My best friend Gemma and I chose this as our theme song. While the eighth graders at my lil bro's school sang this (horribly), we were singing even louder than they were and breaking down on the floor. I think we got some very strange looks. But who cares. It's the Beatles!
This was also the only take because George Martin wanted to record a "high fidelity" recording of the Beatles... like as if they were playing a concert for you. Everything just go, no editing or stopping and crossing mixes or tapes. This was brilliant at the time, even to hear this song because people were wanting the quality and to take their time to record in a studio. The Beatles fooled people in the studio by recreating a "live experience" ie. Meet the Beatles
@2:39 you can hear Paul shout "yeah" because of the relief of the long night of recording. This was the last song for them to record that day with the time given in the studio and John's voice was raspy and giving out due to a cold. John agreed to sing and you can even hear little voice cracks or jumps while he's singing and as much as it seems great and better/close to the Isley Brothers, he wasn't trying to do it on purpose!!!
@kngofdmned93 No, but its an even better reason. It's because they recorded the entire album during one day and this was one of the last songs they did, so his voice was so strained by then.
@kngofdmned93 who dosnt know that dude and the other dude is rite to its more of the fact this was one of the last songs and the one they used was one of the last takes
@channyandseddiefan it is indeed sexy. It can never ever in a million years be replicated. when the Beatles recorded it poor John had some sort of cold. But the producers made him sing his soul out anyways. and i dont think the result couldve possibly turned out any better
@Asleepymystikal I don't speak with sandwiches. Don't you know sarcasm when you hear it? I have a goddamn constitutional right to voice my own opinion. If you don't like it then keep it to yourself. Go screw yourself!
they had a hit with just three chords!"!! Only these guys could pull it offf, one of my many regrets is i never saw them but their music still lives on Brilliant !!!
@MorbidDeath73 - You must be right. After all, look at all the groups from 50 years ago that have 10's of millions of hits on Youtube, not to mention still sell millions of albums every year. What did the Beatles ever do anyway?
@MorbidDeath73 - interesting point, so which group would you say is comprable to the Beatles, but does not get the same credit as the Beatles, since the Beatles are as you say overrated. Just so this does not deteriorate and become a subjective conversation, the band you come up with has to be comparable to the Beatles using an objective measurment - song/album sales, influence, popularity etc.
@Gator115 they recorded 11 songs in 10 hours and this was the last one they recorded. john had a cold anyway but it was worsened before this song and he had an incredibley sore throat for a long time afterwards.
The Top Notes recorded this song originally; their version is so different,I wonder where the Beatles got this idea of recording it in a totally different fashion..
I hear that the reason why John Lennons voice is like it is in this song, is because he and the others where recording untill his voice started to give, which made it perfect, so they had to preform this song last in every one of their concerts to get the same effect.
