THAT was so sweet. I wish I had cool parents back then. My dad's idea of music was Mitch Miller. TORTURE. AND it gets worse. He insisted on my getting a crew cut EVERY TIME he took me to the barber shop !!

My dad had a band in the 60s & 70s & covered many of the Beatles songs our house was always filled with Music. John Lennon was 6mths younger than my dad & both died in 1980. My dad died of Leukaemia 6wks short of his bday 😢. My gran always called me & my brother Paul & Ringo 😊. I have always followed * had great admiration for Paul McCartney 😊.
To those who say this is no good, remember that they honed their craft and exploded in popularity as a live act. For a group of young guys who couldn't hear themselves over the screaming and lacking the technology we have now, they were, and remain, the best ever. Listen again!
the screaming was a media creation.. those chewing gum girls are screaming.. because they paid for the privilege 🙄.. and think... well.. maybe thinking didn't have much to do with it
the Jefferson Airplane had a song about My Plastic Fantastic Lover... with the words all the red tape and mechanical rape... of the TV programmed race... there's only one "race" on our little sphere.. fer sure... it's a song about all of us
I was 12 in 1964. I was one of those screaming girls. I couldn't get enough of The Beatles. It wasn't just that they were so cute and British. My friends and I knew there was something new in this music - something that was changing us. It was all about the music. Every song, every word, every harmony, every rhythm-- we were hooked. I was lucky to see them at Shea Stadium in NY in Aug 65, I was 13. I'm here in 2024 at age 72. The Beatles were a phenomenon of their time. And yet, timeless.
2023: They changed my life. I started playing drums in 1964 because of them. I'm 71 years old now and I still play. Beatles music was some of the best music ever made. Thanks for posting this piece of musical history.
The perfect storm. Boomers (millions of them) are young teenagers in 1964 looking for the music of their generation. They found it. Others came along. Lots of them. But, to those who were in their early teens in 1964 (in their 70’s now), The Beatles are the gold standard. Always #1.
Was 10 when saw The Beatles on Sullivan that fateful Sunday night singing: Yeah Yeah Yeah. I knew the time's they were a-changin. It's been so awesome to be part of a generation with the best musical soundtracks to our lives... no matter what. Many blessings ya'll. ❤❤❤
There will never be a band that will have such impact as these guys. It was fun growing up with Beatlesmania. I went and saw them in the first visit to the states. It was grand.
My thoughts exactly. I remember Beatle mania, i was right in the middle of all that. Those of us who grew up with their music were so very lucky. The Beatles were more than just a band , they were a part of us . Not one, not any band wil ever come close !
We are so lucky. I am only a teenager but I am so glad that I have been able to grow up with their music. I would give anything to have seen them live or have lived during Beatlmania. No band will have such a big impact on music and they will be remembered for centuries to come!
@@tjvanpopta RIDICULOUS! What about The Monkeys? The Ruttles? The Incredible String Band? The Bottles? All superb songwriters, musicians, performers, personalities, award winning humanitarians -- and all-round jolly good fellows to boot!
I begged my dad to buy me meet the Beatles when I was in third grade and he did. I played This Album over and over and over actually I still have it❤❤❤
In 1964, radio was king for record sales. Everybody had a TV and watched Ed Sullivan on Sunday nights. The Boomers were in their early teens. The Beatles were great. Perfect storm.
That Sunday evening in Feb 1964, on the Ed Sullivan show. You would have had to been there, to understand the impact the Beatles had on the world that night.
I was biking from Westminster over the Thames past Parliament to Wembley Stadium in 2014 on a visit to London. When my bike tires passed over the zebra crossing at Abbey Road, I got chills. When I listen to this song, I know why.
One of the most underrated drummers in the history of Rock and Roll: Ringo Star! Never too little, never too much, never too late, always EXACTLY on the beat.
I can't stand when people tell me that they don't think Ringo was any good. If it wasn't for Ringo The Beatles wouldn't have had that bright splashing sound that he provided. He's right on the beat just like you said, and the backbeat with a little delay because he played backwards. Which made it even cooler!
So very true . I would also say.. although Ringo gets some guff.. John and Paul were a bit rushed at the beginning.. Ringo kept wonderful timing throughout.. truer to the original recorded track...
This is just one of the best songs ever by The Fab Four...I have never heard this version before, but I feel much better now than before I started listening to it...
Great song, great harmonies and chord progressions ever written, plus Ringo's tasteful take on the drums make this one of the Beatles loveliest heart breaker songs. The story of a boy contemplating leaving his girl for a new love. Heart breaking for him, his former love and even the new girl who knows their relationship would begin under a cloud, but only "IF".
I always interpreted it as if he's already been dumped by a girlfriend, and now he's found someone else but doesn't want to get his heart broken again and so wants to secure her commitment to their relationship from the very start more than the one who dumped him. He's also relishing the thought that the one who broke his heart will cry when she realizes what she gave up.
Beyond the song being incredible including the great melody and harmony, the fact that for the most part they pulled it off to the point where it was like listening to the record , despite the crappy technology shows the amazing once in a lifetime talent
Back in the eighties , we lived in Michigan City. My wife had to go to Indianapolis for business. I drove her there. We got a hotel. The next morning I drove her to her appointment. I did not know what to do. Then I remembered a book I received for Christmas. It was a book about The Beatles 1964 tour. I remembered the pictures from the Indianapolis show. So I drove to where the theater was. There was no one around so I just walked in. I recognized it right away. I could tell from the pictures where the stage was. I could also see where The Beatles stood.
What can one say!!?? There is no words that describe Their talent, their fame, their music. The absolute Greatest band in all creation! Everything they touch turned to gold! THEY are GOLD! Anyone who was around when they 1st came out must feel as I do. It was the MOST amazing time in history! They are a phenomenon! The whole world shook with the're Fame! It seems they could not make an album or even a song that didn't turn instantly to gold!
I got to see the Beatles at Dodger Stadium in the late 60's we had a lot of fun that night I will never forget that day, I still love the Beatles, I've been to the Beatle Love show in Vegas about five times it's great. We have three or four generations of Beatle fans in our family.❤😊
Rare is an understatement. Thank you for that. I was lucky enough to see The Beatles in Atlantic City NJ Convention Hall. I was 11 years old, and my father took me. Coolest dad in the world!
This is a great live version of this song. I was disappointed that it was not included on The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl. I don’t care that its not perfect. Ringo is fantastic with his crash cymbal, and the vocals are incredible. It’s really amazing that they could not hear themselves to well. Thanks for posting
@@chipgaasche4933 yeah I know that sounds funny, but I love the way he emphasizes the beginning of the last verse with the crash. It’s just one of those little things I always found exciting in some rock and roll songs. Like a little mistake .
@@gns423 He's not just emphasizing it with a crash, he's vamping on it and going to town on it to elevate the ending into a bit more rocking feel. I heard it just now and was like WHOA, awesome change.
The word disappointed should never come up when You're talking about the Beatles . We all should be grateful to have the opportunity to listen to the greatest of all
holy fuck, this is weird... the idea of them playing such a tender, vulnerable and compared to their usual live set, a complicated song. it’s incredible isn’t it? i love how Lennon sings it, his accent is particularly heavy and Paul’s harmony with him is even cooler. side note: the intro of the track is particularly sexy on this version.
I agree. This is really what the world was missing after the Beatles broke up. Lennon and McCartney singing into the same mic. Theres something special about it, they bring out the best in each-other.
0:28 Did John say "If I Fell...Over?" He often kidded around introducing songs for example, introducing Paul singing "All My Luggage" or the next song is "I Wanna Hold Your Gland."
This is in my top tier of great Beatles songs that to my recollection never made it on to a greatest hits album, Red, Blue, Beatles 1, etc. An absolutely beautiful, vintage song, and very difficult to perform, given their circumstances. As a side note, there is something special when John and Paul shared a mike.
For a brief period of time all the stars aligned and brought these two together. After all these years I marvel when I see them actually performing together side by side. Even more remarkable is seeing Paul, at age 80, still performing for 2 hours in a stadium show. If John had lived I'm sure we would have seen them together again. Each is great in his own right, but together they become a new and greater entity. Long live The Beatles.
In my estimation, this song is a musical and vocal masterpiece. If you listen to the two voices independently, you will notice what I mean. This is what makes this song absolutely amazing.
Agreed, a masterful example of melody and harmony. In addition, the jingle jangle of the Rickenbacker guitars (especially the 12 string) along with the full and rich sounding Hofner bass give it an unmistakable charm. This is the sound that best identifies the early Beatles.
@@jimdep6542 The early Beatles were, of course, influenced by the music titans of their youth. Elvis, Carl Perkins, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Roy Orbison, others, and yes, the harmonizing Everly Brothers (I watched then perform Cathy's Clown on television's American Bandstand).
We learned about gratitude and humility - that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean... and we were taught to value everyone's contribution and treat everyone with respect.And I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. Thanks for your love and nice comments on my post, it means a lot to me and I would like to know more about you and how long you have been a good fan of mine Okay then I will direct you to my gmail address platform where we talk more on my leisure hour. Best Regards.Text:paulmccartney00990@gmail.com
I wanna hold your hand, I saw her standing there, if I fell, and I love her, twist and shout, I should have known better, all my loving…..the very best!
This was one of their best early recordings. This and the flip side of And I Love Her was one of my favorites. To be honest, all their albums were one of my favorites. Music would never be the same.
I was always amazed at the sound of those thousands of girls screaming some primitive mating call . Pure emotion!!! Only the Beatles music could do that .
I always liked how John took a lower register on the Was in Vain lyric. Not as noticeble here live but on the recorded version it is a great example of early John and Paul making great vocals together.
I lived close to Indianapolis when this concert was held, but regrettably did not go. A girl from my church did go, and tried to get close to the Beatles before or after the show, but to no avail. However, her mother was standing outside waiting on her and the Beatles came out so close to her that she could have reached out to touch them!
My mother was a musician, and while many adults in 1964 thought the Beatles weren't music, just noise, my mother recognized the talent, the uniqueness, and that this wasn't a fad. She bought me every new Beatles album the day they were released and encouraged my love of music. RIP, mom. Thanks, I love and miss you.
What a lovely tribute.
THAT was so sweet. I wish I had cool parents back then.
My dad's idea of music was Mitch Miller. TORTURE.
AND it gets worse. He insisted on my getting a crew cut EVERY TIME he took me to the barber shop !!

To those who say this is no good, remember that they honed their craft and exploded in popularity as a live act. For a group of young guys who couldn't hear themselves over the screaming and lacking the technology we have now, they were, and remain, the best ever. Listen again!
And they moved on from the “boy meets girl” motif to much more complicated, like Sgt Pepper.

Yes indeed .. There’s nothing like that early Beatles sound…specially the live stuff.
Every song
Never
No wonder kids are all mad today theres mo hood music to relax
Love it how Ringo opens his hats for the last verse.
Me too. Ringo was very noisey for that kind of songs in that era 😍
It turns it into a rock anthem!
Well, John did say in the third bit, he wanted more bang lol.
I'm playing it this way from now on.
The Beatles don't need technology...they make their own musical MAGIC!
Yes, they were a miracle.
All those amps and mics they were using are technology
John and Paul did some really good harmonies on this one.
I like this song.
This is a beautiful song
They’re like choirboys! 😏
george martin most certainly arranged them but yeah they sang them beautifully
You think?
One of the most beautiful songs ever written. A heart wrenching performance by the Beatles ❤️
Agreed.
What always amazes me is Paul's commitment
Check out Mary Lou by the Creative Force, amazing!

If you’re wonder why at some points they sound off tune it’s because even they themselves sometimes couldn’t even hear themselves over the screaming
Also keep in mind they didn't have monitors and only shows true talent between them; which very much lacks in today's musack~
So very true . I would also say.. although Ringo gets some guff.. John and Paul were a bit rushed at the beginning.. Ringo kept wonderful timing throughout.. truer to the original recorded track...
It’s the taperecorder that is not running perfectly! The Beatles are 100% in tune!!
There are no outta tune vocals on this. The guitars aren't perfectly in tune on some of the chords.

This is in my top tier of great Beatles songs that to my recollection never made it on to a greatest hits album, Red, Blue, Beatles 1, etc.
An absolutely beautiful, vintage song, and very difficult to perform, given their circumstances. As a side note, there is something special when John and Paul shared a mike.

The Beatles...is a "once in history miracle"...they will only happen once...never to happen again.
I fell in love with the Beatles from the beginning Paul and John sound good together Beatle Power
The greatest pop group ever. This is another great song from the album Hard Days Night.
my favorite Beatles song... hands down...
John+ Paul's harmonies together were beautiful,what a band,rest in peace john+george you may be gone but your not forgotten,godbless you amen🌈🌹✌👍😍😘💓
For a brief period of time all the stars aligned and brought these two together. After all these years I marvel when I see them actually performing together side by side. Even more remarkable is seeing Paul, at age 80, still performing for 2 hours in a stadium show. If John had lived I'm sure we would have seen them together again. Each is great in his own right, but together they become a new and greater entity. Long live The Beatles.
Yes!!!
❤
In my estimation, this song is a musical and vocal masterpiece. If you listen to the two voices independently, you will notice what I mean. This is what makes this song absolutely amazing.
Agreed, a masterful example of melody and harmony. In addition, the jingle jangle of the Rickenbacker guitars (especially the 12 string) along with the full and rich sounding Hofner bass give it an unmistakable charm. This is the sound that best identifies the early Beatles.
Such an original harmony sung by John & Paul. All through the band's existence, Beatles harmonies were the heart of so many of their songs,
I agree. Cass Elliot was proclaimed that the Mamas and the Papas harmonies were better than the Beatles’, but how could they have been???
Very Everly Brother's influenced.
@@jimdep6542 The early Beatles were, of course, influenced by the music titans of their youth. Elvis, Carl Perkins, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Roy Orbison, others, and yes, the harmonizing Everly Brothers (I watched then perform Cathy's Clown on television's American Bandstand).
Just incredible. Love the footage of an incredible time in music history. Nothing today comes close.

The best "listening" music from that century that bleeds into 2022 with no effort what so ever.
The Beatles were the greatest band anywhere at any time. It was always glad confident morning when they played. They are immortal
"If I fell" is the one of my most favourit songs. Thank you so much.

The fans screamed throughout every live Beatles performance. A phenomena like the Beatles has never been repeated
The Beatles. There will never be another. It's very unfortunate we didn't have them for that long.
The Beatles are the greatest band ever!!!!!
We learned about gratitude and humility - that so many people had a hand in our success, from the teachers who inspired us to the janitors who kept our school clean... and we were taught to value everyone's contribution and treat everyone with respect.And
I want to specially appreciate you for being a big fan. Thanks for your love and nice comments on my post, it means a lot to me and I would like to know more about you and how long you have been a good fan of mine Okay then I will direct you to my gmail address platform where we talk more on my leisure hour.

Magnificent, I like how Paul was always upbeat and genuinely enjoying his participation.
Great tune and clip. Amazing they could sing as well over the screaming with no monitor speakers. They were indeed great!
Pure talent

I don’t see how he could write this. Incredibly intricate and the whole thing is absolutely mind boggling.
The Beatles are phenomenal. They're unbeatable!
The best ever! The world of pop rock & so on went from them! Just simply the best!
Always I will love you , your talent, genius and your musical gift to the world. R I. P. John and George ❤ thank you for everything. X

I wanna hold your hand, I saw her standing there, if I fell, and I love her, twist and shout, I should have known better, all my loving…..the very best!
This was one of their best early recordings. This and the flip side of And I Love Her was one of my favorites. To be honest, all their albums were one of my favorites. Music would never be the same.
I was always amazed at the sound of those thousands of girls screaming some primitive mating call . Pure emotion!!! Only the Beatles
music could do that .
Check out the Kinks' "live at Kelvin Hall" - not just the Beatles but any British band 64-66.
I'm 68 years old, and finally someone can explain this phenomenon to me. I wasn't old enough yet to have a mating call.
😂
What a combination of voices ..unique

I always liked how John took a lower register on the Was in Vain lyric. Not as noticeble here live but on the recorded version it is a great example of early John and Paul making great vocals together.
I lived close to Indianapolis when this concert was held, but regrettably did not go. A girl from my church did go, and tried to get close to the Beatles before or after the show, but to no avail. However, her mother was standing outside waiting on her and the Beatles came out so close to her that she could have reached out to touch them!
The music of the Beatles was and is magic, made for real people, who can easily get happy.
OH MY GOD! I was certain there was no live footage of this song!! This makes my month
Might be why they said it was rare in the title! 🤦♂️
