[dab4546]

Thank you...

[Stoneypie]

¡ǝlqɐssɐdɹnsun ʎldɯıs

[nobodyrhcp]

simplesmente foda! :D

[DrNatalieP]

Have adored this man my whole life. Thank you, Paul.

[bassman462]

Ending on the half cadence is so incredibly perfect for this song. What really sets all the beatles songs apart are their extreme attention to the subtleties in music.

[adrian5b]

this is demotivational... I love it

[Dion1957]

BRAVO, Sir Paul.

[vitorum100]

Really incredible, every time i listen to this song it get's better.

the lyrics are really beautifull and sad:

"in her eyes you see nothing, no sign of love behind the tears, cryed for no one, a love that should have lasted years"

the dumbass that vote negative is just a jealous and mad man.

[musicseverything]

@vitorum100 I like your comment. He´s only comparable with the most talented classical musicians like Mozart, Schubert, Chopin, Strauss, Bach etc. Paul wrote this song in Switzerland for his girl friend Jane Asher in the period hey broke up. I think Jane found him with another girl. Negative votes must be just wrong button mistaked. No one in world could dislike any Paul´s song.

[flexibartr]

@musicseverything Please don't forget Beethoven and Miles Davis in your list. And Heinrich Isaak and Cat Stevens. Thanks.

[musicseverything]

@flexibartr sure! but that´s why I added the "etc". You´re right, there are some other very good ones, but in my modest opinion, they are are not so many.

[flexibartr]

@musicseverything Right. My comment was meant to make some hardcore beatlemaniacs (as I am one) google some other composer names and listen to some other kinds of music. (Beatlemaniacs have very trained ears due to George Martin.) It's a pity that all the lists like of "Most Influential Musicians of All Times" are either restrained on pop/rock/jazz or on from-Perotin-to-Schönberg. We should open our minds because music itself doesn't know these borders.

[Thehelllestat]

who is that 1 negative? i`m gonna kill you justin !!!

[Nowhereman90]

I red in the anthology book that Paul and Martin wrote the solo with a F note, just a halftone above the instrument registe, on purpose. Civil could play it anyway without complaining.

But he really got angry when Mccartney suggest him to make another take

[domine3]

Mccartney hummed the solo to George Martin while he notated it. Alan Civil played exactly what Paul wanted, just like the rest of the Beatles always did. Look it up.

[musicseverything]

@domine3 Oh yes, that´s exactly what i feel. Paul was the leader, for no to say "the boss". The other 3 were very good too but Paul was in command, the head of the group. But of course, that was a natural consequence of his talent, character, charisma, dedication, determination, hard working and amazing geniality. I love The Beatles and will always do, but Paul is above all, a star that will shine forever

[musicseverything]

@domine3 yes absolutely, excelent! Paul was the leader. The other 3 were very good too but Paul was their teacher for not to say the Boss.

[walrusPLA]

Paul McCartney my spirit my heart my life we love you paul....

[7NTM61Ic]

The solo was written by the horn player, Alan Civil, who says: "Paul said 'We want something there. Can you play something that fits in?'… I made something up which was middle register, a baroque style solo."

[Fruttidoro]

Happy 69th birthday, dear Paul!

[poussyledzep]

awesome song!!!

[sickpoola]

"For No One" - The Beatles cover - Frederike Vermehren...check it out,amazing cover!!!!

[stonepony31682]

A fabulous song from one of the great Beatle albums made Revolver. But a horrible movie was Give My Regards to Broadstreet. I wish Paul would finally get around and release Let It Be on DVD or Blu-Ray

[mogenlogen]

Is that Bryan Brown 1:24, what is he doing there?

[eddiegill]

Is this from 1966?



[mdevita3]

@eddiegill  no 1984, a soundtrack Give My Regards to Broad Street.

[Michael2908Jackson]

A love that should have lasted years...

Jane & Paul ♥

[AllThisIsThat]

You want her, you need her, and yet you don't believe her,

when she says her love is dead, you think she needs you.

True heartbreak. I don't think lyrics can be better than that - ever.

[Jermybug]

French horn sounds like he might want to empty his spit valve.

[cherylruno100]

The most beautiful rendition of this sond!!!!

[naniicHokoOroOLl]

UNA GRAN VERSIÓN! :p

[PreacherofArrakeen]

The original was better.



[townsergeant]

The Horn player is Jeff Bryant, ex-LSO Principal Horn.

[Faithinmeiseasy]

I want to see him live!!!absolutely!

[Chicagokrzy]

I started to tear up as soon as the strings started. When Paul began singing...I just lost it.

[Beatlemania196]

Brings tears to my eyes every time.

[randyman57]

That bad ass horn player was Alan Civil. He was an amazing player.

[billt6161]

@randyman57 Alan Civil was on the original recording. The skinny guy is not Alan civil.

[TheNeonTide]

badass french horn player with a leather jacket

[asdfkie]

Really nice song but like all of their songs this is really raw. It would be great if someone did a cover of this and gave it a modern twist.

[GUILMON44]

@asdfkie Disagreed, Some things we shouldn't touch. If it is good like this, keep it like this. I don't like these ppl that only hears a song if it's new.

[asdfkie]

@GUILMON44 disagreed. some things we need to touch. i don't hear a song only if its new, in fact nowadays i hear a song only if its old lol. I love oldies but this one needs a revamp.

[pikapower127]

oh my god ! this song... words just can not describe ! The french horn part of this song is just so great

[julchaz]

awww common guys...they were awesome together...they each brought equal to the page of notes for music!!! John had the fire of words....Paul had the melodies that play in our heads!!

[HughCarpenter]

To say that John Lennon is overrated shows how unsightful you seem to be, so much so it's a shame, and no matter what you say to me or to others, you'd be in the minority on that opinion.

[berninski62]

NICE SHIRT, PAULIE!!

STILL ONE OF MY TOP TEN SONGS OF ALL TIME FROM THE BEATLES!!

[mattjackleroy]

Occasionally, McCartney came up with lyrics on par with Lennon's tunes. This might be one of those songs.

[chicagolegend]

@mattjackleroy Lennon is overrated

[mattjackleroy]

@chicagolegend Listen to the early Beatle's music ( i.e. through 1965 ),... mostly Lennon. McCartney was / is great in his own right....but in all my readings of the Beatles, McCartney admits that the only person's opinion he cared about was Lennon. Growing up with the Beatles, it is somewhat hard for me to dissect them individually. Clearly, McC was more prolific post Beatles; then again, he has outlived Lennon by 30 years.

[chicagolegend]

@mattjackleroy Uh. Yesterday (most covered song), I'm looking Through you, I'll follow the Sun, We can work it out (Paul's bits) Things we said today, And I love her... The early songs were more about melody, which Paul was clearly better at making. Yoko said John would stay up at night wondering why people liked Pauls stuff more than his.. Wonder why? And compare their solo careers 1970 - 1980 and Paul was clearly better. Also, everyone will agree Paul is the superior musician (guitar, piano)

[mattjackleroy]

@chicagolegend @chicagolegend It all comes down to personal preference. I prefer to just listen to the music. Having seen Lennon live on stage, nothing has ever come close for me from all my avid concert going years...not The Who or Stones or Led Zep or any of them. Lennon was the real deal. Happy holidays. Marc

[elivansouza]

Great Paul.

[stowsux]

This is easily one of my favorite renditions of this work. Thanks for posting.

[poussyledzep]

one of the best beatrles songs

[albumblatt]

god

[wojiaokatya]

my favorite song by paul - in the original arrangement

[toxx1d]

Ha ha, he started even the guy on the left isn't ready!

[carolinillavainilla]

your day breaks, your mind aches... =/ beautiful!!

[WillShakespeare2007]

I have just got married and perfectly happy but this song still breaks my heart - wow!

[j4wn]

Anyone know when this session was recorded? It's not the original anyway, but it's very good.

[Medesio]

@j4wn Is taken from Macca's film "Give my regard to Broad Street" 1984

[j4wn]

@Medesio Thanks.

[vdizhoor]

The solution: Let it be! :)

[danielcastro3669]

i love the french horn ho my.. this song cuts it for me.. fuck the reptilian.

[SogoHorn]

Jeffrey Bryant- french horn

[ronkelly52]

Is that Alan Civil playing the French horn?

[MarcusBritish]

@ronkelly52 Yes, it was he.

[JohnPaulGeorgeRing0]

WOOT!!!1! GO FRENCH HORN GUY!!!1! lol

[shatowboy]

lol at 1:28, don't worry man, everybody cries

[jgiszas]

Weiß jemand, ob es diese Aufnahme auch auf CD gibt?

[TheOtherFifthBeatle]

wonderful song

[raymondonia]

like all Beatles songs good to come back to. ageless

[wilhelmschumann]

i love this song, terrific beautiful!

[maccasongarethebest]

for those of us in love with a woman that doesnt love us and yet we are there for her knowing her love is death leaving her heart broken and leaving us wanting and needing her, leaving our heart breaking.

[scorched14]

Yes.. Indeed

[greendayfanatic117]

i love this song...

[xoxonceuponatimexox]

This song makes me cry everytime I hear it :( very sad song:((

[barbarasarro]

This song makes me want to weep.........so beautiful.

[jaime52]

@barbarasarro Llorando....

[slinger485]

Quite possibly the saddest song ever written

[Horifice]

I think that's Jeff Bryant on the horn solo (on the original it was Alan Civil). Coming in note-perfect on such a high solo while appearing to have just walked in without warming up is doubtless a bit of horn-player's humour (this is from a film). It looks like he's using an F-descant horn. Civil probably recorded it on a B-flat single and managed to make the high notes sing a bit more. Still, it's a difficult solo in a rotten key for the instrument; hats off to anyone who can do it on any horn.

[soaringvulture]

@Horifice Very good. I'd never have spotted the French horn humor without some pointers.

[clodette014]

I love paul!

[0oJMPo0]

cool rare videoo! :)

[Etnecserc]

I love these sad introspective torch songs by McCartney

[greenvelvet]

This is from the Film "Give my regards to broadstreet" bought it for 3.99 at blockbuster.

[287lelux]

...my beautiful sweet sadness...

[LinkThatLove]

where is this from?

[etks1957]

@LinkThatLove the movie "Give My Regards to Broadstreet" a great soundtrack. "No more lonely nights" several Beatles songs, including a nice version of "The Long and Winding Road" Worth checking out if you like the Beatles.

[ladyterrific]

Great !!!!!!!!! LOVES IT ~~

[kingjohntown]

this is such a great song, as all the beatles songs are

[PotterNo1]

Now if you'd have asked me what instrument that hook was played on before I'd seen this, French horn would have been my last guess!

[carryxmextoxthexend]

I FKN LOVE THAT MAN.

[brassheavy]

Is this for real that the horn players comes in late?? he plays amazing!! Why do we need a warm-up......

[dazmalski]

Just - wow! 101 songwriting right there.

[jsilkcut]

on your kness my boys.....you are in the presence of genius. Just another throw-a-way gem of a song from the man !

[laurocr7]

@jsilkcut you are totally right man I'm with you this guy was a master and song's god

[powerpats]

just back from a live concert from Paul mc Cartney :D

[Sodamlucky27]

MacHead??

[lesterarda]

"...a love that should have lasted years."

hits the target right where it really hurts a lot.

[wrexham56]

@lesterarda Du hättest keine besseren Worte finden können;

what I was trying to say is that you couldn't find better words!

Sorry, that I'm a fucking german.

[ghost20063]

@wrexham56 its cool. we know not all of you liked hitler

[JunjouFan805]

@lesterarda doesnt it? its making me cry... hits the heart in the weakest part...

[vincentmack37]

i think paul mccartney is good at music n stuff

[CountJazz]

Jeff Bryant wins.

[cheesemuncher]

yea you know mate

[sleepalldayy]

this song makes me cry, its beautiful. paul mccartney is beautiful as well, inside and out

[ZzFelipinhoZz]

Chorei *--*

[LouisJopling]

No words can explain how much of a pleasure it is to listen to this..

One day when life comes to an end, it is things like this that you'l miss

[danneisen]

quite possibly the greatest song about heartbreak ever written...

[FernAveEnt]

@danneisen agreed

[ShawnP73]

This video was from the movie Give My Regards to Broadstreet. Came out in the 80s at some point. Was the same time the song No More Lonely Nights came out.

[TheFishMiester]

Micheal Jackson, eat your heart out, you have nothing on this guy !

[TheBeatlesL0VE]

Eat Your Heart Out? this aint the 90's dude lol

[LouisJopling]

Do you just like the Beatles because your friends do..?

[AmbulanceProductions]

What was this for? Does anyone know?

[LarksSaviour900]

it was for Jane Asher, his then fiancee. They were having troubles, arguing all the time etc, and one day McCartney composed this, it's all about heart break. Beautiful song, gotta love McCartney :)

[AmbulanceProductions]

Oh, I know that. I just meant why was he re-recording it, was it for that Broadstreet movie? Thanks for the good intention though lol

[soaringvulture]

@LarksSaviour900 Lots of guys have troubles with girls; a million musicians wrote songs about it. But McCartney wrote *this*. "For No One" puts his heartbreak into everyone who hears it. That's what separates him from the rest of us.

[DiegoCG1]

the simplicity of the french horn is amazing

[DrNatalieP]

It still amazes me to see people still commenting on a song that was originally recorded 43 years ago! 

It's wonderful to be able to share these gems with my children, and have them love them as much as I did growing up.

[ciarandel548]

Well put! and i even love them more now than before.

[Bach251]

Classic paul's ballade!! Lovely!

[senieandsusie]

*sniffle* so loverly

[majorsheen]

the best break up song ever penned...... who hurt you paul?!

[Staev]

Jane Asher, if memory serves.

Remarkable piece of work, this song. It might well be my very favorite Beatles song.

[TheFishMiester]

Probably  Late 1966, because the song was on Rubber Soul ! He's recording the main track, and the others would add to it later !

[aron4him]

This song was originally on the Beatles' album "Revolver", not "Rubber Soul". This is not a clip from 1966, but from the McCartney made movie "Give My Regards to Broadstreet" in 1984. The original song has the piano playing the part that the strings are playing on this version. The French horn solo part remains the same.

[thenowuk]

This is from 1984!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't you see he's 20 years older and his voice is an octave or so deeper!

[lukesp13]

what is this clip from?

[TheFishMiester]

Who's the Nimrod that says that's not Paul ? Pull your head out if your Patoot !

[13lackIII]

I LOVE this version.

[schissmoll]

This is not Paul Mccartney.

[MaxwellsAttourney]

Uh, do you know what paul looks / sounds like? It most certainly is paul mccartney

[fireblast136]

wut an idiot

[DrNatalieP]

I've been a fan for > 45 years- from the Beatles, to present.

I've heard his voice on vinyl- 45's, and LP's, cassettes, 8-tracks, CD's, on the radio- both AM, and later, FM. I've seen him in movies, on television- from B&W, to color, on the internet, in mono, hi-fi, stereo, surround, remastered by the cirq show "Love", and was fortunate enough to have seen/heard him live in concert-

There is no one remotely like him, and this IS, without a doubt, Sir James Paul McCartney, AND his voice.

[cap5macca5jack5]

schissmoll are a moron? thats sir paul unless ur been living under a rock~pull ur head out of ur ass!!

[beatlefan01]

One of Paul´s Best

[MortyKBG]

Better with clavichord :)

[magiccube1028]

I love this song and this version of it
