I always wondered what goes through Paul and Ringo minds since they are still around after all these years, so much music concerts, albums, interviews. You wonder if they sit around and think about what a life they've had.
Paul McCartney does and doesn't. The TV show 60 minutes had a big interview with him over the summer. While he's still kinda humbled and awed about the whole Beatles thing, he won't retire any time soon, because writing music is like breathing to him.
Man as sure as this IS You Tube you KNOW a day doesn't pass that they STILL wonder how it all came to be.....The Heavens themselves fated them to be what they became to be....
A lot of these clips seriously look like they were filmed today. Not just the video quality, but there’s something about the cinematography that feels distinctly modern.
“And nothing to get hung about” When John Lennon was young he and his mates would climb the trees and walls at Strawberry Fields. His Aunt Mimi would yell at him to stop and say: “Stop John you’ll get hanged!” And John would answer “there’s nothing to get hung about!” I learnt this on the Magical Mystery Tour today
There are different stories. Another official story is that Mimi would get mad at John for playing in the grounds of Strawberry Field, to which he would reply: “They can’t hang you for it”. Either way, it’s amazing how he would remember it and add it to this song of nostalgic dreaming and longing for inner peace.
Jhordy Jimenez This is not about an event as much as a minor comment. Sure, some things just stick to us, but all documentation points at John having had a very detailed memory. Not at all like the others who didn’t remember much about anything.

"Living is easy with eyes closed - Misunderstanding all you see. It's getting hard to be someone, but it all works out - It doesn't matter much to me" Those lines are just beautiful on so many levels.
Here for the same reason. I've been a 1 album kind of person for a while, but this year i really opened up to it. I've gotten to listen to so much more by them. When i first listened to this song, it's like John was speaking to my soul. I wouldnt have listened to more songs if it wasnt for this one. John will definetly be remembered by those who love him (like everyone in the comments)
The part which always gets me is definately "Living is easy with eyes closed, Misunderstanding all you see, It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out, It doesn't matter much to me". That's just absolute perfection in my opinion.

For those of you who didn't live through the 60's, NO other band caused the level of anticipation The Beatles caused before the release of every single and album they created. Each record was more creative and innovative than the last. They NEVER repeated themselves. Each song was unique and special in it's own way. They were truly the greatest musical phenomenon of the 20th century. They are timeless.
@DouglasRobb-eh1ts I lived the 50’s and 60’s. The Beatles changed our music. In the early 60’s we were listening to Motown music and Idol music.

I was born in 1957. Listening to The Beatles today is a cure for sadness for me. It's the best medicine. A trip to the 60s/70s/80s where there was a kind of world that ended but whose memory makes me very happy.
@@beatlemaniacwaltdisneyfan4753 “I Want To Hold Your Hand” was recorded in Oct. ‘63 while “Strawberry Fields” was recorded Nov-Dec ‘66, which is slightly over three years.

Our beloved, George Harrison, would have turned 78 today. 02/25/43 Liverpool, Lancashire, England The Beatles revolutionized Pop/Rock Music. And they could not have done it without you mate. We miss you..
The Beatles adalah band paling modern pada zamannya...semua lagu mereka yang berasal dari tahun 60-70s,entah kenapa lagu mereka seperti terlalu modern pada zamannya...ykwim...
It's kind of ironic that video quality has decreased as technology has improved. Instead of properly filming things, knowing how to light things, knowing how to focus, understanding concepts like depth of field, people just point their devices that do everything automatically.
When I was 17 years old, I listened to this song for the first time. It was shocking and impressive. After 20 years, I still feel the same and have a great memory of my life. Amazing! Sweet and bitter like a strawberry
When this was released in mid February they would be Ringo 26, John 26, Paul 24, George 23 and also when it was recorded the previous November and December. because their birthdays are in Feb, June, July and Oct. (G,P,R,J). How's that for useless information
I remember when I went to Strawberry Fields I could see multiple people walking around playing this song and it made me think how much The Beatles meant to everyone. I will always love The Beatles and they changed this world for sure!
I had a similar experience in Central Park in NYC where there is the Strawberry Fields area in dedication to John Lennon. Someone was playing Lennon music on a boom box and a cop kicked him out of the park. So he stood right outside the park and blasted it. Everyone applauded and most of us had tears in our eyes. It was beautiful and reminds us how much he and the Beatles really meant to everyone. In NYC where you think of crime and mugging we had everyone together with love and that is thanks to their music.
I remember thinking "how are they doing that" any number of times. The whole album was turned on. I was in high school then, and Pepper's really changed a lot of things in music.
Such a masterful composition and an incredible feat of production. You can break the song down and play it conventionally but it won't have that same dreamlike, otherworldly quality that the recorded version does. The Beatles and George Martin were pioneers when it came to using the studio as an instrument unto itself.
Fun Fact: The final song is actually 2 takes combined. From the first chorus to the first verse, John sang it normally. In the second chorus and onwards however, John sang the song on a faster tempo and higher key (different take). John liked both versions so much that he decided to use them both and told the engineers to do whatever they can to fuse the two different takes. This task however is very complicated since recordings on those times were done on tape unlike digitally today. So the engineers figured out to slow the second take to match the first take. In doing so it also changes the pitch of the second take and matched the first one. That is why on the second chorus onwards, John's voice sounded a bit "different". Cheers! EDIT: The transition from the first take to the second one is in the second chorus at the "'cause I'm going to" line. It's on 1:00
Yeah you should look at what LSD does to human brain under a cat scan. The ability to hear new sounds does not suprise me at all. It was affectively the stuff that ends up in Lucy in the film Lucy. Weird LUCY I didnt even notice the connection!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA
@@giovinis There music was always breaking new ground, despite their overwhelming success, they were never satisfied just to turn out another song just like the last one Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane on the same single both could have topped the charts on their own... And both so different.... Before the Beatles were famous they refused to perform in theaters (in the USA) That were segregated with seats for black and white insisting that anyone could sit where they like or they would not perform ... The Beatles never just took the easy option and were not afraid to stand up for their principles... John in particular was always outspoken ....
Not only one of the greatest songs of all time, but also one of the greatest videoclips ever made. And it was just the beginning of the videoclips' era.
In 500 years people might still see this video. I would love to think we are watching it at the same time. Hello human from an unimaginable time. Lets go to strawberry fields, forever.
I wish i could forget everything about The Beatles to discover them once again and experience the feeling of listening to Beatles songs for the first time.. It’s magical
I’m 13 and have always known about them (how could you possibly avoid them) but I’ve been listening to and discovering their songs for the past few months and Strawberry Fields is definitely my favorite.
it was when I went away to boarding school at age 16 in the 80s that I first started to really get into the Beatles. you're right. it's a magical experience. when I was young I loved Elvis, but my mum always used to say the Beatles were better. I had no idea who they were!
It’s absolutely crazy how good this quality is. Especially since this was from 1967. This literally could’ve been recorded today. It feels so eerie and futuristic, but that’s fitting for one of the best songs of all time.
@Karl Pilkington bet its pretty nice not to have the human -curse- privilege of complicated thought, they just enjoy doing dog stuff which is timeless.
@@groovenfish9531 Nobody said that in this conversation. All that was said is that it's hard to believe that video quality was already this good back then.
I genuinely heard this song for the first time today, and musically it's one of the most impressive songs I've ever heard. The verse melody is so damn good and the arrangement is nuts. Grabs your attention in a full nelson and never lets go.
Not sure if you know this, but this song is made of two different takes. 0:58 when he sings "going" the take switches. The other take was in a different key and was slowed to match the song, that's why the vocals change.
@Jake Stockton not really. Unless your parents were into the Beatles and exposed them to you then Strawberry Fields could have gone completely under the radar.
My dad passed away yesterday. Earlier that morning we were watching this video. He loved the Beatles so much, to unwind we would watch their videos and just relax. RIP daddy ❤️ I hope John and George are up there with you

John's way to write lyrics makes me cry because he was a lyrical genius who deserved to live longer. ("It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out" makes me have faith in myself through this journey we call life.)
I will never forget that morning in November I was in my bedroom listening to the radio when the announcer said John Lennon was dead . I just sat on my bed and stared out the window . It just didn't seem real. But then again it never does.
One of the greatest songs of all time by the greatest band ever. The instumentation, from George's guitar to Ringo's drumming and the use of strings and horns is absolutely astounding. We'll never see another band like them - ever.
It’s crazy that this song was written about John’s childhood and when I listen to it, it brings me BACK to my childhood- sitting in my dimly-lit room on a school night just playing my guitar to this song over and over again. When I stumbled onto the Beatles and, subsequently, each of their albums; I’d go to school the next day listening to them on the bus ride to school on my iPod and be transported to another place. Magic
r k “The song is more about Lennon’s insecurities and his tough childhood. The title of the song refers to the Salvation Army-ran girl’s orphanage - dreamily called “Strawberry Field” - that Lennon lived near growing up in Liverpool.” www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2016/03/beatles-strawberry-fields-forever-meaning/ Simple Google-search. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds was based off Julian’s painting that he titled “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.”
It’s John who during this period took Acid everyday for months, he had over a 1000 trips...very obsessed to get this record correct as he had in his mind, but was never happy with it, even when this version was finally agreed, he still dwelled on it, that it wasn’t good enough, though he did love the tune, the melody the lyrics, personally I love this to high heaven, it’s an absolute masterpiece...Cranberry Sauce...xx
It can never be as good as the artist intended. It’s a fact of life, and a reflection of our human imperfection. This is nothing new: Tchaikovsky suffered from this relentless and unfolding pursuit of perfection to obsession. Even I, in my modest and humble artistic pursuits, seldom, if ever attain my intended results. Indeed, even a child will not manage to portray what his mind’s eye sees in a drawing. It affects us all, but I think it makes the pursuit even more interesting, and worthwhile.
@@cameronhughez Maybe so, the effects vary to what kind of stuff was around back then and what’s in the bag today. Don’t think someone like Lennon could be talked out of not taking it, everyday, with the amount of dope he smoked, daily, didn’t make much difference to him...:))
I was a young white boy in Apartheid South Africa. This music changed my life forever. Life could never be a simple straightforward common-sense narrative after the profound trashing of 'normality' in this song and 'A Day in the Life' from 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' and so many other songs by this extraordinary band. They saved my life.
strawberry fields forever is just different, it gives me a feeling that none other song can, for me this song is just unbelievable, the most divine masterpiece in the music history.
His drumming makes this song perfect. He does that a lot. He's never in-your-face with his drumming like, say, Keith Moon or John Bohnam, but it's always in service to the song. He's seriously underrated as a drummer IMHO.
@@AidanMinecraftMore They could have picked another drummer. In fact there is an old recording of a version made with another drummer. Ringo simply had the style that would later influence other drummers (for example the drumstick technique, not invented by him, but you know. Nowadays it's a "standard" because of Ringo).
When you listen to their remastered/mono songs with headphones, it's very easy to hear just how deeply they innovated not only music, but the sense of sound itself. 100 years from now, they will still be the biggest band in the world.
It's iconic! If you love The Beatles, you should definitely check out Kaz Bielinski! His single "Love Never Dies" is so good. Listen here: ua-cam.com/video/2vosjfyBXJM/v-deo.html&ab_channel=KAZBIELINSKIMUSIC
I can’t believe that for years I thought the Beatles were just some generic old-person band… Beatles fans I get it now! they’re GENIUSES and this song is one of their best, their early stuff and their later stuff all of it is amazing
I was in NYC in Dec 2000, on the 20th anniversary of John's murder, because my sister was there, dying of breast cancer. I was in her hospital room that afternoon, when it came on the tv that there was to be a huge celebration. She & I were 2 of the little kids in Feb 1964 who sat in front of the tv to see The Beatles on Ed Sullivan. The first concert we ever went to was The Beatles, in Memphis, August 19, 1966, four days before her 13th birthday. I was 9. In 2000, she was in and out of consciousness, the cancer had spread to her brain, but when she heard 'Strawberry Fields' and that people were gathering to honor John, she bolted up in her bed and ordered me to go. I didn't want to leave her, I knew she was very close to death. But, big sisters, you know... I went to Strawberry Fields in Central Park and it was amazing. So much love, such a feeling of the best of humanity, surrounded by so many people, strangers, but everyone peaceful, laughing, smiling, singing, crying. I have my sister to thank for so many things, and this was one of them. RIP Lynda. I love you.
I don't think I've ever read a comment on UA-cam that brought me to tears like yours did. My mother's favorite group was the Beatles. When she got sick the last five years of her life I cared for her 24-7. She was completely immobile and in a state of hopelessness. I knew I could get a smile out of her whenever I played her favorite Beatles album Rubber Soul, especially the song Norwegian Wood. I miss you mama
@ Thank you. I was 7 that day in 1964, my sister was 11. I'm sorry you've effectively lost your sister, too, but we have the memories that nobody can take away. We were lucky kids.

My age in 1967 - 12.
@@davidlightfoot348 I was 14. Still diggin the greatest musical act ever!
I remember when I went to Strawberry Fields I could see multiple people walking around playing this song and it made me think how much The Beatles meant to everyone. I will always love The Beatles and they changed this world for sure!
I had a similar experience in Central Park in NYC where there is the Strawberry Fields area in dedication to John Lennon. Someone was playing Lennon music on a boom box and a cop kicked him out of the park. So he stood right outside the park and blasted it. Everyone applauded and most of us had tears in our eyes. It was beautiful and reminds us how much he and the Beatles really meant to everyone. In NYC where you think of crime and mugging we had everyone together with love and that is thanks to their music.
@@whichgodofthousandsmeansno5306 Wow that's amazing! It was actually John Lennon's birthday a few days ago
BEATLES & STRAWBERRY FIELDS 4EVRRRRRRR
And for the better.
Completely agree. I visited Strawberry Fields recently. It had such a profound impact. It was almost déjà vu experience.
Imagine living in 1967 and hearing this song for the first time🤯🤯🤯
Did that.
I can remember vividly the first time I heard Sgt Pepper. My favorite memory of this tune is, oddly enough, Richie Havens playing it at Newport.
i wasn't alive in 1967 but when i first heard this music danm
I remember thinking "how are they doing that" any number of times. The whole album was turned on. I was in high school then, and Pepper's really changed a lot of things in music.
I did. Age seven, first grade.
Such a masterful composition and an incredible feat of production. You can break the song down and play it conventionally but it won't have that same dreamlike, otherworldly quality that the recorded version does. The Beatles and George Martin were pioneers when it came to using the studio as an instrument unto itself.
Fun Fact: The final song is actually 2 takes combined. From the first chorus to the first verse, John sang it normally. In the second chorus and onwards however, John sang the song on a faster tempo and higher key (different take). John liked both versions so much that he decided to use them both and told the engineers to do whatever they can to fuse the two different takes. This task however is very complicated since recordings on those times were done on tape unlike digitally today. So the engineers figured out to slow the second take to match the first take. In doing so it also changes the pitch of the second take and matched the first one. That is why on the second chorus onwards, John's voice sounded a bit "different". Cheers!
EDIT: The transition from the first take to the second one is in the second chorus at the "'cause I'm going to" line. It's on 1:00
Also the guitars are more distorted and drums much more intense sounding.
Just one of MANY reasons why this song is a masterpiece. I dare anything released today to have this level of absolute brilliance.
For the longest time, I thought it was Ringo singing lead.
You are correct sir👍🏻
Yeah you should look at what LSD does to human brain under a cat scan. The ability to hear new sounds does not suprise me at all. It was affectively the stuff that ends up in Lucy in the film Lucy. Weird LUCY I didnt even notice the connection!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA
i love how ringo patiently waits for his turn to pour paint on the piano
Same here. Love how his drumming each time changes the tempo and keeps us in the song
The harmony in this song is actually astonishing
The Beatles were so ahead of their time.
But why bro ?
I think it's less that they were ahead of their time, and more that they defined everything that came after.
@@giovinis There music was always breaking new ground, despite their overwhelming success, they were never satisfied just to turn out another song just like the last one Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane on the same single both could have topped the charts on their own... And both so different.... Before the Beatles were famous they refused to perform in theaters (in the USA) That were segregated with seats for black and white insisting that anyone could sit where they like or they would not perform ... The Beatles never just took the easy option and were not afraid to stand up for their principles... John in particular was always outspoken ....
Let’s call it timeless
Who are the Beatles?
Not only one of the greatest songs of all time, but also one of the greatest videoclips ever made. And it was just the beginning of the videoclips' era.

I’m 13 and have always known about them (how could you possibly avoid them) but I’ve been listening to and discovering their songs for the past few months and Strawberry Fields is definitely my favorite.

It’s absolutely crazy how good this quality is. Especially since this was from 1967. This literally could’ve been recorded today. It feels so eerie and futuristic, but that’s fitting for one of the best songs of all time.

I genuinely heard this song for the first time today, and musically it's one of the most impressive songs I've ever heard. The verse melody is so damn good and the arrangement is nuts. Grabs your attention in a full nelson and never lets go.
Not sure if you know this, but this song is made of two different takes. 0:58 when he sings "going" the take switches. The other take was in a different key and was slowed to match the song, that's why the vocals change.
@Jake Stockton not really. Unless your parents were into the Beatles and exposed them to you then Strawberry Fields could have gone completely under the radar.

It’s crazy that this song was written about John’s childhood and when I listen to it, it brings me BACK to my childhood- sitting in my dimly-lit room on a school night just playing my guitar to this song over and over again. When I stumbled onto the Beatles and, subsequently, each of their albums; I’d go to school the next day listening to them on the bus ride to school on my iPod and be transported to another place.

It’s John who during this period took Acid everyday for months, he had over a 1000 trips...very obsessed to get this record correct as he had in his mind, but was never happy with it, even when this version was finally agreed, he still dwelled on it, that it wasn’t good enough, though he did love the tune, the melody the lyrics, personally I love this to high heaven, it’s an absolute masterpiece...Cranberry Sauce...xx
I agree ⭐️✨💫
The inner groove.
It can never be as good as the artist intended. It’s a fact of life, and a reflection of our human imperfection. This is nothing new: Tchaikovsky suffered from this relentless and unfolding pursuit of perfection to obsession. Even I, in my modest and humble artistic pursuits, seldom, if ever attain my intended results. Indeed, even a child will not manage to portray what his mind’s eye sees in a drawing. It affects us all, but I think it makes the pursuit even more interesting, and worthwhile.
acid doesn’t even work everyday ... there’s a 4-6 day threshold in which you aren’t able to feel the effects of a standard dose, whatever it may be.
@@cameronhughez Maybe so, the effects vary to what kind of stuff was around back then and what’s in the bag today. Don’t think someone like Lennon could be talked out of not taking it, everyday, with the amount of dope he smoked, daily, didn’t make much difference to him...:))

I was in NYC in Dec 2000, on the 20th anniversary of John's murder, because my sister was there, dying of breast cancer. I was in her hospital room that afternoon, when it came on the tv that there was to be a huge celebration. She & I were 2 of the little kids in Feb 1964 who sat in front of the tv to see The Beatles on Ed Sullivan. The first concert we ever went to was The Beatles, in Memphis, August 19, 1966, four days before her 13th birthday. I was 9. In 2000, she was in and out of consciousness, the cancer had spread to her brain, but when she heard 'Strawberry Fields' and that people were gathering to honor John, she bolted up in her bed and ordered me to go. I didn't want to leave her, I knew she was very close to death. But, big sisters, you know... I went to Strawberry Fields in Central Park and it was amazing. So much love, such a feeling of the best of humanity, surrounded by so many people, strangers, but everyone peaceful, laughing, smiling, singing, crying. I have my sister to thank for so many things, and this was one of them. RIP Lynda. I love you.

@ Thank you. I was 7 that day in 1964, my sister was 11. I'm sorry you've effectively lost your sister, too, but we have the memories that nobody can take away. We were lucky kids.
