    It’s not often commented on, but Hal Blaine’s simple, precise drumming really sets the tone and helps make the song. RIP, Hal Blaine, one of the great drummers of the rock era.

    • @davidr2704
      @davidr2704 4 місяці тому +4

      The drums are very loud and present in the mix, yet it sounds great because a) he listened well, b) he was really aiming to suit the music (didn't just do his personal style every time like many drummers do), and c) his judgements about WHAT would suit the music were usually spot-on. I was going to say Hal Blaine kind of made this song what it is, which is somewhat true, but then I realized that one of the best things about this song is that EVERYBODY on this recording nailed it and they ALL deserve that same credit. Doesn't happen every day.

    My grandmother used to play this song, I remember so vividly. Also, the fact that this beautiful joyful song came out right when America was facing some of its toughest times, and between 1963-1965 this was the era of the civil rights movement and the fact that both of my grandparents March with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and before marches took place my grandparents would get together with local civil rights leaders in the community and would play music and feed the community and my grandmother said this song was always a favorite amongst people. This is such a beautiful feel good song. Brings so much joy. ❤

      What an amazing heritage you have! Are your grandparents still alive? They must write a book about their experiences with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and with the local civil rights leaders. This was such an important part of history, especially black history, and stories like your grandparents need to be written and handed down to future generations. My brother marched in civil rights marches as well. I was too young at the time but remember in horror seeing the police brutality of blacks on the news.

    Lyrics
    The night we met I knew I needed you so
    And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
    So won't you say you love me?
    I'll make you so proud of me
    We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go
    So won't you, please (be my, be my baby)
    Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
    Say you'll be my darlin' (be my, be my baby)
    Be my baby now (my one and only baby)
    Whoa-oh-oh-oh
    I'll make you happy, baby, just wait and see
    For every kiss you give me, I'll give you three
    Oh, since the day I saw you
    I have been waiting for you
    You know I will adore you 'til eternity
    So won't you, please (be my, be my baby)
    Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
    Say you'll be my darlin' (be my, be my baby)
    Be my baby now (my one and only baby)
    Whoa-oh-oh-oh
    So come on and, please (be my, be my baby)
    Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
    Say you'll be my darlin' (be my, be my baby)
    Be my baby now (my one and only baby)
    Whoa-oh-oh-oh
    Be my little baby? (My one and only baby)
    Oh-oh-oh (be my, be my baby)
    Oh (my one and only baby)

    You never know how much you'll be affected by seeing one of the figures of your youth pass, but this one really hit me. I was listening to Eddie Money's 'Take Me Home Tonight' on the radio in the last week and thinking what a cool tribute it was to Ronnie. I was really taking in the different pieces she sang in the song, wondering if she voiced her parts in the studio while the rest of the song was being tracked - just really listening to it.
    She was *so* cool. This song was so perfectly in the groove of what was happening when it was released. Man, I hate to hear this!

    This song changed pop music forever! Brian Wilson was basically obsessed with it (Don't Worry Baby was a response to Be My Baby according to him) and the rest is history.

    There’s something about the way she sings “Be my baby now” that just sends chills down my spine. I’m honestly surprise nobody on here is talking about the diction and tone that she used. Because it pairs hauntingly with this wall of sound beat. Tbh I’m not even sure if it is even classified as singing on that particular note. It’s more of a melancholic wail. Like she is truly yearning for whoever this guy is to just be hers. Which is given more effect and power with the vintage production.

      If you really want to listen to something spine-chilling, listen to anything by Al Bowlly, the grain, the cadence, the wear and tear, and the premise of some of his songs make for a great spooky song.

    Man, 2022 is barely 2 weeks old and we've lost Sidney Poitier, Dwayne Hickman, Peter Bogdanovich, Bob Saget , and Max Julien. Now, Ronnie Spector has checked out. Definitely the defining voice of my favorite Girl Group, The Ronettes. Thanks for the fine vocal, Ronnie, on Be My Baby. You made it a genuine teen anthem in 1963. Love, Peace and Mercy to you, Ronnie Spector.
