Love you!!

73 year old here. It warms my heart when younger generations appreciate songs like this. I feel you really "get it". And with no interruptions! Great job
Thanks a lot ❤️
I too appreciate that there were no interruptions. 👏🏻😊.
As did I (maybe WE) when we heard good stuff from the 30s thru 50s. Wow! Swing!! Yeah, baby !
This man of 60 years of age feels exactly the same as you do good sir.😊
Same age and appreciation.
I'm 23 years old and The Beatles have been my favorite band since ever. One simply needs to listen to their music to realize why they are the best band ever.
On my deathbed... I can truly say... I was a teen when the Beatles made records. And, it was glorious!! And it IS Timeless.
ME TOO @scottski51!!
Amen! No one who did not live through that time can know how absolutely amazing and wonderful their work was then and, for folks like us, is today. Peace and love.
May peace be with you!!!
I'm with you Mate
God bless you dear one…Say hi to John, George, Jim, Janis, Eva, Jimi, David….and all the musicians who have touched our hearts…
I experienced exactly what you are experiencing 54 years ago. When the record was brand new, our friends sat around almost in shock at what beauty we were listening to.
I bought that when new too. I’ve heard that song hundreds of times. And yet, I just got chills from it. They never disappoint.
Trouble is I’ve been waiting since 1969 for something that beats or even matches it!
@johnlindsay3820 love the acappela version on 'Love' ❤
Every Beatles song is different, but one that provokes a similar response is “Across the Universe”
I was just thinking that. Another poetic, haunting experience.
i believe Lennon said something to the effect that it was the only song he ever wrote that he considered to be poetry.
Not enough reactors react to this song. The wordplay is brilliant, yet simple, and the harmonies, etc.
Agreed!
The Beatles are the greatest and most influential band that ever existed. I saw them the first time when I was 8 on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1964 and they changed my life forever. I subscribed to your channel. Many of their songs will give you goosebumps. I’m looking forward to more Beatles reactions.
I just love the diversity of the Beatles, I'm happy to follow wherever they take me and I've never been disappointed!
This makes me cry, its so beautiful. You should have kept going and played the medly that followed. Thanks for this.
Surely, it's amazing!
When I bought that album in 1969 I locked myself in my room for two weeks just listening to it. I just finished recording it on my acoustic guitar.
There are so many layers and facets of the Beatles - it's a deep, deep dive. There music encompasses so many levels and genres it's amazing. I love this song so much.
I’m excited!!
@@sabina1118 you should be! The journey will not disappoint!
@@sabina1118 Hello. Lovley reaction as always 🥰 I got an idea of what you should do if you feel like it! And that is to react to all Sabaton's songs in all the albums they have! What I mean is to go all in with Sabaton, Even if it will take time as you react to other music too!😊 But it makes absolutely nothing if it will take time if you decide to do it! And the songs you have already reacted to, you can then skip if you want! I am sure you would have loved it and not regretted it!
I want to recommend more songs to you too!😎 If there are some that you have already reacted to, you can ignore them!😊

@@sabina1118....thank you for sharing....as fellow Irish scouser, Ringo Starr would say...peace love and understanding....❤❤😊😊...E...love is all you need....
The whole Abbey road album is a work of art. Leave it to the Beatles to insert the most beautiful yet underrated quote to show ones love for another " Love is old love is new. Love is all love is you" ❤️
This song is being rediscovered by choral groups, who recognize the beauty of the harmonies. We all did when it was released. A brief piece of spectacular brilliance.
And a piece of a brilliant album.
I've just come from listening to If I Needed Someone - these guys could REALLY bust out the harmonies. Sun King also!
"Makes me feel like breathing deep." yes... it puts you into a meditative mood. This song is simple and uncluttered, but there is a lot going on in my head when I hear it. *Because the sky is blue it makes me cry* wow just amazing. Thanks Sabina ❤☮
It is amazing indeed! ❤️
I got the album, Meet the Beatles, for Christmas in 1963. I was thirteen. The iconic Robert Freeman photograph of the group in half-shadow was very mysterious to me. Who are these guys? They became the most influential quartet in the history of music. The blend of their voices in harmony was unparalleled. Here in 2024, they continue to gain new fans with their eclectic songs. Harrison once said, " The Beatles will exist without us. " Truer words were never spoken.
The entire lp deserves a serious listening.
I agree, the lyrics and harmonies are excellent. So many great Beatles tunes... there is not a deeper rabbit hole.
Excited!
The Beatles are the Voice of The Gods.
The Beatles were so unique in their different sounds
I was born in 1965, my older brothers were 13 years and eight years older than me. Some of my earliest memories are attached to Beatles music and no matter how many times in my life I hear the songs, Penny Lane and hello, goodbye especially, something in my brain spirals back in time and for a moment I know what it feels like to be 4 years old. Now that is a trip. So inevitably whenever I hear the Beatles, mostly what I get from it is comfort, safety and innocence and all is right with my world.
Yup, I remember getting ready to take a shower when Strawberry Fields came on my transiter radio. It was raining. I stuck my face up against the window screen, letting the rain fall on my face.
Felt very secure. ❤😊
Also born in 1965. What the Beatles did was unrepeatable. Greatest band there ever has been, or ever will be. When I see one of these reactions videos, I’m always like “It’s a Beatles song, how can you not have heard it ?”
I'd recommend just listening to the rest of the songs after Because, all in a row, at the same time. A beautiful medley of songs.
The genius of John Lennon and producer George Martin. John was inspired to write this when he heard his wife Yoko playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. He asked her to play the chords backwards and wrote the lyrics. "The lyrics speak for themselves.... no imagery, no obscure meanings," Lennon said about the song. As for the sound, Lennon, McCartney and Harrison recorded their three vocals three times, creating a nine-voice recording, with Harrison adding a Moog Synthesizer, Martin playing the intro on electronic harpsichord and Lennon mimicking the same part on guitar. It took five hours to record, and when it was done it ended up being the members favorite song on the Abbey Road album.
I've called attention to this song several times; but because most "reactors" are looking for "bangers" they flit from one thing to another without making any effort to actually LISTEN.
This song is astonishingly beautiful. And the lyric is John's achieved minimalism.
Another instance is his "I Want You (She's So Heavy)"; and that is majestic.
Who played the tuba solo ?
@@simchabaruch7023it's George's Moog synth played by Paul
Because é linda mas Minha música favorita do Abbey road na verdade é o Medley Golden slumbers carry that weight The end uma obra prima do Paul McCartney.
And to think of the primitive technology they had in 1969. The word "digital" had not been invented yet
Beautiful song from my second favorite Beatles album, my favorite being Revolver
Correct!
Time for you to hear much more of the greatest band of all time. So many songs like this and not like this but all great. All their songs put you in a mood
Man, John was such a versatile song writer. An absolutely stunning piece of work from all parties involved.
One of my all time favourite Beatles songs is Elenor Rigby
It is a fantastic song. The lyrics are brilliant and clever, but they are very dark. Would keep it well away from anyone suffering from depression.
You REALLY need to listen to that album. It'll knock yer socks off.
Yes!!!
I will!
The genius of the Beatles and george martin❤️🤘i do believe mozart, bach and other ancient composers would be in awe of many of the arrangements🤘❤️
Though it is impossible to pick a favorite Beatles song, when people insist, this is generally the one I choose.
I have loved this song since it was new. I'm very glad that you are discovering these heroes of my youth. Keep investigating their work; you won't be sorry.
"Unlike anything I've heard before," you said. THAT is the essence of The Beatles. I really enjoy your reactions and will look fo reward to more discussions about The Beatles (or music in general.)
I appreciate your response.
As a group the Beatles released something like 236 original songs. Given that there's certainly plenty of room for variety. An amazing body of work created within a virtual handful of years.
Don't forget the twenty something songs they gave to others as well.
I think you would really enjoy their song Across the Universe
There are two versions of Across the Universe. One that was reaeased on a World Wildlife Fund album and one on their Let It Br album. The WWF version is available on the Beatles Past Masters Vol 2. and was originally recorded during the Sgt. Pepper era. The Let it Be version contains choir and strings added by Phil Spector
isn't there a stripped down version on Let It Be Naked?
You should listen to the “Abbey Road Medley” that starts on the next song after Because! It’s an amazing group of songs, “mashed” together, in a way, that leads to the last song of the medley, called “The End”. Keep going with your Beatles Rabbit Hole!
It's an amazing idea
Tienes razón, hay que escucharlo una tras otra para descubrir este, para mi el álbum más completo de los Beatles y el mejor, creo.
Yes. The medley is a must listen and another astounding work of popular music. I have listened to several current cover bands performing the Abbey Road medley exactly as recorded. All of the groups have had extremely accomplished musicians and singers doing the work. As a result of listening to these great players and singers performing the medley, I gained a greater level of respect for the musicianship of each of the four Beatles. Each of them really were awfully good at what they did.
The story is that this song was inspired by John hearing Yoko playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and asking her to play the chords backwards.
George talked about how difficult it was to get those harmonies down, even after all those years of playing and harmonizing together. If you try singing each part, it's REALLY tricky. And a very cool chord progression that John came up with after listening to something by Beethoven. He tried to play what he'd heard 'backwards' and came up with those chords. One of their best, but they had a lot of 'bests'! One of my favorites by them with three part harmony is 'This Boy', and there's a really great middle section where John just belts it out. Another of my favorites by them that most people don't know is 'I Don't Want To Spoil The Party'. It has a really cool intro/outro riff and the vocals are just so good (like most of their songs). I like recommending songs that aren't your typical ones, that people might not be familiar with. 'Dear Prudence' is fantastic, but a bit more 'known'.
Intense, overwhelming and the movement of harmonies and play on words blend to a sublime symphony, this is why the Beatles are considered one of the greatest composers of all time...
Pick any Beatles song at random, and you hear something very different, but always something perfectly performed and recorded. That was their magic.
I watched a video of a classical composer who is an avid fan of the Beatles music. He commented "The Beatles never strayed very far from the ordinary in music. But they always made it magic." Well put.
Especially when you add the genius of Sir George Martin!
New to your channel and I just subscribed after watching your reaction to this. I was a kid when the Beatles grew up and I'm a musician of many decades, and it's just fascinating to watch people discover them. I mean really discover them.
I don't know how many times I've heard this Beatles song Because throughout my lifetime, but every single time I listen to it, I'm just blown away by the haunting beauty of it, and it's so lush, and yet there's so much anguish in it as well. It's just absolutely poignant.
They had a huge catalog for only being around for a decade, and they evolved so much but they were always fascinating for the time that they were in. I've heard everything in their catalog multiple times, and the vast majority of them, including some of their really early stuff many many times.
Something I thought of while watching your reaction was from a few years earlier, and it was definitely a hit but I'm not sure most people think of it right off the bat, and it is called Rain. Even though it was slightly earlier, you can see this tendency to include all these vocal intervals and arrangements and textures and feeling and playing with the perceived tempo of it, and it's really fascinating.
For some reason, I always think of Paperback Writer when I think of Rain. And I've played them back-to-back so many times and I've heard them back-to-back on the radio before.
For most other bands, Rain would have been their greatest hit, for The Beatles, it was a 'B' side to Paperback Writer.
Thanks and welcome!
Dear Prudence (White album)
Prudence Farrow was Frank Sinatra's sister in law.
A great story behind Dear Prudence.. As with many Beatles songs.
Yeah she would really like Dear Prudence
The Beatles are so long ago that the only time they used a Moog synthisizer was on this, their final album. Just 4 guys who actually played their instruments & sang.
One of the first to use it too.
I think you'll find that 'Let It Be' was their final album, released in 1970.
@@-GrumpyOldMan Let It Be was their last released (recorded in January '69), but Abbey Road was their last recorded (June '69)
If you want to hear the opposite side of The Beatles, try I Want You (She's So Heavy) from the same album👍
AND "OH DARLING" and "HERE COMES THE SUN."
Loved your reaction, young lady. It's great to see a new generation discovering the music I grew up with, and the Beatles is definitely a rabbit hole worth exploring. I hope to see more in the future. Love, peace, and hair grease. ✌️
I have NEVER seen anyone react to this beautiful song that is in my top 5 Beatles tracks. I play it often and don’t know why it’s not heard on here! Loved the reaction!
Thanks! ❤️
I was on leave from Vietnam in late November 1969 in Sydney, Australia, when Abby Road came out. I went with a beautiful young woman to her room and listened to it at night. "Because" took me away from the world for a while... and that was enough. It reminded me that beauty STILL existed in the world, if only for one night in Australia. 54 years later, it still takes me to that place of beauty. Thank you....
I love. LOVE! That she listened all the way through! So many reaction vids the listener turns off after ten seconds. She just loves and fully experiences it. Then tells us. Thank you. One of the best reactions I've seen;; and I love reactions. "Straight into my soul"; like so many Beatle songs.
Thanks a lot! ❤️
This was from 1969. Going for live performances wouldn't be a good tactic with the Beatles because they quit touring in 1966, half way through their recording career. One reason for this was the "Beatlemania" phenomenon of audiences packed with girls screaming so loud they drowned out the sound of the band which would ruin the recording, and make it impossible for the band members to hear each other. The 1966 amplification systems in stadiums couldn't compete with the noise. After they quit touring they could use the studio to create music they couldn't reproduce live anyway, and they were groundbreaking in their use of studio techniques.
The best quality live performances would be from early 1969 on the rooftop of the Abbey Road Stufios. This is used in the Let it Be documentary and Peter Jackson’s more recent Beatles documentary.
Although I will say that if you watch and listen to some of their live performances where the screaming is deafening, (if you were there), they are noticeably on beat and in tune. Probably from all that time playing in Hamburg.
@@TheMerryPupI read an article where Ringo said he had to watch John and Paul's asses moving, their feet tapping and their heads nodding at places like Shea Stadium to know where he was in the song.
There are several LIVE concert performances where the audio is good despite the screaming that she NEEDS to watch to get an idea of WHAT transpired at their concerts. I saw them Live in concert TWICE in 1964 and 1966 when I was 17 and 19 years old.
@@patticrichton1135 I still think that since she isn't familiar with their music at all, she would get the best first impression of what they had to offer by checking out the music on their albums first. This would include the music they made in the studio during the second half of their history, and maybe some live performances of their earlier stuff after. I think they progressed as musicians and songwriters after 1966 (I was 17), and I wouldn't want her to base her main impression of the group's output on the early years. That's why I like to follow people online who discover them by seeing their progression as they listen chronologically. Maybe when you hear the live recordings you can almost relive your teenage experiences and all of the excitement of the situation - but they wouldn't have the same effect on her, because she wasn't there.
One of my favourite Beatle songs along with 'Fool on the hill'. An incredible band
It made me shiver in 1970 and it still does.
John, Paul and George sang this 3 times. So there's nine vocal harmonies.
Because the world is ROUND it TURNS me on
Because the sky is BLUE it makes me SAD
Because the WIND is high it BLOWS my mind
Such a simple play on words but yet so profound. Like so many Beatles songs. Especially John. John could take today's newspaper or an old play bill and turn them into songs with meaning and emotion. He could even do it with gibberish. I am the Walrus resonates with me.
All quintessential Lennon puns.
Yes, trippy, and that's how it was described when it first came out.
Using text to comment rather than interrupting the music - brilliant! Why don't more reactors do this? I'm impressed. A tip for exploring the magic of the Beatles: go to the original albums, not the greatest hits rehashes and compilations. They were incredibly inventive in the studio, with their secret weapon George Martin, and set the bar high through the mid to late 60s. They experimented a lot so chances are for every song you think 'meh', the next one will send you to musical heaven. Bon voyage, ma'am.
Thank you! ☺️
Isn't the reason the copyright restrictions?
I don't know why some channels get away with no interruptions.
@@tommythompson9565Copyright is applied inconsistently, just like UA-cam moderation in general.
I'm 67 and Beatles music always puts me in a trance.
You're right about the wordplay. The world turns. The wind blows. You cry because you're blue. And some of the best harmonies.
Yes. Incredible lyrics AND harmonies!
Amazing tune. One of my all time favs.
Love your thoughts running across the screen while the song is playing. Doesn't disturb the song so we hear it uninterrupted. Nice touch. I haven't seen anyone else do this. Well done. Subscribed.
"trippy" is the perfect word to describe this beautiful song. as is "hypnotic" and "mystical." this is the 2nd song of side 2 of abbey road that follows "here comes the sun" and is followed by the mini-opera that closes the rest of the album. the beatles were just at the top of the game. they kept their music fresh, fun and interesting.
one way they did this is by providing surprise or false endings to some of the songs. "rain," "strawberry fields forever" and "helter skelter" are examples of this unique feature of theirs. on the "abbey road" album they added a strange and false ending to each album side. the beatles were full of surprises and they had the talent to make those surprises work so effectively. its just shocking how really, really consistently good they were. thanks for the video.
I just turned 70. The Beatles were the soundtrack of my teenage years and beyond. Still as Incredible as when I first heard it….to me the best ever👍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Never expect a certain sound from the Beatles because they always surprise us.
Next great song Oh Darling
Or just keep going with the medley and play You Never Give Me Your Money next.
The first rock concert of many I would attend in my life was the Beatles in '66. What a start!
That was beautiful, I'm totally subscribing. The Beatles have so many types of songs, entire genres can be traced back to single Beatle songs. The very next song on this album is fantastic, "You Never Give Me Your Money". Every song flows so great into the next one that as soon as I hear one song, I just automatically want to hear the next one! This was at the very end of the career, their last album. John Lennon wrote this song. He sang it with Paul McCartney and George Harrison. Reportedly, Ringo Starr (the 4th Beatle) was standing right next to them, even though he wasn't singing.
Thank you and welcome! ❤️
That’s a true road to classics 😊 that’s a long time ago that I heard that one, and this is (luckily) not one of the usual suspects. You bring back memories.
Genius ❤❤❤❤❤
On Anthology 3 there is version of Because with just isolated vocals.... Worth a listen :)
The Love album has them, with chirping birds in the background. It is so amazing. I've always wanted to go to Vegas and watch the Cirque De Soleil Love show.
The Best vocal in the World ...
I think you said everything I felt when I first heard it. You really nailed it in my opinion! My older sisters were buying Beatles albums as they came out. I was around 12 and just starting to learn guitar. "Because" has always been in my top 10 of theirs.
From the album Abbey Road. It’s listening to these lesser known tracks, that you realise the true depth of the Beatles music and its high levels of quality. Sgt Pepper for me is their finest album…very different to their earlier work around the mid 60’s. Some say that The Beatles were the template for the future of music. Sabina..glad you liked this, a lesser known track that is well worth highlighting.
And it's on 1969 !!!
wonderful reaction girl! The Beatles is an almost endless treasure chest full of gems. Timeless music.
I don't want to know anyone who doesn't rate The Beatles as the best group ever; way, way above any other!
I recommend you listen to progressive rock, like Genesis, Yes, Camel, ELP, etc.
@@pacofgarcia5998 I'll give it a miss.
@@user-tu5ej5lg2c Well, if you like things like 'Because' by the Beatles, you might like things that were done by prog rock bands, on one side. And putting a band above others does not make sense, on the other side... there are no Olympic games for music, just taste.: from a 50 years Beatles fan 😊.
A few years after my initial encounter with the Beatles' music, that became an open door to other musics...
For me Pink Floyd is the best band by far. Beatles i don't like at all. I also like very much bands like Eloy, Cure, Joy Division, Black Sabbath, Archive and a little less Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, etc. Beatles are not my style...
@@koszim Floyd is a one trick pony. Loved them as I grew up with them, but you have to be in the right mood and like I said they have one trick, nice trick but repetitive.
The greatest band of all time!
Just to start,i recommend you listen:Across The Universe,While My Guitar Gently Weeps,In My Life,Nowhere Man,Sexy Sadie,Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End,Something,I Should Have Known Better,And I Love Her,Ticket To Ride,Penny Lane,Let It Be,Here Comes The Sun,Got To Get You Into My Life,And Your Bird Can Sing,Strawberry Fields Forever. Greetings from Argentina.🖐
Your Reactions make 100% Sense. I'm a 74 year old Swedish man and The Beatles were my "Guitar Teachers" from October 1963, (and forever onwards ...), when they played Live in Swedish TV. What a Music Bomb of Exitement, Joy, Love and Humour that show was. The Beatles still to this day are the main inspiration for my Guitar Playing and some of their songs still hold their Musical secrets no matter how concentrated I listen through my Headphones with my Gibson J45 in my hands. Enough of Me now ...
Your reactions Sabina send shivers through me also, a double Joy of seeing that The Genius of Beatle's Music was Not an illusion among us 60:s Youngsters but a True Force of Love and Joy given to anyone who listens for real. And Thank You for texting on the Screen Your inner feelings and Thoughts, letting us enjoy "Because" uninterupted. Your video as a Whole is in some kind of Master Class, Honestly.
I don't know if You already also have reacted to "The Sun King", another Masterpiece in kind of the same Emotional Realm as "Because". If Not - please react to that too.
Thanks from Stockholm, Sweden ...
And, By the Way: That October 1963 TV-Show was the first Beatles Tv-Show recorded Outside of Great Britain, much because of two Young Swedish TV-journalists Claes Burling and Kersti Adams Ray. They had met The Beatles half a Year earlier in England and gave them a hopeful invitation to Sweden, which became a Reality 30 October 1963 in the pop show "Drop In".
As a music lover, you must become aquainted with this entire album. You could go song by song on it, except of course for the Side 2 Medley, where short pieces are woven all together. Lovely reaction to this beautiful song - which you can play again soon.
The Beatles is a must, every song is wonderful
The Beatles songs have a way of transporting you to other places in your mind and soul!
Yes, this song was a clear prove of that!
A part dire que je suis toujours émue en ecoutant a mon age les Beatles, qui me touche toujours au plus profond de moi meme et que ces 4 genies ont changer le monde en bien
Ils me manquent et au monde aussi
Beatles forever
The lyrics are trippy and reflect the hippie era.
One of the finest masterpieces by the great John Lennon.
Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱.
Finally someone with a reaction like my own to this!
The Beatles are still the best ever
There's nothing like The Beatles three part harmony!!
Great reaction Sabina!! Fully agree - this song slows time down (even moreso when herbal substances are involved! LOL) First time hearing this, I was transfixed! It soon became one of my favourites on this album, and there are SO many! The entirety of side 2, to me, is just one long song...actually, all of Abbey Road is. Perfection doesn't even begin to describe it.
Just wait until the Medley that follows Because...it's magnificent! Cheers!
Thanks a lot! ❤️
77 years old here. i saw the Beatles two nights in row. Friday night in San Diego then Saturday night at the Hollywood Bowl. A group named Cannibal and the headhunters opened with their one hit, Land of 1000 dances. My favorite Beatles songs are Girl, Here, there, and everywhere, And I love her, Eleanor Rigby, Tomorrow never knows, Let it Be, Good Days sunshine ( as far as I know, this is the only song in rock history to end on the bridge, or middle part. I see videos of grade school children singing Beatle songs in their choir. Their music is enduring.
one of the most underrated Songs. A Masterpiece, and which other band of the 60s can do it like this?
The Legacy is Eternal!
There's also an a cappella version of the song, that's AMAZING.
And they used some harmonies for "Now and then".
I grew up with this as my favourite album, and this song actually makes me tear up when the sky is blue, etc. This whole LP is genius
Because the song is great it makes me cry.
My girl, you need to know all their music!!
I get tears whenever I hear this song. This whole album is incredible and iconic. 😊
It was your facial expressions that hooked me, wow! Bravo! Great reaction, so much emotional content on your face! Ya, welcome to real rock and roll!
Thanks!
being a huge Beatles fan I like everything by them, yes some more than others and this is one of the best off of one of the best rock albums ever.
The Beatles' most gorgeous song in my opinion - and one of their most overlooked. Really glad you liked it so much. Your reaction was spot on. To give you a good taste of the Beatles from different periods, I recommend the albums A Hard Day's Night and Sgt Pepper. Also outstanding: Rubber Soul, Revolver and Abbey Road (where Because is from).
You express well how our feelings are touched by this masterwork
Genial os Beatles! Os maiores e melhores! ❤
I'm 71, and this song remains as fresh as the day I first heard it. As the poster below notes, this song, like so much of the Beatles' work, will continue to entrance younger generations for many decades. Of course, it's impossible for me not to hear "you never give me your money...." as soon as the track ends, and eagerly await the rest of this masterpiece.
Watching this almost brought tears to my eyes. I remember waiting for this album to be available and our hearing it for the first time. Watching you feel the music was so intense and remindful of my youthful growth in appreciation of music. They had the courage to make music like no one else. They were the musical leaders that no one could really copy.
Every year since 1980, on December 8 I listen to Imagine, not just for that one song, but the gift of music Lennon gave us. Seeing this video reminds me how good they were and how much better they are now with the passage of time. Like the aging of a fine wine.
