The Beatles-Yes It Is (Anthology Version)

[vientodestino55]

John♥

[TheFestivelights]

this is a golden opportunity to practice your harmonies people.

[gigy625]

Too long!

[ButtxTardius]

Its what my dad says. Bands these day stay for at most 5 years. But thats all the beatles should have been. But what it is about them That has helped them last with such a good fan base for almost what 50 years? I can never put my finger on just one quality.

[spongebeatles]

Melts my heart

[1959billyshears]

what harmonies ! yes it certainly is

[velvetypics]

Beautiful, haunting version! I heard it once a long time ago and never forgot it.

[spongebeatles]

Soooooo romantic. *sigh*

[Vitally14]

I love lennon but his voice sounds a bit raspy at the beginning

[scarface12347]

i like when he is like mumbling the lyrics because he hasnt written them yet he was such a great writter

[pedrofaba]

JOHN IS GOD

[drrobertoboogie97]

@pedrofaba Comparing such a wonderful musician as John Lennon to the false religious fairy tale characters John stood against the worship thereof is just disrespectful to him.

[Rush1013]

my favorite Beatles bootleg of all time. Johns voice in this is just amazing, hes in such a natural state.

[BeatlEPMJo]

Love you Johnny <3333

[robbypjr]

its ok , but the original is "Better" , this dosen't have the same sound , and that's what makes it "Inferior to me"...

[PAULLONDEN]

@robbypjr Thanks to George Martin ,this mediocre tearjerker had at least somewhere to go,to a B side.

[alpharedtrot]

long live the BEATLES!!!

[ferskasito]

hahahaha 1:01 thru 1:07 doy di di day doy di di day hahahaha lennon is GREAT

[bboyhugo]

this version is amazing 

[welles42]

This has always been better than original to me. John's vocals Aline really punch through. The 3-part harmony of original not as affecting.

[btc3323]

goshhh dang it,

my breath is always taken away at 1:08

its amazing how they could collide the two together

(:

[arnerog2000]

It gives me goosebumps very nice indeed!!! R.I.P John and George.

[westfield90]

Love this version

[leglessfish]

this is so much better than the official 3 part harmony version released don't you think???

[PissoDeStrisso]

is like john is singing next to you :(

[onlinelondon]

I was always the B-side lover; so Yes it is is one of those I liked so much

[brainslow]

Amazing...its spring 1965 and they record this candy that sounds sooo 1957.... only 10 months later they are recorded singing backwards and that we listen to the color of our dreams

[lennonsbiggestfan]

vocal is different league

[MsJune54]

LOVE this, thanks so much for posting it!!!!

[ladybird2500]

Frankly, John sing a little weird in here, but Iove him, anyway :D

[angustrato]

que mas se puede decir....los beatles desde el comienzo hicieron historia

y esta cancion es de mis favoritas.....me recuerda a mi novia!!

[nightcrawler511]

what does it mean by anthology version isnt it the same??

[beatlesrock4567]

its like an outtake or recording they didnt use

[tekilass]

no antology are takes, and other versions demos

[anitaownzu]

Nah. it's a little different. In the beginning they don't all sing together and a few other things are changed. I prefer this version because I can "feel" the lyrics more.

[HAVTTOONMAKER]

@nightcrawler511 no, anthology versions are different from the released versions, some are rehearsals, or so.

[steg111]

it'd be nice if on the final version they did it just like this. john solo at first, then harmonies for the last half. I highly prefer this to the final cut.

[TheOneBeatle]

I have this two takes: 2 and 14.

The take 2 plays till 1:10 and starts fade-out in 1:07.

The other take is the real one (master) without repeating two verses starting in 1:08.

The reason because was cut the take 2 it was because that was the length after that the take 2 ends.

I have the take 1 also and i made a new version with take 1 and 2, want to hear it?

[yiommi]

i love this version

[24liam24]

Love this song so much. Actually prefer the version on the Ticket To Ride single though with the harmonies throughout.

[wotsup9oo]

John I told you!

Dont smoke weed just before recording

[frutacid]

hahahahha XD

[johnowensjr1234]

This particular recording of the song (anthology version) is my favorite beatles song. beautiful melody, heartfelt, and the harmonies are the best the beatles ever gotten together.

[tripnixon]

as john lennon said: "the best stuff was left on the cutting floor." i believe him and the anthology just proves why the outtakes or bootlegs makes some of the songs seem so more alive and "worth it". this too is my favourite cut. sure, john messes around with it, but it sounds so much more vibrant that the LP cut.

[wojiaokatya]

@johnowensjr1234 don't know about the "best ever gotten" but yeah it is very very beautiful ;-)

[cmomofilm]

@johnowensjr1234 Ur not far wrong pal!

[Rtre5899]

johns voice in this song is just so incredible and moving i just cant help but get chills down my spine. i think this is tied with a day in the life for my all time favorite Beatles song

[cmomofilm]

Couldnt agree more, except my fave song is In My Life.

[jmasplymouthbruce2]

its amazing to see (hear) how they plucked out some words & chords acousticaly, & then morphed it together into an  f-ing blockbuster of voice & music !

[KOALAsounds]

One of my favourite beatles songs and versions.

just perfect,yes indeed the harmonies are powerfull.

[johnowensjr1234]

This song, exclusively this version from the anthology, is my all time favorite Beatles song. Perfect melody and harmonies. Lyrics weren't finished yet but the harmonies make up for it. The last 40 seconds is what they are all about.

[toryst478]

LOL at John forgetting the words in an early take! That was an amazing transition to the polished, produced version. Excellent job!!

[Heeey333]

LOL!

[brownjenkinstail]

"Tye tee-tee-tee, tee-tee TYE tee-tee TYE"

That part used to make me squeel as a kid.

[Ennett]

haha thats awesome

[ZomgRuler]

This song makes me wish John didn't die the way he did.

[AiiiChihuahua18]

LoVing this version coz it sends chills to my spine when john sings on his own!!!

R.I.P. JOHN AND GEORGE XxXxX

[TomorrowNeverKnows24]

Yeah that happens to me too! It is such a beautiful version!

[AiiiChihuahua18]

Thank god for Anthology CDs :) I bought all of them for like £30...that's a pretty good deal!!!

[Beatlesrockbeach]
