The Beatles - Norwegian Wood 国分あきこ on Sitar and Vocal 原田康生 on Tabla 島田未来 on Esraj (Dilruba) • Goodbye 2020 Hello 202... 内川浩志 on Guitar and Vocal @Hakone Tent / Aug 24, 2019
George played the sitar on Norwegian Wood, but it was a Lennon McCartney song. And not a very nice one, either. Sounds great on these instruments, though.
Great music and I love to see this- women and men sitting together on the rug, playing their instruments and enjoying the classic song. I like to sit on the floor and play this song on my guitar too. 😊
Man, I love the sitting on the floor, rug, I'm having flashbacks to the 60s. Seriously, this has a hippie vibe of that era that I so miss. You have no idea. You had to be there.
I believe you, as I was there, Incarnated In the Year of the Ignited FireHorse, '66. I am Ion, like a Lion In Zion, Tripping Eternally In Cosmic Consciousness
GROSS: What did you think of the solo he played on "Norwegian Wood"? SHANKAR: I never heard it before. And it was only much later on, my nephew and nieces, they played it for me and I thought it was terrible, in the sense - in the sound that was produced on the sitar. The song was nice. I liked the song very much but it was a peculiar sound
Aside from George's use of the sitar, John Lennon wrote the song which has a deeper meaning. "I once had a girl or should I say, she once had me"... Therein lies the pretext. John had a gift for language as he changed the title from "Knowing She Would" to "Norwegian Wood" cleverly circumventing the sensors. John was always one move ahead of everyone. So misunderstood as are most gifted artists.
At this stage, from right to left, a sitar, an esraj, a guitar, and a set of tabla are being played. The drone sound is played by a machine, in this case, an app.
Awesome cover! Although I do have to say the singer couldn't articulate the pronunciations properly, maybe due to him being a native speaker (it's all good). Loved all the band members!
George Harrison looking down from heaven says "this is good the Norwegian Wood
Oh! What a comment! Thank you so much.
Maybe looking up from another place

Reminds me of beautiful musical jams i had when i was young. 😊 Lovely - George & John are smiling.
Knowing the spiritual persuasion of Harrison, this rendition of his great song is most appropriate.
😍
Beautiful ! John and George are smiling down from heaven
Thank you for the comment. I hope so!
Great rendition
Being indian musician I totally loved it
Thanks! I appreciate
A great cover... How music reminds us we are all the same
Yes, music is great.
とても素晴らしいカバー・編曲になります。ありがとうございました!また色々聴かせて頂ければと思います!

Sounds good! Thank you for your comment. 😉
Absolutely beautiful! If only YT had shown this earlier.🥰

Beautiful my brethren from Japan❤
Love from an Indian❤
This cover is amazing! I love the Beatles and I'm also learning Japanese now. Sugoi!
Thank you very much!
exquisite!
what the heck. Why didn't youtube recommend me this earlier!? Its so good!
Nice to meet you, then
Hey, YT did to me also! Perhaps the genius of the almighty AI. Or not...😂
@@jackweaver4564 I'm happy if TH-cam recognized us as worth recommending...
One of the best cover Ive heard
Thank you very much!
I think Ravi Shankar would like this. Such a beautiful cover.
Gave me chills.
Good to know
this is beautiful
This is so beautiful!! Thank you ❤
Thank you, too ❤️
The original Norwegian Wood by the Beatles, 1965, had a sitar. Great idea to perform this song with much more Indian instruments.
Yeah, we really enjoyed this performance with Indian instruments.
Different and delightful.
I'm happy if you enjoyed this
Sweet🎶
🙏
Nice cover😎
That violin type instrument also sounded very awesome
That is the esraj. This (or the dilruba) gives the essential sound for the music of "Within You, Without You."
This is great
Awesome
A truely great cover presented with love. Thank you!
Thank you for the comment. Yes, and we played with a lot of joy.
Beautiful ❤❤❤
シタールとタブラなどの楽器を使って、演奏するのは、とても本格的ですね。驚きました。
ありがとうございます。
Very groovy 😎
Again an excellent job FAB 4 ! Love your Beatles music ! Cheers and Happy Holidays from Mike in Boston
Thank you very much for your kind words.
Indonesia hete..amazing
Fantastic!!!! Beatles forever!!!
Very good
Thanks!
Wow, that was beautiful, next song please do a cover of "within you without you" by the Beatles
Yes, we did.

ジョージが憧れたのはまさにこんな感じの演奏と世界観なんでしょうね、(親子二代揃ってビートルズのファンです)
そんなふうに感じていただけたなら、動画公開した甲斐があるというものです。ありがとうございます
To say at least, amazing cover and thank you 7stringst.
Thank you very much for your comment.
@@7stringist I wonder what kind of instruments that the 2 beautiful ladies are playing.
@@armandovalencia9417
The bigger one on the right called "sitar" and the smaller one in the center called "esraj." Both are from India.
This is a great cover, much love guys!!!
Thank you for the comment!
Beautiful! Thanks for posting.
You are very welcome. Thanks!

Beautiful version of this classic.....Ireland
Thanks. I still couldn't believe this was our just one-off performance.
Awesome! Love playing this song on guitar, this version is amazing!
Thank you very much for watching this!
@@7stringist No problem! Can’t wait for your next video!
@@trishamorris3620 I hope so too. I want to do this kind of real live performance when we overcome COVID-19.
@@7stringist That would be amazing I’d love to see you guys perform live sometime. Can’t wait until covid is over and we can enjoy live music again.
Woooo hhoooooo ! Wow
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Wonderful. Thank you! :)

Very nice - thank you and greetings from Germany !
Thank you very much from Japan!
@@7stringist - I come back tonight to hear your playing once more :) Love it :)

Super nice to hear
Super thank you
Love from India.
Appreciate from Japan
Beautiful cover, sugoi!
Thank you!
Unreal 👏
Yes, this is real
@@7stringist "Unreal" in this context means "very good"!
@@David_P132 Yes, I know. I just would like to tell you, even for me, this was unrealistically good real performance.
私はあなたのビデオを見つけてとても幸せです。彼らはとても平和で美しいです!
見つけていただいてよかったです。ありがとうございます!
Brilliant cover. I would be interested in knowing why three people found it worthy of a thumbs down.
Thank you very much for your kind comment.
Flawless. Simply flawless.
Appreciated. Simply appreciated.
@@7stringist You're welcome 😊All four of you.
I feel like this is what they had in their heads recording it but due to limitations they couldn't get this quality
That's too much... Their version is the best, but, thank you.
very harmonious
Thanks!
The music was amazing
Thanks
o god
Loved the sarangi on this!
Actually, it is not the sarangi but the esraji. Anyway, she, the player is very glad to hear that.
Aside from George's use of the sitar, John Lennon wrote the song which has a deeper meaning.
"I once had a girl or should I say, she once had me"... Therein lies the pretext. John had a gift for language as he changed the title from "Knowing She Would" to "Norwegian Wood" cleverly circumventing the sensors. John was always one move ahead of everyone. So misunderstood as are most gifted artists.
I didn't know that. Very interesting story. Thank you very much for sharing.
Nicely done.
Thank you!
インド風にするとジョンというよりかジョージのイメージ強くなっていいかも!!
当日はそういうコンセプトでのカバー演奏でした!!
Very good!
Thanks!
Sounds like Beatles ft. Ravi shankar.... Lived this version
Thanks for this lovely comment.
Freakin AWESOME
Aw, that may be too much
Amazing :)
Such unique and beautiful rendition!
I think this type of arrangement with esraj is not very often played

Super Top from Germany

Great! Are you tuned your sitar to D or C#?
Thanks! It was in D.
@@7stringist Thanks, you guys sound amazing!
Japanese people covering an American song in an Indian style.
American? Written by a group from UK.
Lmao
It is a british song
Not bad for a cover version!
Thanks!
need more beatles!
I hope so when we overcome Covid-19!
Japan is a trippy place bro.
I believe Japan is good for trip but don't know whether it's trippy.
This is actually a really good arrangement with the instruments they probably should have used the first time! :)
Thanks for the comment :)
👏😀👏🇵🇪

このメンバーは固定的なバンドとして活動されているんですか? 7stringist で検索しても出てこないで聞いてみました。
結果的にこの時の1回限りのメンバーです。年1回とかでもいいから定期的にできたらいいとも思っていたのですが、コロナになって...という感じです
@@7stringist そうですか 返信ありがとうございます。 コロナは終息するどころか再拡大の模様。
いまコロナ禍での国の補償「事業復活支援金」関係の仕事をしています。それはすでに受付終了しましたが、プロの音楽家で収入減少の影響を受けていたら、そういう制度を利用して活動を維持していただきたいと思います。
@@user-zl3oh8mz3d お気遣いありがとうございます。プロではないので活動にあたって収入は問題ではないです。コロナのリスクをおかしてまで集まれないということにつきますね。
George will love this version xD
It would be nice. Thanks. :D
Amazing and Beautiful🎵🎵🎵
Super like👌👌👌 Music🎶 so peaceful and different.
Do keep posting
Warm regards and best wishes

Thank you very much. Yeah, I want to keep my music life.
@@7stringist Yes Music🎶 is Life.. Very true.
Awesome cover! Although I do have to say the singer couldn't articulate the pronunciations properly, maybe due to him being a native speaker (it's all good).
Loved all the band members!
Thank you for the positive comment. I, the singer, am not a native speaker and I know my vocal isn't very good.
