The Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows (w/ lyrics)

My first video ever made.

Tomorrow Never Knows by The Beatles on their 1966 album Revolver.

"Tomorrow Never Knows" is the final track of The Beatles' 1966 studio album Revolver. It is credited as a Lennon/McCartney song, but was written primarily by John Lennon. Although it was the first song that was recorded, it was the last track on the album.

The song is significant because it contains the first example of a vocal being put through a Leslie speaker cabinet to obtain a vibrato effect (which was normally used as a loudspeaker for a Hammond organ) and the use of an ADT system (Automatic double-tracking) to double the vocal image.

"Tomorrow Never Knows" ends the Revolver album in a more experimental fashion than earlier records, which contributed to Revolver's reputation as one of the group's most influential and expressive albums.

LYRICS:
Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream
It is not dying, it is not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void
It is shining, it is shining
That you may see the meaning of within
It is being, it is being

That love is all, that love is everyone
It is knowing, it is knowing
That ignorance and hate may moum the dead
It is believing, it is believing
But listen to the color of your dream
It is not living, it is not living
Or play the game existance to the end
Of the beginning, of the beginning,
Of the beginning, of the beginning,
Of the beginning, of the beginning,
of the beginning...

5 years before this....hit songs were tunes like " Splish Splash I was takn a Bath" and " It's my party and I'll cry if I want to".....The Beatles brought music forward half a century in just half a decade....

Very underrated Beatles song, this is really their psychedelic masterpiece, could you imagine what people thought hearing this for the 1st time in 1966.  Of all the great songs on the Revolver Album, many top musicians recall that this song in particular blew them away.

I truly feel sorry that Don Draper (a character in Mad Men) could never finish listening to this awesome song. It just goes to show you that he will never truly understand the sheer brilliance of The Beatles.

Yep, Draper was definitely born in the wrong decade.
