  • The first bio on a Beatles' song, and the first song is this random B-side? No one I've seen looks at this song seriously, so let's give some love to this weird song.
    Full song in Stereo: • Video
    1st Song, America's Next Top Model - City Ambience
    2nd Song, KingDux - Doomsday Woah
    Snippet: They Wouldn't Go Along With The TV Series (Top Of The Pops, 5/5/67)

    There's a reason why they chose "take 9." Number # 9 was John's lucky number, and he used the number 9 as a metaphor for himself throughout his 40-year life. "Revolution #9" and "#9 Dream" were also examples of John's fascination with the number 9.

    amazing thing about the Beatles in the 60s was they didn’t rest on their laurels as soon as they finished one album, they kicked off the next one.

    I like "You Know My Name ( look up the number)". It's a fun improvisation - just the four lads having fun and being silly. But if you listen intently there is a thread of a melody in it. And the instrumentation , especially the saxophone part, is pleasing to the ear.

    I have always loved it. I bought the single Let it be in 1969 and as you say it was the B side.. I play this song more than the A side to be honest

    I don't know how long ago this video was made but I absolutely enjoy that song it has such a bluesy style to it which makes it extremely enjoyable which in my personal opinion Paul added two it Paul has always been about old-timey music so it's definitely his style

    The fact that they released this just shows how much power they held at that point in time. I'm glad it was released because it is a novelty and shows the Beatles experimenting but this experiment failed.

    Dennis Odell or Obell was there engineer from the beginning. Starting with the hard days night movie. He wrote a book. Can’t remember the name. I have it somewhere. Great stuff.

    I always thought this song was the Beatles attempt to emulate the Bonzo Dog Band, whom appeared in their film, Magical Mystery Tour.

    There are free video editors out there that don't put a watermark on your video. Just thought you might want to know. Enjoying your video.

      This looks like a good place to bring up the misspellings. They ARE important. At the very least, even if they seem to do no harm, they make your work look amateurish, and like you don't know what you're doing. And the fact that it's so easy to spellcheck these days says that you just can't be bothered to ensure the quality of your presentation.

    I loved 'You Know My Name (Look Up The Number). ¨What´s The New Mary Jane¨ on the other hand, I never could get into. (too much like Zappa´s crap.

      As a kid getting into the band's catalog, I got Anthology 3 and listened to that song. First time for an 11 y/o, I didn't like it too much, but that was before I heard Revolution 9.

      I agree, Mary Jane is rubbish. No mystery why it didn't make the cut. But then again I feel the same way about Don't Pass Me Bi."

    It was a fun song. It didn’t belong on let it be single. But the album didn’t have many songs. They had nothing for side two.
