People think John or George were the deep Beatles, but actually Paul was the deepest. To learn how to hear the hidden message in Beatles songs, search "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then open The Present and read through the section about The Beatles.

Es curioso que Clapton termine tocando una canción, de George, inspirada por una mujer que también paso por su guitarra (Layla) y por sus sabanas, y de alguna manera comparte en un sentido mas profundo esta canción con George.
With exception of the ukulele bit, this is more powerful than recorded version. At some point George returns, the music suddenly changes, the guys really get into it.
ezduzit, if you were a beatles fan then you should be simply elated that so many legends came out to honor george. its very rare that so many music gods come out on one stage to give a performance like this, thats what makes it so special
easyduzit you're a douche, this is a great version and all of these extra people make the song awesome. this was made in george's honor and you're a straight up douche for dissing it. plus all of these "old fucks" are the best out there, so you're a bitch
one of the greatest love ballads ever... funny how many claim that george wrote this for pattie boyd, who ended up marrying eric clapton (singing with paul) after her divorce from george...
I stand by my guess, definitely not Jeff Lynn. The guy on Paul's left as we view it, (o.8secs) is Andy Fair-weather-Low; you might be able to distinguish him from Jeff Lynn. But to help you, Jeff is the one is the one with the beard (Andy does not have one) check out EC's unplugged u-tube for more AF-L
Hey, I think I may have figured it out. The original song starts in the key of C, and for the bridge modulates to A. However this version is different. The verse first starts in B flat, and for the first bridge modulates to G (the equivalent of C modulating to A), however, for the solo, they go to the key of what the original song was, and remain switching between C and A for the duration of the song. Simplified, I guess you could say everything up until the solo is moved down two semitones.
Possibly, but it could also be because it's a more effective key to play this son on uke. A lot of keys aren't very good uke wise, because open chordings sound much better...
I'm 50 yrs old and i've been listening to the Beatles since i was 6 . This is the best version of this song i ever heard other then the Beatles themselves . Hands down . Period ...
if that is a 'cuss' then it is a pretty shit one as i go to one of the best secondary schools/colleges in London and i come from England, u fucking cunt ass knob
Check again. We typically capitalize the first letter of every sentence and the personal pronoun "I." You could also mix in some punctuation, such as commas and periods to end your sentences and clauses. And, did you mean "post" when you wrote "port?" If I were you, my friend, I'd march right back into that fancy school you go to in London and demand your money back, because you're certainly not getting what you're paying for.
Unfortunately firstly i am still in full time education
Also I do not go to a private school so i find you're last comment ignorant and naive as you have made the presumption that all great schools are private, a big mistake indeed
Well, thanks for the compliment, and you got me. I did presume that since your school is one of the best in London, it was private. So as we say on my side of the pond, my bad. Good luck on your education. I'm probably three times older than you and I'm still learning. Thanks for the lesson. Have a nice Christmas too.
everyone says my grandpa was better then Clapton. Of course he was pro before record deals and all but I got to listen to this stuff my whole life & wounder where the real music has gone.
the beatles ,paul mcartney ,john lennon....best band of all time and greatest songwriters in modern musical history....end of story...no need for arguments.......
WOW is that Billy Preston on organ? Eric Clapton on guitar and Jeff Lynne to his right (a genius in his own right) must be wetting himself at being on stage with Paul and Ringo!
In 2000 a babysitter was caring for the children, she went to check the kids, they were safe and fine, as she came out she she saw a scary clown statue in the corner. She called the parents and said, "i didn't know you had a clown statue." they said we don't
The clown murdered her with a butcher knife
at 10:00 he will be under your bed or in the closet waiting to kill you. The only way to escape this is to post this on 11 videos
Funny.... his (Eric's) biography say somethin different... you know, that he relentlessly chased after another man's wife with complete disregard for the man's (George's) feelings.

It's probably because Sir Paul sings better in B flat and G, but leave the guitar part in the original so the can easily play it without a capo.
