Love the Beatles, still think you should do The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly... Why are they running after them? Well this was the height of Beatlemania, and this was why the Beatles stopped touring, the audience wasn't listening any more, they just screamed.
I saw this movie when it first came out and my friends brother was the manager of the local movie theater, for my friends birthday we saw this film and we sat in the first row and the older girls next to me were on their knees crying, shouting and pulling their hair!. I was 9 and didnt quite know what to make of all that......
In the spring of 1964, the group held down all five spots at the top of the Billboard pop chart, with five different songs. No artist did that before, or since.
My older 13-year-old sister was The Big Beatles Fan in the family. My dad took the family to the local movie drive-in, and we saw the film from the back of the pickup bed, tailgate down, absolutely memorably times. The film was directed by American Richard Lester, though there were earlier Rock n' Roll films, this film representation was a precedent to popular music in film and tv afterwards. :)
Such a simple song, yet brilliant. The guitar work, drumming, bass, and the amazing harmonies. The Beatles can get more with a single chord than most bands with all the tech they throw at it.
Beatlemania was real. Our best effort to outdo the boys from across the pond during that time was the Beach Boys. It wasn't uncommon for any or all of them to have their shirts ripped off just trying to get to their limos after a concert. 🤣
"Why are they running?" I'm reminded of an episode of the Dick Van Dyke Show (from 1965) which dealt with this theme. The musicians were played by the singing duo Chad and Jeremy (A Summer Song, Yesterday's Gone, Can't Get Used To Losing You). Note: I actually remember these songs from 60 years ago, my God but I'm old.
All those girls chasing them came to be known as Beatlemania. In fact when they came to the U.S. The airport was overrun with tens of thousands of girls lining the terminal roof , the arrival lounge out on the Tarmac, They lined the road leaving the airport and going to their hotel where they had one whole floor reserved for them and the floor above and below were also reserved and filled with security.
according to sources - the movie's producers wanted new music for this filming - so John and Paul wrote this songs during breaks from filming .... amazing ...
When they finally came up for a title for this film, based on a phrase Ringo said after drinking at the London Clubs before Filming one day, "It's been a hard day's night", they then need a Title Song for it. John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote the whole song OVERNIGHT. And sang it to the director the next day, the words on thr back of a match stick book...this is Only a Small example of the Real Girls chasing them in real life in 1963- 65.....
You are watching the invention of MTV. This is where music videos came from essentially. Their movies were actually long extended full album music videos. The Beatles legendary!. So creative and so ahead of their time!
I always loved the cowbell in that song. To live in that time, as I did, and witness the craziness of Beatlemania was a very unique experience. I cannot think of any other artist who caused such a stir except for Elvis Presley. And even he didn't have the following that the Beatles did. Elvis was mainly idolized by girls. Teenage boys and girls were hit by Beatlemania. It was a completely different world. I really liked the fashion. It was called the Mod look. I wish that I could go back and live it again.
Title tune to the first movie, directed by Richard Lester. Ringo supposedly came up with the title. Liverpudlian Alun Owen wrote the screenplay. Wilfrid Brambell played Paul's grandfather. It is one of John Lennon's tough, hard-driving love ballads. The Beatlemania period at its height.
Check out the opening chord. That chord is a result of four instruments playing different parts together. The Beatles wanted the opening to be something totally unique and fresh. So they came up with this chord which puzzeled musicians for decades. Oh, and the song itself was written upon request from the film producer. The title had to be the tite of the movie - Hard Days Night. The next day John and Paul came in with the song we just listened to.
The fans chasing The Beatles everywhere is actually a tamed down version of what it was really like for them. The teenaged girls screamed non-stop until they fainted by the scores whenever The Beatles made an appearance. Hordes of police were required to hold back the fans, who would still break through the blockades and run after them. At a Beatles concert, the only audible sound was that of tens of thousands of teenage girls screaming at the top of their lungs for the entire time they were on the stage. That's why it was called BEATLEMANIA!!
WHY do so many people who comment on You Tube refer to the fainting, screaming, crying female fans as "WOMEN" It wasn' t WOMEN (which then was any female OVER 21 and UP) it was us teenage GIRLS, and girls under the age of 12, even as young as 7!!! WOMEN did not respond to the Beatles that way. MOST adult women and men, didn't approve or like the Beatles at that time and were appalled by their teen and younger daughters (and sons) who were crazy over the Beatles . I was one of those screaming fans back in 1964 when I was 16/17 years old. LOL ( I am STILL a die hard fan today, and always WILL be)
Paul McCartney was once asked if the girls' screams ever bothered him, especially in concert in which the screams would drown out an airplane flying overhead! He said not at all. To him, it was the female equivalent of guys cheering on their favorite soccer team: "YEAAAAH!!!" Anyway, great reaction! The entire Hard Day's Night movie is a fun movie to watch.
Why were they chasing after them? They were The Beatles! The title of the film was changed at the last minute and John wrote this song basically overnight.
This is actually a very toned down version of Beatlemania. In their concerts the screaming was so loud they couldn't hear each other. You should check out Shea Stadium. 55,600 girls screaming, some fainting, and their performance was still great. When they landed in Australia, 300,000 fans were waiting for them. They were realistically never out in public being chased. They were quickly taken to their hotels, hoping the police could keep everyone back so they weren't crushed. They had their own floor at the hotel. But everyone always wanted a part of them. It got to a point where I've read accounts from at least 2 of them that they had to meet in the bathroom to get privacy to talk. So, toned down movie version. It's still fun, though.
The film gives the moviegoers a slight taste of “Beatlemania” that engulfed them and the world at the time their popularity skyrocketed. I can’t imagine having to run for your life everywhere you go and riding in secret for years. Imagine a huge global sized hurricane and in the middle where it’s calm are 4 young men. The rest of the world is going bananas. It all became so much that John Lennon wrote the song ‘Help’. Listen to the song and lyrics. He’s LITERALLY asking for help because it’s all too much.
Had a question you might be able to answer being an Opera Singer. Do you know the opera that was used in this movie during the interruption of an opera by Pauls' Grandfather on the stage with the TV director (Victor Spinetti)? looking in horror!! Also, showing my age here, Norm, the manager, was trying to open a carton of milk(not a taco) with his teeth that they used to sell in vending machines. Great job! Love this!!
Why are they running after them? They are The Beatles, the greatest pop/rock group ever. Evidence: The Beatles existed for only 7 years, 1963-1970. Yet they have sold more records than any group or individual, some of whom have been recording for 35-60 years. 60 years? Rolling Stones: 1962-2024 is 62 years, and still recording and touring.
They're running after them because Beatlemania was in full swing and the women fans absolutely adored them. No different from the groupies today - but much bigger.
Group were put in a very dangerous situation in the Philippines in 1966 when Ferdinand Marcos withdrew concert security due to a perceived slight. In friendlier incidents, the band were mobbed by fans elsewhere; "The Beatles In Cleveland" is a good read, with details of the notorious August 1966 Municipal Stadium near-riot. Group began to hate touring, and gave it up for the recording studio at the end of that year.
I was at BOTH CLEVELAND Beatles' concerts on Sept. 15, 1964 when I was 17, and again on Aug 14, 1966 when I was 19. "The Beatles in Cleveland" book by David Schwensen covers BOTH Cleveland concerts.......BOTH concerts were stopped, (the 1964 one in Cleveland's Public Auditorium and 1966 as you said in Cleveland Municipal Stadium.), by officials because of the fans reactions. After 15 to 20 minutes the Beatles were allowed to complete the show, but were removed from the stage while the "officials" tried to settle things down. They didn't come here to Cleveland during their 1965 tour because our MAYOR BANNED them after the incident at the 1964 concert.
It was supposed to be Paul's granddad, played by Wilfred Brambell, who at the time, was the star of the British sit-com "STEPTOE AND SON." Soon after in the '70s the AMERICAN sit-com "SANFORD and SON" starring Redd Foxx, was based on the British "Steptoe and Son."
At the very beginning George trips and falls leaving Paul or Ringo to trip over him lol not scripted left in the movie. You can see John laughing as they continue to run lol.
See the whole movie, not autobiographical, but semi-autobiographical. Not a parody like Spinal Tap, but played for laughs. After the band broke up, John had a saying, "I got tired of being Elvis Beatle" As big or bigger than Elvis or Michael Jackson. They quite touring early. Not the same after the break-up
Beatles Fans. especially Women and Teens went nuts over them, Crying, screaming, passing out etc. My Dad took my 2 Older Brothers to a Concert in Toronto, which wasn't Cheap and when he got home, he was Mad, as The Fanatics just screamed through the whole concert, basically drowning out the Show, this was in 1965
NOT "women" Just us teenage girls, and preteen girls and some female children. We weren't considered "women" then until we reached the age of 21. Most ADULT WOMEN would not be screaming, crying and running after the Beatles. I was 16/17 in 1964 and was (and still AM at 77 now) a die hard Beatles fan.
"Beatlemania" was a phenomenal thing for the foursome as well. After they got signed to make recordings, with Brian Epstein becoming their manager they did a couple of gigs as usual, and all of sudden under Epsteins' guidance, they became a "thing". They had been four young musicians from working class backgrounds playing wherever they could..and all of a sudden, they were hobnobbing with royalty, models, movie stars.., it was like a non stop roller coaster ride.
TH-cam check out Norwegian Wood that's all John check out The Supremes Greatest Hits which they had many I think you'd really like love child by The Supremes
And.The blonde they cut to many times during the concert IS BEATLEMANIA. She is physically exhausted and emotionally spent. She keeps saying "John", but no sound comes out, lost in her own world. Makes me cry every time. Who is she? What was she feeling? How did that experience affect her life?
we have a lot in common. i'm a juiliard trained debt collector. any one who refuses to pay juilliard trained opera singers - i break their legs. "a hard day's night" is a unique r&r film in many ways. its the first r&r movie, besides elvis films, where the performers were allowed actual dialogue. they didn't share the screen with other r&r acts. and, unlike elvis, they basically played themsewlves where elvis played fictional characters. you'll notice the word "beatles" is NEVER mentioned in the film. they're never called the beatles until the final concert scene where "the beatles" is blazoned in lights behind them. richard lester, the director, was an american who directed a couple of comedy shorts for the british comedy troup "the goons." which, coincidentally, george martin, the beatles record producer, produced comedy albums for the goons before he met the beatles. lester went on to direct the beatles' 2nd film "help!" the following year, in 1966 lester directed the film based on the broadway musical comedy "a funny thing happened on the way to the forum." it includes the same fresh and silly sight gags lester used in his beatles' films. ITS AN EXCELLENT FILM! lester went on to direct what's considered by critics to be the 2 BEST musketeer films that are classics in their own right. "the three musketeers" (1973) and its sequel "the four musketeers" (1974). both with all-star casts and full of humor and suspense. thanks for the video.
Google: Can u get Taco Bell in the UK? Taco Bell was founded in California in 1962, and the first British restaurant opened in 2010. Today there are approximately 30 Taco Bell takeaways across the UK, with many more coming soon. So no not a Taco, more likely a pre-packaged sandwich. How many Indian restaurants are there in the UK? There are conflicting figures on exactly how many Indian restaurants (most of which are Bangladeshi-owned) there are in the UK but most suggest they have dropped from about 12,000 in 2011 to about 8,000 today.4 Jun 2023 Why are there so many Indian restaurants in UK? When the British people who had lived in India during the 18th and 19th centuries returned home, they missed the food. And many brought their Indian cooks with them to Britain. New recipes, spices and food combinations were therefore introduced to the UK.
Maggie - how on Earth are you able to react to Beatles songs without getting blocked? Rick Beato can't even play a 15 second clip of a Beatles song while analyzing the music theory behind it and explaining how to play the guitar part.

If you lived during Beatlemania, you would understand. 60 years later the Beatles are still the greatest group of all time
So true.
"Why are they chasing them like that?"
Welcome to Beatlemania!
I saw this movie when it first came out and my friends brother was the manager of the local movie theater, for my friends birthday we saw this film and we sat in the first row and the older girls next to me were on their knees crying, shouting and pulling their hair!. I was 9 and didnt quite know what to make of all that......
I'm the same age Paul McCartney and I didn't understand the insanity either.
😂😂😂 Another typical day with Beatle fans. It wasn’t called Beatlemania for nothing.
I was 10 and the girls were screaming so loud you almost couldn't here the music.
The fans did chase them like this.
Those were actual fans, not actors.
They certainly did...I think if the crowd got ahold of them they would not have come out alive!
Like hell they didn’t
@@MsAppassionata You are correct, it was not staged. I will never forget seeing the Beatles in concert in 1965. they are in a category by themselves.
Those sneaky girls also snuck into their hotel rooms too.
In the spring of 1964, the group held down all five spots at the top of the Billboard pop chart, with five different songs. No artist did that before, or since.
They broke a lot of records in their time together.
They also held the top two album spots at the same time.
I was 14 when I saw The film. Started a band, I had to😊, 60 years later I am still in a band. Thank you The Beatles❤️🎸
Taylor Swift has done even better since that. Her last album had all of the top 14 spots on Billboard and the album before had all top 10.
@@jonathanhenderson9422 Did she have five different songs in the top five singles chart at the same time?
Great melodies last forever. Outstanding vocals pitched in the male tenor range. Outstanding guitar solo.
Actually It Was Ringo Who Came Up With The Title Of The Film!

Same here, Maggie. I grew up in the 70s-80s hearing them in my parent’s house. I started listening to them actively in my early twenties and still do.
Such a simple song, yet brilliant. The guitar work, drumming, bass, and the amazing harmonies. The Beatles can get more with a single chord than most bands with all the tech they throw at it.
Not simple to sing in that original key! High pitched voices in the male register.
Another Beatles song named after a Ringo-ism. Love the stuff from that era.Thank you Roy! Thank you Maggie!
Can you imagine your life with this level of fame? This video is only a slight exaggeration of how it was for them
The Greatest rock song ever recorded,,,
You should watch the movie now to see a day in the life of Beatlemania.

It’s like this song has a double vocal lead, whatever it’s called, I love it.

That’s Beatlemania that’s how it was
You talked right over the most famous opening note in musical history.
As one who grew up in that era, yes! that's really the way it was during the Beatlemania years!
This is a fun movie still today. Music is great.
Cover version by Peter Sellers as Laurence Olivier is gold!

You are watching the invention of MTV. This is where music videos came from essentially. Their movies were actually long extended full album music videos. The Beatles legendary!. So creative and so ahead of their time!
i saw the beatles in 1966 in las vegas....the girls were so loud you couldn't hear the beatles...it was that way in every concert back then
You should never underestimate the power of Beatlemania. It was an explosion. Every one, except our parents, loved them.
This was what it was like for the Beatles for real. They had to be protected from the fans..❤
I always loved the cowbell in that song. To live in that time, as I did, and witness the craziness of Beatlemania was a very unique experience.

Look at the footage of when they 1st went to America. It was unbelievable. 😊❤
Nearly EVERYBODY..even trained OPERA SINGERS acknowledge the GREATNESS of the BEATLES!
This reminds me of the drive-in theatre. And those tinny little speakers.
Title tune to the first movie, directed by Richard Lester. Ringo supposedly came up with the title. Liverpudlian Alun Owen wrote the screenplay. Wilfrid Brambell played Paul's grandfather. It is one of John Lennon's tough, hard-driving love ballads. The Beatlemania period at its height.
That’s Paul on the middle eight’s…❤

React to Early Beatles live and watch the girls. This.was aglobal phenomenon.
There were a few situations Paul said they were close to being crushed. They also spent most of their early years in hotel rooms for safety sake
Paul McCartney was once asked if the girls' screams ever bothered him, especially in concert in which the screams would drown out an airplane flying overhead! He said not at all. To him, it was the female equivalent of guys cheering on their favorite soccer team: "YEAAAAH!!!"
Anyway, great reaction! The entire Hard Day's Night movie is a fun movie to watch.
It was called Beatlemania
This is the opening of the film
Why were they chasing after them? They were The Beatles! The title of the film was changed at the last minute and John wrote this song basically overnight.
I love this movie
when music had real words, rythem and not just screaming...always a soft sound....
This is actually a very toned down version of Beatlemania. In their concerts the screaming was so loud they couldn't hear each other. You should check out Shea Stadium. 55,600 girls screaming, some fainting, and their performance was still great. When they landed in Australia, 300,000 fans were waiting for them.

So, toned down movie version. It's still fun, though.
watch the movie and everything will be clear to u
The film gives the moviegoers a slight taste of “Beatlemania” that engulfed them and the world at the time their popularity skyrocketed. I can’t imagine having to run for your life everywhere you go and riding in secret for years.

It all became so much that John Lennon wrote the song ‘Help’. Listen to the song and lyrics. He’s LITERALLY asking for help because it’s all too much.
before beatlemania there was cliff richard and the shadows, just like that
The director Richard Lester really didn't need to tell them to act insane when they saw them 😅
Although billed here as the “trailer”; this actually was how the movie begins.
That was Beatlemania, as it was called. And the video only slightly exaggerates what life was like for them in the mid '60s.
I remember 35 years ago getting chased on by only two toddlers.That was exhausting. Thank you dear Lord for anonymity.
🤣🤣🙃
The video was taken directly from the movie..."A hard days night"
Oh. 🙁 I thought at last someone was reacting to the film! Ah well. Nice to see this excerpt anyway 🙂

Hello Maggie, I don't remember ever seeing the movie for this.
I would say it's probably the best of their movies, still silly but worth watching.
I wanted you to continue to watch the rest of the film. "Hey! Pardon me for asking, but who's that little old man?"
Why are they running after them? They are The Beatles, the greatest pop/rock group ever.
Evidence: The Beatles existed for only 7 years, 1963-1970.
Yet they have sold more records than any group or individual, some of whom have been recording for 35-60 years.
60 years? Rolling Stones: 1962-2024 is 62 years, and still recording and touring.
They're running after them because Beatlemania was in full swing and the women fans absolutely adored them. No different from the groupies today - but much bigger.
Good job Maggie!!!🔥Please check Candlemass-The edge of heaven🙂Greating from Poland.
This is just the start of Beatlemania.
Beatlemania!!!!!!!
you know the Beatles are Ozzy Osborn's favorite band, and was the reason he got into music.
Watch the documentary “You can’t do that: The making of A hard days night”

Group were put in a very dangerous situation in the Philippines in 1966 when Ferdinand Marcos withdrew concert security due to a perceived slight.

They didn't come here to Cleveland during their 1965 tour because our MAYOR BANNED them after the incident at the 1964 concert.

NOT "women" Just us teenage girls, and preteen girls and some female children. We weren't considered "women" then until we reached the age of 21.

How did you do it?????
They literally wrote this at the last fucking minute - to provide the film with a title. Just process that.
Zero exaggerations. The screaming girls forced this band in to the studio, for at least 5 years.

we have a lot in common. i'm a juiliard trained debt collector. any one who refuses to pay juilliard trained opera singers - i break their legs.
"a hard day's night" is a unique r&r film in many ways. its the first r&r movie, besides elvis films, where the performers were allowed actual dialogue. they didn't share the screen with other r&r acts. and, unlike elvis, they basically played themsewlves where elvis played fictional characters. you'll notice the word "beatles" is NEVER mentioned in the film. they're never called the beatles until the final concert scene where "the beatles" is blazoned in lights behind them.
richard lester, the director, was an american who directed a couple of comedy shorts for the british comedy troup "the goons." which, coincidentally, george martin, the beatles record producer, produced comedy albums for the goons before he met the beatles. lester went on to direct the beatles' 2nd film "help!" the following year, in 1966 lester directed the film based on the broadway musical comedy "a funny thing happened on the way to the forum." it includes the same fresh and silly sight gags lester used in his beatles' films. ITS AN EXCELLENT FILM!
lester went on to direct what's considered by critics to be the 2 BEST musketeer films that are classics in their own right. "the three musketeers" (1973) and its sequel "the four musketeers" (1974). both with all-star casts and full of humor and suspense. thanks for the video.
btw, that isn't the trailer. its the opening credit sequence.

Why are there so many Indian restaurants in UK?
When the British people who had lived in India during the 18th and 19th centuries returned home, they missed the food. And many brought their Indian cooks with them to Britain. New recipes, spices and food combinations were therefore introduced to the UK.
The whole movie is crazy. They were compared favorably to the Marx Brothers.
Couldnt hide in a phone both now, superman would be out of luck to.....
Maggie - how on Earth are you able to react to Beatles songs without getting blocked? Rick Beato can't even play a 15 second clip of a Beatles song while analyzing the music theory behind it and explaining how to play the guitar part.
