    A Helter skelter was a type of amusement ride found primarily in British fairgrounds and beaches from the start of the 20th century to present day. It's basically a lighthouse with a large spiral slide running around the outside of it.

    The thing that gets me for some reason - probably because I'm so old now! - is that when they finally called it quits in 1970, after all that they'd achieved, they were all still in their 20s!
    That's just insane.

    The Beatles it seems to me really didn't have a genre they did exclusively but rather took on everything in their short time together and for that I love their music as I do a current artist by the name of Poppy who mixes up her sound very much. The Beatles and Poppy are my favourite artists because with them both you get variety and cutting sound always.

  • @pizzarellayt
    @pizzarellayt 7 місяців тому +6

    One of my favorite things to say about this song is "the first heavy metal song is a Beatles song about a slide."
    The Beatles never liked doing the same thing. By a certain point, almost every song needed something unique. The instrumental of "Rain" is slowed down, while the lead vocals are sped up, as well as the reversed vocals at the end, and "Helter Skelter" was made to be the loudest, craziest song possible after Paul McCartney saw that The Who made "the heaviest song ever" and wanted to out-do them. You should definitely show Gabe some more later Beatles stuff, like "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" or "I Am The Walrus" (you shoud definitely do the new remix of that one).

    If you picture a squat, lighthouse shaped building, with a children's slide spiraling around and down the outside of it and the stairs to the top on the inside, that is a helter skelter. Some of the lyrics make a little more sense if you know that.

    The Crows cartoon were Heckel and Jeckyl. Charles Mansons was convinced that the Beatles were prophets or angels from the Bible's Book of Revelations Specifically, Revelations 9, coincidentally, the Beatles had an experimental song on the White Album called Revolution #9. Manson thought Helter Skelter was code for a race war. He wanted to get the war started by killing people he had grudges on and he hoped it would be blamed on Blacks. He even attempted to get in contact with the Beatles. He was a friend of Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys and Dennis tried to help Charles get into the music industry.

  • @patticrichton1135

    You should react to ALL the songs on the WHITE ALBUM because it has such an eclectic mix of styles, to SHOW HIM how VERSATILE their music is, ALL their songs are different. WHAT he has to UNDERSTAND is that WITHOUT those early songs from 1963 through 1966, he would NOT have "HELTER SKELTER. If he LISTENS to all their albums starting with their first album and go chronologically through 1970 when they broke up. The BEATLES changed with EVERY ALBUM. I can't believe he thinks they don't change when he only heard 3 songs. PLAY HIM "HERE COMES THE SUN," then, "OH DARLING," " then "REVOLUTION," then "WITHIN YOU and WITHOUT YOU," then "ELEANOR RIGBY," then "BACK IN THE USSR" "OB LA DI OB LA DA" then "DEAR PRUDENCE," then "WHEN I'M 64," "HEY BULLDOG," "YESTERDAY," "GET BACK," "I'VE GOT A FEELING" "ACROSS THE UNIVERSE," "BEING FOR THE BENEFIT OF Mr. KITE" the side 2 of ABBEY ROAD (the MEDLEY all the way through" Also "FOR YOU BLUE," "HEY JUDE" (and do the VIDEO for it) MAYBE then he can see how many different styles they play!!

    The Beatles of course had an amazing variety of sounds, always experimenting and innovating, each album's release a major event because you never knew what new thing you were going to hear. Everyone who loves the Beatles has their own very individual list of favourites as well as 'meh' songs, and some like the earlier and some prefer the later stuff, etc..
    The problem here has been, I think, that one of you is playing the songs on HIS favourites list, which are not the ones that would appeal to your friend, who's into heavier stuff. So he now has the impression that 'this' is the the Beatles 'sound' and style (from what I've heard here, they've tended to be the earlier/ more poppy and/or sweeter, gentler songs), little realising there's something in the Beatles extraordinary repertoire for everyone. They INVENTED or at least popularised most of the genres of music to come, and virtually every musician who started out in band in the 1960s or 70s will tell you how they were inspired to take up music by the Beatles.
    If you haven't already, try playing him some different, heavier things like Come Together, I Want You (She's So Heavy), Birthday, Tomorrow Never Knows, maybe even A Day in the Life. They won't be YOUR favourites, and you might be left puzzling over why others like them, but they might well turn out to be his, and at least get his toes through that door into the ageless magical mystery tour that is the Beatles Experience. Helter Skelter was a great start!

    It is not so much that the band that is changing especially with the Beatles or the Stones, it is the times that change, and even the technology. They started in the times of very EARLY Pop songs, totally controlled by the promoters and Record Companies, a lot of bands didn't / couldn't even write their own songs. Apart from a couple of early covers, the Beatles did. They were in at the beginnings of the Merseybeat, which replaced US rock like Presley, or Skiffle. They became big enough Stars to be able to control their own band directions. They progressed through the swinging Sixties, through the Hippy era, Through the drugs and LSD periods into the fascination with the Indian / Asian culture. At the same time Technology was changing, new electronic instruments, new sounds from thing like Organs and Synthesisers. New amplifiers, new effects, new types of Recording. Their first records were recorded in Mono, they were there when Stereo came along, then when digital sounds arrived. They went past the records being recorded on maybe two tracks, to the mixing of 8 or 10 tracks (never made it to the era of practically unlimited tracks and layering of today). They changed with the times and sound nothing like they did in the early 60's. Some bands don't change, it is true. For me the Best bands do progress

    Volume is not talent. You seem to confuse that.

    This is Paul McCartney live, not the Beatles from the White Album. Listen to the original. It is FAR superior. Please.

    Will not view this channel again.... Thanks for the early warning on your lack of appreciation for the Beatles.
