And lyrics. George Harrison would one day point out that John & Paul didn't appreciate what they had in George, and think he was right. They were Lennon-McCartney, and they made no room for Harrison in that formula.
@@ARWest-bp4yb I wouldn't blame egos entirely. Lennon-McCartney was a concept, a brand that they wanted to be just like King-Goffin, or Leiber-Stoller. They couldn't stay Lennon-McCartney by letting George in, so he was on his own. He would bring in raw ideas to them only to be told to go back and work on it more, or be laughed at outright. It's interesting to imagine if they had let themselves step outside of the sacred Lennon-McCartney motif and just work as a band without worrying so much about who got credit for what.
One very important fact missing here which made this song a much better and a classic one was after the recording had ended producer George Martin added or dubbed the claves that he played himself which added such a beautiful and enjoyable beat to this lovely song. This song is one of my all time favorite songs by The Beatles. I love George Harrison's guitar playing and its amazing beautiful sound.
George’s riff was a nice addition but George Martin’s idea to modulate up a half step for the solo to the end of the song was brill and truly elevates the song’s musicality.
Absolute best songs of the movie. Another part in the movie that just set it off so quietly but perfectly was the beginning few notes being the center of the scene.
Happy birthday to you happy birthday to you happy birthday dear Paul McCartney happy birthday to you happy birthday Paul McCartney 82 years old today happy birthday Paul McCartney God bless Paul McCartney
Now I have to pull out the old vinyl and crank these songs. These were some of the first songs I can remember as a kid born i 63. Mom had the Hard Days Night Soundtrack. I remember watching The Beatles cartoons on Saturday morning, banging on pots and pans wearing 6 rings.
@@FreeSociety1 I don’t know how to say this without pissing someone off. “ classical “ feel. First off the solo is only George playing Paul’s melody of the song. Secondly it may sound classical as George was playing a Ramirez nylon - not gut - classical guitar. I was in no way - in my above comment putting George down, just merely pointing out the reality of how a song is arranged, and who should get credit for what. Without Paul’s song you have nothing . I like the intro, I like moving up a semitones for the solo ie. the melody of Paul’s song, and I like the high inversion arpeggios ,and ending on a major chord . Im surprised they didn’t use an interval D harmonic on the finale along with if I recall a D major chord.
Only the chord progression, melody, and words are the part of the songwriting process. Any guitar riffs, solos, or other instrumental parts added to enhance the song are not part of actual songwriting process. The guitar intro and solo are fantastic, but not worthy of a writing credit. Neither is Paul's baseline on Something. If you want to mention a Beatles song George should have gotten writing credits for, that would be Octopuses Garden. Ringo brought in the first verse, and George helped him finish the song by adding a bridge, and structuring the song out. Not because of the fantastic lead guitar he also added, but because he actually helped Ringo write the song. I believe he wanted Ringo to have the extra income, so he didn't take any credit, but you can see on the Get Back film that George really dove into helping Ringo when he introduced the song, and immediately started trying to come up with a bridge.
They would all pitch in ideas for each other's songs. George contributed lyrics to Eleanor Rigby, Paul came up with the guitar solo for Taxman, etc. Paul would be the first to tell you that's what a group is supposed to do, contribute ideas while not necessarily writing the song.
The first time I heard 'And I love Her' the intro by George ( of course I didn't know it was by George at the time ) I knew the song had to be great and it was GREAT...It can't help but be GREAT with that intro.. I love playing it on my acoustic back in the days..
Every Beatle fan needs to know that Ringo came up with the term "hard day's night". Everyone loved it so much that they decided to make it their movie title. But then one of the producers said that if that's the movie title then there should be a song with that title. So they asked John and Paul to make such a song. They said okay and wrote it that night and had it ready the next day. Their genius is just breath taking.

Definitely one of my favorites from Paul. It’s a lot of fun to play on acoustic too.
George was such an underrated guitarist. Paul admitted he couldn't play lead and wanted George to join him and John as the lead. How ironic that by 1969, during the "Let it Be" sessions, Paul is telling George how to play guitar. I don't blame George for wanting to leave The Beatles. He was always the youngest brother and that's all they saw him as. He was happier playing with other musicians who gave him the respect he deserved.
Everything happened so fast back then. Beatles made their first appearance on Ed Sullivan on Feb 9 and 2 1/2 weeks later they were recording Hard Days Night album. In the last 30 years music progression has been at a standstill
John's ballad "If I Fell" is superior to "And I Love Her." John wrote that solo (despite Paul's false claim that he wrote the intro, he did not...) and we have John's solos home demo with the song composed and complete in an entirely different key. Paul's contribution to that song was to change the key to make it suitable for two-part harmony (that he arranged too): so, that's an arranging credit, not songwriting credit; but, it is, like George's guitar part in "And I Love Her," a vital factor in the songs success.
@@pupface there are two long audio interview segments that circulate , not transcribed in the book “All We Saying” by David Sheff, where John discusses this song and he mentions Paul arranging the harmonies. John wrote it in a different key on acoustic guitar that made it impossible for him to sing…
At 9:54, Paul is quoted, "The song, which is in F-major or D-minor, ends on a bright D-major chord, providing a lovely, pleasing resolution." This particular chord ending is called a "Picardy third" and was used by Haydn, Mozart and others. I wonder if George Martin suggested it due to his familiarity with classic musical endings.
George deserved a lot more credit than he got, but in the end he focused more on God and his Guru, Paramahansa Yogananda. He left this earth peacefully, unlike John.
How can you make a very good article but not include the audio of the song even just for the specific portions you delved on. It would have been more effective in getting the message accross to us fans.
Yes, George used a nylon string guitar, which was unusual but was perfect for this song. For me it’s a major element in this beautiful song. Also, I wasn’t a Beatles fan until I saw A Hard Day’s Night in 1964, and this song was a major part of that experience. That plus If I Fell sealed my fate as a Beatles fan.
Huh?? If referring to "A Hard Day's Night", it was a Beatles album, not a John Lennon album. If referring to "And I Love Her", that was mostly, if not all, written by Paul song>
George's solo on his nylon-string classical guitar was the most memorable part of the song to me, even more so than his intro hook, and more so than the lyrics. He certainly should have received writing credit for this one.
@@jacquescousteau217 Don't be ridiculous. Paul has said that George's riff and solo were what saved the song from being just a boring repetitive throwaway.

Paul should have given George's credit. I want to have the benefit of doubt of him being naive and young. Not a selfish greedy. The deal was with John. Would he give up his bit? I don't think so.
Paul did more work for George's songs than any other Beatle. Paul's bass line and harmonies on Something were outstanding. No credit for Paul. I hope George wasn't being selfish and greedy.
@@braemtes23 crap comparison. Paul's bass on Something does not make the song like what George contributed in And I love her. It seems you did not watch the video..
@@michaelharrington75in today’s world of a dozen writers, anyone who contributed something like Harrison’s intro would be credited. A bass line? Not unless it changes the melody.
I think this song was one of the tracks that woke up the Beatles adult detractors to the value of their songwriting and musicianship. Before that it was easy for adults at that time to fob off the Beatles as a quick fad. When "And I Love Her" got play on the radio, they had to think twice. It's a fine piece of music.
This is a excellent doc , it shows that even though John & Paul wrote most of the songs , it was other people that helped them to change the melodic structure of each song to make it better and to say producer George Martin was not a 5th Beatle is a under statement because without him , there would be no great ipiano/guitar intro in Hard Days Night and no middle bridge in "And I Love Her" and thats just the few songs that we are aware of , there are probably many more and lets not forget publisher Dick James , yes , he ripped them off in the money publishing but with his greed his objective was to make a great song in "And I Love Her" and proabaly other songs , a greedy man needs to get it right too or they won't make money , watch the video and see what I mean.
People claiming George should get a co write for the intro, and I imagine some will also claim it’s the arpeggios. I’m sorry, but Paul would have come up with something . If George wrote the entire bridge I would agree, but for an intro, no way …
Good thing George came up with those four notes! I'm sure Paul would have been stuck for ideas, and then trashed the song as no good! Paul's like that, can't come up with ideas. I mean these four notes..... they shine beyond any Beatles musical passage.... the intro to Strawberry Fields is an utter joke in comparison.... George was a musical genius to come up with those four perfect notes when the rest of that dull creative team was stumped for ideas. What would they have done without the great Mr. Harrison? He was always there to guide his lesser compatriots. Now tell us the story about George's solo on Michelle.
George Martin was obviously the most knowledgeable Beatle who was able to see the potential of their crude material. He added nuance and subtlety that the Beatles themselves would be incapable of without his help.
"And I Love Her" has a great melody, chord progressions and much more, but there is some sloppy lyric writing. Sorry Paul. The words start out being sung in third person for the first two verses and then suddenly switches to first person at "As long as I have YOU near me." And he sings the phrase, "A love like ours will never die" and then later sings "I know this love of mine will never die." It's redundant and he could have done better. Still a wonderful song overall.
George Martin wrote the solo on the piano then taught it to Harrison. Then Martin set the tape recorder to half speed so that Harrison could get his fingers around the notes.
After watching this excellent video, I'm no longer sure I'm remembering correctly a quote of George Martin's that I heard or read at least 30 years ago. What I mean is since he had a 'part' in the making of the song, then why would he necessarily say this? Don't now remember if he supposedly said this back in the day, or much later referring to all time. The GM quote as best I remember - "That song is the best one the band has ever done."
It really bothers me when the hired person pretends to know what was going on back in the beginning. Will Paul's life ever be publicly remembered? It's so sad he's been erased. Poor Billy hasn't existed publicly either. His part was needed but enough is enough. He needs to be respected for keeping the band from falling apart so soon after they took over the music sceen. Both men need to be cherished.
some channels get blocked for copyright; others mysteriously don't. But how about you type song into the search bar at top and open in another tab....you know...multitask?
Great, Eduardo! So, Paul saved a simple country song from George (Something), putting on it one of the most beautiful basslines in a Beatle song! Anyway, that's the reason why they were a group, no?
Totally disagree. A very basic, simple song, clunky and unsophisticated. with a simple intro that is being elevated because everything by the Beatles is mined into oblivion.
Thank you. I'm really tired of this absurd narrative nowadays that George was some kind of uncredited equal. I mean, he was great and his contributions were important, but they just don't compare to everything John and Paul brought to the table.

@@ARWest-bp4yb You are most probably right about that: how could The Biggest Band have not sprouted egos to match?
I've always thought of this song as being in a Bosa Nova style, which makes it stand out from the rest of their work.
Not bossa nova, it´s a bolero.
@@mariaalejandra2913 Technically, it's 4/4 with a bossa nova feel.

This song is one of my all time favorite songs by The Beatles. I love George Harrison's guitar playing and its amazing beautiful sound.
I've seen the claves attributed to either George Harrison or Ringo, but never George Martin.
George also created the four note riff to the closing song on the album, 'I'll Be Back'.
That was basically an arpeggio. It sounded great, though.
I did not know that! It adds a lot to the song.
I thought John came up with it since he used his guitar for it
George’s riff was a nice addition but George Martin’s idea to modulate up a half step for the solo to the end of the song was brill and truly elevates the song’s musicality.
George's riff is key to the whole song as Paul said himself.
George's guitar makes the song for me
A Hard Days Night has 2 of the best ballads they have ever come up with.. Paul's "And I Love Her" and John's "If I Fell"
Absolute best songs of the movie. Another part in the movie that just set it off so quietly but perfectly was the beginning few notes being the center of the scene.

That's strange. I hear "Ring of Fire" by Johnny Cash

Too bad you cant play the damn song
some channels get blocked for copyright; others mysteriously don't.
But how about you type song into the search bar at top and open in another tab....you know...multitask?
And then, Paul saved George's Taxman.
Great, Eduardo! So, Paul saved a simple country song from George (Something), putting on it one of the most beautiful basslines in a Beatle song! Anyway, that's the reason why they were a group, no?
the fact : george is better without the beatles... the beatles is nothing without george
Exactly 👍
Totally disagree. A very basic, simple song, clunky and unsophisticated. with a simple intro that is being elevated because everything by the Beatles is mined into oblivion.
False It would have stood up without the riff It may have even been better
Rubbish, the riff makes the song.
So have some people play it. Without the riff. Record it . Then decide.
Thank you. I'm really tired of this absurd narrative nowadays that George was some kind of uncredited equal. I mean, he was great and his contributions were important, but they just don't compare to everything John and Paul brought to the table.
@@DarkEyedJunko John + Paul brought the cakes. George put the frosting on the tops. Ringo made the rest fall into place.
IMHO
