    Barry Ryan ~Eloise~ 'Soft Vocal Rare Demo' written by Paul Ryan.
    This video was created in loving memory of Paul & Barry & has been uploaded under the terms of Fair Use. No copyright infringement intended.
    For the first time on UA-cam you can hear Barry Ryan singing with a soft vocal "Eloise" which was recorded after Marion & Barry Ryan were in the studio recording "Better Use Your Head" , Marion sang one version & Barry another ( Barry's version of "Better Use Your Head" was published on Barry Ryan 3.
    They had time left over in the recording studio & as you can hear in Barry's own words, he did a soft vocal take which he knew was not right for the song once he had done this & of course he ended up singing it the now famous way which had passion, drama & also tenderness combined into one song which of course was written by his twin brother Paul.
    I had heard this version first in 1968 as my father had this & treasured this and now share this with you all.
    It was from a reel to reel & then changed to digital. Stefan, a collector, like Erhard from Germany who was so kind to send me treasures from their collection, cleaned the audio so now after sitting in the shadows for almost 55 years it is now shared with you all.
    I was the keeper of this treasure but have heard that it was played on community radio.
    Here you can hear it all in Barry's own words with an excerpt from an interview. • Barry Ryan Talks About... .
    I used footage from a live performance of Eloise & also the original clip & extras to try & make it look in synch.
    I must admit I love this version, I know the second take where Barry ' gave the song all his worries' as suggested by Paul thereby singing it powerfully with passion rather than the sweet soft vocal was the perfect take and turned Eloise into a hit. They did only 2 takes according to Barry .I love the way it slowly builds momentum & love the yells ; rock screams at the end.
    Early in 1968 the brothers were invited to a party at the home of Irish actor Richard Harris, who was a friend of their mother, at which he played a rough recording of an unusual song he had completed months before. ‘MacArthur Park’.
    Paul was not only struck by the length of this song but also its complexity & that it had distinct movements with radically different time signatures.
    He told friends at another party that he was going to write an incredible song & Barry was going to perform it, Barry, supportive as always, (in fact this was the first time Barry heard of it) straight away agreed.
    As told by Barry, Paul spent the next three days locked away to write something similar, an almost operatic rock song in three clearly identifiable parts and came up with Eloise - knowing that with a running time of 5:50 it would be a challenge for radio.
    It was recorded in two takes at the end of one of their mother’s studio sessions, she recorded “Better Use Your Head” (here is this recording • Marion Ryan "Better Us... )
    and Barry also recorded the same song. Here is Barry’s version and a fan made video for this • Barry Ryan "Better Us...
    Eloise was recorded with the help of an orchestra and Jimmy Page & John Paul Jones moments before they formed Led Zeppelin.
    Barry’s electric dramatic & at times tender vocal performance, fired up by a bottle of Jack Daniels, is, once heard, remains unforgettable. It is one of those songs that just about everyone who lived in that era in the UK and Europe, knows & recognizes.
    Eloise sold three million copies going to No.1 in 17 countries.
    Sadly there were some issues, they did not make enough copies of this single to begin with & as this was released prior to Christmas, it meant, that there were not enough copies to buy in that busy time of year. The other huge problem was the market in America. They had decided that with the length of the song (over 5 minutes) they were going to edit it for their market. It basically butchered the song and turned it into repeated verses, the start was cut out, the middle part was cut, & the ending left out & basically had 4 verses & 2 1/2 minutes long. This meant that the song was not successful in & ruined any future chances there.
    I want to celebrate the Ryan’s music & perhaps introduce them to a new generation of fans.
    Music has the power to transcend time & makes you feel such incredible emotions, the Ryan twins were magicians with Paul's incredible talented song writing & Barry emotive vocals. I will always remember them with love and a smile.
    They say legends never die & I hope to help in any small way I can by sharing their music with the public.

    Dieser Song hat so viel Kraft und Energie, das diese sehr schöne Version, wohl den Erfolg nicht gehabt hätte... die soften Sequenzen sind schön, die kraftvollen sogar (für mich) viel intensiver als im Original Song! Dankeschön, das du uns diesen selten Schatz gezeigt hast...🥰
    Liebe Grüße Iris

      Danke dir liebe Iris. Ja , du hast Recht, so denke ich auch. Ich liebe diese Demo sehr. Aber ich denke auch, das diese Version nicht den Erfolg gebracht hätte. Liebe Grüsse 🥰

    Es ist so ganz anders diese Version von Eloise. Ich mag sie wirklich sehr. Barry's Stimme kommt ganz anders rüber. Manchmal denkt man das Paul auch mit singt, weil die Stimme von Paul zum Teil höher ist. Aber da kann man mal sehen, nicht nur das Aussehen auch die Stimmen waren ähnlich.
    Danke dir dafür, liebe Tia 😘❤️

      Liebe Andrea, ich mag sie auch wirklich sehr, sie war die erste Version die ich je hörte und ich kann mich immer noch an meine Reaktion erinnern. Spaeter brachte mein Vater die 2. Version und fragte mich welche ich lieber mag. Ich entschloss mich fuer die 2. , die ja die bekannte Single wurde, weil sie sofort anders als alles andere war, aber ich mochte die erste Version so sehr. Ich weiß noch heute , dass die Farben und Muster die ich sah aber anders bei jeder Version waren. Sie waren viel wärmer mit der ersten und mit der 2 viel heller und hatten mehr Farbintensität. Ich denke auch , dass Barry in dieser Version wo er leiser singt mehr Pauls Stimme ähnelt. Ich liebe die extra Worte in dieser Version und auch das Ende. Ich bin dankbar, dass wir jetzt beide Versionen fuer Fans haben. Danke dir 😘❤

      @user-yl3mo8qe9d Diese Version war das erste Mal das Barry Eloise im Studio sang.
      In einem Take, er und Paul wussten sofort, dass diese Version nicht richtig ist, da Barry es sanft , fast wie ein Ballade und Beach Boys es gesungen hatte.
      Paul sagte dass Barry es mit viel mehr Power singen soll. ' Give it all your worries' sagte er zu Barry, was er dann das naechste Mal im Studio 🎙 machte. Diese Video zeigt zum ersten Mal diese soft take Demo, es ist ein ganz besonderes Video, etwas Popgeschichte. Barry erzaehlte, dass er dieses erste mal Eloise im Studio sang, nachdem seine Mutter ein Lied aufgenommen hatte und sie noch 15 Minuten Studiozeit hatten.
      Es war ungeplant und somit so ein Einblick in Popgeschichte. Ich bin so froh, dass ich dieses Demo habe und ich es durch meinen Vater, der in der Musikindustrie arbeitete schon in 1968 gehoert hatte.
      Ich hoffe du verstehst die Bedeutung dieses Video jetzt etwas besser.
      Liebe Gruesse, liebe Magret, 😊 aus Tasmanien ♥️ Tia

    OMG Tia that was fantastic, thank you so very much for sharing it with us. I love the 'soft' version of Eloise, although it may not have been as big a hit as the one that was released that we all know and love so well. Either way, we'll never forget that Paul wrote this incredible song, and that Barry sang it so beautifully well, powerfully and emotionally. After hearing this for the first time ever, we can realise how great the boys were. May they both rest in peace together, and their memories be forever with 💞. Love K.

      Thank you dear Katy, I agree with you, I love this soft version and love the extra words in this and love the end of this one but I also feel that the 2. version, the actual single, had so much more impact this way. It was like NOTHING else and hit you right between the eyes straight off whereas this one slowly built a momentum. I am so glad I could share this with fans as I feel it truly demonstrates their talent. I still get teary eyed thinking of them reunited again. I hope they feel the love their fans still carry in their hearts for them and their music 💞. Lots of love from sunny Tasmania, Tia xx
