  • It should be included that this was recorded AFTER he recorded it with The Beatles on the White album.

  • wow thats across the universe melody in there. apparently that was written during the white album period as well. very interesting to see how Lennon wrote music. thank you for these!

  • This is from the bootleg album "Lost In Weybridge"

  • I think this is one of his most underated tunes. Ilike the lyric to. At least he wasn't going on about peace n all that bullshit.

  • Hmm is that "Panic in Detroit" by David Bowie at 2:30?

  • @augustusdes Unlikely as that was made till the 70's.

  • @augustusdes In case you haven't heard by now Cry Baby Cry came iout in 1968 and Panc In Detroit came out in 1973

  • @Asskicker32294 Just to clear this up now, I was only making an observation of the similarites between the two. Im totally and utterly aware of the dates of the two songs. Im a big fan of Bowie and the Beatles..

  • These are wonderful! I begin to understand John's composition styling.

  • @JamesTKirkCobain

    yeah sure

  • if one was to steal something.. it is easy to do. now trace back it was stolen-- especially if you were told you were creative. i never did give it to the pigs that steal.,.. i tried not to.

  • @cshargeit what you on about?

  • I always liked this song...the cryptic Dylanesque lyrics but John said that he hated it...I dig A Pony too...

  • @Asskicker32294 did lennon ever praise any of his own work later on ? it's amazing some of the songs of his that he called "rubbish" in interviews. i just wonder if he really felt this way or is looking for a reaction.

  • @FatherofMan25 He said that the Plastic Ono Band songs from the first album, Imagine, and Mind Games were as good as anything he did with the Beatles...Strawberry Fields Forever, I Am The Walrus, Across The Universe, Help!, and his songs on the white album seemed to be his favorites

  • @Asskicker32294 cool info. however i remember reading him talking about the song "Help!" being a disappointment overall as he was aiming for something slower and more folksy when he originally penned it.

  • @FatherofMan25Listen to Deep Purple's cover of Help! on their first album...it shows Lennon was on to something about a slower version

  • The Two Virgins soundtrack is playing in the background

  • @tapeduk No,that the same two tape loops he used later for Two Virgins.[this is before the Beatles went to India].

  • Que buen canal.. gracias por subir todo estos demos gracias

  • I'm gifted!

    mais duas em uma bem no dia do meu aniversário!  and in a brilliant performance!

    Gracias!

  • Felicidades ahora, amigo...! Un extraño regalo esta rara grabación donde creo John Lennon ya tenía casi todas las ideas claras para esta pieza, suerte...

  • There is also a few seconds of Across The Universe in there too.

  • @jaywhofan it definitely is the tune for across the universe, but they lyrics are so different from "jai guru, deva om..."

  • i love this.

  • i love this song
