The Beatles - I Want You (She's So Heavy)

"I Want You (She's So Heavy)" from the album Abbey Road.

Abbey Road is the eleventh official U.K. album and seventeenth U.S. album released by The Beatles. Though work on Abbey Road began in April 1969, making it the final album recorded by the band, Let It Be was the last album released before the Beatles' dissolution in 1970. Abbey Road was released on 26 September 1969 in the United Kingdom, and 1 October 1969 in the United States. It was produced and orchestrated by George Martin for Apple Records. Geoff Emerick was engineer, Alan Parsons was assistant engineer, and Tony Banks was tape operator. It is regarded as one of The Beatles' most tightly constructed albums, although the band was barely operating as a functioning unit at the time. Rolling Stone magazine named it the 14th greatest album of all time, even though the magazine initially gave the album a mixed reception: Their November 15, 1969 issue features two very different reviews - a strongly negative one from Ed Ward, who particularly criticizes its overproduction, and an absolute rave from John Mendelsohn.

Pink Floyd released two albums before Abbey Road came out. Piper Gates of Dawn, in 1967 and Saucerful of Secrets, in 1968.

144p? WTF?

He probably means Pink Floyd's main work, like "The dark side of the Moon", "The wall" etc.

I love the part when he says "I want you, I want you so bad. I want you, I want you so badahahad its driving me mad."

[Travis Burke]

Hmm.. I thoroughly enjoy the last 3 minutes of the song honestly, and am usually disappointed with its abrupt ending.. Its definitely one of my favorite bass riffs of all time..

This song reminds me of last June... Truly some of the best times I have ever had.

I always thought The Wall was highly Beatles influenced, with the harmonies and what not...kind of an anti-Pepper to usher in the eighties. I believe Waters himself has said the Beatles and Lennon were among his prime influences

And all Beatles did was adapt the style of these two albuns to the pop paradigm/structure
