A Hard Days Night the movie. I think as good as their records and concerts were this movie was the most influential thing they ever produced. The Concept and meaning of being in a rock group was forged here. All those bands formed in the mid sixties and beyond were conceived because of this movie. Jerry Garcia said he formed the Grateful Dead the day after he saw the movie Jefferson airplane too. Velvet underground and Dylan went electric etc. the effect in Britain was even more pronounced. It’s a really good movie and you’ll smile the entire time. It documents the Beatles on the cusp of unprecedented popularity and greatness and you can feel the shifting culture and a new generational aesthetic. Highly recommended, if it were up to me I would have had you watch the movie before the records.
Yes great idea to view AHDN however those growing early leather years are more intriguing to me ! I would like to view your reactions to their trial with Decca and a good workout with those BBC tracks ! For instance :- Soldier Of Love , Sure To Fall , Some Other Guy , Young Blood and of course the first and only Lennon & McCartney song I'll Be On My Way. 👁️😹🤡🔥
it's utterly addicting. i've been spinning it NON STOP since I did this video. It's annoying the hell out of my girl LOL i'm not even kiddin either. they must have literally put ear drugs in this song because I can't get enough. I think I will listen to it again now after this long winded comment. Thank you for the opportunity to do so. XD
I have forgotten how much I like this song! And now that I'm older, I'm astonished to see in how many different ways it really seems before its time. What a great song.
I remember, in an interview, John Lennon saying, paraphrasing, when a Beatles member wrote a song and presented it to the group, it became a Beatles song, not their song, and it could turn out totally different once everyone had their say.
@@L33Reacts after i commented i checked and saw your reaction. that was the correct audio version which was made into a video using old studio footage of the recording session. cool stuff.
Ringo was playing so free and with blasting energy-nothing held back and yet still not stepping all over the song. This song is a euphoric performance and just shows the breadth of the Beatles range.I have been hoping you'd react to this song for months now. Thanks.
Many reaction videos are entertaining because you watch someone who doesn’t understand the significance of the track. But you are wise beyond your years because can tell that you really get it. Bravo
I've always happened to think this song is GREAT! Really great. Profound. And yes, utterly trippy: we go up; we peak; we come down. Ouch. And at the end, when it turns into "too much too much...", it's just exactly what we do: we take insight/inspiration/ enlightenment and turn it into a mechanical routine, the soul having been removed. Amazing! And Yellow Submarine is a movie to watch MANY times.
" With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue, the only thing I ever get from you is Sorrow" Sorrow, was released by The McCoys in the UK in 1965 then in 1966 by The Merseys, and in 1973 by David Bowie, it was the only single released in the UK from his Pin Ups covers album, reaching No. 3 on the UK Singles Chart, and staying in the charts for 15 weeks. It was also Bowie's first number-one hit single in Australia, which topped the charts for two weeks in February 1974.
they love the song "Yellow Submarine" and have watched clips of the movie many times now, but we haven't sat down as a family and watched the whole thing yet. I really want to.
That's a great idea!! React with the family reacting to the movie. Holidays are coming up. Great reaction, as always. You need to react to,This Boy. On Ed Sullivan. Early stuff. I've been a fan since. 🙂👊@L33Reacts
Peak psychedelia from The Beatles. One of my all time favourites! Blew my head off when I went to see the film (with my kid sister). The Yellow Submarine soundtrack is severely underrated, unsurprisingly, since it's only half an album... (Bit late to this one - life got in the way)
I’ll second that. Lee, do yourself a favor and listen that one. Hillage is his own soul but his cover shows his appreciation for George’s artistry in particular.
This is my favorite era as well. They are at a peak (lol) that is basically unobtainable ever again by any band because times have changed. Everything back then was the perfect environment for this band to grow in and succeed in
@@L33Reacts Some might say The Beatles created the psychedelic environment, certainly here in the UK, maybe the same way as The Sex Pistols and the punk era 👍
Wow, Coquina, it has been a long time since I've heard this, way too long. Thanks for sharing this gem with us .Yay! Great rection, Lee. There will never be a band to compare to the Beatles. So glad to relive their greatness here. Blessings all.
As a drummer myself (still have and use the kit in my avatar from 1972), I always loved this song and the way they added the beats to this song. It's not just the drums on the 2s and 4s, but it sounds like they picked up anything that would make a sound for those beats. It's strong and it works. They even added vocal "grunts" into the beats. Just a classic Beatles song.
Hi there 😊 George Harrison had a few gems by the period of M.M. Tour/ Yellow Submarine/White album. You can also listen next to "only a Northern song " or "Old brown shoe " to be astonished. He had 1/2 songs per album but he really nailed each one of them. It was he's way to say "hey I can write great songs also ". Amazing everybody. 😊 take care ✌peace
To think that he was, on paper, the third Beatles. There are countless covers of his songs including: Sonic Youth, Flaming Lips, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Elvis Presley, Marlene Kuntz, Prince, Tom Petty, Dave Ghrol, Perry Farrel, Frank Sinatra, Brian May and more
The fact that you can spot adulterated versions of old Beatles songs is a sign that your ear is catching on, Lee. I've always loved this song. The fact that it was relegated to the 'Yellow Submarine' album was a crime, and an insult to George. It could have been on 'Magical Mystery Tour' instead of 'Blue Jay Way', but then it would have upstaged Paul.
So Glad you got this, a wonderfully trippy tune. Steve Hillage did an excellent version too, please check out his live cover. Taking a number of trips sure changed my life, I did over do it & had to lay off for a while, then in the early 2000's I had one called a Golden Ganesh, it came to my mind just in time to heal a huge rift, & has inspired a lot of my early art. I am still a hippy at 73.
Great deep track for them with George piloting this psychedelic classic. You don't see this reacted to much, nice job! Beatles are always #1, more Beatles please, enjoy. 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎸🎤🎹🎶🔥
I remember hearing this song when I watched Yellow Submarine years ago. I fell in love with it. This song is much better than it's reputation as a "throwaway" song.
Yes! It does remind me of Tomorrow never knows and a bit like Northern Song too. And yes I adore Ringo and everything he does. Whee! And I love your smile when you are hearing them.
In the 1990's, the Yellow Submarine movie had its first DVD release. All of the music in the movie was remixed for 5.1 sound and they put out a stereo version of these remixes on a CD/LP called The Yellow Submarine Songtrack. Of those remixes, It's All Too Much is the best and worth a listen.
I so much appreciate your expanding on the psychedelic nature and sensibility of the song and the Beatles in this and other periods. I, like you, feel that the psychedelic experience is essential to the human experience. My heart goes out to people who deny themselves this avenue for growth. A single experience can stay with you for your lifetime, and I believe in a very positive way. It must be done with reverence, and with resolve. I respect the fact that you say what you actually think. I feel validated for following you.
The band, WILCO, *brilliantly* turned that organ line into the main guitar riff for their song, "I Got You (At the End of the Century)". ;-) - on their album, "Being There".
Definitely one of the most underrated Beatles tracks. Back in 1985 a fellow band mate of mine used to lay shit on The Beatles. Of course he put down all the early stuff. So one day I sat down and played him It's all too much. Oh got home stoned first, dropped the needle on the record and hey presto he changed his attitude Instantly. He went out and brought the collection over time.
Loved your reaction, Leigh. As a 72-year-old lifetime Beatle fan, I learned so much more about the song tonight from you. And I hadn't heard it since the mix had been upgraded by Giles Martin. What a delightful experience! 😁
Steve Hillage does a pretty tight take on this tune on his 'L' album. The record's produced by Todd Rundgren, and he brought three of his Utopia bandmates to join in the fun. Recommended listening.
After watching the wonderful mind melting film that is Yellow Submarine, you get this George penned masterpiece as the crescendo at the end.... the happy ending.....the perfect cherry on top.
Nice pick - thanks! I saw Yellow Submarine at the theatre a couple of years ago, and that night had a wonderfully colorful dream! I guess our dreams reflect what we feed in.
George came to San Francisco hoping to see the psychedelic hippie experience at its origin. But, by the time he got there, the original hippies had all left and the area had been gone to homeless teenyboppers who came to find the same thing. Heroin had come into the scene by that point. The Haight Ashbury community had a funeral for the death of the hippie in January of 1967 so by the time the "Summer of Love" arrived, they were mostly gone. That's what George found and it freaked him out. It caused him to swear off acid.
It's incredible that this song got passed over in 1967-it could have been put (maybe) on Sgt. Pepper, or the Magical Mystery Tour LP which followed in that same year. But this was the fate of many of George Harrison's songs-often overlooked by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, who were the dominant songwriters in the group. It's buried on this "odds and ends" album "Yellow Submarine", which is a real shame. It's a great song. The feedback at the beginning is really startling, to say the least, especially for its time. Thanks for doing this reaction; I'm really looking forward to watching this one!
The "Yellow Submarine" is a hoot. Full of puns, a Sea of Puns. "I have a hole in me pocket." or "Are you Bluish? You don't look Bluish." The artwork is amazing. It is totally trippy.
Hey, if you're thinking about screening a movie, it's gotta "A Hard Day's Night". It's not just a great Beatles movie; It's a great movie period, Go ahead and look it up, It's a complete surreal masterpiece. And it is so funny. And they play 7 new songs. If you are a Beatles fan, this movie is a necessity
George's under utilisation is definitely one of the issues that led to the split. That is very evident when he poured all his pent up songs into All Things Must Pass. They were just too great to contain all that talent without something eventually giving. As for acid, those were the days!
"With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue", heard a couple of times before the fade, was a line from 'Sorrow' by the Pretty Things, I believe, which also appears on Bowie's 'Pinups' album. Love the feedback off the top and the overall vibe and sentiments. Very much an artifact of its time. Worthy of repeated listenings. 'All You Need Is Love' should absolutely be the original worldwide broadcast version. Anything else from this soundtrack I'd opt for a clip from the movie itself. Definitely watch the movie too. I recall playing 'Lucy In the Sky...' for my kids in the mid-90s shortly after they'd seen the VHS and looked up to see my son enacting the movements from the animation. Enjoy. ✌🏼😊🎶❤️🍁❤️✨️🕊
What Beatles track should we tackle next? Or maybe an album? Maybe I should I watch a movie... so many things to choose from. What do you think?
A Hard Days Night the movie. I think as good as their records and concerts were this movie was the most influential thing they ever produced. The Concept and meaning of being in a rock group was forged here. All those bands formed in the mid sixties and beyond were conceived because of this movie. Jerry Garcia said he formed the Grateful Dead the day after he saw the movie Jefferson airplane too. Velvet underground and Dylan went electric etc. the effect in Britain was even more pronounced. It’s a really good movie and you’ll smile the entire time.

The May 1966 single "Paperback Writer" and it's equally good b-side "Rain". One of the most innovative and influential singles of the 1960s.
@@johnbyrnes7912 I don’t know much about the leather Beatles so I’m also intrigued
@@goonbelly5841 I had that 45.
Probably the most underrated song by The Beatles. It's a hidden gem!!!
Hey bulldog from the same soundtrack as well
Definitely the most underrated, it's so good. Eargasm
it's utterly addicting. i've been spinning it NON STOP since I did this video. It's annoying the hell out of my girl LOL i'm not even kiddin either. they must have literally put ear drugs in this song because I can't get enough. I think I will listen to it again now after this long winded comment. Thank you for the opportunity to do so. XD
They put so much into the arrangement and not much is said about the song, even by the Beatles. Its my favorite track on the Yellow Submarine album.
It definitely is.
Banger. I dismiss anyone who claims Ringo wasn't a great drummer.
Ringo’s drumming was exactly what each song required.
And there you have it. One of the greatest songs they ever did. And THE most underrated.
I have forgotten how much I like this song! And now that I'm older, I'm astonished to see in how many different ways it really seems before its time. What a great song.
I love, love, LOVE this song. I am so glad you loved it too ❤
The Beatles did tripping better than most.
Yellow Submarine is one of the trippiest films you'll ever see. Your kids will love it too. Your enthusiasm for the music is a treat to hear.
For me, this song was peak Beatles psychedelic rock. George freakin' nailed it.
He really did! This shit is such a vibe as the kids say Lol
@@L33ReactsGeorge had accumulated around 40 songs by the time they broke up. Half of those songs ended up on his double album All Things Must Pass
I remember, in an interview, John Lennon saying, paraphrasing, when a Beatles member wrote a song and presented it to the group, it became a Beatles song, not their song, and it could turn out totally different once everyone had their say.

"Only a Northern Song" and "Blue Jay Way" (by Harrison) are probably the most Beatles phsichedelic songs ever!
I love when there’s a fog upon LA. I spend the rest of the day thinking of blue jay way.
Blue Jay Way ❤💣🇮🇹
And there’s a reference to Sorrow by The Merseys and covered by Bowie. ‘With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue’. Check it out.
And in Young Americans, Bowie's backing singers sing "I heard the news today, oh boy", paraphrasing The Beatles "A Day in the Life"
Definitely very underrated song.
Always loved this song !
The odd noise you couldn’t identify is a bass harmonica; they also use it on “Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite” & “Fool On The Hill”
such an odd sound. it took me off guard lol
I always thought this would have been the song to play at the end of a Beatles concert around the late sixties, if only…What a trip !
One of my favorite songs!
Dude I see why. This is absolutely one of their best that was kinda lost to time for some reason lol
You really need to check out Everybody’s Got Something To Hide Except For Me and My Monkey!
I was going to suggest that one. Great song! Kudos.
YES!
And Savoy Truffle
ok once i plow through all of my requests for them I will do it
The Yellow Submarine movie is a lot of fun, good animation, definitely worth watching.

Coolest song from yellow submarine. Love George's gorgeous psychedelic guitar.

I requested that song formally with a PayPal donation of $15 on August 12th so he should get to it sooner or later!

@debjorgo yep. Thanks for the info. The Merseys covered, and had a UK hit with it in '66.
As kids, we used to chant "We all live in a Yellow Submarine, a bubble gum machine, a rotten tangerine" on the bus each day!
