silly. Geographical borders are basic and necessary parts of human survival, and are closely related to collective group identity - which is an even more necessary and natural part of human life and progress. "Nationalist rhetoric and prejudices"... Yeah, Jesus Christ... Here's one for ya: Marxist and cosmopolitan rhetoric and prejudice.

You're right, it is pragmatic to define the worth of a human being based on his geographical location which is defined by imaginary lines drawn up and preserved since the ages of conquest. It's not stupid or borderline insane at all... As a matter of fact: Let's bring back bloodletting and inquisitions too, people are too squeamish these days.
Or: We could stop thinking that rich people are right just because they monopolize media outlets.
TheFacelessActivist 2 months ago
@TheFacelessActivist When did I ever claim that we should define the "worth" of a human being based on his geographical location? I didn't. However, we should define the "value" of a human being based on group identity, which is defined primarily by race, and culture and in some cases religion. Who ever claimed that rich people are right just because they monopolize the media outlets? Not me. Maybe the lemmings, but not me.
