Thanks goes to Bill Schnee, who had the presence of mind to run off a copy of the song with John's guide vocal before John's vocal needed to be erased so they could use the track to complete Ringo's version of the song. Bill was just 25 yrs old at the time.
Glad he gave this one to Ringo. He rocks it. Plus with people constantly undermining his drumming abilities in those days he really needed to make that kinda statement. I still get a kick out of this drunken John version though lol.
This is John Lennon Klaus Voorman on bass and Ringo rehearsing. This is part of the actual session tapes. This is before George arrived. I think Billy Preston put his stuff on later.
John always said he could never release this as his own song…..he would be seen as big headed……but he knew Ringo could carry it off without being seen as big headed.
hi bro, i'm a big fan from Brazil... can u please give to me and all others lennon's fans a google drive link or something like this with all the demos? I would be grateful.
You're reading something into the lyrics that isn't there. Song is about himself. And John was not always mocking Paul that's kooky talk as Kramer would say.
“Hold on Yoko Yoko hold on it’s gonna be alright” “Oh Yoko oh Yoko my love will turn u on” “Standing on the corner just me and Yoko Ono”. John never mentioned Yoko. 😂
This song is not one of John's best but it proves how a song can sound so different depending on the vocalist i.e. John or Ringo or Ringo and Joe Cocker
John wrote it for Ringo, with Ringo in mind. In that sense, it's a fine song. He also wrote Nobody Told Me, for Ringo, but was killed before that could happen.
The melody has a passing resemblance to Mean Mister Mustard.
this one is actually from ringo.
@@alittleguy8114 Apparently John wrote it and gave it to Ringo because he thought it would it sound too conceited coming from him
@@samuelmather2469 my God, then, has Ringo made any good song in his solo career with no help?
Truth
@@alittleguy8114 Yes, Octopuss' Garden
Oh, He's GREAT ALRIGHT 🎹🎹💕💕👍👍🎶🎶

Lennons the greatest
Wow never new this existed
Indeed he was.
Canción que le dió a Ringo Starr a interpretar. Fue un gran éxito.
Love it!

I'm working on that ;)
@@zzzzu399 tnk u :)
Excellent Version! Who's on it??????
Ringo on drums, John on vocals/piano (probably). There's a better version on 'John Lennon Anthology'. It was written for Ringo in mind.
🙆♀️
Música foi feita pra o Ringo cantar mesmo...😅
He tried to sound like Paul in the middle hahaha
Billy Shears
¿Arctic Monkeys y John Lennon?
Dejame decirte que tienes un gusto exquisito de musica.
I'm glad he change the bridge to the Boogaloo part because this is horrible haha
2:08 is C5?
Yea
I think B1 ll y
John is mocking Paul! "(ºJº)"
Why do you think he’s mocking Paul, I don’t see it. What am I missing?
@@jwt208 Because John is ALWAYS mocking Paul. And because they love each other. This song is a joke, play words.
@@LuizGonzagaArcadas OK what online and read the lyrics. I get it now.
0:21 I hear Paul on that line and later on.
You're reading something into the lyrics that isn't there. Song is about himself. And John was not always mocking Paul that's kooky talk as Kramer would say.
I’ve been a die hard since I was a kid & goodness. It’s genuinely annoying he always mentions Yoko by name every chance he gets😭😂
“Hold on Yoko Yoko hold on it’s gonna be alright” “Oh Yoko oh Yoko my love will turn u on” “Standing on the corner just me and Yoko Ono”. John never mentioned Yoko. 😂
then u must not be a die hard, cause if u were u would know how much she inspired him and how many good songs we got because of her
I love Yoko because John loved her.
This song is not one of John's best but it proves how a song can sound so different depending on the vocalist i.e. John or Ringo or Ringo and Joe Cocker
He wrote it for Ringo.
Too few realize that in this song that John Lennon was mocking William Shears Campbell (aka Paul II).
🤦🏻♂️
Exactly.
@@alittleguy8114 John wrote it and felt he couldn't sing it straight faced, so had Ringo do it.
@@alittleguy8114 John Lennon wrote it and Ringo recorded it. Is that too complex for you? But, the song was about Faul (aka Paul II).
Again reading something into the lyrics that isn't there. Not about Paul or Faul. So silly
Not one of John's best songs (:>(
but it is one of ringos
John wrote it for Ringo, with Ringo in mind. In that sense, it's a fine song. He also wrote Nobody Told Me, for Ringo, but was killed before that could happen.
@@waynej2608 I know this. It's still not one of his best songs, sorry.
@@waynej2608 its one of ringos best songs
He wrote it for Ringo. Also this is not the final version. He just was making fun.
Ringo version better than this version
This is just a demo
I didn't like it
