    My grandma Annie Richmond was born two centuries ago in 1888 and I knew her and loved her. She was a suffereget and a flapper and she would be proud of you ladies….thank you. X

    If Mona had been born 100 years earlier, the world would never have given Mary Pickford or Clara Bow a second look. She looks absolutely fetching as a flapper-era starlet. Why, she's the cat's pajamas!

      I would say that Mona is more of a bee's knees than a cat's pajamas, but whatever...

    Anyone who says that the Beatles were overrated all they need to do is listen and see covers of their music by people like these girls and they would why this music is timeless and so much better and interesting than anything produced today.

    The twin at 1:35 her hair style reminds me a lot of Jean Simmons when she was Estella in the 1946 film adaption of great expectations with the beautiful mid long short locks and the other twins with the blondish hair reminds me of a woman’s appearance around the 1920’s 1930’s period sort of flapper girl singer appearance.
    Very good song cover and very interesting video too I love the old design.

  • @TonyHickschick

    This was real cute. It reminds me of the style of your version of "When I'm 64", which is one of my favorite MonaLisa videos.

    This is a brilliant video of this Beatles song and you have made this version your own. I believe the Beatles were critical about releasing this on their album at the time but glad they did. Your cover version was fun to watch and listen too.

    I have listened to this song far more because of this video than I ever did when it was just a Beatles song. Paul owes MLT his cut of the copyright payments.

    • @audioinsanity

      McCartney needs to give MLT's old man, Rudi, a little extra moolah for the great video, awesome audio production and his portrayal of Max himself in this piece.

  • @rizzlerazzleuno4733
    @rizzlerazzleuno4733 6 років тому +22

    This tune illustrates what is so unique about Paul McCartney's song writing skill. This is essentially a vaudeville/British music hall tune, a black-comedy song and the MonaLisa Twins and their crew have done a splendid job of illustrating the lyrics. Many folk, country, musical, rock, ballad, opera, etc tunes have included murder, killing, death, vehicle crashes, suicide, and other unpleasant deeds, but Silver Hammer is just too goofy to take seriously. Kinda like the recent infatuation with zombies and vampires.

    At the time, a lot of people, even some within the Beatles, dismissed Maxwell's Silver Hammer as a goofy ditty not befitting the group. Leave it to the MonaLisa Twins to come along 50 years later to beguile us all with the charm lurking within the song.

  • @scottrowe533
    @scottrowe533 5 років тому +10

    Beautifully staged and exquisitely performed, ladies! There's a lot of wonderful creativity employed in this particular video, including the 1920s film style, the multiple pairs of identical twins, the madcap murderer Maxwell (Dad, perhaps?), and some splendid harmonies. Mona, I think you may have been born in the wrong age. You would have broken countless hearts as a '20s film star. 😉
    Leave it to Paul McCartney to write a cheeky little pop ditty about a serial murderer and turn it into a controversial radio hit!
