This one is very intriguing...like a mix of several different styles eras...discoey and post punky too...hints at so much...those falsetto verses are catchy but demented...John in another prime...in his whiny croon voice...coulda been a hit
Lyrics: Hey Well she used to be an artist but she threw away the key Got a job, you know, 9 to 5 And the most peculiar people hang around her everyday Bunch of slobs, you know the kind Now she's coming from nowhere keeps herself in the dark Hides her head in a scarf Got her books in a shawl Whatever happened to the woman we once knew the river's rising fast And if she hears me now trying to get a message somehow don't burn the boats till last Well, she used to be a swinger, now the rope's around her neck Such a shame, ain't that a shame And her mother was a lawyer, taught her how to read a check You know the game, who's to blame Going nowhere ah she keeps herself in the dark Hides her head in the scarf got her hooks in the shawl Whatever happened to the woman we once knew the river's rising fast And if she's listening now trying to get a message somehow don't burn the boat it's built to last Well she used to be an artist but she threw away the key Got a job, you know, 9 to 5 The most peculiar people hang around her everyday Bunch of slobs, you know the kind Going nowhere, ah she keeps herself in the dark Hides her head in the scarf got her books in the shawl Whatever happened to the woman we once knew the river's rising fast Ah, if she's listening now trying to get a message somehow and the boat is burning fast
Never heard before! Great ! Fuck! I get so angry to hear what this genius would have been doing if not that idiot destroyed it all. Now, need to get on with my own work. This gave me spirits. ❤️🙏❤️ thnx for charing.
Поймал себя на мысли, что если бы битлы продолжали совместно выпускать пластинки, как единая группа, то именно Эта песня - в отличие от большинства на сольных пластинках Леннона! - имела все шансы быть ими доработанной и записанной! 💥
I always found this demo interesting, I figured it somehow tied into the “free as a bird” line “Whatever Happened to The Life That We Once Knew” Very different songs but the line is just so similar I wonder if the demo inspired that line or Vice versa. I’ve never found any confirmation either way
The music is GREAT! I'm not hearing the words due to the mix focusing on the guiars, and even drums (a bit). Beautiful John L. So talented a driving force of this genre! Luv 🤗♥️
Hi: Here they are 👁👍❤ Good morning this is JOHN. Taking the full floor if you will, thanks to Lena. The following demo (and completed lyrics) are something that I have been trying to get Lena to work on with me for several years now. She has veered away from this one because it's a sensitive topic and alludes to what Lena perceives was a misspent youth and/or a lurid past of addiction, missed opportunities and pain. I assure you, it is and was always meant to be a testament to her STRENGTH and perseverance, and to my own determination to reach Lena. Here it is: "THAT WOMAN WE ONCE KNEW (RIVER'S RISING)" Well, she use to be a marvel But she threw away the key Got a job (You know 9 to five...)

It’s got a very 60s vibe, but the guitar is very 80s & even 90s in some parts. Kinda gives me the same vibe as Coming Up, with that very new wave playing style

Nothing will be lost ...nothing for The Sound of Your music is eternal John❤❤❤❤❤❤

early 90s late 80s vibe . ahead of its time . genius
Great song why didn’t they do this actually better than now and then
Talento inimitabile...progressione armonica emozionante..ed è solo un demo...magnifico
I never heard this before and I’m giddy as a teenager…again. It was ALWAYS exciting to hear a new Beatles’ song back in the day.
Lyrics:
Hey Well she used to be an artist but
she threw away the key
Got a job, you know, 9 to 5
And the most peculiar people hang around her everyday
Bunch of slobs, you know the kind
Now she's coming from nowhere keeps herself in the dark
Hides her head in a scarf
Got her books in a shawl
Whatever happened to the woman
we once knew the river's rising fast
And if she hears me now trying to get a message somehow don't burn the boats till last
Well, she used to be a swinger, now the rope's around her neck
Such a shame, ain't that a shame And her mother was a lawyer, taught her how to read a check
You know the game, who's to blame Going nowhere ah she keeps herself in the dark
Hides her head in the scarf got her hooks in the shawl
Whatever happened to the woman we once knew the river's rising fast And if she's listening now trying to get a message somehow don't burn the boat it's built to last
Well she used to be an artist but she threw away the key
Got a job, you know, 9 to 5 The most peculiar people hang around her everyday
Bunch of slobs, you know the kind Going nowhere, ah she keeps herself in the dark Hides her head in the scarf got her books in the shawl Whatever happened to the woman we once knew the river's rising fast Ah, if she's listening now trying to get a message somehow and the boat is burning fast
Great tune. I’d just release this commercially. It’d go to #1 instantly.
It’s too bad he never got the chance to release this, and Friend of Dorothy as well
Try to imagine this with a McCartney bass line.
@@paulbakker6765 I’m wondering why the surviving Beatles didn’t pick up on these demos.
@@DJ-bj8ku Perheps they didnt know these demo's excist
This has been overdubbed. The demo is just John and electric guitar,this just drowns out John's singing.
So much we won't hear from such a talent gone to soon
This is John at his best.
Kocham chłopa, jest po prostu genialny ❤💋🍓🌹👍🍀
I miss John.
Nice done man👍👏👌or girl
Never heard before! Great ! Fuck! I get so angry to hear what this genius would have been doing if not that idiot destroyed it all.
Now, need to get on with my own work. This gave me spirits. ❤️🙏❤️ thnx for charing.
So nice to hear from you. Great name
John is Disco... Great! Dançante pra toda vida. A Vida Continua...

He may have made both demos around the same time would be my guess
What happens when we separate peanut butter and jelly
...and it's just a demo...amazing

He might have been lost but his ♥️ woman found him and people were jealous of him... We learn from his music 🎵. listen all and ponder..❤
Sounds kind of the the Elvis Costello/New Wave artists he was listening to at this time period.
John you'r the best for ever john. I hope to faind you in heven some day...
1962 hasta 1970 hace 62 años se formó este grupo mi papá nació en ése año en que se formó
Is this legit or something that has been overdubbed upon? I have never heard full band demos from John.
great song
What happened to number six can you please show it to me again I did not receive it. Thank you.
This such a good song........ wonder why he didnt put it on his last album....
Maybe cuz he died
@@chani4551 yeahhhhhhhh
his LAST album was released in 1984, Milk And Honey im pretty sure is the title. that's four years after he unfortunately died.@glazeofficialmusic
Damn. 😢
💝💖 JOHN
This is great, but pretty sure it has fan-made overdubs, can anyone confirm? It should probably be labeled as such, if so.
"gotta get a message somehow" and the music is like 3 times louder than his voice
He didn’t add all those instruments, this was done lately by a fan. Well done tho I think
This is so good. Makes me sad .
Ahhhhhh ahhh ahhh
It’s got a very 60s vibe, but the guitar is very 80s & even 90s in some parts. Kinda gives me the same vibe as Coming Up, with that very new wave playing style
これも、AIで、ビートルズバージョンにできたらいいのにね。
The sound of the La’s right here
Sounds like a Walls and Bridges era recording
We were robbed on December 8th 1980
The beatles
Now I know where the Smiths/Morrsey got that sound
