[ChickFourTwenty]

This song.. is just too damn short.

[latinokid9]

This song has nothing on the original! Beatles for life!

[PatSikorski]

This song is honestly one of the few things that has helped me through all the troubles I am having with this malpractice law suit... it truly helps heal wounds... Thank you to the Beatles for beautiful lyrics, thank you Miss Wood for the voice. <33333 Thank you across the universe for casting her... best decision ever made.

[mikemotorbikeca]

@PatSikorski Namaste!

[Avitubeful]

The background music sounds so irish celtic the first time I encountered that song. There's no other description for this background music.

[16SandyD]

haha, the beatles have apple as one of their logos and this movie has a strawberry.....what's with the fruit??

[rareflorence]

[lechuck96]

I wasn't big on the movie, but Evan singing the Beatles is heavenly

[shinigamixheartless]

SO beautiful.

[BonezIsDead]

I didn't like her at all. Well, in some parts she was okay. But the rest she just seemed whiney to me. She's a good singer, but her talking gets on my nerves. :/

[hawk654]

I always get lost in this song.

[persephone750]

She has the prettiest alto voice makes her high notes sound so delicate.

[DJ118USMC]

EVEN RACHEL WOOD IS AMAZING!

[MackDogLive]

My favourite Beatles tune. No matter who sings it, it always sounds beautiful.

Five stars.

[itzelinthesky]

Sweet, Evan, very sweet. pretty voice!

[underbuksepsykologen]

Lovely :)

[DJ118USMC]

@2012teamjasper

YES! Very SEXY! 8D

[NYChica23]

@2012teamjasper Agreed...I never would've expected her to be such a good singer ♥♥

[Blackbirdsingsinme13]

they're amazing! but what do they have to do with atu?

[AgentDemonEyes]

@Blackbirdsingsinme13 Ohhh, you see, the movie/musical/whatever they made...these are the tracks and such. I would like to see it as how Mamma Mia is to ABBA as Across The Universe is to The Beatles...

If that makes ANY sense. :3

[MatchGirl]

@AgentDemonEyes I agree- this is a derivative work, based on something that was brilliant that came before. It both stands on the shoulders of giants and becomes something of its own, beautiful in its own right.

If we never had covers, if we never could appreciate anything other than an original, we would never be able to hear This Land is Your Land other than sung by Woodie Guthrie and Eva Cassidy would have never been able to have sung the blues.

[AgentDemonEyes]

@MatchGirl Ah~ You just said what I wanted to, but so much more eloquent. X3

Exactly~ Oh, I would die if This Land is Your Land was never covered. (I can't stand Woodie Guthrie. D:)

:3 FINALLY. Someone who appreciates covers~

[MatchGirl]

@AgentDemonEyes Woodie Guthrie is...unique. He takes some getting used to and seems to be an acquired taste for most folks I have spoken to.

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, they say. If something is appreciated enough that it lasts the decades the Beatles' songs have, they are going to be covered and reinterpreted as times change. Without that, songs are forgotten. There are reasons why movies, songs, and plays from the 1940s aren't redone- they don't resonate with people today.
