she is from 1950 so in 1969 (I think) she was 19 .
and yes, she was lovely, absolutely.
It was anudder time and age when woman had to go to "my lover's side" when he called her. Hmmm, good old days, oh yes, she sings 'those where the days' too. Surely a song with vision.
This was my favorite Mary Hopkin song. I liked it even more than her biggest hit (you all know, Those Were The...). I recall seeing photos of the recording sessions with Paul Macca and thinking how lucky she was. Thank you.
@happycali09 Hah! I was just thinking the same thing! I got withing 15 feet of him at a concert back in 1976 and my knees just went weak. He was absolutely gorgeous!
Not only it was a great honor for Mary Hopkins to sing this song written by Paul McCartney, but it was a greater honor to have him right next to her while she sang it, as this video shows.
uno dei video piu rari di tuta la storia dei beatles.....qusta canzon scritta da paul non e' mai stata incisa dai fab se non sui booylesgs ottimo grazie all'autore
O interessante é que a música do Paul McCartney tomou o primeiro lugar dos próprios Beatles na época. E assim também aconteceu com Woman Without Love (também dele), gravada por Peter and Gordon. Me parece que outros casos também.
Trivia Question: Q: What Key is Mary Hopkin singing "Goodbye" in???? You'll notice she's got her capo on the 4th fret and using Key of C open fingerings.
Answer: The Key of F. Playing bar chords I find out almost instantaneously she's doing 1-6m-4-5 in The Key of F. Bar chords are a lot harder to play but you never get thrown by capo and absolutely know the Key you're playing in :)
She was only 16 (I think) at the time. Not so sure how well that would have gone down. Plus, he'd already hooked up with LInda for a while by the time this came out.
@forbiddenvalley Yes.... but I think he was still dating Jane Asher at the time and, besides, who says the decision would be his entirelyu? A pretty little thing like Mary could have her pick of the bunch any time.
I remember the review in NME the week ending april 5 1969 when goodbye was reviewed ; the reporter wrote "she could do with song training because she tends to gasp occasionally but it doesn't take away the overall effect" I agree
He is trying to sing the song to her, he is also rehearsing backing vocalists which you do not see in this clip... this film is much longer in its entirity...
I think you can see both Peter Asher and Richard Hewson in this film and it even says on the 45 of Goodbye arranged by Richard Hewson and on Sparrow as well and is mentioned in the book Those were the Days why Tony Visconti contacted Richard Hewson when he wanted to record Let my name be sorrow he used Hewson too and with Rich Wakeman on piano!
Mary was born in Pontardawe, Wales to a Welsh-speaking family. She released an EP of Welsh language songs for a local record label called Cambrian who were based in her home town, before signing to the Beatles' Apple Records. The model Twiggy saw her winning the British ITV television talent show Opportunity Knocks and recommended her to Paul McCartney.[1] She became one of the first artists to record on the Beatles' Apple record label.
Paul uses his right hand to smoke because being a "south paw" was still looked down upon during his childhood so his Father tried to get him to use his right hand as much as possible even though he was left handed. Sometimes he uses the right, sometimes he uses the left.
awww, she was so cute! and so was he ;)
