That was quite simply astonishing. This is one of my favourite Beatles songs. Your love of the band and the material is obvious. It comes across in the meticulous way you craft these tracks and performances. Incidentally, I have a very rare German vinyl album of recordings of The Beatles in the Star Club, Hamburg. Probably lifted from someone's reel to reel tape machine. Instead of singing the line "if I cry, it's not because I'm sad...Lennon sings" if I die, it's not because I'm dead...".His famous black sense of humour I assume!
From the early years. So many outstanding songs, often unnoticed because of the huge hits on those albums. Ask Me Why is a truly original composition. Good choice for a cover.
I remember as a very young lad digging through my Dad's album collection and finding Please Please Me, and this track was from that, i used to love playing that album, sadly Dad is no longer with us. But i have his love for music especially The Fab Four.... music is my life, I DJ'd for 10 years in the 80's and loved every minute of it. I was named after a Beatle too. Thanks for all the tracks you do covers of Amy, you're making an old guy (well old-ish) very happy :) x
It's sunday night and I'm worried about tomorrow. Then I watch your brand new video and I'm smiling again. It's beautiful. John used to sing this one when they weren't even famous yet in Hamburg. And next friday would be his 75th birthday. Thank you so much.
WOW!!!!! Thats bang spot on perfect amy!!!!💣💥💫 You never fail 2 amaze!!!🤓 Utter joy start 2 finish, feel good all the way with bells on n more!!!🔔🔔 Quality amy well done!!!!👍👏👏😊😃
Yes! One of my favorite Beatles songs, so incredibly underrated. As a side note, I couldn’t help but notice you sang the bridge in a much higher register than John does in the actual song, which is understandable since he hits some very low notes there. I only point this out because when I sing the song, I have the exact opposite problem on the end of the verses (I, I, I, I, should never never ever be bluuuuuuue...”) I either have to sing it lower than the original or really strain to hit the high notes hehe. Just goes to show what an incredible voice John had to be able to nail the whole thing.
I've been listening to many of your songs, you really are very good, as a fan of The Beatles, since I was 12 years old, now I'm 56, I just want to congratulate you on your professionalism !!!
I WAS BACK.WHEN THEY STARTED .THEIR SONGS SOUND CONTEMPORARY AND BRAND NEW. EACH TIME IS LIKE YOURE HEARING THEM FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME ITS SO THRILLING TO HEAR THEIR SONGS. ITS SO THRILLING TO HEAR YOUNG PEOPLE LISTENING ALONG WITH THEIR GRANDPARENTS. IT BRINGS THE GENERATIONS TOGETHER
Amy...this is one of the songs were you excel on the bass....Can't wait to hear you and The Mona Lisa Twins at the Cavern...I've been there...years ago...can't be there this time...but I know you guys will be "Fab"...to use a '60's expression !
I love this song Amy and you did it complete justice. Absolutely wonderful cover. I know this is many years old but I hope you are still involved in music. You are very talented.
Amy you are amaazing! Its been a pleasure watching you gow from a human metronome into a taleted sensitive musician. Thank you for turning so man young people on to good music.
Ya know... I think I've seen about 40 or 50 Amy Slattery videos of Beatle songs. And they are ALL EXCELLENT! All OUTSTANDING! and PERFECT musically! Ya just gotta wonder.... Has Paul McCartney ever heard of you? Has he ever seen these videos? If so, why are you not touring with him year around?
Amy, you're not doing 'covers'; you're doing archaeological reconstructions of these songs, note by note. I was astounded to hear you sing backwards on 'Rain.' At the age of 67, I'm delighted to hear a girl so devoted to the Beatles. And you do all of this with a --what should I say?-- deadpan sexiness. I love it.
I love your beautiful vocals on this one, so touching. (And it always makes me smile when you seem to go wrong and curse at around 1.55 ! ) Great work Amy.
Great job and I am a massive Beatle fan - interesting listening to a woman's voice on these songs - also your vocals on Anyone who had a heart are brilliant
I've watched a number of her covers, and here's what might seem like a funny observation. As good as this is, there's more to it: She plays and sings with such delicate finesse that it hides how precise and skilled her playing really is. If you watch the delicate chords, especially things like the 4-string D (one of Lennon's favorites), the 9ths, major sevenths, and also the inversions she uses up the neck, she is really playing these as dead-faithful to the way the Beatles played them. And she isn't struggling with longer reaches. Really nice. Beautifully done.

Ask Me Why has always been my favorite Beatles song. Beautifully done💙
i love this song, i thought you nailed it, well done!!!...so cool to see young people paying tribute to the beatles!!!
Excellent. Can't think why this cover hasn't generated more views. Well done.
You did an exceptional job on this song, I've been watching you play for years, your cuteness and your talent, what a nice combination.
My favorite early Beatles song. Love the harmonies :)
Amy is playing three different guitars, a Gretch, a Rickenbacker and a Hofner bass including drums. WOW What a gal? !
:)
I like her perfect performance.Very nice. I am Japanese.I wait for your songs.
That's what you call a huge Beatles stan.
Talented, cute, beautiful and a Beatles fan...TOP !!Thanks young lady for being there...
