It's for You (Beatles cover)

written 1964 by Lennon/McCartney for Cilla Black but never performed by the Beatles.

LYRICS:
I'd say some day
I'm bound to give my heart away
When I do
It's for you love, true love
Seems to be all I'm thinking of
But it's true
It's for you

They said that love was a lie
Told me that I
Never should try to find
Somebody who'd be kind
Kind to only me
So I just tell them they're right
Who wants a fight
Tell them I quite agree
Nobody'd love me
Then I look at you

And love comes love shows
I give my heart and no one knows
That I do
It's for you

This is really great my friend as usual. Your letting people here these unknown songs. Really cool FRank

thanks so much Frank for appreciation! I am fascinated by some 60's "give away" songs by Lennon/McCartney, which show their special composition style and they never recorded them (in studio quality). just like "Bad to me".... ;)

really REALLY cool!!! I love it!!!!

[frozenwhitebear]

@flyingsaucer0619 thankyouu! genuinely glad you liked it!! it's nearly incredible in these early days the fab4 wrote some pieces they never taped themselves! ;)

[psychospeakempire]

never heard this one. I love the slap echo sound you have. I'm a big fan of that. nice job. and a cool Lennon/McCartney tune that I can't believe I never heard.

@psychospeakempire thanks so much Paul!!! I couldn't believe that as well, when I discovered the piece: the Beatles obviously never taped it - belongs to some pieces they wrote for other singers to perform, like this one for Cilla. there is a whats-the-name-band who did a cover later, trying to play like the B.s would have done, but clearly it's not the same sound and atmosphere...

Excellent video !:))) 5 *).

Beautiful voice and excellent execution!

Bravo, Andreas!

With most kind regards, Olga.

[MacLenHarStar]

what a sound, Andreas, great performance!

[frozenwhitebear]

hey Bow, very thanks!!! :) John and Paul wrote that piece for Cilla Black, who was a cloakroom attendant in Cavern club, but later got a contract with Epstein by advice from John. obviously the fab never played it themselves, besides Cilla there are only renditions by rather unknown 60's cover bands. this seems to be the only amateur cover on youtube (woohoo, I love to detect rare pieces!). ;o)
