Not really. There were a lot of bands performing trippy songs in the 60's. And they were about more than "my publicist was late". But hey, the beatles are popular so they have to be the best, right?
Mine too. A Beatlesphile once told me the story behind this song. It was his real life experience. He lived on Blue Jay Way in LA, and he was waiting for his friends who were flying in that night. It was foggy and they got lost driving and he wrote about it…..if I remember correctly, it was Eric Clapton and one of the other Beatles. Edit: so I read about it on Wikipedia. Got a few details wrong. Mainly, he was waiting for his publicist. You can read about it. GH is a true artist. He took a mundane event in his life and turned it into a masterpiece
This is one of the most psychedelic and darkest-sounding ‘Beatles songs. It feels cathartic in the feelings of loneliness and sadness. If perfectly encapsulates the symptoms of those feelings: Disorder (exemplified by the constant tempo-changes that progressively get faster), longing (which is portrayed perfectly from the melody of, “Please don’t be long”), and dread (brought on by the overall gloomy tone, with the sporadic strings, drums, and more). Crazy to think this was written on a whim from George just in regards to him waiting for a music publicist to meet him at his house on Blue Jay Way before he falls asleep.
Beatles matured with age. Never got stuck. Never hesitated to experiment. Lyrics improved. That's why they are still contemporary. Unlike many other bands and artists, we need not make concession and change our mindset half a century back while listening to Beatles. That's very rare quality.
I've always thought that one of the reasons why the Beatles' breakup was so devastating to so many people is for that reason. They never failed to produce a fantastic album (some might disagree with MMT but that's a matter of taste) and always left us anticipating what they'd come up with next.
@@mrconfusion87The same with The Doors and other bands of the era I guess. You are probably right but partly ). I had some classmates who experimented with chemicals in the 90-s, but none of them created anything even close to The Beatles. So, my verdict is chemichals are not enough, you got to be a genius. I always wondered what kind of music Bach and Beethoven would have composed if they were on chemicals )))
@@elcardio7477 ya, it's all dance & electric gizmos & repetition now. There's psychedelic music out there, but gotta search for it. People don't even know the Beatles now.
The Magical Mystery Tour has always been my favourite Beatle album and this atmospheric Harrison track is absolutely stellar-light years ahead of it's time.
One of the best Beatles songs. I think Magical Mystery Tour is very underrated. It's on the second place of my favourite Beatles albums after Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Back in the days when it was normal for a band to put out 2 or 3 albums in a single year. Nowadays youre lucky to get an album from a band/solo artist 3 years after their last!
I agree with Magical Mystery Tour, it's a really good album. Hey Bulldog is one of my fav Beatles song. For Sgt Pepper, to be honnest, after a long time I listened it again last summer, I was a fan of this album but I found that it grew old. Not a bad album but some moments sounds like beginners. Like if we can feel the young McCartney that try to build something with George Martin. I surprised myself when finaly I think that Sgt Pepper can easily be cut to save only the 8.5 songs I like. (0.5 is for A Day In The Life, McCartney's part and Ringo's drums save the song, Lennon's part is so boring) Sgt Pepper as concept album was the light of my childhood and teenage. Now as an adult, I listen sometimes one or two songs I prefer from this album and taste it like a liquor for gods.
Please, he's merely a demigod the TRUE god is Ringo Starr and what power does he use for instruments? *H I S* *M I N D* Edit: I see another believer of his in the replies, I welcome you brother or sister.
@@lindaeasley5606No. This song was created after George visited Los Angeles with Pattie and Derek Taylor (the Beatles and Beach Boys publicist) in 1967. The Peter Fonda thing was in 1966 and served as the background for She Said She Said
Recently I had a magic mushroom experience and listened to the entire Magical Mystery Tour and man, when this song came on I went into the real psychedelic experience, it was amazing and scary at the same time, it got even better when the track changed for Your Mother Should Know, this drastic shift from something dark to a happy theme in an altered state of consciousness was a wonderful experience.
Been there. The droning phrase “ please don’t be long” back in ‘67 a friend said that maybe this meant the singer was saying please don’t belong, that he wanted some one or some group to be away from him. We were really stoned but it made me listen even more closely. This song is so simple and yet so psychedelic.
Truly great music ages but it doesn't get old. I had that same experience about 40 years ago. When this song ended and your mother should know came on it felt like I went from swimming in black quicksand to sitting in the park with friends on a sunny day.
Accept it: The Beatles was, is and will be the best band forever. Great songs, great singers and ARTISTS, wonderful composers, amazing arragments, stunning melodies and harmonies... the list is long. A band who changed the music in just seven years. Proud to be fan of them ❤🌎✨🎶
They had the essential attributes of great pop artists : 1) genuine humility and compassion for the human condition. 2) great lyricists 3) elite vocal quality 4) elite ear for melody 5) good looks.
@@paulg444 I always chuckle how much thought people put into what they think The Beatles were doing and then you watch interviews and they're saying we're just goofing around and trying to make something cool. Then you watch the documentary "get back" and realize they're just writing all these songs and lyrics on the spot without really much thought whatsoever.
The cello was the stand-in here for a sitar. George came up with the instrumentation heard here as being the Western equivalent to the Indian instrumentation heard on his earlier Indian music ventures as "Love You To" and "Within You Without You." Besides the cello replacing the sitar, the Hammond organ was used to represent the sound of the tambura drone, and Ringo's drums mimicking the tabla.
You've got to love the spare tire randomly coming right at George on the floor. He just pushes it back and continues to sing and play his air piano. Classic 😊
Happy Birthday to my gorgeous George, thank you for all the wonderful music you brought us. You will always be my best Beatle. With love and hugs and god blessxxxxx
Tis why it has always remained in my top 3 fav albums of theirs. Right now its number 1 cause it has my favorite George, 2 of my fav John songs. And some incredible Paul songs too. Just super trippy and thought provoking
I do'nt care if people consider this record as a compilation;Magical Mistery Tour is one of the most incredibly exciting records ever to came out.And Blue Jay Way is an incredible George Harrison' song that most of the time people tend to forget about.The strange chord sequence/harmony and melody is typical George...a Genius!!!❤
I just turned 30 and never had a Beatles phase, had my reggae pothead phase, my Radiohead phase, my jazz phase, my ragtime phase, my blues phase, my Led Zeppelin phase, my John Mayer phase...I wasn’t ready for them. Im grateful cause just now I can really appreciate them. Wow, wtf! I think I can survive just with their discography...and my Radiohead of course.
You shall need some early smashing pumpkins phase, jeff buckley phase, PJ phase and go back to Led Zep, through a hardcore Hendrix phase. Then, maybe, and really hope for you - *crossing fingers* - , you can enjoy almost to its full extent the amazing truth the Beatles sent on us earthly mortals
Was listening to this song when I was in elementary school, still to this day the line "there's so many there too meet" comes into my head all the time.
That is trippy AF. Very psychedelic. The Beatles were absolutely amazing. They really progressed in ways never before experienced. From Skiffle to teeny pop to well, this. 👏🏻. Timeless stuff.
Come together and this song will always play in my head. I used to loathe my mother playing the Beatles older pop music and then I realized I too was a fan.
I haven’t listened this song for two years, but yesterday evening I found myself singing the chorus of it for no reason, then this morning I find this video in the homepage...wtf?
This song to me feels like desperation for someone because of how safe they make you feel, urgency to not leave them, uneasy with being by yourself and compelled to attach yourselves to them
@@maxipoutch8235 it is a sound that may suggest imagery to anyone that hears it, specially when they are under psychedelic drugs' influence. Images like colorful glowing shapes... If you watch Yellow submarine movie, you will understand: that is the psychedelic visual
@@NotQuiteFirst Also a very fine song: but inherently conservative, in that it refined existing musical tastes. "Blue Jay Way" was radical - it found new places to go, for music and the mind.
Paul: Guitar
John: cello
Ringo: drums

That's heavy, man.

Sadness, nostalgia, a weird form of happiness, and a really trippy feeling

George: hold my beer
George: hold my _LSD_
Me: Ok
Hold my *ego

Beatles Stonem This is an obscure song from the Magical Mystery Tour movie/soundtrack.
Was listening to this song when I was in elementary school, still to this day the line "there's so many there too meet" comes into my head all the time.
For me the line that sticks out is "now they've lost themselves instead"
Love Ringo’s drumming on this song
Agreed!!!!
This looks like it was recorded so recently, but is 50+ years old
That is trippy AF. Very psychedelic. The Beatles were absolutely amazing. They really progressed in ways never before experienced. From Skiffle to teeny pop to well, this. 👏🏻. Timeless stuff.
Come together and this song will always play in my head. I used to loathe my mother playing the Beatles older pop music and then I realized I too was a fan.
¡Feliz Cumpleaños George!
Feliz cumpleaños George
Radio-Beatle He estado esperando este día desde hace un año xD
Feliz cumple George
Radio-Beatle sabia que no te olvidarias del cumpleaños del beatle callado ahora sigue paul en junio siendo preciso el 18
Feliz cumpleaños George
¡Oye amigo! Creo que te conozco.
John: How high do you want your song to be?
George: *yes*
John: That's my Walrus!
I haven’t listened this song for two years, but yesterday evening I found myself singing the chorus of it for no reason, then this morning I find this video in the homepage...wtf?
i believe you!
That's some illuminati right there
Elizabeth Bell Well probably hahaha
That's called illuminati effect.dont worry Jim Jones will come to your house and give you kool-aid to calm you down

This song to me feels like desperation for someone because of how safe they make you feel, urgency to not leave them, uneasy with being by yourself and compelled to attach yourselves to them
He wrote it while waiting for his friend to come home one night.
So kinda yeah
I fucking LOVE Ringo's drumming on this song.
That's my fav ringo's drumming..
Absolutely shreds this track
Ringo isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles lol
@@prestongray8909 its pete best man
@@prestongray8909 Connor pugs pfp
I'm so glad I grew up during the 60s and 70s. The Beatles were a significant portion of the soundtrack of my life...
Interesting thing is many people whos parents weren’t even alive during the Beatles era still have had a huge impact from their music! The power!
I was born in the 60's, grew up in the 80s and 90s and they were the same to me. Beatles are the greatest human anything, ever.
John: Guitar
Paul: Bass
Ringo: Drums
George: *FLOOR*
I thought Ringo played the bicycle

Hahahah
John is on organnnn
But someone's already said this exact comment a month before you.
Why is this song so incredible? I'd CHALK it up to good songwriting!
It's terrible.
@@swirlingfudge It's actually great, objectively. Terrible is just how your inferior taste ruins it for you.
the greatness is in the experimentation, the sounds, effects, etc. Chalk it up to that!
You are...
Lydian mode!
today I still do not sleep I think I was well rewarded
THANK YOU GODDDDD THANKS JOHN LENNON AND GEORGE HARRISON
Happy Birthday George, wherever you are.
In heaven
6 feet under, eaten by worms
I am John because I too am a cellist flower in the background while my friends play
You have to practice 40 hours a day dude... no time to play
I agree :/
Or in the words of another commenter, humping it the cello.
This song and video is a prime example of psychedelic mastery. One of my favorites. ♥️
Psychedelic ? Everyone say that i don't understand
@@maxipoutch8235 it is a sound that may suggest imagery to anyone that hears it, specially when they are under psychedelic drugs' influence. Images like colorful glowing shapes... If you watch Yellow submarine movie, you will understand: that is the psychedelic visual
YESSS, THEY POSTED A VIDEO RIGHT ON GEORGE’S BIRTHDAY!!💜
i think they were planning that
Interviewer: “George how much drugs did you have when you were making this song”
George: “ *YES* “
imytch Nolan what if he was on NyQuil?
imytch Nolan 😂
Ewok 88 Sorry to burst your little bubble but George was actually off drugs by the time he recorded this.
MsAppassionata ok it was a joke. I never had a little bubble to start with so.
Ewok 88 🙄🙄🙄 Figure of speech.
I love this song , it's one of those trippy timeless songs that is the signature sound I liked the most.
absolutely love the unique psychedelic rhythm of this song
Love seeing the focus on George 🌻
THE BEATLES FOREVER! LONG LIVE THE BEATLES!
Can we talk about John's flower suit and the funny bow movements at 1:37?
I was wondering the same thing!!!
I shuffled a beatles playlist of every song and right after this one was "it won't be long".
George Harrison: A man of so many talents he ran out of instruments and had to resort to playing the floor
In "I am the walrus" he says "sitting on a corn flake, waiting for the van to come" that was George in the end of this video
Actually that line was about the end of offshore radio in1967
George Watson still a funny coincidence though.
Wait when I missed it give me a time stamp
Al the Alligator 3:27 Idk when John says it in "i am the walrus" though.
@@GeorgeF.106 Thx well I know when John says it on I Am the Walrus, though I don't know at what time it is
I just don't get how there is even a single dislike in this song? It's a master piece
But a shite master piece
@@NotQuiteFirst would like to see you write a song that matches "Blue Jay Way", or better 🙄
@@haziqkhairy actually I wrote a song called "Hotel California"
I don’t see any dislikes.
@@NotQuiteFirst Also a very fine song: but inherently conservative, in that it refined existing musical tastes. "Blue Jay Way" was radical - it found new places to go, for music and the mind.
George had so many song’s that Paul and John didn’t want to use , The breakup gave them all a chance to shine in their own way
