    Ths is the most recorded song by other Artists in musical history.,over 3,200 other singers or Bands have sung this. Nic, if you like Elenore Rigby and Yesterday then you will love the lyrics of "In My Life" from Paul and "If I Fell" from John/, also, "Here, There and Everywhere" and "For No-One" and the beautiful, longer "She's Leaving Home". George Martin was their Engineer and their great supporter at Abbey Road Studios and other than songs written by George like "Here Comes The Sun" and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps". Frank Sinatra called "SOMETHING" by George "The most beautiful love song of all time" and to be watched it WITH THE OFFICIAL video showing all 4 Beatles with the love of their lives..

What Frank Sinatra REALLY said on the TV show where he was going to SING 'SOMETHING" he called it the "most beautiful song written by LENNON and McCARTNEY" !!! OOOOPS!!!!! Major FAUX PAS there, FRANK! That's what I thought when I heard him say that! I turned around to my parents and said, "OH boy, I hope GEORGE didn't HEAR that!" My mom said, "Why?" I told her, "Because GEORGE HARRISON wrote that song, by himself, and also sings lead on it." Well, that was embarrassing because it was on national prime time television in the U.S. I don't know if George ever heard about it. IF he did, I am sure he was NOT TOO HAPPY about that!

Let PAUL TELL YOU HIMSELF here... ruclips.net/video/-P3UpuGnYKA/видео.html REACT to this short about 2 and a half minute video with Paul telling how the song came to him. The white haired gentleman you will see is GEORGE MARTIN, the Beatles PRODUCER. You will hear Mr. Martin mention the name "BRIAN" which refers to BRIAN EPSTEIN, the Beatles' MANAGER. So, in the end it was recorded with Paul singing and playing acoustic guitar along with a string quartet, which is usually 2 violins, 1 viola (which is slightly larger than a violin in size and producers a little lower sound, and one cello.

    No John didn’t reject it. No George doesn’t play on it. No John wasn’t the problem. There were many problems that started after their manager died in 1967. This was 1965.
    Paul had this tune in his head. Everyone said it would sound better without them playing on it and with the string quartet.
    John made fun of it on his solo song How Do You Sleep? when he sand “The only thing you done was Yesterday, and since you’ve gone you’re just Another Day.”
    Another hard songs are I Want You (She’s So Heavy) and Revolution.

    Early Beatles songs, and other songs from that era, were short because AM radio wouldn't play songs much longer than 2 minutes. In fact, it was the Beatles who broke the mould with Hey Jude, because it was so popular that radio had to play it even though it was 7 minutes long. Also, Bob Dylan's Like A Rolling Stone was an early longer song that broke the 2-3 minute mould... and then FM became more popular and would play longer tracks.

    Paul is the only Beatle on the recording. It's him and a string quartet. He also wrote it alone, although it is credited to Lennon/McCartney, because they agreed, right from the start, that their songs would be published that way. Paul always claimed that he literally dreamed the song, and the tune was fully formed in his head when he woke up. He didn't have all the words, though, and the working title of the song was "Scrambled Eggs". Paul was so astonished that such a perfect melody could just pop into his head that he feared it might be something he'd heard elsewhere, so he went around playing it to everybody, but of course no one knew it. It was original.

    The only way we can talk your friend and to like in the Beatles and appreciating their older music is a know as a musician some of the innovative strums or thumb pics or finger pics that they were utilizing yesterday includes a very unique acoustic guitar style that isn't played very often by anybody it's because Paul McCartney's left-handed and he's using a fingers from inside to carry a baseline and nobody was playing that style back then everybody was taking a lesson so you got to understand these guys were teaching us how to put more I guess you could say music with rock and with blues they did a very good job of it too that's why people listen and the notes that they used or the notes that they actually tied together or sequenced we're beautiful notes they know how to put together a song. I don'tcare how long a song is I like long ones and short ones but these guys taught everyone how to do it anyone played a longer song all you're doing is just playing off the key notes and doing something different it's really not that big a deal I don't put it as a top-notch song if it's longer who cares I like to play music I played three instruments and I'll tell you what the Beatles make the best music even the guy that made the song YMCA was listening to the Beatles my God.

    When John and Paul first got together and started writing songs, they helped each other, making little changes where songs needed it. They decided then, as young teens, to always credit their songs as a collaborative effort. Later, when George joined the band, he was not brought into the writing credit mainly because he wasn't writing yet, and later it was too late. Even Ringo wrote a couple songs (including "Octopus's Garden") but, like George, was credited just for himself.
    Paul is very charming and pretty, but Paul was also all business. You can't call Paul 'a victim' or some kind of pushover; he was NOT that.
    There are a number of books out that set blame in various places. Also, in real time gossip pieces were written by people on the outside, many of whom did not know either the Beatles personally or the facts specifically. All through the run of the Beatles as a band there were a number of forces pressuring them.
    Seven years as a band, through their early to later twenties, world tours, 13 albums, occasional scandals (mostly stupid ones). At the end, there were money problems from the sudden death of their manager Brian Epstein in 1967 to their attempts to set up their own over-generous and naïve music company (managed by people who embezzled from them). And on top of it was how they had grown into individuals but were still strapped together as The Beatles like a 4-person conjoined entity.
    It wasn't Yoko, it wasn't John, it wasn't the difference in musical tastes, it wasn't the difficulty in showcasing George's songs. It was that it was time to move on; the 'marriage' was over. Even Ringo felt it; he quit the band for a couple of weeks during the recording of the White Album. When you add it all together, it wasn't any one thing specifically, it was all of it. It was just time. It was time to break free and handle life personally.

    Oh, child; you need to hear what was contemporary to the Beatles. ALL popular music was short, due to the 3 minute requirement to get airplay on AM radio. Until "Hey Jude" forced the breaking of that requirement, ALL songs were 'jingle'-short. If you tried to get a longer song on the radio, you had to edit it down to a radio-play version.
    Billy Joel references song editing to get airplay in his 1974 song "The Entertainer", where he sings about having to edit down "Piano Man" from to get it played.
    "I am the entertainer
    I come to do my show
    You heard my latest record
    It's been on the radio
    Ah, it took me years to write it
    They were the best years of my life
    It was a beautiful song but it ran too long
    If you're gonna have a hit you gotta make it fit
    So they cut it down to 3:05"
    "Piano Man" was available in 3 different length: 5:40 (album version) 4:30 (single version) 3:05 (SP radio edit version).

    You kids need to read more, and not this tripe online. Real books. They're still out there. The Beatles Recording Sessions covers this tune nicely, and it's all made up of the actual studio logs.
