  • It really sucks at 2:20

  • johns voice is the best thing ever !!!!!!

  • i love how i can hear George's voice stand out, he's so amazing x) thumbs up if George Harrison is your favorite Beatle! :D

  • Wow! Great posting, what a fantastic live performance of a great song. Lennon's voice was incredible.

  • deservedly the best band ever .

  • woww 01:11 JOHN!!!

  • One of my very favorites. Thanks for posting.

  • John in all his glory. He would remain the elite singer he was until he was gone forever.

  • WOW !! Thats the voice of Lennon !!!

  • to me the best part comes at the end when john looks at paul & george ,it seems like he's saying to himself that was good

  • Waiting for history to repeat itself...still waiting.....still waiting....'62 to '72 are you listening?

  • Oh I wish I was back then to witness the early days of Beatlemania, must have been so much fun back in England

  • And how many solo hits did these guys have in the 70's? All those voices together on this one. Except for Ringo who had a ton of solo hits.

  • now that is live

  • I can really relate to this song. I love how there is a Beatles song for every situation that your in.

  • THIS "BOY" starts to feel the heat....

  • johns voice cracked. but he didnt care and came back rly quick and made this a great preformance

  • THEY CAME AT THE TIME WHEN AMERICA WAS SO DEPRESSED WHEN JFK WAS SHOT THEIR MUSIC WAS WHAT USA NEEDED...MY ALL TIME FAB GROUP..IM 58 YRS OLD NOW STILL MY FAVORITE.GROUP..BEATLE FAN 4 EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • They were a miracle.

  • You can see the similarities with this song and Yes it is

  • @Voxac100b I came here after having just listened to Yes It Is :)

  • I believe Jonh Lennon had the best rock in roll voice ever. Musical orgasm 1:00 - 1:29. Thank you Beatles!

  • Simple song, ....but harmonies just so, so good, .... a real pleasure to hear--perks up your mood, ....like most Beatles songs will do!

  • I love John's raw, single voice sooo much. It's so sad that he himself didn't like it :(

  • I'm always AMAZE and wonder on John Lennon Strumming... He doesn't move his arm... It's always up down but never see up twice or down???

  • @ShamyNas16 haha anybody that plays guitar knows its all in the wrists haha

  • Lennon's solo = AMAZING!

  • I think a lot of people here would like to see them live, just as I wish I could. I really believe that dream could have been true if that shit guy did not put his fuk... hand on the gun that kill Mr. Lennon.

    Sorry about my English.

  • I was born in the wrong century... I wish I could see them play live :/

  • 1:01 to 1:29, Lennons voice...phenom

  • @DLow1290 You are so right! They are one of a small handful of entertainers that are described by their name - they play Beatle music. There is no other way to describe it. There have been many great groups in the last 50 years or so, but only a few are categorized by their type of music because there is no other way to explain it. I was a teenager when they burst on the scene, and to think that only a few short years before, folk music and The Kingston Trio was the hottest thing going!

  • @DLow1290 And to think he was so self-conscious about it!

  • @DLow1290 It always be..!!

  • @DLow1290 my favorite vocal solo of all time. 28 seconds of power.

  • Awesome in every way. Live singing and playing - genius, passion and musicality all rolled into one. I love this song. Thank god for the Beatles. The world is so much better for their music.

  • you van't say ones the best and ones the worst. this is THE BEATLES. without john, they wouldn't have his leadership, without paul, you wouldn't have the harmonies, without george, you wouldn't have the backup vocals and guitar solos, with ringo you wouldn't have the beat. Without the Beatles, you wouldn't have a life <3

  • My God lennon has a great voice. yes i say has because you can not kill genius like his. It just gets better with time. They are one band that deserves every acolade bestowed upon them1

  • 50 años de buena música. vivan los clásicos

  • I love John's solo, and you can tell that it was live because at one point in the song, John's voice breaks

  • great guitar in this song thumbs up if you think so?

  • Lennon's solo always gives me chills! I learned harmony listening to the Beatles as a little kid --and whenever I have to sing a church, I can't resist harmonizing!

  • Thanks for the memory, my favourite song ever

  • they are and alway's will be timeless I love there music somuch.

  • Wow, I thought they just lip sinking. That was an almost perfect performace of that song.

  • @sonnyandbilly c'mon now they never lip sank

  • @sonnyandbilly Lip syncing was first introduced and used in 1981. But yes, they sound amazing.

  • i think john...er...lost his breath or something at 1:10. haha. paul is cute as always.

  • 1:12 wtf!

  • dang John belt it out! Love this one.

  • i loved this song since last saturday,i returned home and i watched on dvd their first apearance at usa on ed sullivan show,i have buyed the dvd 2 months ago but i opened it the last saturday.The atmosphere in my house was great.You know when out is snowing and you are relaxing on your coach watching old stuff that you love is so beautiful.I hope you will share a great moment with the beatles like i did.The funny thing is that when i get old i will remember my youth along with the beatles,iam 20

  • I think that the best part of this was from 0:00 to 2:20

  • 9 in this world are gay

  • @xFPSLuminescent penis its brooks

  • John Lennon's passion for music is clearly shown in this performance.

    His spirit still lives in our hearts as long as we keep listening to his music <3

  • yes this is getting old, but i just have to say ittt

    8 people are "that boy" ;) beatles are amazing :D

  • John,Paul,George,Ringo,Stu,Pet­e,Brian and George (Martin) are MY favourite Beatles :-)

  • there was NEVER SEEN a man with long hair until the Fab Four. I was there, I know. I still like my man with his hair long and Beatle boots...oh yeah.

  • John Lennon..

  • I dont give a fuck what ANYBODY says. RINGO IS THE SHIT!! favorite beatle

  • this girl is happy just loving the Beatles <333

  • It would have been awesome if Ringo jumped up for the solo and started singing. Even though John did an AMAZING job on it! But Ringo doing it would have been epic and unexpected... I need to find that time machine and tell the boys to let Ringo do that solo :P

  • @Misssingingkitty hahaha gret idea,ringo was lovely

  • How is there a dislike button for this song??

  • In the movie The Complete Beatles - 1982 - they described The Beatles as good......very good to the backdrop of this clip. It came over very well. And - of course - was spot on. I think Andy McDowell did the narration.

  • @darsie1 Hi, Roddy McDowell !

  • Thos is like the only song when ringo doesnt look happy :(

  • @revnmalak Check Out Him at Budokan

  • Dude (sorry I'm from California), this capture and post is fucking awesome. This is better than what the Beatles have man! You are the most awesome poster!

  • Wonderful! We were blessed to have them.

  • Amazing! Can't believe how beautiful this music is! Now, I'm in love with the Beatles all over again!

  • PURE MAGIC

  • @jba2323 pure magic says it all  !!!!!!!

  • "This boy would be happy just to love you"

  • ringo doesnt look too happy using those things

  • AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW..­....

  • Gosh Damn, the world did not stand a chance. They were stage and audience savvy in sixty three.

  • john john john  outstanding

  • at 1:55 to 2:03 Ringo is thinking: hmmmm whats the name of that pretty waitress from last nights restaurant? hmmm damn. It will come to me soon. Maybe George remembers.

  • @mjfan1 that is so perfect

  • John's voice is simply amazing.

  • Only once in a lifetime there could be The Beatles, never again will there ever be another Beatles.

  • John was killing on that bridge! Really miss him.

  • This is one of their best live clips. AWESOME!!!!!!!

  • 1:12 :) but he can...

  • great

  • the best of the beatles...

  • Excellent!, Perfect!

  • Every single time I hear this song, John's solo at 1:01 makes me cry.

  • 1.31 Look @ Paul Holding back the smile cos he knows Lennon was so good, Love it...

  • @Gyphia It's all real. Look at the studio version and see how the instruments are lighter.

  • @rhcp800 - you can see john struggle the note 1:13. He pushes it. All original and awesome.

  • john lennon was a special boy

  • @LeoLovesNature As in retarded? I always thought he seemed rather bright.

  • @MacWillyFortunes lol nice one

  • DUDE, it's actually quiet while they're performing.... WTF. lol

  • LOVE THEM. ♥ George looked really hot in this. :)

  • in the old dyas i used to have bearly any hair on my noggin and a zero on the sides so ya i wuz ugly

  • 1:10 lol

  • John Lennon is Risen!

  • john!(:

  • ringo looked kinda sad or something near the end...??

  • my favorite song, written by my favorite beatle :)

  • @nessykinsforever ..it was actually written by Paul but John reverted the words to make it sound better so he took the credit..and George was suppose to sing it but he was embarrassed

  • @eXtReMePuNk013 Definitely not lip-synching bro. They would have just used the record version if it was. If John would have f'ed up the middle in the studio then they would have redone it.

  • @eXtReMePuNk013 - That's actually one of the reasons I think he IS lip-syncing. John's voice cracks like that in the original record (Parlophone in England, I think Capitol in the US). The chance that his voice would crack at the exact same spot, in the same way, is slim to none. Also, can you name one other live Beatles video where their amps are not on stage with them. No amps, and no monitors, so it seems very unlikely that is an actual live performance.

  • It's identical to the recording....they are lip-syncing, and doing pretty good at it.

  • they are the reason i wanted to grow out my hair and now i look awesome

  • @srocketdude same here man!

  • @srocketdude SAME HERE! :D

  • @srocketdude same :)

  • @blueblueblee Me too! :D

  • @srocketdude I did that too!!

  • @srocketdude Same!

  • @srocketdude ya i really want a mop top too it looks cool my gf doesnt think so though

  • @srocketdude theyre the reason i DID.

  • this is like the only song they playd live that sounded like on the album
