  • Here is an acapella version of my re-creation of the Beatles song "Because" from the "Abbey Road" album. After posting a harmony breakdown video of this song which highlights each of the three parts individually, I had received a number of requests for a version that combines all the parts. By the way, if you haven't already seen my video of the full song (instruments and all), it can be found at • Because (Beatles cover)

    I'm sure you don't expect your audience to be 17-year-old goth girls, and honestly, I had never been a Beatles fan, but I stumbled upon this video and something about this song is just so mesmerizing... I've been listening to The Beatles nonstop for the past few days, and it's mainly thanks to you. :)

    I'm 51 now, but when I was 26, in a rock band with a guitarist that was several years younger than me, he had been "discovering" many Beatles tunes at the time [he had loved many of their more "prominent" songs like most of the general public always had/has] but when he came across this song he was BLOOWWWWNNN AWAY! He listened to it over, and over, and over...reveling in these harmonies. I turned my 17 year-old son onto the Beatles and he, like MANY youth of today, is discovering the genius of "the Fab Four." Even my 13 yr-old daughter had to conceit, after watching the Beatles perform at Shea Stadium, via good ol' UA-cam, the Beatles were a bigger sensation than Justin Bieber (barf) will ever be, and their music will ever endure.

      Charles Pruett I am 15. Nobody seems to be beatlemaniac in my family, anyway when I was 14 I had a voice in my head that made me look up The Beatles. I don't know how i lived without their music.
      I am the weird kid under my family and friends' perspective, listening to 50 years old music. I cannot be happier! Finally i found real music. They are my favorite band and will ever be. Their lyrics are so poetic and their melodies speak the same or even more! It is great that i also got to "discover" some great artists as Dylan and Bowie.
      Especially these days songs have dumb or no messages.
      I would love to have a beatlemaniac father 😊 But i will sure be a beatlemaniac mother!

However, your rendition (a cappella with yourself) is PERFECTLY spot-on and balanced. Kudos, and Thx (again - Id Est: I came from your other video, regarding the "breakdown" of this song!)

In this song in particular, it appears that the brain simply picks out the notes that it finds best as the song rolls on. That becomes the melody that I know. I've had to completely unlearn that in order to do this song. Thank you for this wonderful production.

    This is superbly reproduced.
    My only criticism of this beautiful piece is that it ends too soon. Back in the day, early eighties, I first acquired a DX7 and I borrowed somebody's 4-track Portastudio (remember them?)
    Once I had figured out how to use them, the very first thing I recorded was my own eight-minute long version of "Because". It wasn't easy but I was proud of the results. For some strange reason which I can't recall, I had it in my head that the song was in D minor rather than C# minor so I had to sing Paul's parts even higher than the original. I can barely hear those high notes today, never mind sing them!
    I have always loved singing in harmony and there are very few songs which are such a pleasure to perform along with other singers who know what they are doing.
    "Because" isn't easy to perform but it's magnificently rewarding to do whenever you get the chance. These days, I'd have to do George rather than Paul!

    • @AllYouNeedIsLub
      @AllYouNeedIsLub  3 місяці тому +1

      Thank you, and thanks for sharing your memories. When the first Portastudio came out, I was 12 years old, and dreamt of getting one someday. Three years later, I was able to borrow a “sound-on-sound” reel-to-reel (not quite the same as actual multitrack recording, but it was a start. Two years after that, I bought a Yamaha 4-track recording “system” (it was more affordable than the Tascam).

    To answer your question: mismag822 is another UA-cam member who likes the videos I produce and will often share my videos on his own UA-cam channel. So, as much as fate had something to do with it, this person found my video because of something mismag822 posted.
