No-one teaches or replicates the Beatles as well as you, it makes my day when you post a new video. I named my daughter inspired by this song so thank you!
Mike. This is super. It’s not missed on me that you’re wearing a striped “French style” shirt for this “French” song while you are in the South of France. 👍🏻
EXCELLENT! I'm a fellow Beatle guy (72 yrs old) who was there in '64 when the Beatles hit. I promptly dumped my Fender Jag for a Rickenbacker and Gibson J160 from Manny's Music in Manhattan.
@@polytheneprentiss1534 Yeah he usually says in the start of videos "From my studio in the south of France" if you go on his website there is more info
It's just amazing how these songs like "Michelle" that the whole world knows and loves---- are so beautifully and expertly written and recorded. They were just young guys who had only been playing together for less than 10 years, and most of that time not in the recording studio. They didn't have the huge digital technology available today. All they had were guitars and their voices. How did they do it? What divine inspirational power touched them on their collective heads? It's even more amazing to me now all these years later, since I first bought their records as a teenaged fan back in the '60s and '70s.
The more you do to replicate these songs, the better they get. The effort you put in is phenomenal - thanks. Also highlights just how brilliant and sophisticated Beatles songs are. No wonder they are timeless.
Not that I’m saying anything new, but the vid is wonderfully instructive and and a great view. How fun would it be for someone to break down the background vocals in a similar way.
Excellent tutorial Mike. This is one of the most complicated Beatles songs to play in my opinion. How about doing a video on Beatles' use of the diminished chord? Whenever I can't work out a song properly, I have learned to try a diminished; and it's usually the missing link!! George seemed very fond of diminished chords, and Paul too in his solo works.
Grazie mille Mike!!!! Every time a new Beatle lesson pops up it’s like Christmas morning. This was an incredible back story. I’d love to see a couple of Paul’s bass lines broken down. As a Beatle fan since seeing them on Ed Sullivan 02/09/1964 it’s one great trip. Over the years I’ve acquired some reissue Beatle instruments: JL Rick 325, Gretsch Country Gent dual mutes, JL Peace Model J-160E, 1965 Epiphone Texan, Rick 360 12 string, Hofner 1963 reissue Bass and Rick 4001 bass. Unfortunately I had to sell Rosewood Tele and Revolution Casino. It’s so great to use the guitars you are using in the videos. Thank you so much!!!!! Your videos are such a joy to watch and love the passion you have for Beatle music.
Thank you Mike, another great lesson, I am a native Liverpudlian and thought I knew it all about the Beatles, but I am constantly impressing people with your knowledge, just finished recording This Boy from your lesson, this Michelle is going to take up a lot more of my time I think
I was born in 1950 and grew up with the Beatles and all the great groups of the times,I played my guitar with those tunes and great songs,and Mike that’s and excellent video,informative,tutorial and funny.I enjoyed it.👍
Once again Mike, absolutely fantastic lesson! One of my favorite songs from my second favorite Beatles album Rubber Soul. I’m glad I could finally find a proper lesson. There are other lessons but they don’t use a capo! I even have a Beatles songbook that tells how to play all their songs on guitar and it even says you need to capo at the 5th fret. I’m glad I’m learning a lot of Beatles songs from you, they’re my favorite band and I’m really happy that you have the same passion for them as me. Can’t wait for more lessons in the future! -Nathan Ward 17 year old guitarist and hardcore Beatles fan North Carolina, USA 🇺🇸
Great great lesson! And probably the only lesson that covers all three parts correctly. I thought there was a 12 string on this but now I hear it here you’re right. Probably isn’t one
Once again you've nailed it. A faultless and informative lesson. I can hear the lads play in my head when you're showing us how they actually put it all together. It's just brilliant. Thank you so much.
Such a great song, and a definite benefit to use if you want to impress French girls like Paul did. Awesome lesson as always, I'd love to see a lesson on the Abbey Road medley songs, Helter Skelter or Hey Bulldog if you haven't gotten around to those yet
Brilliant, thanks Mike. I don't remember Michelle played quite so 'chunka-chunka' but your reconstruction sounded dead right. Amazing how pinpoint tight their timing was. All those hours playing at the Beer Keller really paid off. They just needed a reliable drummer. Their very early recordings in Germany showed how a faltering beat threw the guys off. Love these videos and all the fun facts.
Ce que vous faites est incroyable, vous avez un immense talent. Plus la connaissance de l'histoire des chansons des Beatles. C'est un régal de vous écouter 😍
So glad to have found your videos Mike; you are the embodiment of TALENT!!! It's impossible to not feel uplifted by the stories, the music and your performance!!
That was a terrific lesson Mike! Classic Beatles for sure. How the Fab Four ever came up with all of those tunes and composed all of that music is way beyond my comprehension. However, I am sure glad that they did! Hope that you are doing well & staying safe.... 👍👍🎸🎸😉😉👏👏
Another great tutorial, Mike. Thanks a million. I'm off to practice...! I bought my first guitar from Hessy's in Stanley Street, Liverpool...A Yamaha FG 335/2 acoustic, in 1982. I've recently had it set up again by 'Harmonics music' in Crosby,, and it plays so sweet, still.
I've been listening to Michelle for years and I only just recently noticed that it wasn't really a Bbm7 chord but rather a Bb7 chord with a D-flat note on top as you said. So cool and weird! Thank you so much for fully explaining that and really delving into the origins of that chord. I didn't realize it was the same chord as in George Harrison's solo in "Till There Was You"!
Thanks again Mike. Every video is an absolute pleasure that keeps me smiling the whole way through. Michelle is a lovely song. So sweet and really shows how the Beatles experimented with sounds. Just amazing for such young men. They could have just stuck to the same sound that had already given them such success but it was just not who they were. The bass line on MIchelle is also an excellent example of Paul raising the stakes on that instrument. The bass line enhances the song significantly. Your vocals on this are also very good as usual. Kinda half way between Paul and John. Now I've just got to sit down and learn it. I'll enjoy this one!
Jeff - glad you like them and yeah - the Beatles have repeated themselves and been fabulous. Instead they re-invented themselves on every album and it was miraculously fabulous!!
Mike, I just found your channel this past weekend. Been binge watching since. Recently returned to guitar after years away and you've inspired me. Thanks
Fantastic version and lesson as always ...never knew about the Lennon Spanish guitar part. Great job and the vocals were awesome - you shouldn’t be so modest!
Always loved Michelle. Don't know why I like to compare it to Yesterday, and finding that I prefer it. It's got a feel like suede leather, somehow. Fantastic lesson as usual, I've also been playing it wrong and not quite all the way through forever. Those harmonies - wow! How is it done?! ( A bit later it struck me - the suede is on the cover of Rubber Soul.)
Great stuff-Use your wonderful tutorials to help transpose onto the uke, which right now is my main instrument right now...And I love when you do your John impression!
Great lessons Mike! How about a lesson on my favorite Beatles song from the album (showing my age here) HELP titled, I Need You? One of those songs I never grow tired of. And I love your session with Keb Mo, very cool. Thanks, Garry.
Hi, Mike! Just found you and I’m so happy! You are an amazing teacher. Since this is “my” song, I’d always wondered about its history. Now I know! How the heck did you find those facts? So cool! I loved hearing it broken down to its essences. Thanks from a very pleased Michelle! (P.S. Has anyone ever told you that you look like Warren Zevon? Be still my heart!)
Great! Absolutely spiffing! There are no video lessons like yours Mike. Plus all the stories and details you have make them unique. I'm going to get my guitar right know. Thanks! 🤩
Some great teaching as always Mike, excellent work mate! I would love to see If I Fell, I'll Be Back, I'm Happy Just To Dance With You, Another Girl, You're Going To Lose That Girl etc. I just love your way of teaching and think those would be pretty good guitar tunes to do with some great parts!
Wow, I learned the guitar to the Beatles starting way back in 1980. Early to mid Beatles were fairly easy, except for Michelle!! Thanks Mike for filling this gap for me, great stuff
Great video Mike. Well explained and now I got it. Something was missing in my version. You teach very well, and with all historic details. Congratulations.👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Hi Mike. Another great lesson thank you. Could you please do a lesson for the song you’ve got to hide your love away. It’s my favourite Beatles song and would love to know the correct chords and see you break down each section and who’s playing what as you do. 👍
In "Till There Was You" that chord at the end of the instrumental has always stumped me because I can hear a low C# in it. Now I know where it came from, thanks.
Thanks Mike another great piece of work not only for the guitar but also I think you nailed the harmonies really well. One of the best examples of their backing singing they probably ever did.
Another great lesson for another great song. You really are a treasure Mike. I always found this song funny in that the singer doesn't know how to say "I love you" in French, but he can say "These are words that go together well".
Another fantastic lesson. The most fantastic is that You're doing this with smiling face what shows that You love what You do for us. It's a pure pleasure watching Your lessons. Thx very much!
Mike... First off you sir are a great teacher... Thank you so much for short but in-depth explanation of the music produced by one of this worlds most Awesome groups ever. I think that it's safe to say people for generations and probably centuries will be listening to their music and marveling at it. I will also step out on a ledge and say that every song they cut on every album they made is as good as the one before it. Peace Out Dude, you rock.
Mike love your playing. You always talk about Georges genius. Why don't you show just how good the person Jeff Lynn call the best slide player ever and show some of those terrific slides. A good lesson would be cheerdown. Another nice slide is on Any Road. Damn, theres really so many come to think of it
MICHELLE is definitely in top 50 Beatles songs. Why ? French lyrics and John's Nina Simone verse. The "oohs and aahs" of John and George are gorgeous. The girls in my high school LOVED this song. Classic.
Bought the LP on the week it was released and learnt most of the songs with my band in our front room. Great memories which you relive for me. ...thanks, Bryn.
Love the videos, my wife and I watch them together (She's a singer/songwriter, too) and I love that you're starting to add visuals of your bass playing. One suggestion: If you don't think it would add to much time to your video, would you consider running through what's going on with the bass guitar, as well? Not a critique...I enjoy everything you're doing!
Another beautiful lesson Mike. Im one of those that can't play guitar that still enjoy your videos immensely. I look forward to your videos more than any others on you tube.
I've been trying for weeks to play that Bb7+9 chord but cant seem to get it without my ring finger muting the D string! Also my pinkie struggles to bar the B and top E string. I'm beginning to wonder if it's even possible to play it without muting the D string but the tab shows it should be played
Mike, a massive thank you for this and all your other videos. They are so detailed and clearly taught. You're so generous to provide us these for free - they must take ages to put together!
No-one teaches or replicates the Beatles as well as you, it makes my day when you post a new video. I named my daughter inspired by this song so thank you!
Mike. This is super. It’s not missed on me that you’re wearing a striped “French style” shirt for this “French” song while you are in the South of France. 👍🏻
Similar to Cary Grant’s shirt in _To Catch A Thief_ (Hitchcock 1955) which was filmed on location in the South of France.
Yeah. Classic. From Brittany I believe. Can’t recall the French name for them…
@@dashmusic9454 Une marinière.
Mike, don't forget that a lot of people thought Paul was really singing "Sunday's monkey won't play piano songs , play piano songs"!!
🤣 First class mate
That's great 🤣
LOL, oh my lord 😂
Haha! Very funny! First time I heard that. 😂
That’s brilliant
Your channel is the jackpot for Beatles fans. I feel like I know everything about them but always learn something new from your videos. Cheers !
EXCELLENT! I'm a fellow Beatle guy (72 yrs old) who was there in '64 when the Beatles hit. I promptly dumped my Fender Jag for a Rickenbacker and Gibson J160 from Manny's Music in Manhattan.
I'd say Mike is a national treasure for Beatles musicology mais il vie en France maintenant
Mike lives in France??

My favourite Beatles song. Classic skiffle
Not that I’m saying anything new, but the vid is wonderfully instructive and and a great view. How fun would it be for someone to break down the background vocals in a similar way.
As Ed Sullivan would say... Here are The Beatles...John, Paul, George, Ringo and Mike!
Love the backstories especially this one. Incredible dissection.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yup. Here, there and everywhere.
@@MPfrance Love when you do the Lennon voice 🙂
Yeah, I agree with all of what you said, Don. I'm also really impressed with the spot on Lennon impression. Genius! 🎶🤩
Love the John impression, Mike!

Hi Mike, I just love the way you teach and explain on how to play Beatles music. How do I get the tabs and chords you talk about? U DA BEST.
Just a beautiful vibrato sound on that "Beetle Bass"
Mike, even if you weren't so genial and generous, we'd still love you based on your talent and expertise, but, of course, you are.....

Steve - Thanks and I agree - the amount of fantastic compositions those lads came up with is mind boggling!!!

Brilliant lesson Mike, thank you. I echo everyone else's comments. Just brilliant.
Max - Thanks! I'm humbled by all the very kind comments.
I have never enjoyed play the TheBeatles on my Rick and acoustic until I ran across you. Your chord instructions are superb and challenging. That u
Awesome, thank you!
Great lesson; please consider a lesson on "I've Just Seen A Face', another fine song on the US Rubber Soul.
Oof, the Bb7+9 is a real hand cramper ;) Thanks for the video, Mike
Noticed that too. A real handful .... 😳🙂👀
Indeed it is!
That one isn’t so bad, IMO. It’s the dim chord all scrunched up against the capo that jams me up!

I'm never gonna be able to play the full b flat 7th raised 9th chord, but I can play the top 4 strings, which sounds almost as good.
Brilliant Mike, lovely deconstruction of Michelle and a great performance too!
What a great lesson !
Wonderful lesson, Mike. And how are you not plumping up on that delicious French bread and wine. You're lean as a whippet. You're a marvel!
