[Aphex217Twin]

if you pause it you can see pictures of Billy Shears getteing plastic surgery around 6:20

[mlynn1231]

"an orgasm of sound" well put

[DDRaHolic]

George Martin sure does like romanticizing all this stuff, doesn't he?

[dermagrafa]

I wouldnt write Mariah off just yet....lol..

[watever4201]

i love how paul rubs his hands in excitement when hes talking about when John said "turn you on"

[Msemospongebob]

1:28

"...an ORGASM of sound rising from nothing at all to the most 'incredible' noise..."

haha. but that song always gives me the creeps...

[panicattackstudios]

4:40 bad trip

[Initforthemusic12]

I remember listening to this during the night, alone in the dark. It scared me, in a good way I suppose.

Revolution 9 was another.

[VIVAVISCONSIN]

When i was 13 years old i got my first Beatles Album ,Sgt.Pepper, as a birthday gift. It was in 1981. And i thought "uuuh,what do i do with this old fashioned music?" So i putted it onto my record player and from that second i went to a different word. This album opened my eyes...

[marisacoutinho1]

ECHOES

[lockedabout]

george martin! a real genious ! the five beatle

[Evimarie08]

Surrealism and amazing musicianship, etc. aside, I love this song because of the emotions it shows. Especially in John's vocals.

[danielibertine]

double hear ftw.

[danielibertine]

i hear an echo, an amazing echo; how come i cant hear hear it on my stereo version?

[wrathchild2k]

The Monkees' Mike Nesmith at 6:26

[Adolphus91788]

You can see Donovan sitting with Paul at 4:21

[ERICKERMR]

chingadooooo porqe coran a hendrix...lo mismo con las partes anteriores...las cortan al final...

[LouisJopling]

I first heard A Day In The Life on a compilation CD my old school teacher gave me which he had made. It was extremely wrong of him to do so by school terms as it was illegal but as I played it for the first time, alphabetical order played its part and I was left in awe at the song. I was 13 at the time, 7 years on and I'm still growing with The Beatles. I simply cannot imagine my life without them.

The Beatles story & music should be taught in school as a mandatory subject like Maths & English.

[krissyjeshi]

they came a long way from Twist and Shout but thats what makes them THE BEST!

[krazytyme]

How horrifically and tragically sad is it that Mariah Carey has beaten The Beatles for the most number ones? Tragic. Truly. She's not a bad artist. She's a good one, really. But honestly, she does not even BEGIN to measure up to what The Beatles were. Are. They are legendary. Trendsetting. I can't even put into words what they were and are. They were the soundtrack for an entire generation.

[pomfret27]

i love 1:47, george martin is just like wow, i can't believe we did this, this is sensational.

[pomfret27]

hands down, a day in the life is the greatest song ever written

[pomfret27]

pattie boyd looking fine at 4:10

[pomfret27]

is that keith richards at 3:56?

[jaaf86]

that song is and will be too innovating

[vivwritten]

nesmith from the monkies was in there!

[099697310]

a day in the life...pocas canciones en la historia se asercaran a esta obra maestra

[ECHOES2131]

@099697310 Echoes de pink floyd tiene una estructura similar pero no tan sublime como la de los fab four

[ssiknick83]

How ahead of their time were they ?! Incredible. "A day in the life" still sounds radical now lol.

[AstralPixie]

Wow, that's an amazing story about Jimi Hendrix -- I had never heard that!

[conoray1]

and you have the worse attempt at punctuation. This isn't Queen, and the sound they wanted was unique to this song. It's dramatic and it fits and swells as they wanted it to before the song dropped again. I personally think it's brilliant. Like a deep breath before a plunge.

[X0XhallielinnXOX]

does anybody else see John as two different people? like one version of John Lennon is the silly, fun-loving, early beatles type. and the second kind of Sgt. Peppers on to the "Imagine" days?

[irishman05050505]

You could probably say that about all of the Beatles, but yes John and certainly George seemed to change the most.

[fusser4]

i'm agree with you physsically it's different if you are talking about that

[HoosInDaHowse]

OMG I thought i was the only one!

[lorenaazul]

totally agree with this. i've always felt this way.

[irishman05050505]

That bass line is amazing in Paul's part, I've never really noticed it because of the piano.

[mcflyfarm]

Yeah, the way this has been ripped i think the audio has been restricted to mono accidently, isolating that excelent bass line to be heard by most us, for the first time. What a pleasure!!!

[Lizardking881110]

A day in the life, es una obra maestra dentro de otra obra maestra, sin duda

[chibinessroxsheep]

Pay attention to the video. John was all for including Paul's bit in the middle. Paul wasn't imposing it on him, telling him to put it in somewhere.

[shears1after909]

Here we go with the "I hate Paul and Lennon is 1000 times better" nonsense. Actually, I think it fits perfectly. Just like Lennon and McCartney fitted perfectly together as songwriters. They helped eachother out on all songs. Paul didn't impose it, it was an idea that just worked.

[mcflyfarm]

Paul needed John and John needed Paul. It was really Lennon/McCartney all the time. They were always improving each others songs.

[X0XhallielinnXOX]

It was John who had the idea to add backing vocals that say "can't get much worse" in Getting Better. next time, recheck your facts before opening your mouth.

[IwillKillYourCereal]

"I'd love to turn you on" came from out of nowhere lol, I don't think that it has absolutely anything to do with the song

[ledZeppelin7680]

well it has a little bit of relevance, i'd love to turn you on followed by an ''orgasm'' makes sense right? also revolution nine, ''number nine, number nine, number nine'' backwards = turn me on deadman, turn me on dead man, turn me on deadman''

[x0Bedward]

I think IwillKillYourCereal is correct in saying that the line "I'd love to turn you on", has nothing to do with the song. Revolution number nine was on the White Album, and therefore they did this song beforehand, showing that the two aren't connected. I think it was another one of John's throw-away lyrics, and also a way to push the boundaries in the music world with such a brash statement.

[ledZeppelin7680]

he only claimed that his songs were nonsense so he wouldn't be harassed by the press about it. like lucy in the sky, you can't tell me you believe that song is about juliens child hood friend? its about a fucking acid trip and you can't prove otherwise

[x0Bedward]

.. I don't think you read that properly, at all. I never said that his songs weren't about drugs. I simply said, he incorporated a throw-away lyric in 'A Day in the Life', and that your reasoning for it not being such made no sense, because this song came before your alleged defense. Also, you cannot prove that it IS about an acid-trip. So, chill, man.

[ledZeppelin7680]

you said it wasn't related but all their strange songs were related in some way, mostly because of the whole paul is dead phase.

[x0Bedward]

All of their strange songs were not related. Only a few. 'I Am the Walrus' was related to 'Glass Onion', thus disproving the fact that Paul wasn't dead to anyone who suspected so, because "The Walrus was Paul" - a lyric from 'Glass Onion'. I don't even know if you could call it a phase - some people still believe it to be true.

[mizusajt]

Orgasm IS the perfect word!!

[mosquitador1]

where's the piano track in the middle part?

[allezleblue10]

Damn A Day In The Life is a wonderful song The Beatles were so talented i love them

[refek1]

wow just hearing a day in the life makes me have an orgasm.... BEATLES4E

[themike56]

ringos drumming in a day in a life is great

[Canaveral305]

One of his best in my opinion, along with Rain and The End.

[ledZeppelin7680]

what about i'm so tired?

[04199001]

Couldn't have used better word: ORGASM

[mattlay]

mmmmmmmmm orgasm of sound, nice.

[wackoashley]

no one will ever be able to beat the beatles they had amazing music that u cant forget bcuz if u do it just comes back out of no where

[badtown88]

True. And anyone who calls the Beatles overrated knows nothing. This band changed music forever and they did it while making the msot diverse, entertaining and downright fun music anyone has ever made.

[Radz117]

I think the only reason people may say The Beatles were overrated was because there is controversy as to how much George Martin contributed to The Beatles crazy sounds and ideas.

[rryan1123]

true no one will beat the beatles,but this sounded more like a john lennon album before his un timely death...much tones like like imagine...

[AmbulanceProductions]

Isn't that the THX sound or whatever? lol The orchestra part in A Day In The Life.

[pswinford8]

not at all... THX sounds completely different. They just both use an upward progression

[Flamer2203]

They do sound similar don't they? (:

But no, they just both use upward noise progression, and the effect sounds a bit the same.

[lilaznclownerxD]

the music industry is soo screwed up right now. an example, mariah carey beating elvis and catching up to the beatles at the most

#1's in america....ugh -____-

[badtown88]

Sad I know. Thankfully tho no one will remember Mariah Carey 100 years from now while everyone will know about the Beatles.

[stephencolbertfanno1]

@badtown88 Who the fuck is Mariah Carey??

[laurencio564]

toddlers with guns...nice touch lol :-)

[andarleon]

I can't recall someone ever saying george martin was the fifth beatle... think that's a later thing and a later guy: billy preston

[beatleslovee]

There's a long list of "fifth" beatles. Billy Preston was yeah, on their roof top performance (he played the keys). But George is definately THE fifth Beatle.

[rigaudien]

More than Murray the K ! LOLLLLLLL

[rigaudien]

Geroge Martin is INDEED the fifth Beatle...

[woodencasino]

Well said dude :P

[Megacoolguydawg]

either George or Brian Epstein.

[rigaudien]

Agreed !

[registerman07]

paul said "turns me on" on "She's a Woman" over two years earlier...

[sadizes]

oh yeah huhhhhh

[matte85]

Mainly a John song, Paul? In his biography, Paul said that he co-wrote the other verses with John, at least the one with Tara Bron and holes in Blackburn.

[beatleslovee]

If its a biography he didn't write it. It has to be an autobiography.

Also, he did co-write it but it was initially JOHNS idea and the majority of the song IS his. I'm not going to retype everything the clip just said. It's pretty self explanitory.

[HappyDaze01]

Boy, I would have loved to be in the room where they performed the orchestral freakout. I would probably be there with a big pair of cymbals.

[wheresthebeef2]

Love the Beatles.

[GonzoBillTong]

Thanks for the upload. the anthology is a great movie.

[EricJazzMan]

no-one will EVER again or has even got near to music like this in popular music. It was unique and will NEVER be matched again.

Sorry manchester rip off merchants (merchant as in seamen) LOL

[canopin]

Cuando tenía quince años conseguí The Beatles Anthology 2, y la canción que más me gustó fue A Day In The Life. Esa versión es limpia, dulce, llena de mucha melancolía, justo lo que yo vivía en esa época. Yo no conocía bien a este grupo que llaman The Beatles... Esta canción no es mi Beatle No. 1, pero está dentro de las 5 mejores.

[ceefax101]

one for my funeral i reckon.

[angel21786]

I´d love to turn you on !!!!!

[gingerlover81]

george martin was the real magician behind the beatles

[iminomcperson]

This very good for my life !

[blackpearl2708]

A Day In The Life is one of my absolute favourite Beatles songs...Just fantastic!

[sabeth86]

'A Day In The Life' is such a beautiful song. Thank you for uploading this!
