I’m not a musician, but I love learning how these great Beatles songs are put together and performed. and when you perform the songs at the end of the demo, they’re always great!
It's truly amazing how much the young lads were playing and arranging songs in a "aeolian cadence" and didn't know it....! They were truly WAY ahead of their time.......I miss them...... Wonderful job Mike..!!!
Even in these early Beatles songs there are so many little nuances which add to the songs. Pretty impressive when you consider they were only in their early 20’s at the time.
Great Job on this one Mike. Back in the day my Group use to play this live. One of my Faviorite early Lennon songs. It was a group with no piano. Mark played Martins part on Guitar .I am sure George Harrison was not Happy he couldn't do that lead on Guitar. Oh well they ( The Beatles) weren't in control of things quite yet.
When a verse is 9 measures and the chorus is 10 measures, it's a sure sign the song is not based on a formula. Rather it follows it's own melody. Personally, I prefer these types of songs.
@cat - An "Aeolian cadence" is when a song in a major key resolves on the vi chord. "Not A Second Time" is in the key of G. The refrains end on Em. Em is the vi chord of G. The term is derived because the Aeolian mode is based on the sixth step of the major scale.
What a gift🎉
The history you share makes it even better!

Love the vocals.
Lennon: musical genius - that’s it. Great lesson for us fledgling guitarists Mike, and as usual a brilliant sound alike

couldn't agree more. When I write songs I pay no attention to measures . The only thing I have in common with John musically
Nice
Congrats on your great new CD, Mike. Is the missus back from the PO yet!
Mikee, could you tell how you mixing and mastering your Beatles lessons?
EQ, compressors and etc.
Very interesting.
huh i hadnt heard this one in years and in my mind it used more special/unusual chords. ill listen to the studio version later.
The melody on the ending sounds a little like All I’ve Got To Do 19:01
What’s this aeolian cadence again I don’t get it
