      It's not hard to believe it only took 22days if you consider the massive number of people working for them and the low quality of songs like this. There's hardly a pro band in America who couldn't do at least as well as produce something as good (bad) as this song. The song's only value is stylistically. Otherwise, there is nothing above average about the lyrics, arrangement, or vocals.

    What a contribution from Billy Preston on this song. I think his playing really gave this song its signature sound. His presence, as requested by George Harrison, definitely eased the tension during those recording sessions. I believe John and George wanted Billy to join the band but Paul was opposed and said “it’s bad enough with 4.” In a demo of this, after the last chorus, John yells “take it, Bill!” Billy would play on the solo records of John, George and Ringo. He was an incredible musician and well respected by the popular artists. He wrote You Are So Beautiful even though Joe Cocker’s version is probably the most popular.

    It was a full concert on the rooftop. This is from the Wikipedia article:
    On 30 January 1969, the Beatles performed an unannounced concert from the rooftop of their Apple Corps headquarters at 3 Savile Row, within central London's office and fashion district. Joined by keyboardist Billy Preston, the band played a 42-minute set before the Metropolitan Police asked them to reduce the volume. It was the final public performance of their career.
    Although the concert was conceived just days before, the Beatles were planning a return to live performances throughout the early sessions for their album Let It Be (1970). They performed nine takes of five songs as crowds of onlookers, many of whom were on their lunch break, congregated in the streets and on the roofs of local buildings. The concert ended with the conclusion of "Get Back", with John Lennon joking, "I'd like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves and I hope we've passed the audition."
    Footage from the performance was used in the 1970 documentary film Let It Be and the 2021 documentary series The Beatles: Get Back. The first performance of "I've Got a Feeling" and single takes of "One After 909" and "Dig a Pony" were also featured on the accompanying album. On 28 January 2022, the audio of the full rooftop performance was released to streaming services under the title Get Back - The Rooftop Performance.
    In February 2022, Disney released the entire concert sequence as presented in The Beatles: Get Back in IMAX as The Beatles: Get Back - The Rooftop Concert. It had a limited theatrical engagement.

    I've watched a few of your reaction videos about the Beatles and it's amusing that 30 seconds into each clip your pause the video and say that "this is my favorite Beatles song".
    I'm 70 and grew up listening to the Beatles at every opportunity and I just love their work. Some people today struggle to understand the impact they had (and are still having) but you had to be alive in the late 50s, early 60s to know the kind of music that was being played at that time. Yes, there were some rockers but you also had Sinatra, Como, Belafonte and others who were crooners. Suddenly The Beatles were there with their very different sound that captured the world.
    There will never be another band to influence music as much as The Beatles. Always was and always will be number 1.

    Billy Preston's keyboards are so integral to the vibe of this song. The Beatles first met him very early in their career, in Hamburg, and kept up a friendship through the 1960s. He happened to be in London during the Let It Be sessions and was invited to join them in the studio and his contribution became so important to those sessions, and to them getting their groove back after being somewhat disheartened at that point in their working and personal relationship. Truly one of the "fifth" Beatles (Brian Epstein, George Martin, Stu Sutcliffe, Pete Best....)

    Oh maaaan! This is such a GREAT song. Loved it all my life! Imagine a 5 year old walking around the house singing these rather adult lyrics! So much nostalgia for me with this one. Well, many of their songs actually, but definitely this particular gem! Great reaction.

    I'm still stunned by Lennon's murder. I was 20 now 61 and remember the day. That day I came to understand my aunt's reaction to the death of Elvis. A part of you dies as well.
    I still can't fathom that he has now been gone longer than he was here.

    Yes, John Lennon wrote this beautiful song expressing his love of Yoko Ono.

    They surprised the whole town by playing on the rooftop without advertising. I remember hearing about it at the time but I did see it for many years.

    The way his voice goes from the gruff, masculine yet emotional shouting of "dont let me down" to the vulnerable, adolescent and high-pitched "pleeee-eeaseee" at the end. Man, Lennon was the best.
    Im just finding your channel, so if you have then my bad, but if you haven't done his solo stuff, please do. Mother, God, How Do You Sleep (the original diss track), Oh My Love, Meat City, Mind Games, Beautiful Boy, I Know (I Know)... I could go on and on.

    Another song John dedicated to his deep love for Yoko was on his album "Double Fantasy"...his final recorded offering before he was gunned down by Mark Chapman. The song is entitled "Woman"...a beautiful piece....❤️

      I still own my Rolling Stone magazine copy with John Lennon and Yoko Ono on the cover in their famous photo that was actually taken the same day he was murdered Dec 8, 1980

      That day was one of disbelief for millions of fans. I recall watching the announcement of his death that evening & turning to my boyfriend & saying, "It's over, things will never be the same again." It was & they haven't been. It was like he had written in a verse of one of his songs..the dream is over...:(

    There has never been a musical group in history with the magnetic pull of the Beatles. They were a vortex channelling the unfettered power of the gods. Their impact on popular music is immeasurable. They pulled crowds so big around their touring hotels, the traffic had to be diverted. Elvis never did that. I remember watching a replay of a live recording of Hey Jude that ran past the allocated time just before the national news. Ordinary, the show would be cut off, right? No, not for the Beatles. A new world entered the lexicon: Beatlemania. Never before, and never again.
