@cherrystraws@JunkManMachinima it was recorded on april 28-29 of 1966! and was the second song on revolver which was released in 1966 and was also a single on August 5th :)
I love how when your trying to listen this with a friend on an ipod only one of you can hear the words. Ah the lonely people who have friends and ipods...
My name is Eleanor Rigby but Rigby is my middle name. My moms from France and this was the first song she heard when she got here. So she said the first girl she had would be named Eleanor and 15 years later with 7 brothers here I am: Eleanor Rigby Minerva Rose
I first time I heard this song I thought the Beatles were making fun of lonely people during the first two lines. The "Ah" sounded like a "Ha" and the violin almost sounds like, "Hahahahaha."
I am soooo freeking excited, because we get to play this in orchestra!!!!!! I've always loved this song, so I'm just like practicing my bass all day!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR THE CONCERT WISH OUR 12 PERSON ORCHESTRA LUCK!!!!
@MusicPlayer10497 i still think it's that. i just think it is a error. or a mishearing, due to the british accent making that 'i' sound somewhat disappear.
@CrazyZeComedy are you suggesting that lonely people are bad? actually, a lot of lonely people like this song. The song isn't mocking lonely people, it's refering to Eleanor Rigby being a lonely person.
@OddManSam Well i was just watching this video and looked at the dislikes and thought wow!Look at all the lonely people who clicked the dislike button and that was how my comment was born
The song is based on when the beatles were younger they would go to a cemetery and drink wine and there was a linely grave that noone would ever visit and the name on the tombstone was elanor rigby
@circuitjerkis Yep. I agree. Have you watched the video of Free As A Bird when Paul was in the cemetery dancing and see the graveyard of Eleanor Rigby but it is Paul's?!
i think that people who dislike beatles etc songs are bieber fans who think that beatles steal melodies from bieber like queen..i don't want to live on this planet anymore
@MusikSkull Beatles are from the sixties,asshole.Bieber is from our modern times.Queen never stole one song from Bieber as they were also before Bieber.Asshole.
@rockinrodney5000 you're such a douchbag..how can i possibly admire justin bieber in front of legends such as beatles and queen.. justin bieber is shit compare to them. i make this comment as an ironic phrase for the fucking assholes called dislikers or sth.. i didn't say THAT I'M A BIEBER FAN who believes that queen or beatles or other bands steal from him FOR GODS SHAKE! i said that people who dislike beatles songs probably are bieber fans etc..read AGAIN and then call me names
I always wondered if this really counted as a Beatles effort. They didn't play the instruments, and I don't think they even composed the music, just the lyrics. I think George Martin should have as much credit as the band for this one.
okay well... Anyone notice at the bottom right hand corner below the video it says Bee Eaters.... Lol really Youtube?!?!?! You can't count and spell the Beatles... What a disgrace!
@Nikkiknokker2 It wasn't youtube's fault. The info comes from iTunes and Amazon. At the time this video was uploaded, iTunes didn't have rights to any of the original Beatles recordings (things changed around the time the Beatles Rock Band game came out). I'm not sure if Amazon had rights either. The Bee Eaters were a band who did Beatles covers, including this song, so that's why it appears here.
I was thinking that the song may reflect on a community in war...people try to be happy but feel they have no place in which they belong. Food is so scarce that Eleanor Rigby eats the rice from the church...Father Mackenzie sews his socks for something to do and like BlackVeilBridesFan96 said nobody really knew her...
