I love If You've Got Troubles. Ringo really delivers one of his most rocking beats while singing the lead vocal with laid-back confidence. I never really understood why this song wasn't released until the Anthology 2 album. This is my favorite Ringo/Beatles track.
Many people don’t believe that Ringo was/is a great drummer. None of those people are drummers themselves. On the other hand almost all professional drummers praise him as great and as a huge influence. Vocally he doesn’t have a huge range but his voice quality is warm and endearing. He is a great entertainer and has the best personality of all the Beatles. They were lucky to have him.
There was a time 20 years ago when dissing Ringo was considered a sign of musical sophistication. With the advent of the Internet and consequent decline of the power of pseudointellectual music criticism, that time has passed. Everybody who knows anything about rhythm acknowledges Ringo Starr as an imitable badass motherfucker.
what gets me is, when appraising the Beatles musicianship talents, we seem to assume that they all went through years and years of classical training, taught by the masters of the trade and should then all play like maestros! these were shop floor, learning by doing musicians - went through the apprenticeship of life. Not taught by some god of the guitar or piano, just humble players who had something which even the masters of an instrument do not necessarily have, the ability to write music and words and create a song which hit the emotions of people around the world! bum notes included!
What I love about Ringo is, although he wasn't born with the best voice in the band, he's really developed strength and confidence in his voice over his solo career.
Great tune and it clearly fits under "The Only 12 Beatles Songs Ringo Starr Sang Lead Vocals On." Also fits with "These are the stories behind every Beatles song featuring RIngo Starr on lead vocals." Grunge just effed it up!
It was designated for release on Rubber Soul, but was not up to snuff. Ringo sensed it. for when it came to the break, instead of the usual, 'take it George', he yelped, "take it...anybody!"
Ringo Starr is quite a unique singer. I also believe that his drumming is underrated. My favorite Ringo songs while he was with the Beatles are Octopus' Garden, Yellow Submarine, and A Little Help From My Friends. I also enjoy most of the solo done by Ringo Starr.
I love Your sixteen, Your beautiful and your mine. Octopus's garden, and Yellow Submarine. It don't come easy is another huge favourite of mine as is Photograph. Basically any of his songs appeal to me. Hard to choose between them. But I just love Ringo anyway. He always comes across as very laid back and pretty happy.
On the song "with a little help from my friends ", the way his voice detunes in places adds an amazing effect to the song. Mark e Smith used this technique too, to great effect
Interviewer: “What makes it a Ringo song? What defines that...?” Ringo Starr: “Because I recorded it - and the way I sing it!” Exactly, Mr. Starkey. Not the greatest singer (-or even drummer) in the world, but with the H... of a lot of personality and charm. It would take a very cold person not to like Ringos performances😊
Every time Ringo performs "Boys' it becomes a new favorite. Ringo is so multi-talented. Besides being the greatest drummer in history and being a great singer, he also composed great music and presents some of the greatest rock shows. His "Liverpool" never fails to draw tears from my eyes.
If you listen carefully, you can also hear Ringo's voice in the instrumental "Flying" from Magical Mystery Tour, and "Carry That Weight" from Abbey Road. Noteworthy: Of Ringo's 11 vocal leads as a Beatle, 4 were covers; 2 of those covers by Carl Perkins, 4 by John and Paul for Ringo to sing, 1 by John, Paul and Ringo himself, and 2 by Ringo himself.
I think Ringo was a beautiful singer. I love the way he sung at naturally and honey don’t. I think it would’ve been really cool if he was a song rocky raccoon I think he would’ve really did a good job on that one too. I am a total beetle fan. I’ve been one every since I was 11 years old. Thanks for the video. You did a great job.👍🏼👍🏼😁😎🎸❤️
Yeah, Ringo, with his country-ish voice, might have done well on Rocky Raccoon. But the very next song on the White Album was Ringo's own Don't Pass Me By.
@@bluepeng8895 Sure he was not in the same class as some singers but his voice suited the songs that he did sing. He is a lovely positive man and we need more like him.
Ringo's voice always came through well when all four of them were equally miked up. The chorus of "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill," and the wordless vocals on "Flying" are two of the best examples.
The album Please Please Me was not recorded on one day. Three songs where recorded much earlier, Please Please Me and Ask Me Why, November 26 th 1962, Love me do also in 1962. The rest of the album was recorded february 11th 1963.
"only 11 songs" LOL... i say he's got some talent if he did lead vocals on just one song. It's rare to see a drummer who can sing while drumming. this actually reminds me of a story with my old band, we were trying to tell these guys how to set us up for a "battle of the bands" show and we told the guy that our drummer did backing vocals (which he did do in our live shows, that were set up by ourselves). The guy just straight up looked at us and said "nope"... LOL their whole show management setup was a scam anyways, which was revealed later on... (they did a bunch of them in the mid-late 2000s)
Amazing,really ,he was the drummer in a Band with those three ,in any other band from that era apart from the Dave Clark five he would have remained the drummer,nothing amazing whatsoever.The Beatles gave him a solo spot live and on record that’s where the total comes from.
Missing here is the info that If You've Got Trouble was initially the song for Ringo on HELP, but he didn't like it ... and proposed Act Naturally instead.
I call your name is sung by Lennon but was written to be sung by Starr, there's a cool video on UA-cam with Starr singing with Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Jeff Lynne and Jim Keltner: not a bad backing band!
I lived through the entire Beatles era, I was 8 in 1960 and by the time they made Sergeant Peppers I was 15, so we who were there at the time saw music change in the 7 short years, Cream, Hendrix and The Moody Blues etc. As they say "you had to be there" and it is true, what I really hate is all this stuff all over youtube about the Beatles. They broke up and went in different directions and that Get Back thing by Peter Jackson was an utter night mare, WHY? What good could it do except make a few people wealthy, John Lennon would never have allowed it. I remember that guy filming them back then and it was interesting but unnecessary. Watching Yellow Submaine and Magical Mystery Tour on acid was what it was all about, like listening to Electric Ladyland on acid or Disraeli Gears, it was of it's time. I am glad I had the experience but all this Beatles stuff misses the point. Who really gives a toss what songs Ringo sang on, I am sure he couldn't care less nowadays, he had the experience too.
Right, since Love Me Do, PS I Love You, Please Please Me, and Ask Me Why were from different sessions, thus, the album was not recorded in a single day. The other 10 songs though, were from a single day session.
11 too many :) Love the Beatles and I love Ringo but when you have Lennon and McCartney as well as Harrison, Ringo should have known his place vocally.
You show footage from the Beatles singing "Shout" but don't cite it? That's a joint effort by all four, they all sing lead at some point in the song. Thumb down.
Of all the Beatles songs Ringo sang on only one I like and that is "Act Naturally". As for solo songs "It Don't Come Easy", "You're Sixteen", and "Photograph". Ringo has a voice that is just not appealing to the ear. That is my opinion so don't hammer me with protests.
What was your favorite performance by Ringo Starr?
A little help from my friends.
Back in the USSR, you know what I'm talking about lol.
I love If You've Got Troubles. Ringo really delivers one of his most rocking beats while singing the lead vocal with laid-back confidence. I never really understood why this song wasn't released until the Anthology 2 album. This is my favorite Ringo/Beatles track.
I like "It Don't Come Easy" but very little else by Ringo. Not a fan of his singing.
Boys was great, I Wanna Be Your Man and What Goes On were also terrific.

His voice suits the songs he sings which is the most important thing. Wonderful man full of love.

He's a good drummer, it's just that compared to his contemporaries; Charlie Watts, Keith Moon, Ginger Baker; he seems less prolific.
Damn straight

Good Night was the most beautiful song that the Beatles ever recorded. Ringo did it perfectly.
I couldn't help but notice "If You've Got Trouble" wasn't listed in this video. I know it's not one of their best, but it's still a Starr-vocal!
But it's not on the canonical albums or singles.
I like 'If You've Got Trouble'!
Great tune and it clearly fits under "The Only 12 Beatles Songs Ringo Starr Sang Lead Vocals On." Also fits with "These are the stories behind every Beatles song featuring RIngo Starr on lead vocals." Grunge just effed it up!
it's a great song
It was designated for release on Rubber Soul, but was not up to snuff. Ringo sensed it. for when it came to the break, instead of the usual, 'take it George', he yelped, "take it...anybody!"
Ringo rocks!
Octopus Garden rocks
The only Beatle that I kind of like. The rest of them were raging wankers.
RR man RR
@@bigblob1623 George was quiet and friendly until he got fed up of unfairly not being recognized.
"I don't remember any squabbles."
"You don't remember anything, do you?"
That really broke me up. Does it get any better than that?
Ringo Starr is quite a unique singer. I also believe that his drumming is underrated. My favorite Ringo songs while he was with the Beatles are Octopus' Garden, Yellow Submarine, and A Little Help From My Friends. I also enjoy most of the solo done by Ringo Starr.
“Goodnight” is an Under Rated Classic….

Basically any of his songs appeal to me. Hard to choose between them. But I just love Ringo anyway. He always comes across as very laid back and pretty happy.
He also sings with Paul on Carry That Weight, and the chorus of Maxwells Silver Hammer.
I would class him as the lead singer on "Carry that weight".
Don’t pass me by Is one of my favorite songs from that album.
Excellent video as always.Thank you for the download. I really enjoy your work.. It is really interesting and I love learning from you.
On the song "with a little help from my friends ", the way his voice detunes in places adds an amazing effect to the song.
Mark e Smith used this technique too, to great effect

It would take a very cold person not to like Ringos performances😊
I enjoy the channel it's a way to relax and yet learn
He’s a great entertainer.. especially later on.. watching his gestures as he sings..
Remember Ringo, with Lee, in the Oldsmobile commercial?
Every time Ringo performs "Boys' it becomes a new favorite. Ringo is so multi-talented. Besides being the greatest drummer in history and being a great singer, he also composed great music and presents some of the greatest rock shows. His "Liverpool" never fails to draw tears from my eyes.
Can't say greatest drummer when Keith Moon existed
Boys is the best Ringo track for me.

Yellow submarine, was his best Song .but this is only my meaning..his voice is verry good, for other Songs, also..✌❤Lg Ellen from Germany
the only issue I have with yellow submarine is that it is on Revolver! what a pity!
@@philipditchfield439 isn't it a pity...lg Ellen ✌❤

Octopuses Garden, With a Little Help Front My Friends, and Yellow Submarine are 3 of my favorite Beatles songs ✌️❤️
Everyone seems to overlook that Ringo did the chorus of Bungalow Bill
None of the Other Beatles Could Have Sang Act Naturally As Good As Ringo!..
I like" Honey Dont. "- Carl Perkins song. Also, "Act Naturally "-Buck Owen's song. They should of changed "Boys"to Girls,for Ringo to sing .
Ringo was a very good singer and naturally a great drummer too. He should have been alowed to sing more songs with The Beatles.
Well he's rocking it now without them and doing fine. He's 82 and still going strong on stage. Definitely a legend.
Lol he’s definitely not a “very good” singer
@@bluepeng8895 Sure he was not in the same class as some singers but his voice suited the songs that he did sing. He is a lovely positive man and we need more like him.
Great drummer.
No.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 ask any drummer and they will tell you how revolutionary he was as a drummer.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 You don't play. Be quiet.
@@chiarosuburekeni9325 Yes. Wasn't flashy but technically he was
Who doesn’t love Ringo? He’s an awesome drummer and a great singer.
Ringo's voice always came through well when all four of them were equally miked up. The chorus of "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill," and the wordless vocals on "Flying" are two of the best examples.
There's another song in the album anthology 2 that Ringo sung: If you ve got trouble
Don't Pass Me By is my favorite Ringo song, no question.
The album Please Please Me was not recorded on one day. Three songs where recorded much earlier, Please Please Me and Ask Me Why, November 26 th 1962, Love me do also in 1962. The rest of the album was recorded february 11th 1963.
Ringo did a sublime version of the Ave Maria. It’s a rarity but worth checking out.
I don’t get the hate with Honey Don’t, What Goes On, Act Naturally and I Wanna Be Your Man
Little help is the best Ringo vocal. He also plays organ on im looking through you
The Ringo songs are my favourite Beatles songs.
"only 11 songs" LOL... i say he's got some talent if he did lead vocals on just one song. It's rare to see a drummer who can sing while drumming.

Amazing on how few songs Ringo sang. But they were good.
Amazing,really ,he was the drummer in a Band with those three ,in any other band from that era apart from the Dave Clark five he would have remained the drummer,nothing amazing whatsoever.The Beatles gave him a solo spot live and on record that’s where the total comes from.
Most of them are not so good really. He usually had one of the weaker songs on the albums
My favorite movie was Help
Missing here is the info that If You've Got Trouble was initially the song for Ringo on HELP, but he didn't like it ... and proposed Act Naturally instead.
Richard is still drumming great. He does a Great cover of Rock Around the Clock, even has his Brother in Law, Joe Walsh on it.
Why is it that on so many UA-cam videos the narrator talks too fast? 🤔🤔🤔
More than enough.
Wait, a map of the Maritime Provinces in the background? cool!
without RINGGO the BEATLES will never be
Could not imagine the Beatles or their catalog without Ringo. Hate all you want. Drummer of over 800,000,000 units sold.
the goat,,,
Ringo è unico ❤
Photograph Is A Powerful Favorite Song Since 74
I luved A HARD DAY'S NIGHT.
You forgot If You've Got Troubles from Anthology 2 and technically Flying is also a Ringo sung song
My favorite jam on Rock Band was “I Wanna Be Your Man.”
Only 11. He made up for it with his solo career. I’m looking for the tracks Charlie Watts, Dennis Wilson, Keith Moon sang on with their groups.
They now use Yellow Submarine in ads, and I wince when I hear Ringo miss that note on ‘land’. It’s painful.
the whole song is!
I have CD in my car , where I have only songs with Ringo lead vocal . I like to Imagine him as a leader of the group😂
"Six O'clock", the best song.
Ринго это класс! Ringo is great!
I call your name is sung by Lennon but was written to be sung by Starr, there's a cool video on UA-cam with Starr singing with Tom Petty, Joe Walsh, Jeff Lynne and Jim Keltner: not a bad backing band!
I had read that their first album took onlu 30 minutes to record.
"Octopus Garden" and "Photograph" !
La música., la música. de los Beatles.
I really liked Good Night. Seems silly but it is what it is.
What got me is that it is rumored that Ringo has more solo/group hits than another beetle. I thought that it would have been Paul.
Early on by the mid-70s he just about did. Especially in the US.
I love what goes on
1:15 Sophomore album? What in the f@#k does that mean?
Their second one.
I lived through the entire Beatles era, I was 8 in 1960 and by the time they made Sergeant Peppers I was 15, so we who were there at the time saw music change in the 7 short years, Cream, Hendrix and The Moody Blues etc. As they say "you had to be there" and it is true, what I really hate is all this stuff all over youtube about the Beatles.

This is just a video that presents information about the band... Do you expect them not to be talked about?
The Beatles' 4th best singer was better than many band's 1st.
You forgot If You’ve Got Trouble
Not the WHOLE album in one day. 10 songs, the 4 single tracks done earlier were also included.
Only 11? That's an entire album.
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽❤️
Joe what a unique dude.
Those Beatle covers of Carl Perkins saved him from a pending foreclosure and bankruptcy.
Saved Carl Perkins, you mean.
What about "Carry that weight"?
"Please, Please Me" was not recorded in a single day.
Right, since Love Me Do, PS I Love You, Please Please Me, and Ask Me Why were from different sessions, thus, the album was not recorded in a single day. The other 10 songs though, were from a single day session.
He had a nice voice maybe they were afraid on losing some money if they would let him sing.
Awesome drummer
All I heard in this video is the presenter's talking, not Ringo singing.
Yellow submarine. Act Naturally. Etc etc. 😊
11 too many :)
Love the Beatles and I love Ringo but when you have Lennon and McCartney as well as Harrison, Ringo should have known his place vocally.
Probably has the most single number 1 hits
With hair like that, he deserved his place in the Beatles!
👏👍🙏😌
You show footage from the Beatles singing "Shout" but don't cite it? That's a joint effort by all four, they all sing lead at some point in the song. Thumb down.
Let's not forget his time as the front man for Thomas and friends.
I love yellow sumarine
I’m surprised it’s as many as that.
Of all the Beatles songs Ringo sang on only one I like and that is "Act Naturally". As for solo songs "It Don't Come Easy", "You're Sixteen", and "Photograph". Ringo has a voice that is just not appealing to the ear. That is my opinion so don't hammer me with protests.
I actually like Ringo’s version better than the original.
Act Naturally is probably his best in The Beatles. Octopus' Garden is good too. The rest are probably mostly mediocre to bad
@@se6369 I like Act Naturally mainly for George's guitar playing.
Was "Yellow Submarine" the big #1 hit... or was it "Eleanor Rigby" on the flip side of the record?
I thought it was Eleanor Rigby lives in a yellow submarine
@@bopmathews .. Haha! Maybe she did.
Both.
I think in order to do a documentary like this you've got to produce the damn song so we know what it sounds like, otherwise you lack authenticity.
Classical nose 👃.
Not sure why some would say Ringo was not a great drummer. I think the opposite is true and was one of the steadiest drummers in the business.
i didn't know that ringo starr had such a powerful eyes he could see the ocean from sardinia 🤣🤣
Eleven more than me, tbf.
That many....Huh.
That’s 11 too many, I always skip yellow submarine and what goes on and most of the rest of his songs.
all the children’s songs.
Ringo will outlive Paul!
But they are classics.
What do you mean the "only" ??? Does that mean George Harrison wrote "only" 25 songs for the Beatles? Pretty lame here. 🎬
