Because from "Across the Universe" the film
I couldn't find it anywhere on here, so I decided to upload a vid myself. Enjoy ^_^

Here's some information on the creation of the original song. (thanks wikipedia, where would I be without you? lol)

Because" is a ballad written by John Lennon[1] (credited to Lennon-McCartney) and performed by The Beatles. It features a 3-part harmony vocal performance between Lennon, McCartney and George Harrison, overdubbed three times to make nine voices in all.[2] It appeared on the 1969 album Abbey Road, and is the song that precedes the extended medley that formed side two of the original LP record.

The story has been told that this song is actually "Moonlight Sonata" by Ludwig van Beethoven played backwards. While this is not precisely true, "Moonlight Sonata" certainly served as an inspiration for the song. "Yoko was playing Beethoven's 'Moonlight Sonata' on the piano ... I said, 'Can you play those chords backwards?', and wrote 'Because' around them. The lyrics speak for themselves ... No imagery, no obscure references."

  • @bribelle24 a trip

  • This is beautiful when im high of weed.

  • @Devantium It sound smoother :D But Beatles is still awesome.

  • ima beatles fan since 1996 but i think this cover is better

  • i wonder what this movie would like if i was stoned

  • shitty girly voices. unecessary drama at some parts. if they want to change the song, do some real changes, not those helpless stress on the melody

  • @abhikoolblue It's actually not, some include John Lennon

  • the movie made me wanna get high :P

  • a musical with only Beatles' songs....EPIC MUSICAL

  • I have been around since the Beatles arrived in the US...and I assure you...this was done in a way that completes it all.
