Shanna Bol To be honest, I wouldn't know if they were in their time or not. I do know however that that synth was the best they could do with their limitations of technology. I'm just messing with you :p
my mother turned me and my cousin on to this when we were kids in the early, early, early, 80's, a few years ago, i purchased the dvd, shes gone now, whenever i watch it i think of her
Certain melodic abominations notwithstanding, I DIG the striptease/dirty feel of this version. And that second section of harmonic breakout (the layers of "Heavy, heavy, HEAVYYYYY") spectacularly nail the brilliance of that chord's structure. I always thought the visuals of the spinning record and bed in the movie were really the perfect choice for the whole pimpy vibe of this incarnation. And Dianne Steinberg and her ladies take me over the top... Thank you for keeping this version alive!
😮H, I've never forgotten that scene with the spinning record bed; but had no idea it was actually a waterbed. I also remember that scene ending with a couple kissing on it. L😂L! ⏺️🌊🛏️💋
It was a combo of really bad timing, their respect for the Beatles and their fears of overexposure. Unfortunately, their worst fears were realized. The Bee Gees were criticized early in their career as being Beatles knock-offs, and this just cemented that in the minds of their haters. It was just the wrong project at the wrong time with all the wrong people attached to it. They ended up suing RSO Records and the late Sir Robert Stigwood not long afterwards. Most of the Beatles were pretty cool about the Bee Gees covering their songs, although I suspect John Lennon probably regretted giving Maurice Gibb his first drink :)
@@cubdukat Paul and Ringo attended the premier and didn't like it. George refused to see it and expressed sympathy for Frampton & the Bee Gees for having their careers hurt by it. John had to watch it as an in-flight movie TWICE IN A ROW while on a plane from Rome to NYC in 1979 and said it was "the longest night of my life" lol
Pink Floyd was definitely influenced by the original Beatles songs. The finale of Dark Side was clearly inspired by (the original version of) this song.
Strong disagree. Donald Pleasance should've sang the whole song. As a matter of fact, the entirety of the Sgt Pepper's soundtrack should've been sung by only Donald Pleasance. No one else.
this is a great version and its a pretty smokin hot sequence in the movie. the Bee Gees do their harmony part very well . there were other covers before this including a nice one by Eddie Hazel
Yeah the Bee Gees were way ahead of their time, these songs are awesome . . . oh wait, the BEATLES wrote them 11 years before this movie came out. So . . . . yeah. Someone was ahead of their time.
This version screams, "Hey everybody! Let's put this song in the scene showing rock and roll decadence and get everyone who's in it to sing a line of it! Except you, Donald, you can't sing, so you just speak the words. Hey, you still get to kick it off!" :-D
I was young when this movie came out, and I didn't even realize these were Beatles songs at the time. This was one of the few songs that really captured me. When I discovered Abbey Road years later, I realized how much *better* the original version of this (and everything, really) was. Even so, I have a nostalgic fondness for the film and the soundtrack. Aerosmith rocked "Come Together", but really - everything else was pale in comparison to the original recordings.
@@officialFredDurstfanclub I will totally give you that. It was a regular listen for me when I had the soundtrack a zillion years ago. A Day In The Life isn't bad either, but again, the Beatles version is better. I remember disliking "Because" at the time, but after discovering it on Abbey Road years later, it's one of my favorite Fab Four songs.
Not to be vain, but I know you do, nothing is more obvious..Youve been following me in the shadows for 7 years...Aside that, this is one of the best versions of the beautiful Beatles masterpiece
My folks have this soundtrack on record. I used to like it a lot. Then I got Abbey Road on CD. That made this sound lame. Then when I read an interview with Barry Gibb where he trashed the movie, that did it. So I haven't listened to it since. But when I did a TH-cam search for I Want You She's So Heavy this came up in the search results and I couldn't resist.
This verison of I want you is sooooo much better, besides the first three singers. Every aspect of this song is better singing wise and especially guitars and drums
Ahh, the movie that mixed the Beatles with some disco, played out like Rocky Horror Picture Show, and throw in The Phantom of The Paradise for good measure. It was a fun movie to watch at the midnight movies.
I have been searching for this BEE GEES version of I WANT YOU ---That SOLO is a masterpiece ---! CAN ANYONE GET ME THE TAB FOR THIS UNUSUAL SOLO (NOT the same as the Beatles version --this solo is unique !
strawberry fields should’ve come back as a bad girl groupie instead of dying when Aerosmith came on. kind of like sandy from grease in a way? and they could try to get her back to normal
If it was, it was most likely Maurice. He was the uber-musician of the group. Then again, it may've been a session player; I'm not sure the BeeGees played much of the instruments in studio by the 70's, unlike the '60's when Maurice nearly always had a Rickenbacker bass strapped to him.
is there any song Dianne Steinburg sings on as cool as this one ? I love her voice in this particular song a lot but every other recording i find of her so far just sucks ass like she should be singing in mall converted to an ice rink in 1978 .. very poor disco esqu crap is all i find .. anyone out there who can turn me on to some great Steinburg tracks like this one ????
One fun track on what is honestly one of the worst movies ever made. (And please don't conflate what an amazing song this is with this cheap, lazy cover.)

The one album I wish was on Spotify. This one.
True
Estoy de acuerdo, lo he buscado hoy y por eso estoy aquí escuchándolo al no encontrarlo. Excelentes versiones.
I think the Bee Gee's were way ahead of their time. This soundtrack is awesome! Especially their version of She's Leaving Home!
ELO must have listened to that before they wrote Mr Bluesky.
Shanna Bol You hear that synth? They're well within their time.
Shanna Bol To be honest, I wouldn't know if they were in their time or not. I do know however that that synth was the best they could do with their limitations of technology. I'm just messing with you :p
This is a gd awful travesty. Ahead of its time? LOL
So, the Beatles were ahead of their time cuz they're all Beatles songs.
Remember the record bed?
Yes
I am 39 this was my parents first date in fort Myers FL
Not easily forgotten. Wish I could remember how young I was.. Seminal moment. Frampton should do this live.
Someone needs to post that video clip of this song and the spinning record waterbed. LOL! @donereally
@@Loveamor006, somebody did, but Universal made TH-cam make them take it down.

wow me too!

Favorite of the whole soundtrack!
Account was Hacked this is first on my list and then Strawberry Fields Forever.
Who are you and we Might be Soul Mate's …. Cheers
What--no votes for George Burns' frightening rendition of Fixing a Hole?! :)
Oh and Thank God for the Bee Gees. Amen.
😮H, I've never forgotten
that scene with the
spinning record bed; but had no idea it was actually a waterbed.
I also remember that scene ending with a couple kissing on it.
L😂L! ⏺️🌊🛏️💋
The Harmonies and solo in this are top notch
This is my old account. I forgot I commented this 🤣
One of the best songs out of the whole movie
who still listening this?
Me I do..
I watch the Movie at Least once a Year...Love it
Also I have the LP...
One of the funky songs!! Love it!!
Very special HUGE THANKS TO
Donald Pleasance, I
mean that boy just totally
HIT IT, MAN!!
she's so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, HEAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This was the first movie I ever heard a Dolby Stereo soundtrack on. I remember being so impressed at how clear and crisp the high frequencies were.
I have been waiting to hear this for about ten years and got to see the movie 3 nights ago
Why you wait so long? Amazon has been a thing since the 90s…not to mention the internet, Netflix, video stores, etc… 🤔
This is when they corrupt Billy.
Lmaooo
don't know why Peter Frampton and I' the bee gees never liked doing this. it's spectacular .
Because they were honest and had sense enough to know how much the movie and these covers suck.
Because to their peers the Beatles were gods and they didn't like the fact that to the 70's teens the Bee Gees were better.

Actually the critics didn’t like it either but to me it was a masterpiece
I love The Beegees. I'm 53 and i have. Been listening since 12 yers old.
Yesterday I have just turned 51 and since I was 10 the bee gees were the first love of my life.
Greetings from Egypt.
I was just listening to Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar" and i had sonic flashbacks to this recording. Anybody else hear it?
Pink Floyd was definitely influenced by the original Beatles songs. The finale of Dark Side was clearly inspired by (the original version of) this song.
Absolutely
Love the song,and love the movie!
So do I. One of my favorite movies
Love the movie. Got the dvd, album, cassette, dvd and somewhere VHS lol
This part of the movie
This could have been a masterpiece if only Donald Pleasance wasn't speaking at the beginning. Love the harmonizing by the Bee Gees.
He's supposed to do that; in the movie, he's playing the record company guy in the limo saying how much he wants them.
Donald Pleasance? I often wondered who that was.
Strong disagree. Donald Pleasance should've sang the whole song. As a matter of fact, the entirety of the Sgt Pepper's soundtrack should've been sung by only Donald Pleasance. No one else.
That bass!
David Hungate played the bass, it's one of the best bass playing i've ever heard in my life!
Underrated version of this song.
@@tacoboyable No this is actually better in terms of guitar and drums. You can't deny it.
@@moonbeamskies3346 Don't forget the bass. The person who played bass on this entire album kicked ass.
That fabulous solo --starts at 2:41 ---on this video ---listen to its brilliance ---someone please find the tab ---1
Spotify! Put this on your streaming man! I need to jam to this in the car!!!
OMG!!!!💖🌼❤💍😻👑🎹😎💗💞💓 I'm lovin' it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the drummer kicks ass!
Bernard Purdy
@@eschaef71 no Jeff porcaro
@@eschaef71 is it really? it certainly sounds like him. and who's the bassist?
Donald Pleasance..... "-it's driving me mad, it's driving me MAAAADDDDDDD!!!"
I L💋💋VV that part uv the song. I mean it sounds
T😎😎 "BAAAAADD!!!!" 😄
this is a great version and its a pretty smokin hot sequence in the movie. the Bee Gees do their harmony part very well . there were other covers before this including a nice one by Eddie Hazel
This is the best backing band ever!

Say what you will about the quality of the movie as a film, but the soundtrack kicked ALL the ass.
Best Soundtrack everrrrrrrr
❤😍😍😍 I love this song!
Me too👑
''It's driving me mad, it's driving me maaaaaaaaad....''
This is amazin on vinyl me and my girl listen to it and it's great you guys should experience it too💿
I was nine or ten years old when I saw this movie.
This version screams, "Hey everybody! Let's put this song in the scene showing rock and roll decadence and get everyone who's in it to sing a line of it! Except you, Donald, you can't sing, so you just speak the words. Hey, you still get to kick it off!" :-D
I always thought the spoken words in the beginning were Steve Martin, I can imagine him being all goofy while reading jt
Amazing
this movie is my drug.
i really like the bee Gees on this one
This song is the shizzz!!! If you don't have the right sound system then it dosn't matter!!!!! SORRY!!!!!!!
I love this movie 🍿
This song is freakin hot, sounds cool asf
What a frickin hot song it's m.f. tough.shes so..................heavy heavy heavy!!!

Rythm section is fantastic..Wilbur Bascomb bass:Jeff Porcaro drum🙀
I never knew Jeff Porcaro was on this! 😮
@@robotbride Yes man U can read credits on LP no doubt about his playing
@@timebellenavot oh, I don't doubt it! I just never knew. I was talking about Porcaro's playing just yesterday, so it was crazy to learn this today!
David Hungate of Toto on bass ! awesome
Who else thinks that Peter Frampton is cute
Best part of the Movie ….
strawberry fields should’ve come back as a bad girl groupie instead of dying when Aerosmith came on. kind of like sandy from grease in a way? and they could try to get her back to normal
funky !!! the bass line is way better than Mac´s!!
Are you serious???!!
@@albertodiaz8810 Why wouldn't he be serious? This bass is killer.
When you say "Mac", you mean Mac Davis...............right?
I saw the Movie in 1977 as a Kid and the Beatles don't even come Close ….
Best Verision
I LOVE!!!!
I Concur ...
Version*
I wonder what they were smoking in this movie I want some haha
But NAAAAAAAAHHHH, I
want none.
I am pleasance and I am funky
she's so ..... heavy
Funky!!!!!!!!
The beginning vocals challenge Vincent Price’s voiceover in Thriller
3:23
Finishes on 3:23 ---WHAT A SOLO !
♥️
I wonder if frampton played on this..thd guitar sorta sounds like his style.
+HalfLifeAMD I thought the same thing!
+Stanley Rajnert im sure its frampton...another thing id like to know is played bass...that person is a beast! incredible player.
Probably one of the Bee Gees on bass. They're all incredible multi- instrumentalists.
If it was, it was most likely Maurice. He was the uber-musician of the group. Then again, it may've been a session player; I'm not sure the BeeGees played much of the instruments in studio by the 70's, unlike the '60's when Maurice nearly always had a Rickenbacker bass strapped to him.
they were in the movie Sgt Pepper's Loney Hearts Club Band.
Please please find me this unusual SOLO ?? Someone ?
Nossssa
Yes! But I love Beatles!
This movie brings together the things I love about Pink Floyd the story telling of an album to the Beatles
fuck its so heavy the voice so deep
2:18
The Osmonds related to The Beatles music ?
Jim Henrix Guitar Solo ?
Jimi Hendrix passed away in 1970.
Isn't that Rocky Athas on guitar?
What ever happened to their hot air balloon?
I heard this before I heard the Beatles original and I still like it better. Sorry beatles purists.
Bested the beatles on the final quality of the song..from guitar rift to vocals
George Martin produced this too. Yes it's better because the Beatles weren't good instrumentally. They could write but not play.
I want you so bad
Dana Trosky she's so...
HEAVYYYYYYYYYYyyyy
Sohn Jmith HEAVYYYYYYYYY
Heavy....
Alice Cooper sings "I Want You" as well in the Soundtrack.
Wait?????? What??????

lucy in the sky she also did in movie
She is on facebook and is very nice to talk to about the movie.

This song could have only come out in 1978. God only knows the amount of cocaine and booze that made The Bee Gees think that this would be good.
Good God almighty 😵 Sounds like something from a cheap porno. Just ghastly. Now where's that Abbey Road CD so I can hear it done properly?
The guitars and drums are better here. You can't deny it.
Paul McCarthy version
wow billy shears cheating
The writers of this flick must not listen to they're albums. On my original album it's titled "she's so" not I want you!
beatles cover
Did u think everyone didn't know that? Lol!
If only they'd release this track without the "vocals."
One fun track on what is honestly one of the worst movies ever made.
(And please don't conflate what an amazing song this is with this cheap, lazy cover.)
The Type o negative cover version is better. 🤘
I see how this movie was such a flop. How can anyone have the audacity to think they can rework the beatles? This phrasing is so corny.
Donald Pleasance was a talented guy but singing was not one of said talents.
