@Totegalo It's impossible to chose only one favorite album or song from them ! Mine are the Rubber Soul, Hard Day's Night, and the White. And maybe Sgt Peppers too.
This song is so awesome!It's extremely catchy and I love the part when John says "I send you flowers but you don't care,you never seem to see me standing there".
@katex1234 Actually, it is. It's part of the famous 15 song audition session rejected by Decca records. It's these demo recordings that impressed George Martin enough to offer them a "test" recording session for EMI. The rest is history. Cheers ps. this is one of only three of the 15 tunes that were Lennon/McCartney songs, though they never recorded it for an official album
Hey Johnny you did it, you took them to the top; What you did is still reflected today,I dont know but I hope someday, somewhere a few kids get together and change things like it can be done All you I gotta do is thank you boy,thankyou boy,
First of all just let me say that i love this stuff.. The humble beginnings of the biggest group ever. the Beatles.. I love the raw sound rather that the polished one. and here in Silver Beatles. it is just that. To see that the Beatles started from the bottom and worked their way up to the top. It just humanizes them for me rather than the usual larger that life image they had. Iconic../ THe boys all dressed in leather is so sexy. John looks too sexy in those leather pants. the rebel boy luv U.
@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME dude... why do you send a message to yourself? just asking... P.S: In my school there are still people wearing leather jackets- cools and fags- but it's not what it was in the sixties... Back then it was pretty shocking, nowadays everyone can buy one, it's not cool or outstanding anymore... There you have it, I'm getting depressed.
I love this song, man. Well, I love all of theirs but this is just one of those hidden gems. I did a cover of it and it'd be cool to hear some feedback from you nice people
@Zcecchine54 Obviously John Lennon. Of course, you didn't mean to forget him, did you? And Richard Starkey isn't in the Silver Beatles because they have Pete Best. Pete isn't alive because he died from a brain aneurism I believe which is why The Beatles needed Ringo.
@iluvafalloutboy No, they replaced Ringo with Best because Ringo was a better drummer. He was more successful and famous than them at the time. Best is still alive.
@1GoodRiddance According to John, "Pete was a good drummer, but Ringo was a good Beatle." If you read Allan Williams book "The man who gave the Beatles Away" Tommy Moore was an excellent drummer for the Beatles but his wife forced him to choose between the group or getting a regular job to support her and the kids.
@1GoodRiddance Ringo was not more famous than the Beatles in 1962, both The Beatles and Rory & The Hurricanes (the group Ringo played drums for) were not nationally known bands, and it was The Beatles who topped the fan voted merseybeat poll that year. Best's popularity back then is confirmed as when it was announced the Beatles signed to EMI it was a photo of Best alone that graced the front cover of Merseybeat.
The long time rumor about this song is that this is written about John's longtime girlfriend and then mistress Patricia Inder who dated John from the time this song was written right up Julian was born. Nowhere Boy kind of implies that this song was about John's mother but in reality it wasn't
@GeorgeHarrisonLuver1 That's what they called themselves after they were the Quarrymen, and before they dropped the "Silver" from their name. I saw them in Hamburg, Germany in 1962 when I was in the U.S.Navy, then again in 1963 in Liverpool. Oh...and...my last name is McCartney. M.P. And...I'm left handed. But, I play the guitar right handed. Anyway, hope this kinda clears the name thing up for you some. Take it easy. :D)
hey coming at ya with original songs every one on my channel i have writen myself respectthelogic,,,,,,,lennon i solute you,,,,,,paul i solute you,,,,,,,,gorge i solute you and ringo i solute you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,wow never new this to be first lennon tune cheers ya learn something new every day,,,,,,,,,,,,,,respectthelogic,,,,,,,,,,
for anyone who doesn't like this song, can you write a song as a teenager with no background in music or knowledge really and have it still around and famous 50 years later?-didnt think so
@OropherThranduil In my opinion Paul was better melodically but John songgs had more feeling, and this one comparing with My little girl is a great example, i will take this one.
written in 1957, Hello Little Girl was the first original composition by John Lennon. The Beatles recorded a version of it during their unsuccessful audition for Decca Records on 1 January 1962. Also, a bootleg, was recorded in early 1960 with Lennon, McCartney and Harrison on guitar, and Stuart Sutcliffe on bass. While the sound quality is inevitably inferior to the Decca version, and certain lines were only half-written
@dreadjonh lol, yeah, watch the film backbeat about the beatles early days, mostly about stuart sutcliffe but pete best is in it aswell.. pete best went into manic depression when he was sacked, but you can't really blame the bloke, could of toured the world and been in the most successful band of all time, but ended up staying in liverpool as a librarian, God, just imagine how shit he must of felt!
i think att he latest they would have sacked best in late 64, 65,
when they're music became more complex in rhythms and timings and chord changes, that's the reason why the byrds drummer quit in 66 when the byrds went psychedelic, that's what would have happened to best.
@seafortha Best pulled himself back though, made sum decent yet underrated music, got financial rewarded for his early work in the Beatles. And from what I have heard he is now a very nice and contented man, without any bitterness or what you would have expected.
@NarutoEX100 Hating Nowhere Boy wouldn't necessarily be misplaced. While it was a nice movie, it was filled with inaccuracies. It's good watch for what it's worth...but hating the Beatles and John Lennon himself? The sentence is death...right after Chapman, lol. ;)
The Beatles' version of the song can be found on Anthology 1 with John Lennon as the lead singer. A cover of this song appears in the 2010 film "Nowhere Boy" and on the film soundtrack
This was the first song written by John Lennon, when he was 18. It was recorded by another English goup, called the Fourmost in 1963, and actually made it to # 9 on the charts in the UK.

not really a good song. i've even heard that most of it was taken from other songs. but it's still amazing how we can hear the first step towards one of the greatest songwriting careers in the history of popular music as easily as clicking a few keys. for that it gets a "thumbs-up"
The song's not that great, but since I had long wanted to hear Lennon's first song I still enjoyed watching the video. That doesn't necessarily mean I loved the song itself, but more the idea of what the audio track on this video is, and how long ago the recording was made. Plus, the pictures were cool. For all that it gets a "thumbs-up".
@theselector thats because it wasn't exactly the beatles. Ringo Star wasn't in the band yet, and there were other people in it that were not in The Beatles we know today. This band was named The Silver Beatles

Great little tune. Sounds fresh and optimistic still today. It certainly was a sign of things to come. Defenitely the best version of the song.

@theselector thats because it wasn't exactly the beatles. Ringo Star wasn't in the band yet, and there were other people in it that were not in The Beatles we know today. This band was named The Silver Beatles

even before the official start of the beatles, they still had amazing choruses and harmonies and whatnot.

@SHEMEANzEVRyTHANG2ME No one wears leather jackets in high school anymore, and if they do they're losers, its not the 50s and 60s anymore.
