Before you comment, I know these songs aren’t completely forgotten, especially by hardcore fans. But they are NOT widely known by casual fans and the general music scene. The ENTIRE reason I made this video was introduce these songs to those casual fans.
In other words, don’t take the title too seriously, it’s a slightly provocative title made to make the viewer think. just watch the video.
When the last of us fans that experienced Beatlmania are gone, then full realization/impact of what happened with there influence will be gone.
@@stevenjohnson5197yeah but the news footage will hint @ it.
@@robertoppenheimer842 Not the same. You had to experience what life was before The Beatles to really understand.
73 and I remember my 17 year old sister turning me on to them, and of course the live Ed Sullivan show. I was hooked
@@stevenjohnson5197 it is true -- modern depictions of that era (50's-1964) always get the hair too long. Take MASH for example. It's set in 1953 (+/-) & Hawkeye filming in 1970 has his almost Beatle length haircut. In say, 1957 @ least in what was then "out in the stix" rural Michigan, butch haircuts were THE thing. Anything longer and they'd question one's manhood to be sure. The Beatles changed all that with their longer hairstyles, looking today laughably short, but the long hair was quite the scandal @ the time!
Its only Love certainly deserves more respect its got a beautiful melody
Agreed!
Similar melody to ‘Being For The Benefit of Mr Kite.’
John hated it. It's an interesting twist musically, but not one I enjoy, glad some do appreciate what I miss.
I've always like the song.
It was 1964. . . I was 12 & dinking around when my mom called out from the livingroom "Come out here, you gotta see this!" It was the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. I couldn't decide whether to like them or not until the next morning at the schoolbus stop w/the other kids (all of whom were pretty enthusiastic about them). Ambivalence ended there. We used to play along to the records with coffee can drums & butter knives for drumsticks. BUT . . . I digress. . . Have a nice day!😊
I know them too and love them, especially I Don't Want to Spoil the Party.. 73 yrs old and I still remember how thrilling it was to hear and see them. 😊
These songs might be early Beatles songs but far from forgotten. I'm 79 and they were all a huge part of the Beatles success!
I wish I could share your optimism, but these songs are not well known even among music fans, at least in younger generations. Just to be honest, if you were to bring up I Call Your Name up in conversation, people would not know it.
I love these songs, and think they deserve more love / attention
I have always liked all of these song. They were not underrated by me.
I’m 74 and I have been listening to these songs since the very beginning of Beatlemania.
I hope you passed on your music to your kids if you had any because my dad listened to them as well he just passed away at 74 and it wasn't for him I would never heard of the Beatles
@@chewy96216 I passed them on to my kids. They are both in their early 30's now. My daughter has a very detailed large Yellow Submarine tattoo.
Same here.
@donaldroberts7055 that is fantastic
@@chewy96216 RIP to your Dad.
I'm surprised you didn't mention what I think is John Lennon's greatest song before "Rubber Soul": "There's a Place." I originally hated The Beatles (I thought they were just another rock 'n' roll band, and so what?) until I heard "There's a Place." As a shy little introverted kid and the object of a lot of bullying, I responded to the whole idea of having a secret place where I could go, And when Lennon sang, "And it's my mind," he had me. Incidentally, Lennon singled out "I'll Get You" for special praise in his last cycle of interviews in 1980 because it was the first song he'd written that used the word "imagine."
On the 50th anniversary of the recording of the album Please Please Me, several musical artists recorded one song each [it;s on a TV show] and Gabrielle Aplin - a folk singer type...sang it, recording it with her guitar and a string quartet at a slower speed...suddenly it became e a beautiful ballad! it's all in the presentation of a song, not that the song is bad itself as so many moronic critics believe.
Definite favourite track from their debut, pop perfection!
Thank you sir!
We've been without John Lennon longer than he was alive.
Yes, tume is running
I called out sick that day, because I was sick over this murder.
@@johnbrennan3779 I lived in NYC a few blocks from The Dakota and was very young but recall people were literally crying in the streets.
"Ask Me Why" is grossly underated
It can't be "underrated" if it is not that good in the first please.
"Tell Me Why"
@ Those are two different songs.
Second best track on their debut, after There’s a Place. Now that’s pop perfection.
@ Another dog. Every other Beatles album is better than the first one!
Wonderful personal insights!
Oh yes, I love all those early Lennon songs a LOT ~ I love, It's Only Love! I really enjoyed your video, CTW!
Appreciate the video. I always enjoy looking at the songs of the Beatles through different perspectives.
Thanks Steve.
These songs were never forgotten
Compared to Hey Jude, Yellow Submarine, Let It Be, She Loves You..etc, they absolutely are. It’s all relative.
“Politically correct, an unknown term during the tumultuous 60’s which would have abridged free speech just like it does as the Empire has sunk closer to the dustbin of history. Today’s environment plays havoc on the creation of art.
@ that term was used half jokingly, I don’t agree with sorta woke regulations on people speaking or art, I was just trying to make it clear, that a sizable amount of the population would certainly find it offensive and try to attack Lennon over it.
It's always wonderful to reflect on all these exceptional songs. Such a gift they have given us. Thank you for sharing.
Best band of all time ❤❤❤
I agree John
Incidentally, let's put in a plug for Lennon's two books "In His Own Write," and "A Spaniard in the Works." Both notoriously overlooked as hilarious examples of John's arty cartoons and funny writing. See "Good Dog Nigel" and "A Fat Growth on Eric Herbal" [sic], etc.
GREAT VIDEO AND GREAT FOOTAGE BRO!!!!! There are images that I've never seen before of concerts and interviews!!! Loved it!!!
Glad you liked the video montage!
Thanks for bringing these great tunes back to mind... They might not be 'masterpieces' in the grand scheme of things, but they're sure as heck better than anything I've ever written, and I'm glad to hear them again and remember just how many excellent album tracks and B sides we had, besides all the amazing HITS!
Back in the day (60s-70s) we 'consumed' our music a little bit differently than now; we'd put on a side of an LP, and listen from start to finish, then most likely flip it over and listen to the entire other side. So we would actually HEAR these songs all the time; they just fit in to the grand scheme of things. Later, when cassette machines come out, we would start making custom playlist tapes of all our favorite songs, and eventually some of these nuggets would slip to the bottom and not get heard much anymore. Lately I've been going back to listening to full album streams, because that's how I originally listened, and also because I think that's how they were originally MEANT to be heard. But, everything works according to your own habits and needs, i'm just saying that there's value to both approaches... :)
The Beatles repertoire is like a magical toy box, and you'll never run out of finding something obscure yet great in there to pass the time with or even to blow you away and make your day!
"I'll Get You" was the USA capital album The Beatles Second Album" - those of us who live through the era and are diehard fans [of which there are millions of us] are well aware the song. It's only ignored by superficial fans with selective hearing musical preferences fostered by corporate radio playlists...and younger people who have no clue nor give a damn because of their limited exposure to only their era's music. it is a typical behavior pattern....but the young reactors learning about these, bravo for them! .
If I can get at least a few people to check out these tracks, thats a win, as someone who is young, I am 20, I am going be honest, not a lot of people know The Beatles, let alone these more obscure gems.. Second Album is probably the best American album in my view, pure rock, Money followed by Can't Do That, MAGIC.
And don't underestimate the difference between the US and GB releases. The whole sequence of the albums was distorted by what was released in the states. I never thought of "Drive my car" as being on any album but Yesterday and Today; was shocked @ the 14 song albums in England while here Capitol Records picked our pockets with their 11- and 12-song versions.
@@CartersWalrus "I am going be honest, not a lot of people know The Beatles..." That's just not true. Every music fan knows most of the hits and every Beatles album released today sells like crazy. Just because you discovered the group earlier than your friends, doesn't mean that the rest of them will learn about the group eventually.
@ the vast majority of people born after 1980 do not have an understanding of the Beatles, this isn’t an insult to anybody, it’s just reality, maybe they have heard Hey Jude, but have an understanding of why they matter? No.
All I’m trying to do is expose casual fans and non-fans to some lesser know tracks, how exactly is that wrong?
@ Nothing wrong with highlighting lesser-known Beatles tracks. But don't pretend you understand the Beatles knowledge and interest of anyone other than your immediate age group, because you do not.
Great video ❤
All these songs are my favourites by The Beatles. I don't like their later stuff. You mentioned You Can't Do That - that's possibly my favourite song of all time.
@@chrisst8922 I probably agree, love that cowbell and Lennon solo.
Love the early stuff
To me they're great great song
@@LouisSpeciale-vp9sl I agree!
The early Beatles songs were their best. Not a dog among them. The B sides would have made many obscure groups famous. Incredible songwriting.
My greatest collection of the Beatles is 2 albums Revolver and live at the Hollywood bowl signed by John Paul George and Ringo
The bowl recording is great!
WOW! Signed! What a blessing.
@ sad thing during Covid I went to a yard sale this lady’s mother had passed I bought a box of momentos a autograph book was in it she had all four autographs of the Beatles plus other singers I paid $25 for it since then I have amassed 10 autographs of the Beatles
It's funny, but I heard Lennon on a radio interview in the sixties and he said he was embarrassed with "Ask Me Why" and that "It's Only Love" was a "stinker!" I liked those tunes.
For a true Beatle fan, these songs are not unknown at all - they belong in the collection.
Yeah I agree, hence why I know them and want them to become more known, but these songs are pretty unknown to casual fans and general music fans. That is who this video is primarily made for, not hardcore Beatle fans specially
@@CartersWalrus Fair enough ...
I love how Macca’s songs are all his and Lennon’s songs are 50% his. It shows a deep sense of humility😂
I love all these songs! 😎👍🏻
Me too!
I totally agree with your song choices. With the Beatles is still in my top 5 Beatle albums. The best til Rubber Soul. And I still have an original vinyl copy though I have had several replacements on vinyl and CD, which I was once told would last forever.
Love all these songs.
some I have not heard before and some I know well, great video ,,,,,,,,,,,greetings Renee from Australia
Glad you were able to discover some new tracks!
Yes it is, not heard too often. A Lennon gem.
@@ibberman good song
These have always been among My favorite Beatles songs.
John's early Beatles songs are so full of innovations, musically and lyrically. They're full of little surprises and quirks that make you want to listen to them again. I've never done a song for song count, but i also think John was more prolific than Paul in that period. Here's a good pub quiz question. What other song of John's, (apart from the obvious one), also begins with the word "Imagine" ?
I’ll Get You.
All I’ve for to do is awesome
Amazing -- these are some of our favorite Beatles songs! Have thought for a while the earlier era is as good as, if not better, than the later times. And the Beatles totally revived and reintroduced Black music to sheltered 'murcan teenagers. "@ the BBC" also gave them much rehearsal time cutting essentially live tracks in the studio, w/some great songs never gotten around to on formal album sessions: ("Sure to Fall in love w/you," "Memphis Tennessee," etc.)
Love all those bbc tracks, I Got To Find My Baby, my favorite bbc only cover.
Carol, Hippy Hippy Shake, Shiek of Araby; the list goes on & on.@@CartersWalrus
"I'll be back" is another one that belongs on this list.
@@iriemon1796 that’s a good one
I of course know all these. I'm old. But these are some good tracks. People like to downgrade their early work. That is a big mistake in my opinion. A Hard Day's night is a brilliant album and I rate it number 3 after Revolver and Rubber Soul. Where would I put Pepper? I really don't know.
A Hard Days Night is my favorite album personally. Then Rubber Soul, then maybe White Album. I love their early stuff, I think it's perfect. A Hard Days Night just features so many stand out great pop songs, the title track, should have known better, if I fell, tell me why, can't do that, can't buy me love.. all top tier songs.
I’d think There’s a Place is also a fabulous Lennon song, and it is even earlier than the others.
Thats a good one too, love there's a place.
I call your name is one of the best songs ever!
I quite like it myself!
None of these songs are unknown to me. Play the intro and I’ll do the rest 😅
Glad you know them, hope more people can learn about them, because they are GREAT!
Your voice makes me think that you are quite young.. like in your 20s maybe? Anyway, at my age of 65, I practically grew up with the Beatles and the music of the 60s. It’s refreshing to hear about your interest in these lesser known Beatles tracks. There is a lifetime of examination of their music ahead young man. I hope you enjoy discovering all about the four lads.
Thanks for the comment. I am 20.
The reason I made this video is to bring attention to this lesser known tracks to my generation, been a Beatle fan for years and hope the rest of my generation can appreciate them.
# 1 from this list to me: "You've got to hides your love away".
That’s a good one
i think You Won't See Me is a great song..sounds like a Lennon song
Some of my favorite Beatles' songs. They're from the pre-LSD days.
I love these pre 66 songs too!
IMPOSSIBLE TO CHOOSE
And there's My Heart Is In A Puddle In The Road.
As an original fan, I agree with this list.
I had " I' ll Get You" on the Swan Label. I thought " Thank You Girl" was the A?
On Parlophone it was From Me To You B/W Thank You Girl and She Loves You B/W I'll Get You
@@chrisst8922 My Parlophone 45 has She Loves You on one side and I'll Get You on the flip side. My sister found it in a thrift store 15 years ago and gave it to her Beatle crazed brother me.
every john song is 50/50 whilst every mccartney song is 100% mccartney - strange that
The Beatles did record several Motown songs in the early years and did other Motown songs in the clubs pre-Beatlemania. McCartney's song "Got To Get You Into My Life" he said was his attempt at capturing the Motown sound. I find it interesting that McCartney has said in interviews in recent years that he thought all the Motown songs sounded familiar and were in a sense formulaic. Really? He obviously didn't feel that way in the '60s. I've noticed in recent years McCartney has been taking songwriting credit for many songs that were Lennon's. This includes "In My Life", a song Lennon himself described as all his. For whatever reason McCartney seems compelled to make sure everyone knows just how important he was as a Beatle and that every Beatles song has his imprint on it. Well Lennon is no longer here so he cannot defend himself so I take McCartney's boasts with a grain of salt.
I think he's probably telling the truth, _as he remembers it._
What I'm saying is that I don't think he's being dishonest.
@BugRib Not likely but by his own admission his memory isn't all that good. He has said that Beatles fans know more about his life than he does!
I hate to disagree with the genius of Mr. Lennon, but he was his own worse critic. He dismisses what most of us grew up with, and he cannot take that away from us. What Mr. Lennon might consider as his worse material is better than many artist’s best material.
@@chrismcdowell7138 I agree!
John was oddly dismissive of several of his great songs.
I've heard of them all... because I am a huge fan since forever.... and I pay a subscription to satellite radio to get the Beatles channel in my cars. They play and talk about all the obscure and lessor known songs as well as all the staples. I can admit once in a while they play something I have never heard before and wonder how it was possible lol.
These songs are very well known to me.
The title is contradictory. How can I or anyone forget what we've never heard?
@@lindacorwin9066 there is such a thing as a provocative title, this is relatively common for TH-cam, of course they’re not forgotten by hardcore Beatle fans like me, but certainly not as well known as their hits, tell me why is no she loves you.
to us original Beatlemaniacs , these songs aren’t forgotten nor underrated; they’re Beatles songs…it’s great that young people keep discovering the best band in the land but realize there’s 60 + years of written & aural history…these click bait TH-cam videos are are a waste of time for older fans
@@franktaconelli9095 of course they’re not forgotten, they are the biggest band ever, but certainly compared to She Loves You, Want To Hold Your Hand, Ticket To Ride, Yellow Submarine, Hey Jude..etc, these songs are overlooked, and not talked about or discussed as much.
Of course it’s a little bit of a provocative title, that’s YT.
Here, here, you nailed it with your comment. I'm 70, and I include four Beatle songs in my repertoire when I play open mike or on a busy street corner. I call them the Fab Four. "Misery, Thank you Girl, There's a Place and Ask me why."
Any Beatlehead is familiar with all of these.
That weren't overlooked if you were there.
Duh, but they are overlooked by newer fans, casual fans, and non-fans, that is who the video is for. Spreading knowledge about some lesser known songs to non-hardcores
If you listen to the track written by the Beatles on the bbc tapes and Star club tapes , and the Hamburg tapes you realize that John Lennon had lesser covers then most of the songs appearing on those albums !
Big fan of Early Beatles when they were a Rock and Roll band. Even their cover tunes maybe better than the originals. The later material tho arguably great seemed to lack in cohesive vibe. I would guess because they would record individualy to tracks as opposed to recording as a band.
all these songs are EXTREMELY well known. even a casual beatle fan knows them. youre just too young to realize this. many of these songs were in help and a hard days night. millions upon millions know these songs
You’re too out of touch to realize that these songs not well known. Ask a casual Beatle fan, or non-Beatle music fan if they know I’ll Get You, let alone All I’ve Got To Do
These are underrated songs that are clearly not big hits, played on the radio much, or considered their “best” work by music reviewers..
so how dare I try to expand knowledge of these songs to more casual fans
@@CartersWalrus these songs were all on the radio in 64 and 65. I was there. Maybe some 20 something’s dont know them but everybody else does. It’s a reality. What’s your problem son?
Well done for referencing the proper albums, ie the UK ones, instead of the US abominations
I prefer the UK ones! Though the U.S ones do have a certain charm, especially Something New and 2nd album, the rest, in my opinion can be forgotten.
Oddly enough, as an American I'm inclined to agree with you on that. I hate taking songs and putting them piecemeal on another album. It's just stupid. They should have been identical everywhere.
@@Mick_Ts_Chick the Beatles agree!
@@Mick_Ts_Chick Even now, it irks me the way Capitol butchered the carefully constructed tracklists, running orders and aesthetically pleasing artwork, in favour of exploitative, crass and vulgar US albums. Prime example - The Beatles Second Albumm with just five tracks from the actual Beatles second album and just one Paul lead vocal, and the words "electrifying big-beat performances.."as if it were a sign in a supermarket. Add to that a fairly rubbish collection of sepia photos, compared to the tasteful and groundbreaking photo on With The Beatles.. I am rambling, because it was so tacky.
1 more thought: Seemingly have a memory in the (late?) summer of 1963, before JFK was taken out, of maybe hearing one of the Swan label 45's on WLS out of Chicago, w/commentary on this phenomenon out of Great Britain. Can anyone confirm???
It’s not even « hardcore » to know these Beatles songs. What might be “hardcore”, is knowing sixties psychedelic pop gems sung by German, French. Italian or Spanish girls :
Marion Maerz - Abyssinian Secret (1967)

Obviously, you mention "pre-Rubber Soul." To me, the two best songs that folks may or may not know but are massively underappreciated are "Happiness is a Warm Gun" and "Hey Bulldog." Two awesome numbers that never or very rarely get airplay and the casual 60s music fan probably has never heard. As far as your list here- definitely not songs that get the airplay or are really know outside the Beatle fandom. "I will say "It's Only Love" is one John HATED in retrospect. It is one I usually skip over when I listen to the album.
If I had to pick a skip on Help! would probably have to be Harrison's I Like You Too Much, a lot worse then his other Help! song, I Need You. I am a bit of Lennon diehard though, so take my view with a grain of salt.
I will probably make a sequel to this video exploring those later period underrated songs, and Hey Bulldog will be on there, good song.
@@CartersWalrus And I would also pick "What Goes On" on help as a pass, as well. Cheers!
I enjoyed this and as it turns out these are some of my favorites as well. I would highly recommend killing the idiotic background music if possible because it is very distracting and has nothing to do with what this post is about. Thanks for making this, though- brings back many great memories.
Thanks for the feedback on the music, will use something less overpowering next time.
@@CartersWalrus I hope I didn’t offend you because I really enjoyed the whole video. Thanks for being understanding. Keep up the great work!! Made my day!!
Sorry I used the word “idiotic”- rude of me.
Just my opinion but these under known songs from both John and Paul are my favorites and their best. While In My Life and Day In The Life are thought to be their best I much prefer these. My list of top 12 from each is much different from others. Also, I agree about I Call Your Name. A boy wanting his mom.
big night out 1964 intro dvd my :)
I personally like all these tracks compared to some of Paul’s songs .
“All I’ve Got to Do” is reggae.
All great songs.
No need to show Jimmie Nicol footage…🤔
I think I only used a small bit, at an Australian press conference, good eyes
Always wondered if "I'll get you in the end" was really about anal sex.
lol that’s funny Sean, good theory
@@CartersWalrus It's not unfounded since John and Paul would love to sneak little double-entendres into their songs. "Tit tit tit" in "Girl," "Four of fish and finger pies" in Penny Lane, "Come Together," are prime examples of this. The line in "I'll Get You" which sells it for me is "there's going to be a time where I'm going to change your mind." As if John is trying to coerce his girlfriend into butt play. 😆
NOTHING is overlooked by beatles fans
Duh, but this is for new fans that are just getting into the band, what’s the trouble with trying to expose lesser known non-hits to causal fans?
Who are you saying overlooked these songs, each one you picked is an ace, if anyone has been aboard from the get go these songs are as important as any. In fact, the instant and continued meteoric success can be attributed to these early songs, they didn’t have weak tunes, it was all top material. They grabbed an audience and held on to them still gaining momentum, they weren’t crushing it because they were cute, they were writing music no one had heard and what they wanted to hear. It’s the music, it was always the music, if the music is great all the other stuff becomes important too. If the music is not great, no one cares. There is no such thing as an overlooked Beatles song, you chose 7 great songs, but it’s hard not to do that. Here’s an assignment, a song that’s under appreciated, Baby you’re a rich man. Do something on it, to me it’s top 10, rarely have I seen anything on it. I don’t think I know much about it at all as I think on it, except it’s art, Lennon art.
You must be the guy who colorizes old clips? Great work
I agree wholeheartedly that they are aces, love all these songs. I just know when I was getting into the Beatles around a decade ago, these were not songs that were often discussed by fans or by the community. I do like Baby You're A Rich Man,
I do colorize the clips on Carters Remasters, glad you like them.
Subtitles really take away from this....
I didn't overlook them
My favorite Beatles songs are by John Lennon. George too, but he was ignored way too much by the band. McCartney... meh.
Lennon for me too
I knew all these "obscure" songs. The only bad Beatle songs ever were Maxwell's Silver Hammer which just sucked and Benefit of Mr. Kite, also Happiness is a Warm Gun plus Rocky Racoon which was just "why" as in why even record this. No wonder Harrison got fed up and left.
@@charleslanphier8094 happiness is a warm gun is great
@@CartersWalrus Agreed. I love all of these songs, in fact.
@ I love probably 95% of all beatle songs, don't have some for the later stuff, but all that 1963-1965 rock stuff I like.
The title to this video is bad. These are all remembered and listened to songs by Beatles fans. None are over looked or never heard.
'All I Got to Do', and 'Not a Second Time' are a two of my favorite early Beatles songs.
'Its Only Love' is probably one of Lennon's worst Beatles songs.
Why do you have to be so difficult? obviously they are not overlooked by hardcore fans. But I would argue that songs like All I've Got To Do is absolutely overlooked by general music fans, especially when you compare it with All My Loving or She Loves You, songs that are NOT overlooked.
The title is provocative, something that is seemingly unheard of in media.
I'll Get You was the only Beatles tune released as both an A-side and a B-side in America. Screw political correctness.
I've heard and know all, none is really "underrated" - and Not A Second Time and It's Only Love are among John's weaker (weakest) efforts imo
I’m glad you know them all, most casual fans and non-Beatle fans have no idea what many of these songs are. That’s who the video is designed for, not hardcore fanatics, but newer fans trying to learn about some less known gems
Certainly, these songs are lesser known ones but I, and many others, have heard them countless times.
Thats good, I am glad you have, but I would argue they are still pretty overlooked by casual fans and non-beetle music fans, that is who the title and video is directed to especially, not hardcores that already know every Beatle release.
@@CartersWalrus I agree with your arguement and if the title of your video had been, 𝑂𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑙𝑜𝑜𝑘𝑒𝑑 𝐵𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑙𝑒 𝑇𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑘𝑠 𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑀𝑎𝑦 𝑁𝑜𝑡 𝐻𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑑 𝐵𝑒𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑒, I wouldn’t have felt compelled to write and submit my post.
Yes, no one has heard "I Get You" except millions of people.
Yeah, as i literally explain in the first few seconds. It’s still a somewhat hidden gem in my view.
Hardcores, of course, know it, but it’s not a hit that’s known by casual fans and non-Beatle fans, I am trying to expose these songs to those types of people.

PC needs to go away.
I agree Malcom
Can't. Some of my software won't run on a Mac. 😄
Funny comment at the beginning, with 'I'll Get You'. The narrator mentions it not being politically correct. Ha! Hey, kid.... Back in those days there was no narrative and limit on free speech. Please learn from this, that we were MORE FREE then. Think about it. :)
I’m not arguing against for political correctness, I like Lennon, so clearly I have no problem with his lyrics. my point was that yes, some assholes absolutely do try to cancel John Lennon and his lyrics regularly.
@@CartersWalrus Thanks for your reply. I meant no negative implication. I was just saying how different it was back then, that we had no 'political correctness' challenge. We're good. We're in agreement. Stay well!
@@jimb8830 sorry if I came across harsh, good wishes!
@@CartersWalrus This is a good feeling. How good open conversation can be.
5:01 - 'controversial lyrics like 'Run For Your Life'... - Well, what is so 'controversial' in those lyrics? Yes, they are dark, there are warnings & we could say - threats, but, it is a work of art, isn't it?
John borrowed two lines form Elvis' 'Baby, Let's Play House', so that song is also 'controversial'.
I love Run For You Life, I like the lyrics, but yes, they are controversial, especially today. You don't have to argue with me if I think it's art or not, I enjoy it. You don't have to agree with people not liking them, but people certainly have a problem with them.
WTF do you mean by pre rubber soul era? there's no such thing, anything love me do all the way to revolver is early beatles, especially rubber soul more than revolver wrf
I just didn’t feel like including it, because it’s widely considered the album in which the Beatles became more mature artists. wanted to focus on their less "serious" work.
Yeah, plus It's Only Love is on Rubber Soul, or at least the U.S. version.
@@skinovtheperineum1208 The US albums don't count.
Geez................................
@@CartersWalruswas just looking up the different tracks. I forgot how different they are. I agree. American version doesn’t count.
I know them all!
Tell Me Why is OUTSTANDING
Did you say : inspite of it's not politically correct ? For a song in the 'Sixties ? How old are you ? Haha
I’m not arguing if it is or if it’s not. I like the song and not a fan of woke culture generally.
My point was that people have tried to call out Lennon for his lyrics before, and despite that, I don’t care and enjoy his music/lyrics regardless.
But no, just act insulting towards me. Great guy Chris.
....Lennon didn't reach his PEAK, until Yoko added her priceless Kamikaze screaming while they played live onstage with John's hero, Chuck Berry !!...
If you listen to the track written by the Beatles on the bbc tapes and Star club tapes , and the Hamburg tapes you realize that John Lennon had lesser covers then most of the songs appearing on those albums !
I agree, but was trying to just focus on the studio tracks, matter of fact, I am writing a video as we speak that will highlight a number of those BBC only songs, songs like Monkey Business, Nothing Shaking, and Got To Find My Baby.
