Paul did a lot of the solo singing for the beatles. But he and John wrote most of their songs together. this one is a solo. Paul's songs had a different lighter quality than John's more deep music. they are two of our huge talents from the whole century. it so awesome to read all of your comments and that this generation is enjoying their great music!!
@kattmassey It's a misconception that Paul wrote the "pop" songs while Lennon wrote the serious ones. Have you listened to Eleanor Rigby or Helter Skelter lately? I don't think any Beatles song is "more deep" than Eleanor Rigby. I don't think Helter Skelter has a "lighter quality" at all. They were both great songwriters whose music cannot be stereotyped.
A great demo by Macca! He gave this song to Badfinger to help launch their career. Badfinger reworked it a little in the studio, but Paul told them that AFTER they make it big, they can rewrite whatever they want. But for this song, Paul insisted that they play it EXACTLY the way Paul (and The Beatles) did the demo. Paul guaranteed Badfinger it would be a hit, and he was right!
this is no fake paul wrote it and played all instruments alone on it when he was still in the beatles i seen paul play it live 3 days ago at his concert in manchester men arena it was great
Technically is this really The Beatles? It's just Paul singing and playing the instruments all by his lone self. Then again so was "Eleanor Rigby" so I suppose one person can the Beatles be.
Wow! I've been a fan of this song since I watched the Magic Christian when I was about 5 years old. Thank you for uploading this, sir! I knew the background of the song with good'ole Paul helping out Badfinger, and a number of other bands, but I didn't know this was out there.
As I understand it from his official biography, Paul wrote and cut this recording at home and then brought it in to play expressly for Badfinger. He introduced it as a number one to the band. They had the idea that they would take the song and make it their own via change in arrangement, etc. to which McCartney demonstratively commanded that the song must be played exactly as it was on his demo recording. He knew that the tune as heard here, would be a guaranteed # 1. He was right!
This IS Paul McCartney's demo of this song, which he wrote. He gave it to Badfinger and told them to do it just like the demo. They smartly did so. Thanks for posting this, I have it on a bootleg..........
Might I postulate an alternative theory old chaps? Do you recall Peter Noone? I didn't thinks so, Herman and the Hermits. The most popular rock band in 1965. A catchy little tune that gives a slight jab at the establishment, but nothing compared to what they did later. I thank god they did not take their managers advice to give the people what they think they want, like Simon Cowell who tells you what you want to hear! Art must come from the heart!
Badfinger was supposed to be the next Beatles. Due too poor management and the death of the singer (Hayme? spell check). They became one of the biggest bands, under the Apple Record label.
thanks for posting this, It's really cool to hear Paul singing his demo of this song wich he generously gave away to Badfinger.Paul knew Peter Ham and Badfingers talent, and helped make sure we did too!
Yes, this is Paul singing and playing all the instruments. It was recorded as a demo and wounded up with his Badfinger friends which I believe it scored a hit
@FabFM I agree they were diverse but I still think there's a "beatles sound", for example in many songs they have distinct harmony vocals, double tracking, simple lyrics in their early days (lots of words like love, she and yeah), strong drum beat, somewhat long guitar solos, smooth lines between chorus and other verses etc
@OceanderTethyseus That's Paul, 100% positively. This demo has been around for a long, long time on bootlegs. In fact, there's a copy of this with Tom Evans of Badfinger singing on top of it while he was learning the lyrics.
@longview1987 Its a joke the beatles did on one of there albums in lue of thoughs who said that if you played it backwards it would play satanic messages, cant remember the album but supposely when played backwards they inposed "Paul is Dead Man, miss em', miss em'"
The Magic Christian by Terry Southern. Read it sometime. It's quite different from the later movie in which Ringo was cast. This song is about one Guy Grand who amused himself by using his money to play jokes on people - to make them make fools of themselves.
This song is a toss-off for McCartney. Very slight. If it was a major work, you can bet that he would have kept it for the Beatles or himself. Badfinger's "No Matter What", and a couple of their other songs, are far superior.
@gotmonkey92 Yep. Check out his right hand, he's tuning, not playing. And he's holding his ear to the body of the instrument to hear and feel the vibrations.
McCartney (and John) threw away more GREAT songs than anyone could hope to write !
4 Badfinger hits, the Stones' FIRST hit "I Wanna Be Your Man", Peter and Gordon "World Without Love", (Peter Asher being Paul's girlfriend at the time Jane Asher's brother ).... the list goes on.
Why on earth would Macca throw this away? He is the greatest songwriter ever, but he hasn't got a good taste to recognize which of his songs are good and which aren't. He recorded "wild honey pie" while he gave this jewel to other people.
This was never intended to be on Abbey Road. This version was in the Anthology 3 cd and it says he wrote the song for Badfinger (then still using the name The Iveys). He showed up early one morning before the rest of the Beatles and recorded everything by himself in under an hour. (They apparently worked on Sun King in the session later that day)
@chilibro not really, this is PAUL; i saw this picture in a Paul's special tv, and if you see well this is Paul; i'm sorry but this is Paul and not George!!!
Whoever the IDIOT is that it is not Paul McCartney, GO GET YOUR EARS CHECKED. HAVE THE CRAP SUCKED OUT. That is Paul McCartney singing. I agree that the Badfinger guy did a great job.
@Yellyist Oh yeah? I offered to eat my hat if it wasn't John Lennon on the chorus of "Changes" by David Bowie. I swear it was either him, or an uncredited version of him, If I had a hat, I'd have to eat it.
@Yellyist Oh I do. I was just bitching about being told I was wrong about Lennon. If you have time, listen to Changes and when they start the chorus, "Turn and face the strange" [changes] tell me if it sounds like Lennon to you.
@scizot John Lennon worked with David Bowie on "Fame" which they wrote together, so it`s not impossible that they worked together on other things as well.
@ekim10191 I think its Paul, well never heard bad finger but Paul have an unique voice, last night i listen this at the radio about 4:04 am (at that time start raining :D ) well i write some lyrics because i dont know what song was it, just about 4 minutes ago now, i know that this song is from the beatles...it surprise me a lot dude.
Wow, the echo/reverb on this one (on the Anthology 3 version) is completely gone! Much drier sound, and I feel like he's actually in the studio playing in front of me!
@Gnomitolindo I am a big Beatle fan.....I read that Macca thought the song fit Evans voice very well...Paul was right ,as usual, ....Come and get it became a great hit!
@Freyja1133 It`s just a fucking demo man, i`m sure Paul would have made a great version of it if he had recorded it! It would have been great on "McCartney" or "Ram"
@Freyja1133 It's almost exactly the same. Infact badfinger were told to play it exactly the same as this demo except for the added harmonies they put in.
Tell that to the makers of the board game Beatlemania. It is Lennon and McCartney that wrote it. Beatle Tracks a Beatle cover band asked that question on April 30th and they also said that it is Lennon and McCartney that wrote the song for badfinger.
I loved the picture of Ringo as a Mariachi!!! Thank you Ringo it is indeed a marvellous suit!! But anyway I think this song should've been another smash hit by The Beatles and in this demo eventhough Paul's voice is awesome, I really missed John's and George's harmonies!
John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song and No Matter What for Badfinger. Both songs were maid before Abbey Road was in production. It is a question in the Beatlemania board game. It did not fade out at all from popularity it is still popular today.

@Yellyist Geez ,I Know that it's only a demo...

@Freyja1133 It's almost exactly the same. Infact badfinger were told to play it exactly the same as this demo except for the added harmonies they put in.

Tell that to the makers of the board game Beatlemania. It is Lennon and McCartney that wrote it. Beatle Tracks a Beatle cover band asked that question on April 30th and they also said that it is Lennon and McCartney that wrote the song for badfinger.

I loved the picture of Ringo as a Mariachi!!! Thank you Ringo it is indeed a marvellous suit!! But anyway I think this song should've been another smash hit by The Beatles and in this demo eventhough Paul's voice is awesome, I really missed John's and George's harmonies!

This is WAY better than the ridiculously doctored-up, reverb-drenched remix that appeared on Anthology 3.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song and No Matter What for Badfinger. Both songs were maid before Abbey Road was in production. It is a question in the Beatlemania board game. It did not fade out at all from popularity it is still popular today.

@SS4Gweedo This is a solo McCartney composition that he gave to Badfinger. Pete Ham wrote "No Matter What" Get it straight now!

What a great song. Too bad Paul gave this one away but good to hear his take on it.
