  • John....your voice and music lives forever. What a great song.

  • Lennon's voice is truly amazing.

  • Just hauntingly great

  • I know some people would point out little things in the song that sort of stick out, for example a comment like, That Bass, or That Piano! But I just want to say: Man, that band!

  • I love it.Has many qualities which make it great.

  • John himself considered this "a piece of shit", but I've always loved it; shows what an original songwriter he could be ...

  • I love the bass in this one! xD

  • This song is awesome!!!!!!

  • O.O I ALREADY HEARD THIS BEFORE but i dont know when and where Oo

  • the production on this recording gives us the mature Beatles sound Lennon's low piano ringo's side drum made to sound like foot stomping listen to Hello Good Bye it's there too..

  • @falco485

    trashy!

  • @falco485 Well, it shows ur an asshole.

  • 2 people are not old enough to know better.

  • Can there ever be another voice like John Lennon's!

  • @ramon19141 I doubt it; but we can only hope.

  • not dark, totally english...if u ever get the chance to liverpool...love

  • Hollywood Alive by Adam Hartmann

  • My favorite song on the White Album!!!!

  • Where can I hear the original, where ...."by the children"...only comes through one channel?

  • such a freakin great song!!!

    the beatles are amazing!

  • Is that Ringo singing at the end?

  • @Revolver6238 I think it's Paul..

    

  • @Revolver6238 paul

  • @Revolver6238 Paul

  • @Revolver6238 It is Paul.

  • It's a Paul's song called "Can you take me back?"

    /watch?v=FBJyQQhHuck

  • 2:34

  • How can anyone dislike this?? Revolution #9 I can understand, but this song was done so well....

  • My favorite song on this album.

  • love it!!!!!

  • i absolutely love the ending to the song where paul jumps in. i wish they made a song from that last bit

  • @IXsalazarXI

    look up "can you take me back"

  • @IXsalazarXI I don't know if this counts but... /watch?v=FBJyQQhHuck

  • @IXsalazarXI that last bit is a seperate unlisted jam, often called can you take me back'

  • The Beatles at their darkest were the Beatles at their best

  • the white album is the most random work of art ever. I have never listened to an album that just throws you for a loop each time you hear it.

  • @joemoe23 RIGHT!!!! THATS WHAT I ALWAYS SAY i say never has an album had so many types of different music in it, its like they did everything in here it doesnt follow one genre but it kicks ass!, i think this album was underrated... sure Abbey Road and Sgt Peppers was great but theres somthing about the White Album that just entices me ya know?

  • @TheSOADLIFE for me it's like this: if you had to show someone a Beatles album, it would probably be Abbey Road...but if you could only have one Beatles album, it has to be the White Album, for exactly the reason you said- everything there is to say about this band can be said on this album.

  • This is a masterpiece.

  • beatles museum tommorow man i cant wait :) its like a pilgramige (or however you spell it) lol its gonna be greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat :)

  • @thehandylightman did you enjoy ? I went down to liverpool good few years ago and did the tour - luved it - one of the best weekends of my life 

  • @thegazzamataz yeah its brilliant in it man :) seeing all the guitars that they actually played and all its amazing :) i found the imagine part very moving aswell the white room and the piano :) there was an elvis exibition on at the time also id never reaally listened to elvis or known much about him but it was really interesting to see the influence on them all, particularly john :) yeah it was great :)

  • @thehandylightman where is the bealtes museum at?!?!?! i HAVE  to goooo:D

  • @thebeatlesbeachboys its in liverpool on the albert dock its great :) its called the beatles story :) its minnt :D

  • @thehandylightman I didn't actually do the museum bit. I went on the magical mystery tour. Went round all the houses where they were brought up, places of note. Penny lane, strawberry fields etc and dropped of at the caveren club for good ole swally and watch a few live acts

  • Number 9 Number 9 Number 9...

  • @TheBraybeatles YES, definitely Paisley Park! I guess the way Lennon is singing in this song,..I can actually hear Prince singing it. Also what came to mind was the Under the Cherry Moon soundtrack for some reason.

  • No one ever talks about the ending! Why is this? I once heard that everything you need to know about the Beatles' is contained in this song, and I think that's especially true of the intro. McCartney's dark almost mystical outro is just other

    worldly...

  • No one ever talks about the ending! Why is this? I once heard that everything you need to know about the Beatles' is contained in this song, and I think that's especially true of the intro. McCartney's dark almost mystical outro is just other worldly...

  • I can tell by listening to this song that Prince was inspired by the Beatles. Almost sounds like a song that he would cover.

  • @sunflowernoo. I never saw that till now! Paisley Park and so much else is here

  • "...with voices out of nowhere put on 'specaially by the children for a lark."

  • I am going to form a band, and make it my goal to cover this song. The ending will be extended 5 minutes.

  • @stonegrooved hey your right John did love Lewis Carrol and this sounds like it should be in Alice in Wonderland

  • Dedicate this song to my ex

  • 2:36 How I love this end hbegfvbguylzidfhgvhihzk

    And the whole song is perfection.

  • I wanna start a cover group with three friends and I would ONLY DO SIXTIES MUSIC!!! O.O

  • Wonderful song.

    I'm not one of those who thinks that Paul is dead, really, but to me the last words seem to say "can you DIG me" instead of "take"...don't they?

  • @MatthewDovetail yeah, it sounds take me back to where I came from as well.

  • Wow!! sounds quite different. You hear every sound clearly!!

  • No doubt one of their best later songs.

  • When i get into a band, my goal is to convince the band to cover this song but extend the ending into a giant 10 minute jam session. you can tell i'm into prog rock lol

  • can you can you take me baaaaaaccccckkkk........take me back :0

  • Anyone who had heard this with Ramsey Lewis?

  • @zulucase Yes,Mother Nature's Son album 1968 groovy album.

  • This song was highly underrated. I Love it!!

  • @Peoria3165 this has nothing to do with that...

  • @IamAsi94 Sure it does...

  • @Peoria3165 it doesnt.

  • @Peoria3165 isn't boehner the guy who cries on tv all the time?? ;)

  • @bluemeanie81 he's a politician, and yes, he does frequently cry in public

  • @Peoria3165

    aren't there more creative ways to trolling? or are you srsly THAT retarded?

  • @Peoria3165 Conclusion: You are communist.

    No shut up!

  • Is there a reason that all current copies of this song play the words ..."by the children...." through both headphones when on the original vinyl album that snippet only plays through one ear, as though he wasn't communicating with Manson, lol

  • In my opinion the best creepiest and happiest beatles song.  ?

  • @MrStaypuff32 it doesn't sound happy to me :P

  • la ultima parte que canta paul es lo mas chido

  • PAUL IS DEAD NOW, MISS HIM, MISS HIM !

    TURN ME ON DEAD MAN= NUMBER NINE-AH !

  • @BUZOSKARSON paul was never dead,that was just a hoax.

  • I am not one of those that subscribe to the Paul is dead conspiracy but I think this is one of the songs that those conspiracy theorists use to make that point.The end where Paul sings"Can you take me back" I think is a reference to him being on the "other side" so to speak. I do find this song somewhat creepy though and it is underrated

  • @baxtersave96 The whole thing is all false, the so called "tape" of Harrison is DEFINATELY not his voice especially since that was the time the cancer was taking effect on his voice, which got really rough and not clear how it was on the so called paul is dead tape

  • @AnAverageBox I really don't know what you are talking about. I did not mention anything about George Harrison and I don't know what tape you are refering to. I was talking about the Paul is dead rumors.I'm not saying that I believe them I'm just saying that this is one the songs that is often refered to as a clue.

  • @baxtersave96 The Paul is dead conspiracy came from this movie company that made a film about these recorded tapes of "George" telling about the whole thing. It was all faked yet people take it seriously.

  • @AnAverageBox i saw that movie, it didnt really sound like George

  • @TheMinnesota00 It's not

  • @TheMinnesota00 i kinda figured

  • @baxtersave96 yeah, now that i think about it, the lyrics before the "can you take me back" part are about a seance! but then john says the voices were put on by the children for a lark, so maybe it means nothing at all. hmm.

  • Am I the only one who finds this song incredibly dark?

  • @JimmyFraska Depends on what you mean by 'dark'

  • @JimmyFraska So is Maxwells silver hammer

  • @JimmyFraska I've always thought this song had a rather somber mood...

  • I think this song is about Lebron James!

  • @dtscool Actually it's about John Boehner

  • @stonegrooved now i think about it it does kinda sound like Alice in Wonderland wow i did,t know that John loved Lewis Carrol ok it make sense

  • :) Great song! 

  • Love This Song ..

  • Love the drums

  • It´s a poem!!!!!!!!!!

  • The comments are great. But after the world comes to an end on Saturday let's all agree to shut the fuck up and help our fellow man. After all, no one gives a fuck what we say. It is what we do that makes a difference.

  • The last 40 seconds made me cum.

  • the voices out of nowhere put on specially by the children for a lark--My favorite Line

  • 2 people aren't old enough to know better.

  • i heard its about some satanistic ritual....listen ti the words...

    cant believe,but seems so...

  • @plesisnjim I dont think that phatasie and satanistic is just the same!

  • I sing this for my little brother whe he cries, he's 1 year old and this works perfect as a lullaby...

  • 1 person is a cry baby

  • some poor pathetic fool hit the wrong button

  • @prober45

    another person is wasting their energy.

  • Honestly think the ending of this song where Paul sings "can you take me back where i came from" is the greatest part of this song.

  • haha when my younger sister used to get mad and myself and my older brother we used to sing this to her and she would cry even more!...haha the good old days of my childhood....im a big rap fan, but my brother brainwashed me with The Beatles and im glad he did :)

  • @hollerATyaTWIGyaDIG Tch, I think you got it backwards, you've been brainwashed with rap XD

  • 1 person isn't old enough too know better ;-)

  • Amazing bass at 0:50

  • I love the ending

    "Can you take me back..."

  • "Cry Baby Cry!" How it's become something we say about anyone who's whinning!

  • maybye the best white album son along w/ 'long, long, long'?

  • deffinetly one of my favourite beatles songs it sounds ahead of their time but i guess they always were

  • @stonegrooved why yes it does! :3

  • love this song… very John and very beautiful.

  • bello

  • I don't think Lewis Carroll inspired this song. I think Lennon was none too subtly satirizing the empty, vapid lives of Britain's aristocratic class.

  • @stonegrooved stoned and poetic-- I was just thinking of Through the Looking Glass as I watched another YT vid of this song...the children's surreal afternoon that can turn on a menacing piano chord

  • 2:30 - I'm surprised that Paul never made a song out of that

  • @HookedOnSonics518 Actually, he did. never released though. Officially that is. It was like a 2 minute song. They just added a segment to the end of this song.

  • @stonegrooved

    ringo played that?

  • Cry, baby, cry!!! hahahahahahahahahaha

  • jhaley12,i couldn't agree more.

  • brillant album
