The Beatles: Rock Band Commercial Spot

[InsanelyRightosFilms]

Omg! my friend is in this he's the kid in the red shirt with glasses he's playing the bass guitar!!!

[TheVerve480]

That's... Odd!!

[thebeatlesbeachboys]

omfg. the beatles are alive again. XD

[stratocaster1231]

But the look a likes are pretty good

[stratocaster1231]

Those aren't the real Beatles

[Tazhidito]

@stratocaster1231 Really? ¬¬

[Megasine]

@stratocaster1231 actually, Paul and Ringo are real ones with a wig and a lot of make-up. George and John are played by their sons, Dhani and Julian, with a lot of make-up and a wig too.

[zeromant80]

@Megasine Some shots are taken from old footage

[ryandeakin5878]

pause at 0.10 it looks nout like goerge

[SamWaterstonFanatic]

@Scarperguy Thank you for the info...that was a quite interesting read.

[Scarperguy]

Google "How Smoke & Mirrors New York brought The Beatles' Abbey Road album cover to life." It says exactly how they created this :)

[SamWaterstonFanatic]

LOVE THIS COMMERCIAL...SO WELL-DONE! The way the guys invite everyone to join them, and how they're all just so content in the moment. So awesome the way George admires that beautiful Gretsch the little girl hands him, and that great big smile on John's face near the end is pure win...you two are forever loved and dearly missed.

FOREVER BEATLES!!

[FlyingSQUIRRILLLS]

0:05 Ringo is hot 0:09 i would be the most happiest girl in the world if i were her and i love the way George looks at the gretsch :3 I really love this commercial!! ^_^

[TheWeehoo74]

O__O wow

[Zimnyification]

0:15 is real. I've seen that footage somewhere but I can't put my finger on it. They literally take his face right out of the film and put it in this.

[34tstolz]

Black guy in the suit was jammin .

[purplepills3]

Whenever I watch this video it makes me so sad because I know I will never have lived in John Lennon's lifetime. :(

[faithfulltobeatles]

that was beautiful

[iammenyou1]

0:17 is a smile that can easily cheer me up :)

[GintokisGirl95]

What was the significance of 09-09-09 to the Beatles?

[rcurly11]

@GintokisGirl95 Their song "One After 909" is my only guess.It doesn't really matter why "09-09-09" is the release date,it just matters that this got released!The best Rock Band ever made :D !

[AJohnnymous]

@rcurly11 Would have been perfect if they released it on the 10th. One after 9/09

[mAiijO0]

Dhani harrison appears as his father? or how make it there?

[VinylDelusion]

Was this done with very convincing lookalikes?

[hazeman671]

@VinylDelusion Nope old footage, probably from a different commercial spliced in with some very good editing, those are the real Beatles

[AJohnnymous]

@hazeman671 It's the heads taken from footage at their last photo session put onto body doubles used for the commercial. There are a couple Ringo and Paul moments where it is completely them, but it's mostly just the heads.

[HTprods]

Is George being played by his son Dhani at 0:09?

[PolMcCartney]

@HTprods

it's animation

[HTprods]

@PolMcCartney It's not. There is no way to animate as realistic as that. The footage doesn't quite look like George. It looks more like Dhani so imagine it is.

[lovegeorgeharrison60]

alright this is weird how they made the Beatles in it but haha them having there own rock band just shows you how great they were

[JHIXstudios]

Yeah they just edited the beatles in!

cool....! I love the Beatles rockband!

so addicting!

even on xboxlive!

[GagasLitteMonster]

I wish I was in this commercial. I mean it would have been cool to look like I knew the Beatles even though I didn't exist when they were a band. I hate myself for not being born then

[Arod413]

I absolutley love this vid. I love how they recreated them walking.

[elotrain]

I like how the girl from The Ring isn't following John around like she did around this era

[record45rpm]

Go to the 'Autodesk' Maya site... Search on Beatles... You will find EVERYTHING you want to know about how they made it.

[animepwn3r]

i hate how they make John just stand and smile like a dumbass. :(

[CJMcGuire24]

Really confused

[Antoniomeche6165]

¡EXCELENTE TRABAJO, GRAN VIDEO!

[MageTheIdol]

they are the real beatles this scenes is of "Come Together" video XD

[guitarshot93]

WTF??!!! how they made it???

[ThisMyUsernayme]

THE BEGINNING FREAKIN KILLED ME!!!

IT WAS TOTALLY, EPICALLY, AWESOMELY AMAZING!!

[thebeatlesbeachboys]

WAAHTT?! HOW... Woahh. That's AH MAZZINGG.

[511Garcia]

WHOA COMPUTERS CAN DO SOME AMAZING SHIT!

[60acecombat]

aos 0:16 o jhon lennon ta com cara de doidão

[cquintanar41]

OMG THEY LOOK JUST AS THE ORIGINAL BEATLES

[trueSTUFF2296]

What kind of fuckery is this?

[mykherockgrunge]

la primera vez q ví este video casi lloro :'(

se miran tan reales pero yo sé q no son ellos

[RENATINHO6876]

the better commercial of history i am much fãn of the bealtes justin bieber bastard

[ninenine909]

Dan Auerbach as John Lennon... LOL! XD

[shinypokemonify]

are those the real Beatles or look a likes

[McCartnee]

@shinypokemonify Those were the real ones, but there was a little Special Effects trickery to make it seem like all that footage was from the Abbey Road photo sessions. As far as I know there IS no video footage of it.

[Darkblossomxx]

@McCartnee My theory is that these are really actors with The Beatles heads cropped on to their bodies.

[msmiscool]

this video makes me cry because it looks so real yet i know that it's sadly not. RIP George and John.

[woozycoot]

@msmiscool and paul.....if you havent seen the movie

[mariaaglq]

ASOMBROSOOO! CÓMO LOGRARON HACER ESE SPOT?!?! :O

LO AMOOOOO! LOS BEATLES LO SON TODOOO!!

[snapplecapfact]

AWESOME!!!

[CanadianGirl9806]

Oh my gosh this is so cool =]

[xelamt10]

0:9 wow george harrison Holding a: rock band¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[xelamt10]

0:9 wow george harrison Holding a: rock band

[TheMonsterEnergy1999]

lol at 0:17 john is like far-out man i'm not hating him

[SingALilify]

There would be peace on earth if John and George were still alive!!

[xSasuNaruAmutox]

really good editing.. i wish i was in this vid so then i can watch it and pretend they were actually there..lmao

[Lovez2Spoogev2]

okkk that is deff dhani harrison at 0:10

[tabularasaconfirmed]

Um, was anyone else really creeped out by this video?

[edyoung44]

@Dhanielynn is that good or bad

[SammyG5551]

thumbs up if you paused at the little boy holding the hofner!!

[RosekillProductions]

@SammyG5551 he's holding it righty...

[Ladyariee1940]

@cortex11pl .... Lady gaga uses her real voice, and she actually is a really good singer....other than that everyone else sucks

[infectedsanity]

I keep watching this over and over again. It's just so damn cool.

[KadaverDog3155]

@infectedsanity i knoeeeee me to

[Guerrillablackdog]

I want to see how this was made. That, to me, would be even more interesting to watch.

[Cml725]

I still get chills with this!

[KUR7Piano12]

That's a lot of #9's. Oh wait...

[mi6thebeatles]

dame john lennon looks like a jew in this comercial

[AndresAmelieEsp]

on 9:9:9:9?!?!!?!?!?!????ª??!?!!?­!? WTF 0:26

[sunshineaubreyy]

@AndresAmelieEsp He's saying "9/9/09." I know, the 0 sounds like 9 when he says it, hahaha

[thedoorsman24]

did they just get look-a-likes for this?

[javier9400]

The Beatles!!!!!

[fusejockey]

Sweet - loves it - sav

[MetrazolElectricity]

i dont know how they did this commercial its awesome!

[pesealli]

40 dislikes guys ¿why?

[B00BScream]

OH MY GOD THEY'RE ALIVE!! THEY'RE FUCKIN ALIVE!!!

[KevM967]

when you see paul and ringo at around :06, its actually them. if youve seen the last episode of anthology near the end, its the exact same footage. so they've just cropped them into the commercial in some parts

[BarryDennen12]

"What do you fucking mean 97% ya cunt?? Play it again, I didn't make any fucking mistakes".

[blackcatmaster22]

They are all actors. Ringo saying come on, thats ringos actual voice, proving it was voiced. The person at the end who says the date and rating is the actor who plays as the lead character in Across the Universe, as a tribute to the Beatles. This commercial maybe fake, but it is a big tribute to who The Beatles were and are.

[CorteX11PL]

*ATTENTION FELLOW BEATLES FANS!*

On July 30th 2011 view every Beatles video you can , and make sure you like it too.

This will be national Beatles day.blast their music, sing their songs, do everything to celebrate! Music today is junk, auto-tunes, and not their real voices example: Lady GaGa, Kesha Justin Beiber, and many more. More kids should listen to music like this, real music. Agreed? THE BEATLES RULE. Thumbs up so everyone can see, and please repost to every Beatles video!!

[plomtilom]

@CorteX11PL actually lady gaga uses her real voice and went to the juliard school and is extremely talented except for that i totally agree

[austinshaddtv]

@CorteX11PL hey that's my birthday! :D

[CorteX11PL]

@austinshaddtv "You say it's your birthday

It's my birthday too, yeah

They say it's your birthday

We're gonna have a good time

I'm glad it's your birthday

Happy birthday to you." ;)

[GouledXD]

@CorteX11PL How is that any different from an average day in the life. I always make Beatles references, sing their songs, blast their music, and like, all their videos I watch.

[66Uncharted]

all right is this a old commercial or these guys are amazing look alikes

[LoudSoda]

It would be cool if the had Sgt. Peppers and after they take the picture every one in the backround cones to life

[ChubbyDiego12]

There are two Beatles left. Correct me if I'm wrong but it's Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr

[MNxHOCKEYx24]

@ChubbyDiego12 did;nt paul McCartney die of cancer?

[MNxHOCKEYx24]

@ChubbyDiego12 sorry my bad george harrison died of cancer

[1tobedoneX]

@ChubbyDiego12 Your right. Those damn "Paul Is Dead" Theories and shit are false.

[GouledXD]

@ChubbyDiego12 Paul McCartney has been dead since 2007, they just put a chimpanzee in his place to fool the general public. Ringo starr has been dead since 1959 but has been living as a zombie since he was a teenager. So yeah

John:Dead, George:Reincarnated as a frog, Paul:Dead and replaced with a chimpanzee, Ringo: Undead.

[Kenny48690]

Come together is the name of the song

[shytypeable]

abbey road was the luckiest road ever made...

[graypaw83]

@shadeemiilto it's come together

[ShadeeeMilito]

WHO KNOWS THE SONG NAME?

[beatlebob101]

@ShadeeeMilito come together

[noodleworks14]

Coolest.commercial.ever.

[wiisalute]

that REALLY looks like john and george

[killthephonies]

@wiisalute because it is....holy god how are not getting how difficult this commercial was to make?

[poppersopper]

huh how did they make this commercial :O I LOVE IT!

[iwannaholdyourhand1]

most of us paused at 2:00 thumbsupif u did

[chumon1992]

this commercial makes my heart flutter. I wish it were all real.

[iSAMAZiNGSOAMAZiNG]

I shat bricks when I first saw this commercial

[CheerleaderKatiexx]

@balletluv100 why did it come out on this date? ive heard loads of different things x

[thewinteryears]

Is paul in this video real? haha!!

[musicbabyable]

THEY LOOK SOOOOO ALIKE!! OMFG! LOVE YOU BEATLES<3

[MRevolution44]

are they the real beatles?? :OOOO

[itsbridgetlogann]

Sometimes I wonder why they released it on 09.09.09...

Hmmm...

NUMBA NINE, NUMBA NINE, NUMBA NINE

[YoshiTheBlue]

@itsbridgetlogann

John really liked the number nine.

[Johnny66215]

MY FAVORITE PUBLICITY

[TheSgtPeppersLonely]

These are the real Beatles. Only a FEW shots in this aren't them. They just took footage from time time period, cropped the Beatles out, and put it over these people.

[themusicmega2]

i paused it at 0:02 and realized the fake is much fatter than the real paul

[KABLAMMM777]

So at 0:16 does anyone else see Hermionie in the pink shirt behind John?

[anne20016]

There is something horrorfying about 0:16... i just cant put my finger on it.

[aquayla123]

@anne20016 it's the look he gives when he's just about to rape you in your dreams...

[flcl64]

@anne20016 its cause we all know john is dead as shit, but some how hes smiling and looking right at us, plus, the way they set it up. Its an actor stand in, with johns face cropped over it. and i assume that its cause his head looks sort of like its moving weird when he turns to the camera.

[Joulestalgia]

No men, they're the real beatles taken from old videotapes, look at Paul, from the last photo session and "the end" video. =)

[jewitup11]

that was them when they showed their faces close up they just edited them into the video with other people, but with the shots from and behind they used lookalikes. tsk tsk fools.

[CoolComKid1]

John looks like jesus!

[91schumacher]

@CoolComKid1 yes but he's more famous then jesus :)

[MsPeacegurl1]

@91schumacher yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss­ssssss! :D

[0NotSoFar0]

Why did nobody tell me that the time machine was invented?!

[nfekted]

@0NotSoFar0 ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

[AmonCOCO]

@waw1131 trust me it;s not him.... ask anyone

[JulieLovesTheBeatles]

This is so scary. :D But great video. ;)

[AmonCOCO]

@waw1131 that isn't paul...you do know he doesn't look like he's 25 now, rite?

[doglover52]

woah they almost look like the real deal! Their hot ;P

but i dont believe the John guy. His nose is too big. you can telln when he turns after he smiles :)

[Christian12XD]

0:10 NIÑA:tome señor , Ringo Star:TU PUTA MADRE

[Artsiegrl9513]

My exact words: "That's just... That's just... woah..." I would swear that was really them. O.o

[JacobsNike]

Que impresionante el video ....como unen la grabacon real con el comercial 

[halofan38]

thats crazy

[MN008]

Then when Ringo flipped his hair, is the actor's body and Ringo videoclip's head, the same with John...

Then you can see Paul behind Ringo.. That clip of Paul is taken from their last video and photo session made in a garden.. And That ringo's head is taken by Something Video.

Then there's George with a Guitar.. That George's head's videoclip is taken by Let it Be sessions.. Look at his hair and it look like the Let it be's time,it should be far longer.. And in the computer they added the beard

[MN008]

Ok.. here is the truth of this awesome video... At the first part when they are cossing the road, their bodies are actors, with the same clothes, and George head movement is done by computer, look how it only rotates a little upward, Ringo head movement is a video clip of the Get Back sessions... Notice that John and Paul's head dont move at all...

When the camera is in the back of the man looking at the Beatles, it's obvious that they are actors...

[Jerone006]

'they' aren't people dressed like the beatles. I believe they used actual footage (at least on Paul McCartney). Compare the way he looks to the side @0:07 with 'the beatles last footage' (search on Youtube). Those are some pretty mean editing skills.

[csabaimate]

George must had a very special face that they couldn't imitate him but the others are real!!!

[Doritoman163]

Pause on 0:02. Open up another file compare this with the real Abbey road, and this shot. Looks wayy to real!

[Crispenguin15]

At the 0:20 part Why is there only one man on rhe right side of the street MAXWELL!!!

[lilmizzallyfull]

:P The people who made this video, probably got some older video of them and put it on this video to make it look more modern day. sense John and George (may they rest in peace), since they died they may have had a person to dress like them both, then did something technical to make them look like what they did in the times of Abbey Road.

[luiggi7891]

They weren't the beatles ?

[kulak10]

The best commercial I' ve ever seen

[Gears408]

y couldnt the real beatles be around to do this commercial?

[Justasecondyou]

This is one of best adverts ever.

[MWRtheoneandonly]

As much as I don't like RockBand, this is a cool commercial.

[rissygirly22]

BEST COMMERCIAL EVER ♥♥♥ this looks so real! i love it :) pure epicness.

[TheMaddster2000]

Paul- Ok Tommy (made up name for the kid at 0:12) don't drop my bass be very careful with that.

Geogre- Wohh this guitar is so cool.

John- Why are all these people here.

Ringo- Let's get out of here and buy the game.

[TheMaddster2000]

Im so jealous of that little kid at 0:12 because he gets to hold Pauls bass.

[InfernoProj]

@TheMaddster2000

that's a beatles rockband controller dude haha

[TheMaddster2000]

It looks so real.

[rael3554]

@yipeejc oh my god i think is the smile of john, something EVIL!!!!!

[ThreeDaysSasuke]

How They Made This : They took little clips out of Beatles movies, Clips, videos, ect. Then placed it into this. Or they could have gotten look alikes...

[rissygirly22]

@ThreeDaysSasuke they must be really good look-a-likes.

[GabriellaCarro]

Paul McCartney looks like that Japnesse girl on 00:07.

[GabriellaCarro]

00:07 though 00:11 I think that is cute.

[AbbeyRoad1969MSH]

omg they have almost perfect doppelgangers

[juliabazon]

UH! Im the japanese girl, the black guy with headphones, im everyone!

hahaha im so hard

im a wizzard, dont mess with me cause im a wizard.

[AbbeyRoad1969MSH]

@yipeejc i think its because he looks like abraham lincoln

[Phantommatthew]

Those are the real Beatles. They are using computers to combine stock footage and actors to make them look like this, but it is the beatles. Except for the begining, when they walk across. That is actors.

[facundozxt]

wooouuu

[98ILoveTheBeatles98]

Also, in the real image, you can see the arch in Paul's foot. But I will say that this is a really amazing idea for a commercial! It's so cool!

[zeromant80]

from 0:02 onwards they are the real beatles. they have used footage from other videos.

[nworebellion15]

To the world. Let's go get Beatles look alikes and then go cross a street with guitars, speakers, and drums.

[juliabazon]

I found a think they forgot to put when they are walking (at 0:02) :

in the real image, theres 2 guys (on the left) on the background.. but in the video theres no.

And John's nose arent the same, ringo's hair too.

And a lot of other things..

[DieWalrossen]

Most of this is actually the real beatles for all you dumbys who can't tell and think it's all actors. At 0:02 those are actors.

[CheerleaderKatiexx]

@DieWalrossen yeah, its only john and george that are actors x

[Zimnyification]

I keep playing o:16 over and over again, it's my favorite part.

[Zimnyification]

AHHHHHHH I just realized that the guy in the beginning is that American tourist in the back there <3 <3

[Zimnyification]

@balletluv100 ...why?

[msmiscool]

this commercial made me want to cry when i first saw it.

[SCOTTpilgrimist12]

paul: i'm too cool for this commercial, i'm just gonna look over there..

john: look what technology can do! :D

george: let's tune that guitar for ya' !

ringo: c'mon guys, let's go buy the game!
