Priscilla Ahn - Julia (The Beatles Cover)

- Today was a beautiful, crisp, windy day. When I looked outside there was a big morning moon hanging so delicately in the sky. It made me think of my favorite Beatles' song, "Julia". I realized I didn't have the song in my computer though, and crazy enough, The White Album isn't available to purchase on itunes! (There's something I sort of like about that though)
So I decided to cover it. It only took me 30 minutes, and it was simply to satisfy the "fix" I needed to hear, sing, and play this song. You can hear a lot of lip smacking, and a lot of unfinished 'ideas' of harmonies....
I've put the song to a bunch of tour videos* I've been collecting over the past 3 years. I didn't try to synch anything up. These are just randomly chosen clips** that I really like. (sigh...) I've come to terms with the fact that I am just not a perfectionist, and I never will be. So take it as you will. I hope you enjoy it.
love,
p. ahn

I didn't think anyone could do this like the Beatles but this is magnificent. Love it
John * it’s only him on guitar . Ig you could say John and George Martian , but not really Beatles
the harmonies in the seconds right after 1:28 are absolutely heavenly
wow, a wonderful rendition, she hits the nail on this one.
The best cover I've listened so far. Julia is one of my favorite Beatles' songs and you got to have 'soul' to sing and play this beauty. You played and sang in a such pure way.
Congratulations for this simple but wonderful cover.
All the best
Oh my GAWD your voice is GORGEOUS and this is flawless. And great favorite Beatles song. One of the coolest people I ever knew had "Julia" as her fave Beatles song ever. It's sooooo beautiful.
Haunting version. I love this song and have always wanted to do a cover like this-- looks like Pricilla beat me to it! Thats ok though because this is beyond beautiful! Will listen a million times xoxo
This video is "badass" yet so eccentric. And the sound is soooo smoothe, like melted butter............................
Enchanted by the song, shaken by the video. Both somehow in harmony.
What a wonderful harmony. I love this music and never have found a cover that keep the magic of the original version. Made me get in a good trip
Harmonies are absolutely unreal.
Nicely done! Your voice and creative harmonies are absolutely lovely. They lend themselves so well to this tender song. God, John was just a super-talented spirit, wasn’t he? I will send this to friends for more views and likes. Cheers!
You really made my day and night with this version, how delicate and warm it is, God bless ya..
I love this cover so much
i have to say i'm pretty surprised about that guy complaining about priscilla covering this song. she did a wonderful job and i reckon john lennon would love this, and he'd be pleased that people were still being inspired by this song so many years after he wrote it.
You uploaded this on my 11th birthday. I’m almost 20 now, but thank you, the best cover on UA-cam.
Thank you so much for this!i actually received the white album record for my birthday and when i heard this song i fell in love. As to be one of my favorites next to dear prudence
...As I've noted before, Priscilla, you are the rarest form of singer... First, in my opinion your are the best singer songwriter of all time. Your creativity seems to be making you the best interpreter of covers I have ever heard. If you were to sing the phone book, AT&T would have to turn ownership over to you.
I've listened to John Lennon's recording of this song 100s of times; but the imagery just now popped for the first time. Thank you Priscilla.
O lord, how beautiful. I love The Beatles so much, but I have to say, your voice makes this song sound so beautifully haunting
I love this. On a not so sunny day it makes me deeply happy inside. seriously :)
I'd love to hear more covers from you. It's true, you're your own hardest critic. Because this sounds amazing
Lovely ..here again after 6 years !
It should be illegal to have a voice this beautiful.
I just love your version of this song. I will be hearing it in my head all day.
this is insane, how you sing this, totally love it
I love this song ♡
i love this song and your cover is so beautiful ! i recognize quite a few of these places from around england, the video works very well with the music.
So beautiful
almost didnt click on this, so glad i did it is amazing
Gorgeous. Saw you supporting Ray Lamontagne in Manchester and I've fell in love with you ever since. Not many people can cover a Beatles song and make it their own, I think you managed it, absolutely beautiful!

My favorite Beatles song, too... sounds really pretty with you singing it. :)
Yay!
There is one part with the pier, it's in england, Brighton maybe, and also in the movie Quadrophenia, it where the two gangs meet up near the end of the movie, and fight on the beach.
La chanson est merveilleuse mais quelle belle interprétation chapeau !!!
@bunnyyummy123 I agree so completely. I don't mean to ruin anything by this comment but I feel high. I have never felt more completely and utterly relaxed and soothed in my entire life. Oh my gosh.... The first time I heard you sing was the song 'Dream' and I thought of this song. I saw this video title and u thought "surely not THE Julia" and I listened to it and it's the most beautiful song I have heard. John would love you for it, don't ever think he wouldn't. Thank you so much. I am inspire
amazing
Beautiful cover 💕
Great
Very nicely done!
yay stonehenge! (just down the road from me)
beautiful song and video!
@BeNotNormal and harmonizing with herself as well...purely divine. I so hope this song will be on her next album.
You should put more songs up!
