I also agree! So much happiness when listening and singing along. I am 73 and if I hear a Beatles song that I haven’t heard for awhile I still can sing along! Smiling all the way!
Greetings from Germany . In Hamburg there are also regular memorial concerts for John Lennon or the Beatles. The Beatles are loved everywhere like Mozart or Beethoven. Well done you New Yorkers 😍
This was FABulous!!!!! Everybody coming together honoring John Lennon. He's probably looking down and smiling at all of these fine people. Brought tears to my eyes because it was so touching and they all sang beautifully. A song that came from the BEST band on the planet...The Beatles, which I saw TWICE in person when I was a kid at two of their concerts in Chicago!!! John we love you, we miss you😢Rock them in heaven🤘🎸 Peace and Love☮❤🌼
if there´s one song (among others) that symbolizes what The Beatles were is this song. No matter how down or sad or deppresed I am there's no way that I listen to this song and not change my mood to absolute joy and happiness. Thank you Beatles and thank you all of you at Strawberry Fields in NYC for making me happy today...one more time !!
@Obnebur IV.4 - soulrubber I hope you're doing ok... Tears started flowing when the song began...I was crying for the human dichotomy of being as one in musical harmony, and blowing each other to bits in anger and hate... I cling to the music, love and harmony ☮🕊
This is how the world should always be. just imagine if people could always be like this. Peace and Love, nothing to kill or die for. 42 years after John's death and he is still bringing people together in a loving way. I miss the man.
I remember when the Beatles were going to appear on the Ed Sullivan Show for the first time in 1964 my Grandmother kept calling us up and kept reminding us DONT FORGET TO SEE THE BEATLES. GREATEST GROUP OF ALL TIME HANDS DOWN. THEIR MUSIC IS TIMELESS. I'M SURE THEY WILL STILL BE PLAYING THE BEATLES 100 YEARS FROM NOW.
@@thebeatlesnyc Yes the music we had back then was AWESOME. The Beatles,the Stones,Led Zeppelin,The Who,Jimi Hendrix, Ten Years After, Steppenwolf, the Doors,the Chambers Brothers. I can go on and on. Be well my friend and keep listening to the GREAT MUSIC FROM THE 60's.
One of my favourites. This puts me in that space, when the Beatles were at their absolute peak, in 1964. The world had gone mad for them and still really didn’t know what it had! Songs like this one just blew people away. That they were writing this stuff themselves and of such a quality, was not easy to take in. Again, the sheer joy of Beatlemania runs throughout this tune. So lovely to see people celebrating John and The Beatles, so many years later. You were wrong Grandad! They lasted longer than 6 months!
@@japsley6172 I wish I could say yes it is ! .. but I can't .. I am not John White of Wrexham ... All the best to you - if I may say again, that was a great comment, it really struck a chord with me.
Well done, I grew up with the Beatles, and this song is so magical. When I hear it I feel a combination of melancholy in the pit of my stomach, and joy that a song as brilliant as this even exists.
I am from Britain and i just love these beautiful tributes to the fabulous Beatles...i recignise very familiar faces who turn up year in year out and long may they continue x
This is amazing and almost made me cry to see all those people who still love John and the Beatles after all these years! I hope my children's children's children will still be singing these songs and love them just like I do! I'm proud of you guys in NYC for doing this!
I AM crying right now. My parents grew up with this music, I'm loving it and my 10 year old son is a huge fan on The Beatles. Life is temporary, love is forever.
Sitting at home after a long shift at 12.40 am ,with a few Beers in ENGLAND and this Restores my faith in Humanity. Thank you the REAL PEOPLE OF AMERICA 🇺🇸.. FREEEEEDOM ⭐️🌞⭐️🌞❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻😎.. And God bless you and THE BEATLES..❤️⭐️🌞👍🏻😎❤️❤️
This is such a joyful moment captured for posterity. I even like the videographer's off key singing. It just illustrates that community spirit. The music of the Beatles is for everyone. Even those who can't find the right notes. "The angels value enthusiasm over perfection," to paraphrase Charles Ives.
I love you guys. I am so envious of you being able to walk down to Central Park to sing and play the songs I derail dearly love and die remembering the greatness of music, warmth, and memories the Beatles have given us. I live in Australia and so much long to join you in this peaceful singalong. Your talents too are beautiful to watch and enjoy.
What can I say...Fantastic! The players and the crowd just nailed it, perfection. What a great atmosphere and a beautiful tribute to a very talented John Lennon. Wish I’d been there with you ❤🇬🇧
Defines an era……represents a place in time that takes one back in an instant like no other music can ……A time when life was simpler and far more innocent than today. It was a time when the future that lay ahead clearly brimmed with promise for the Beatles and for us all ! They changed everything in the music world ! ♥️ ! Wonderful ! Wish I were there to see this in person !
It's amazing how it pleases me to see young people, who wouldn't even be born until long after John's passing, enjoying this great music, and seeing how much it means to people like myself, who were around during its heyday.
I lived two blocks away, at 72nd and Amsterdam in 1980 and was at the Dakota the night John was shot. It is so great to hear people joyfully singing this song at Strawberry Field! Thank you!
Impressive to hear these talented young people doing this Beatles rendition that got me through some tough times in the Army. Awesome music & voices & directing!!!❤
There should be an annual day celebrating the Beatles like this because popular music exploded world wide once these 4 guys from Merseyside became the most influential musicians ever. Without them, teenage years would still be grey and flat and we would still wearing suits like our fathers. Gathering together and having a good old sing song of the Beatles classics no matter what your musical level is, looks fantastic.
@@Macca1000001 l agree, but the Beatles brought music through for the next generation and so forth where as Elvis etc. were already established for the older youths.
@@Macca1000001 Perhaps, but how many are still rocking out like this to any of the above mentioned? Almost 60 years later their music is still relevant.
Such an awesome way to celebrate a legend, John Lennon. The Beatles were amazing musicians and everything they put out turned to gold. So many excellent songs in such a short time they were together. At 63 I never get tired of listening to them. RIP John and George!
Cool. My favorite Beatles song ever since I saw A Hard Day's Night when in came out. I was six years old and almost 60 years later, this brings back memories.
Think how awesome this is that your life and music meant so much to so many people that even after 40 plus years after your death people gather to sing and laugh together to celebrate your life and everything that you left behind. What a great gift of your life to others you never met. Priceless
My mom was so cool she took me and sister’s to see the Beatles in1964 at the Hollywood bowl and 1968 at dodger stadium I will never forget thank you mom see you in heaven ❤️🙏much love for Beatle fan’s never met a bad one❤️all you need is love❤️
I remember when this song came out in July 1964. I was 11 years old and thought it was the best song ever, and for me it is. Well done all in the park singing especially the guys on the mouth organs.
Support? Buy me a coffee buymeacoffee.com/thebeatlesg
All ages, all races, and genders, together singing and celebratating the best rock and roll band ever. The magic of New York
The magic of The Beatles, I'd say
The gift of Music
I only see 2 genders.
There’s like 187
If only they could put away their phones for some minutes
. The Beatles music unites the people. Peace and love
Speaking of modern music, only Beatles music can get together people, young and less young, like this. Wonderful.
So true!
So very true. The Beatles gave us so much. Bless their Souls.
Muy cierto
And so many young people there♥
“Back in my day…”
I hope Ringo and Paul see this! They’d love it. 🎶
Send it to them maybe on Twitter? don't have access to these but if I did, I would, bet it's there already!
Absolutely!
Wouldn't it be heaven if they did show up to one, and hopefully join in, we can dream.
All this for that young lad from Liverpool. John Winston Lennon. Thank You New York from the UK. Well done.
REMEMBER. LENNON. ✌️
WAS NOT expecting this to be so amazing. Bring tears to your eyes. Well done evryone. Amazing!
and well done John!! miss you John…..
@@mickmac2223 that was a guy with a bad wig, your confused

Pure joy, the Beatles were, still are and will always be a happiness machine
Changed the world.

Return here often...it cheers me up.
Lennon McCartney songs will still be bringing joy in 2222
John and george surely smiling up there.
That's for sure!
Don't call him Shirley.
I did not say shirley its surely.

That's so true. I couldn't agree more. That's why I was singing along(my apologies for that). It's so uplifting.

@J Apsley, a great comment ...
Especially " the sheer joy of Beatlemania runs through this tune ... "
It certainly does.
@@tjcint just on the off chance, that's not John White from Wrexham is it?

"That they were writing this stuff themselves " You obvioulsy have'nt heard of the 5th Beatle , Theodor Adorno.
J....most young people just don't realize what they did to MUSIC in 63/64 a phenomena the likes of which will never be repeated
Greetings from Moscow. Thank you NYC! it's so nice to see people of different generations united by the Beatles.
Greetings from Canada - Канада
Greetings from Montreal.
Russia, stop the war in Ukraine!
@@getech I'm wondering if the USA weapon industry is profiting for that war
@@sofarsogut I certainly hope so. Need to make back some we money. Cheers
What an uplifting, touching, goofy tribute. Loved it.
Well done, I grew up with the Beatles, and this song is so magical. When I hear it I feel a combination of melancholy in the pit of my stomach, and joy that a song as brilliant as this even exists.
Same exact feeling here.
@@Songwriter376 lots of emotions ooze up for me with that song. And to think it was considered just a filler song in the movie.
I bet John knew ❤️

So moving, what a beautiful video. well done everyone love from the UK. The Beatles music will never die...........

Thank you everyone for participating in this tribute to dear John. John’s memory will live on.

Of course it's an easy song to sing.
Not too hard to play
D G Em B7

Play it all the time
45 years after his death, and 60 years after the song was released, crowds of people still gather to sing his songs. Amazing
JUST FANTASTIC! I love this!
This is beautiful. Music bringing people together.
I am just floored by this rendition of a great song, the musicians and the crowd just nailed it, many thanks for posting, Alan Liverpool ....
Oh wow. So poignant and heart fulfilling and moving. The Beatles were SO brilliant! Thanks to whoever put this up

From 17 to 70 they all know the words.
Well done.
A beautiful tribute to a man who gave so much to the World and was taken so violently ,way before his time, in the city he loved so dearly.
This gives hope. John will always be with us.
