dont know if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all the new series on InstaFlixxer. I've been streaming with my gf for the last days =)
Agreed! Lennon was the master at coming up with the three-part harmonies. "This Boy" and "Nowhere Man" are the pinnacles of the form. "Because" seems somehow pro forma, and "Yes it is" is just weird.
...and who worked them out? George Martin? Was Lennon already able to hear them when he came into the studio? Did Mc help him? To have been a fly in the wall back then...
It’s no coincidence, Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys often says Rubber Soul (the album nowhere man was released on) was the inspiration for Pet Sounds. Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys then in turn inspired the Beatles to do Sgt. Peppers. The Beach Boys and the Beatles had a bit of a friendly rivalry going in those days.
I had a Beatle-band myself years ago, always struggling hard to discover the specific real Beatle-harmonies, playing the songs over and over again until we found the very last details inside their great songs. I became adicted to it. Your break-ups are absolutely perfect. Even the great little very specific details in Nowhere Man where not lost on you.
You sir, were the back bone/vocal teacher of the Beatle tribute band I was in, we CONSTANTLY ran to your videos for help on our harmonies, I personally can't thank you enough.
Started playing bass in 1964 because I loved the Beatles. To hear you break it down so well brings tears to my eyes. Thank you from myself and every Beatle fan on the planet.
This is one of Frudua's best videos. The absence of other sounds from the instruments helps to see how perfectly he managed to breakdown these harmonies. The whole video production is amazing, thank you again, Beatles friend!
I've always thought exactly the same thing on their 3 part songs! John usually takes the melody, Paul the high colorful harmony above it, leaving George to sing the parts that are so hard to do. Just listen to "Because" as another example of this. And on their 2 part songs between just John and Paul it seems like John takes the most difficult lines, even more than I used to think. I always knew John sang those odd low harmonies under Paul, but now I'm discovering that he's also often jumping up to a falsetto line ABOVE McCartney. All 3 brilliant at vocal arrangements
I feel like it perhaps might just seem that way because we've heard this song soooo much that the melody is ingrained in our heads and it's hard to think of anything else, but we should remember that this song was totally new even to them back when they recorded it, so it might not have been as difficult to think of something other than the melody. More importantly, it's the Beatles after all, they can harmonize like a motherfucker!
It is often true. If you listen to Sergeant Peppers LHCB, you hear George singing a very tight low harmony that is subtle and has unexpected intervals. And Paul’s high harmony is mostly a single note. Pretty cool.
Mr. Galeazzo. Congratulations for the brilliant dominion you show in your tutorials. And Thank you very much, I enjoy your teaching even though I've just started to learn about it.
Wow!!! The harmony in the 60´s was a great trick; singing with The Beatles done was a great impact!! Thank Galeazzo for share it. Congratulations awesome job.
George Martin was absolutely important when it came to constructing the Beatles harmonies. The lads had an ear for it, but it was only later that they became good enough to do most of it on their own. In 1965, I would suspect they were still relying on Martin's expertise quite a bit, although they probably had more control over it than in prior years.
Yes, sure, I would also "suspect" that, but we are treading delicate ground here. This is sort of academia, this is history. So we can't mix up our opinions with what we actually know. Sorry, I get touchy about this stuff because I see a lot of beatles fans online just spew out "facts" and in the process also reviogorating myths and weird perspectives on the band.
Dear Galeazzo, Thank you so much for your brilliant work. I have worked in radio for over 40 years and have produced and sung song parodies (and some original music) since the 70's. I did a parody based on Nowhere Man a few years back. I never could get George's part right. I ended up layering about 8 voice tracks and people here seemed to really like it, so it turned out ok I guess, but I always knew it wasn't quite right. Your video cleared up my mistakes so easily. I went back today and recut it with the CORRECT harmonies. Now there are only 3 vocal parts (though I did double track Paul's part since it just didn't quite punch enough in my mix). It is much simpler and sounds so much cleaner now, thanks to you. I am finally satisfied with it. I really enjoy what you do and respect your skills. You have an amazing ear for identifying harmonies. Your Bohemian Rhapsody videos totally blew me away. Freddie's harmonies are incredible but they are all over the place and almost counter intuitive. He goes up and down so much within individual parts. I can't imagine how you figured them all out. I'm now a big fan of your channel and have been sharing it with all my music and radio buddies. I know I will learn more from you, but with just this one lesson you have already helped me so much. Thank you again.
Greetings from central Ohio, near the capital of Columbus in the U.S.! I just wanted to tell you I think your videos are amazing and very educational for someone like me, who loves to play guitar and sing! my friend and I have used a couple of your videos to work out our harmony for songs like "Help!" when we perform together. We don't play professionally (at least not yet), even though we've both been playing over 20 years. But we love music, and I never would've realized how interesting the Beatles' music truly is, if it weren't for your channel. 😁 So I wanted to comment that your channel is awesome, & I'm so glad my friend showed it to me a few years ago. Thank you! 😃
That would be so cool. You have a terrific voice, and your harmonizing to these great old tunes is just sensational...When you sing the first line of this song (Nowhere Man ) it sends chills up my spine the harmony is so "tight" and perfect. .In fact I'm going to take a poll right now... EVERYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO HEAR GALEAZZO DO THE WHOLE NUMBER ALL THE WAY THROUGH AT THE END OF THE TUTORIAL TEXT HIM AND TELL HIM SO. You've created a following now my friend and we love what you do.
Wow! This is absolutely fantastic. I have been singing~along with Them for DECADES. Even adding harmonies, ~however~ not correctly. This is an exact analysis of what each Beatle is singing. -and then added in layers to make sense for the average listener.
EXQUISIT DISSECTION of Beatles songs ! I m 52 and only now, due to you, I understand WHAT was giving me the Beatles thrills at age 20 !!! Grazie Galeazzo ! Bravissimo !
i LOVE the harmonies in Nowhere man by the beatles !!!!! definetly have gotta try doing a cover of this one :) am gonna learn how to sing all these different harmonies at some stage :)
You are a super singer as well as the best vocal coach; you have wonder ears. You are truly making our lives easy, for picking all this stuff for us. Thank you!
The Beatles Vocal Harmony You're a LUTHIER, too?? It takes me forever to change the strings on my guitar, and I'm lucky if I can sing the MELODY parts in tune, let alone the harmonies! You are INCREDIBLY talented!!
Wow, this must be so much work. Thank you for sharing it with the world.I have been obsessed with your videos and think i found a new idol.I am having a blast trying this at home. Has made me dust off alot of old equipment.Thank you very much.
Sir, you are amazing. Brilliant harmonies. I am in awe each time I watch your vocal lessons. P. S. Your Dear Prudence guitar lesson was great. Do you have other instrumental lessons?
Haven’t seen you on UA-cam or Facebook for such a long time !! So here to find this video, hoping that I find more of your videos here or on Facebook once again. I’ve enjoyed everything you have presented and that you have shared so much knowledge about the Beatles in their music. Please let me know how you’ve been and what your plans are for the future. Much love and admiration !!! Hopefully to hear from you soon !!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️😁😁😁😁😁😁🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵♥️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼!!!!!!!!!!
Nice to see appreciation for this underrated bassline! It's difficult indeed, but not impossible to sing along to. I do this with my Beatles Band, and while I don't play every single note like he does, it comes close, imo. ua-cam.com/video/bNRyioJPufo/v-deo.html
43 years ago as an 18 year old bass player in a garage band, we played and sang Nowhere Man. Compared to other Beatle harmonies, this one was fairly simple but nonetheless chilling in its beauty.
Great Tutorial so simple yet so clear I'm a Beatles big fan Please continue making for us some more of your good stuff But isn't it John & Paul usually doing the dueto?
Outstanding! When this epic song first came out on Rubber Soul - in those glorious days of 1965 - I learned it on the guitar but could never get the vocals right.
Even George Paul and Ringo in the Anthology video said Nowhere Man was one of their most difficult songs to do live. I think that's a testament to just how awesome Gallazeo is!
Oh that is Too funny!! My wife and, daughter and I just finished watching the restored Yellow Submarine which is AMAZING, and we thought we'd work on Nowhere Man. I go here and lo and behold [or high and beheld] you have updated the harmony. You are an inspiration and a blessing! Thanks!
This is my favourite vocal song based solely on that middle eighth "Aaaaah la la la" part, it just sounds so great, and you do it so well. If not that is the "Farajaka" background vocals in Paperback Writer.
THESE BEATLES LESSONS MAY END! PLEASE DONATE TO KEEP THEM ALIVE!: ➡ goo.gl/ldPTmk -- WATCH HOW I RECORD MY VOCALS! ➡ bit.ly/2B7kgZU
Oops
...that's the guy! Sorry, didn't se the post...FB just "upgraded" again and everything looks new and goofy :p
Man, who 'are" you? You're addictive. One after another. Your harmonies are incredible.
dont know if you guys gives a shit but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch pretty much all the new series on InstaFlixxer. I've been streaming with my gf for the last days =)
@Kelvin Leonidas yup, been using instaflixxer for months myself :)
@Kelvin Leonidas definitely, I've been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself =)
The harmony of nowhere man always blow my mind the harmony on this song is fucking out of this world.
Agreed! Lennon was the master at coming up with the three-part harmonies. "This Boy" and "Nowhere Man" are the pinnacles of the form. "Because" seems somehow pro forma, and "Yes it is" is just weird.
Thanks for you response
...and who worked them out? George Martin? Was Lennon already able to hear them when he came into the studio? Did Mc help him? To have been a fly in the wall back then...
@@MichaelDWalshThe Beatles first self written songs already had tons of harmonies before they ever met Martin though.
It gives me chills just how powerful these harmonies are
George’s verse part is absurd.
Stationary Wilburys 😂
Sounds logical and natural to me 🤷🏻♂️
Probably depends what type of voice you're used to singing
Well George always always sang the complex harmonies
I think it's because it has to go with the chords. The G#m is out of the scale: D#, A#, G#, D#, Fm, [G#m], D# (use a capo on 1)
the vocals of George it reminds me of vocals of the beachs boys
I know. It really does
It’s no coincidence, Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys often says Rubber Soul (the album nowhere man was released on) was the inspiration for Pet Sounds. Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys then in turn inspired the Beatles to do Sgt. Peppers. The Beach Boys and the Beatles had a bit of a friendly rivalry going in those days.
One of the Beatles said who they took that ooooh lalala from but I don't recall
@@austinmartens8662 yeah, trust the guy with the pet sounds profile picture :)
You are a master... Now I can sing the right way in my car..
Your poor car! ;)
Allen Johnson ladies and gentlemen shots have been fired

You sir, were the back bone/vocal teacher of the Beatle tribute band I was in, we CONSTANTLY ran to your videos for help on our harmonies, I personally can't thank you enough.
You must have an extraordinary ear Bro!! I've listened to that song for years and never gotten Georges part right.
Started playing bass in 1964 because I loved the Beatles. To hear you break it down so well brings tears to my eyes. Thank you from myself and every Beatle fan on the planet.
You are a truly Vocal Harmony expert my friend. Superb!
This is one of Frudua's best videos. The absence of other sounds from the instruments helps to see how perfectly he managed to breakdown these harmonies. The whole video production is amazing, thank you again, Beatles friend!
Is it just me or George´s vocals are always the most difficult ones?
Yes, because it's more challenging for the ear to sing below the melody line.
I've always thought exactly the same thing on their 3 part songs! John usually takes the melody, Paul the high colorful harmony above it, leaving George to sing the parts that are so hard to do. Just listen to "Because" as another example of this. And on their 2 part songs between just John and Paul it seems like John takes the most difficult lines, even more than I used to think.

Wow!!! The harmony in the 60´s was a great trick; singing with The Beatles done was a great impact!! Thank Galeazzo for share it. Congratulations awesome job.
Well done. You are a credit to Beatles harmony and I've sung these songs for 40 years now.
Good job my friend!
This shows to me what genius's they were at that time. No training, just self learned boys in clubs and dives
+John Armstrong George Martin was "instrumental" with harmonies, strings, horns and arrangements. ;-)
Garry Nutt No he wasn’t.. there was nothing arrangement wise that he wasn’t instructed to do so by the Beatles.
sources on that claim? You can't just make up stuff about the Beatles, that's not how we evolve this community.
George Martin was absolutely important when it came to constructing the Beatles harmonies. The lads had an ear for it, but it was only later that they became good enough to do most of it on their own. In 1965, I would suspect they were still relying on Martin's expertise quite a bit, although they probably had more control over it than in prior years.

Full disclosure: I'm jealous of your strident, clear voice and well-trained ear. Very impressive. Thanks for sharing with all of us!
The disection of this great song makes it even better.To know all this vocal harmony was going on is only apparent now.Well done Sir.
Impecable as always! Thank you dear Galeazzo for sharing your hard work with us mortals. with less ear.
Your work is amazing and so helpful for those of us covering Beatles tunes. Your videos are so clear and simple to follow, thanks for making them

These videos are fantastic! Thanks So much for braking these down. I really look forward to getting together with my mates and trying them.
It is amazing to think that the Beatles did that almost instinctively, or so it seems. Thank you for this amazing video.
George Martin.
your tone is perfecttt for the beatles!
You make the Beatles alive again! Is your band still together and performing? The world needs you now!
Great Job Sir, Love to hear you break it down!!

Hello, as a musician and big big big Beatles fan since my early childhood I love to say you do an amazing job explaining this :)... Thank you.
Great work man, I especially love the doubling of Lennon in the middle 8
How on earth did they do this live, with Paul playing that amazing bass line, etc?
Paul actually said in the Anthology that for him this tune was indeed very difficult to play Live------but then again ----He's Paul Mccartney!
keith wilson
Lol so true :D
As much of a beast as McCartney was and still is, he simplified the basslines for a few songs when he played live and had to sing as well.
They didn't have to get all the notes right because a majority of the audience wasn't listening to the actual music at that point, sad but true...
Nice to see appreciation for this underrated bassline! It's difficult indeed, but not impossible to sing along to. I do this with my Beatles Band, and while I don't play every single note like he does, it comes close, imo. ua-cam.com/video/bNRyioJPufo/v-deo.html
Only just found you .i am a guitarist and your videos are superb...🎸🎸🎶🎼🎤💯
George's part at the start of the song is a revelation. He's the one who made the 6th chord in She Loves You work.
This is fookin fantastic!
That was just brilliant. Thank you!
Stumbled drunk across your post. Thank you so much. I will remember this and learn.
43 years ago as an 18 year old bass player in a garage band, we played and sang Nowhere Man. Compared to other Beatle harmonies, this one was fairly simple but nonetheless chilling in its beauty.
Always great, my friend. Thanks. Gracias.
Thank you! This is some awesome help!
Your articulating the parts is a dream send! Thanx again!
Great Tutorial so simple yet so clear I'm a Beatles big fan Please continue making for us some more of your good stuff But isn't it John & Paul usually doing the dueto?
Beautifully done!! Thank you!
Spot on as always Galle!
2:10 i love that part!! that sounds very clean and strong!!! congratulations from Mexico!!!!
Man you should make full covers! Really love your videos! Greetings from Colombia! :D
Outstanding! When this epic song first came out on Rubber Soul - in those glorious days of 1965 - I learned it on the guitar but could never get the vocals right.
I like your choice of room to record. 👍🏼 Excellent voice!
Love these videos!!!
I LOVE YOUR WORK. just fantastic
Really great tutorial. Thanks a lot.
Beatles needs no music, their voices are. Excelent work man in this channel, I enjoy. 😊
Awesome! great video.
i love the way u teach
Even George Paul and Ringo in the Anthology video said Nowhere Man was one of their most difficult songs to do live. I think that's a testament to just how awesome Gallazeo is!
Oh that is Too funny!! My wife and, daughter and I just finished watching the restored Yellow Submarine which is AMAZING, and we thought we'd work on Nowhere Man. I go here and lo and behold [or high and beheld] you have updated the harmony. You are an inspiration
and a blessing!
Thanks!
incredibly good! thanks for the help
Thanks! I checked it and it's awesome like all the other videos.
This is my favourite vocal song based solely on that middle eighth "Aaaaah la la la" part, it just sounds so great, and you do it so well. If not that is the "Farajaka" background vocals in Paperback Writer.
You are awesome and your videos are very informative... You rock!!!
You are very talented.... Thank you...
Love all your lessons Galeazzo!! Could you do a breakdown of Don't Let Me Down?
Totally cool, loved it
Esperando ansiosamente por ''Twist and Shout'' = D parabéns cara, você é ótimo !
Thank you so much sir! It's very helpful:) But it's very difficult to sing george part at "making all his nowhere plans for nobody" :(
Wow! Thank you boy! U da best
