The Beatles are one of those bands that will remain so iconic, probably for hundreds of years. Their complex chord shifts, the fact that all four of them could sing well, and that they all were capable of writing their own songs in their own separate careers after the Beatles will continue to define them throughout the ages. Their trippy studio stuff is really my favourite though. I love watching this video and just concentrating on Ringo in the back. He didn't do any backing vocals on this one and because of the prop of the board and saw-horses he didn't have a practical way of being at the drums. He's pulling faces throughout the video and just hamming it up. Must have been a fun thing to record for all of them.
Such an incredibly beautiful and catchy song and yet poignant, knowing in retrospect what was going on.
The chemistry of their harmonies was very special, an "I.D." stamp on everything that they did.
Hoping one day she will pick a best McCartney vocal like, Maybe I’m Amazed, Oh! Darling, or Helter Skelter. The album versions…
Absolutely, it really shows what he can do. And for the early beatles, his rendition of Little Sally is just mind-blowing. They frequently closed out their shows with it in Hamburg, and audiences would just go nuts. In fact, the manager of the venue tried to write it into their contract that they weren't allowed to ever play it anymore, but fans would yell for it and they would inevitably end up playing it, and then people would go wild, throw stuff around the room and just go crazy. The guy even tried nailing the bar stools into the wooden floor to keep them from being thrown around, lol.
Maybe Im amazed
It is up there with Let it Be
Everybody has their favorite Beatle. Johns play on words always impressed me.
@Brandi6666 I can honestly say that I don't have a favorite. I like each of them for their individual styles and talents. As a group, they were amazing!
John's original version was not this upbeat. It was a sad ballad, but they were the Beatles, so John was convinced to speed it up.
Great reaction/analysis. When you pointed out Paul peeking out over John's shoulder, I had been watching Ringo. He just spent most of the video just sitting in the back with his umbrella, leaning every which way trying to get his face in the picture. I became a fan of the Beatles thanks to my parents, as well as aunts/uncles. But curiously enough, my grandfather was also a fan. He wasn't a fan of much music from that era, but he did like the Beatles, and it was because they could sing harmony, and do it well. He was a barbershop quartet guy, so he respecred their ability to sing as a group.
John's voice and the effect of echo harmonies sound fabulous, and then George and Ringo with those quick looks to be noticeable is adorable, they used to do naughty and silly videos because they didn't like to mime just sing.
Well John wrote this upbeat song because of the roller coaster of the fame and George wrote 'Nowhere to go' referring to the same and of course in his style much more slow but revealing, unfortunately never properly released only a demo can be heard, but it's worthy.
Never heard of these guys before a couple weeks ago but I see great things in their future. Maybe even a top 10 single!
😂
But where the trap hi hats??
Maybe they'll even make a movie or 2
@@terrys8978 yep, and they will make it to the toppermost of the poppermost!!!
I love the call-and-response here where the response actually gets ahead of the call (so to speak) and Paul and George are responding to John's words before he even says them.
Yes great voice young lady, love it. Star.
I really liked the way John sang like this even if it was a throatier melody. Really good stuff. 😊
I enjoy this version because it is the original. However I grew up with John Farnham and he really unpacked and explored the deeper meaning.
I agree, in fact I didn't hear the original until I was an adult (my parents weren't really Beatles fans) and it was difficult to believe it was the same song after having listened to the Farnham version all my life.
Having been born in 1965 when Beatlemania was in full swing, by the time I was 3 or 4 it was lucky I had babysitters and friends that loved them exposing me to their music as long as I can remember. Watching "Yellow Submarine" is one of my fondest memories and remembering how upset people were when they split up. Thanx for working your magic and being able to react to them. Love ya.
Wow, I can only imagine how awesome it was to watch "Yellow Submarine" as a kid. Thank you for sharing your story with me and for appreciating my reactions. You rock!
One of my favourite songs of all time
Help! I was 10 years old when I first heard it and Felt in love instantly, Was the Help movie that I was watching since that till now 46 years later I'm still in love with them!!
I’m 66 and this song has more meaning than when I heard it as a youth.
i like your voice analysis. this song, album and movie, all titled "help!," released in mid-1965, was the height of "beatlmania." it statred in november 1963 with the release of their 2nd album, "with the beatles" and became a global phenomenon with their u. s. debut on the ed sullivam show in february 1964. throughout 1966 touring became an utter nightmare so they quit touring and live tv performances. this is when they transitioned from a mop-top, pop-rock band and blossomed into a more mature approach to their songwriting and they revolutionized studio music production.
they performed live on tv once in 1968, november, on the david frost show where they performed "hey jude." and in january 1969 they performed live together for the last time on the rooftop of EMI studios which was filmed for the movie "let it be" and released in may 1970. although they didn't perform live they did film several music videos from 1967 through 1969.
there are many music videos from their beatlemania days as well. this film of "help!," of course, is a lip-synched tv performance. but i don't know what tv show it origonally aired on. the beatles are so fascinating on so many levels; their history, origins, fashion styles and musical progression over a short period of only 6 or 7 years, their ups and downs. and no matter what their personalities and their music always shown through. the beatles were a remarkable social, cultural and musical experience. once you're turned onto them its hard not to get hooked! thanks for the video.
Everyone wants to sing like their hero’s! Their vocals were always dynamic!
Many of John's songs were not meant to be upbeat but in the early days they were pushed to make upbeat, short, and fast pop songs. Help has to be the prime example but "There's a Place" is far more sad lyrics set to the four happy mop top's beat. Gabrielle Aplin did an amazing cover about ten years ago that is how the song was intended to sound. It is amazing.
Nice, Beth. Haven't heard that in a while! Spot on about the counter melody. Always loved that aspect of the song. 🙋🎸🎹
Amazing as it seems, there are millions of young people who have never heard of the Beatles or listened to their music!!
What's it called when the harmony leads the main vocals as happens in parts of this song? It's an interesting effect where we get the words ahead of the main track.
Great song and a great movie.
The soundtrack has so many amazing songs in it.
If memory serves me correctly I saw this in the theater when it came out.
It''s hard to pick but this is one of my all time favorite Beatles songs, lyrically and Musically! AND I am eagerly awaiting my signed Vinyl copy of YOUR new album, BETH!!!
So good LOVE IT ❤❤
A band that came at the perfect time to be monstrous. They'd sell records today but not the insane numbers they did then. Everything they released seemed to be a number 1. One year in 1964 they have 25 of the top 100 songs on the chart at the same time. That's insane. Most singers and groups don't even have 25 songs they would ever chart let alone at the same time.
A nod to Beatles recording engineer Norman Smith (died 2008) who found a way to record the Beatles right from the beginning in the studio while attempting to capture the excitement he heard on their live performances. That's why they sound so good right from the get-go. His last work with the Beatles was "Rubber Soul".
I just love Ringo sitting in the background 😆😆
Nice sweet lovely reaction. Long live Ringo-George-Paul-John's music!! I don't believe John really hated his own voice. I believe he said he hated his own voice because he was intoxicated by his fame and wanted to be considered more formidable. In the song video I admire Paul for appearing to be acceptingly happy with being #2 in the band. Of course in later years Paul approached being #1, which made John unhappy and was 1 of the factors that led John to instigate the breakup of the Beatles.
I really like this one and it is one of the special ones because you don't get live performances of it anymore. There are covers by other artists, but I couldn't find a single instance of either Beatle performing it since. Both Paul and Ringo don't shy away from performing Beatles songs. Often with other artists. But it seems that the ones where John was the leading voice are left untouched.
Hi Beth, When I was 6-8 years old (1972) I heard the Beatles for the first time and I was not used to their voice, however they had a very special magnetism, they sang relaxed but at the same time wild.
Hi Juan, thank you for sharing your experience with the Beatles. I can relate to what you said about their voice and their magnetism. They were truly unique and amazing artists. I love how they could sing with such ease and passion at the same time. What is your favorite song by them?
@@BethRoars Each Beatles album is unique, with a character completely distinct from the others. I really like the Revolver and Sgt. Pepper era. Songs like 'Walrus' and 'Tomorrow Never Knows' are my favorites from that time.
I have only ever seen the Movie version ( 100 times or so lol ) Thanks for the new video, thanks for the great analysis, never really saw the counters ( again film right ) have a great day Beth
He had an excellent voice! Ringo is the smart one in here, he took his precautions and "helped" himself.
They have potential
I love John’s voice on so many of his songs , but especially this one.
Ringo nailed the Umbrella in this track 🤘
😅
I love me some Beth!!! ❤
The movie was really fun. I loved the sound track. I usually click off one of these channels the moment they interrupt the song but I like how you added some performer information and didn't just stop to say wow, let me hear that again.
Thanks Beth for covering such a classic.
Thank you Beth, great reaction. For me (as a tech nerd) this song is really special. It was the first time I ever heard sampled music on a computer. Way back when I had all my own teeth and no grey hairs I had a Commodore 64 computer. Someone sampled the first 50 seconds or so of 'Help' and distributed it as a Demo. It used all 64k of memory in the computer, took over 2 minutes to load off of a cassette tape, was not great quality and was mono, but.................... WOW Sampled music!!!!!!!!!!!!! MP3 was not even a pipe dream at this time. People would visit our house just to hear me play this demo! How the world and technology have moved on since then.
p.s. When the 50 seconds were done, you had to restart the computer and load from tape again! LOL
Some of the best singers come out of the United Kingdom
They can do no wrong- Well-I love the Beatles-what could be wrong about that
Ringo just holding the umbrella always makes me smile 😁
I loved Ringo in this video, was he the one that was providing the HELP since he was holding the umbrella 😮
So lovely Jim!
I'm sure there were Beatles song found on the flipside of their albums I still haven't heard lol
The movie is my fave, so funny and the birth of music videos
The Beatles is my favorite band 🎸
A favorite song of mine from that period is We Can Work it Out. I hope you get the chance to react to it.
They also did a movie "Help" a musical/comedy in 1965 with the song "Help" as the theme song.
Energy of the group was always the attraction!
FYI: Geoff Castelucci performs a cover of the Beatles song "Blackbird". Pretty interesting.
McCartney has a nice live lead with the Beatles with, “Can’t Buy Me Love.” That would be a good one to critique.
Beautiful reaction, Gorgeous Beth. Grazie mille
Thank you! 😊
Can’t wait for you to react to the new Beatles song
Day after tomorrow :)
You should react to Monkberry Moon Delight by Paul McCartney. Probably his most bizzarre and incredible and fun vocals, and the song is insanely catchy too. The Lovers That Never Were or Maybe I’m Amazed, too. He really has incredible vocals, especially in his solo career.
One off my karaoke favs!🤗
Please remember, John was down, #How can you laugh when you know I'm down. The boys laughed at John, trying to cheer him up.
Los gigantes de la música universal y como lo dije alguna vez espero no ofender a nadie pero son de los grupos que su música cambiaron al mundo 🌍 gracias H. Prrj ❤ bien Big Beth 👏👏🍀🍀
Great song with great lyrics. John's songs were always my favorite. You should watch the movie - great fun!😊
The title song to "Help" is standard Hollywood stuff. The title song to "Hard Days Night", with its iconic opening riff, is classic 60s rock'n roll. I know which one is on my play list.
What has been observed before is, that the backing vocals ,instead of echoing the lead singer like many songs, lactually lead into John's lyrics.
My favorite band of all time
Yes!
BEAUTIFUL BETH ROARS ❤️😍💋
George Martin,at that time, was thinking about who should sing lead when he first met them. He quickly figured out that they ALL were capable. Even Richard had a voice. It was why ,in my opinion, they were special. Those harmonies and the different songs that each performed showed their immense talent. I was nine in '63. They were IT for me in the sixties. NOBODY came close. And HELP was a number one for three weeks and remains an outstanding song to this day. As well as so many others. But after '66, they were no longer the same band. That's another story. Peace and Love.
Ringo still cracks me up :)
At 4:55 , you can tell George was NOT told about the fake snow that came down on his head! 😂
It’s so interesting that John was only 25 when he did this, probably even younger when he wrote this, and is talking about very relatable feelings for that age even if you’re NOT wildly famous 😂 I’m 26 and think it’s so weird Paul was younger than me in this video 🥴
More impressed with you .your simply gorgeous
please, do more Beatles!!
Love Help and interesting reaction.
I would love to see you react to She’s Not There by the Zombies and Midnight Confessions by the Grass Roots, Beth!
I think John had the best voice. All the Beatles could song, but John's voice was the best!
🎯
I always take issue with the use of "best", pertaining to awards and such.
I've always used "favorite", because that's what it actually is, and of course everyone is entitled to.🤙🏼😁
Hmmmm. Paul may have had a slightly more perfected tone, if you will, but John had the rockier voice with a Timbre that was more conducive to r&r ?? IMHO
It was the title song for the HELP movie. check out the movie have a few laughs.
You should watch the movie Help!
I listened to Phonograph Electronique and Power of the Wolf, and genuinely enjoyed both of the songs.
Thank you!
You need to hear the Roxette acoustic cover. Adds a more dramatic call for "Help"
I'm going to listen to it right now!
Yep, it's a good cover. A lot more feeling in the Roxette version. Marie sounds like she means every single word!
I'm re-reading Mark Lewishon's "Tune in" (which I HIGHLY recommend, btw) and he mentions how even in the very early Quarrymen days, it was apparent that Lennon and McCartney's voices blended well together. Beth, can you explain that? I'd love to hear it!
Lennon had the most distinctive singing voice of the four Beatles. A raw, throaty acidic vocal.
McCartney could reach the high notes with his sweet falsetto and was adept at mimicry making him the most versatile singer.
Harrison had a rather flat deep voice but improved over the years the more songs he wrote giving a sincere singing vocal.
Ringo was unmistakably Ringo with his singing.
From my understanding, when John Lennon wrote "Help" he was going through some depression and he did not feel comfortable with himself physically because he had gained some weight. The 1965 film 'Help' with The Beatles (their second film feature) is pretty good and funny. Some critics didn't care for it too much, and they thought it was not as good as their first film feature 1964 'A Hard Day's Night', which it was Ringo Starr came up with that saying, and John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote the song. Need to watch both films, both of them are very good.
Beth, you just have one of the sweetest personalities. You are a lovely gal.
My favorite thing about this video is watching Ringo trying to be seen all the way in the back
I think the song have something to do with a tiger in a basement who only calms down if you whistle Beethoven's 5th symphony to it, but I could be wrong...
Beautiful gal, lovely hair.
was surprised still couldnt find a video of you reacting to cara mia by jay and americans so figured id suggest it
Days of my childhood. I saw the film in the local cinema.
I read (somewhere?) that John said, after hearing Deep Purple's version (1968) John said that's how THEY (the Beatles) should have done it. It was a 'dead serious' commentary on his life by that time. Of course 'happy dance music' was still the common seller for the record biz. OK, I'll belt up now & sorry if I sound like a smarty-pants journalist. 😬
Yes, using a sound alike is still done for copyright purposes. Because it was the actual recording of the Beatles "Help" that the owner of the recordings wouldn't allow Ford to use, You have to understand, there is a copyright for the composition and a separate copyright for the sound recording itself. Two separate copyrights. So, most companies who want to use a song will have a different artist record the song if they cant afford to pay for the rights of use for the recording or if they are denied permission to use it. All they have to do is have a mechanical license issued from the Publisher to do their own recording of it if they are going to use it for purposes of selling a service or product. But the copyright holder of the recordings can outright deny permission to use the actual Beatles recording itself for any purpose.
Excellent video as usual. Now, I'd love to see and hear you react to another Beatles song released just within this one: Paper Back Writer (I think its 1966?). There's a full promotional video on YT An excellent guitar-riff that goes on through the song, McCartneys brilliant bass playing, but most of all: Those harmonies! I'm ´totally certian you would appreciate that one
Would love to hear you react to Just Like Starting Over 😎👍
In my opinion know group or band will ever surpass or even come close to the beatles they changed popular music and culture for ever and the new song and video is so good by the way I think John's best vocal is twist and shout on the please please me album one of the great rock vocals of all time just so raw 🎶🎸🎙️🤘
Actually it was a cry from John Lennon who was going through a difficult period in his life and the only way he could express this was through this song.
At this point they were under contract for 2 (or 3?) LPs and 3 single releases a year, plus they had made 2 movies and done several full tours. They were also starting to write more introspective songs at this point. The B side to this song is "I'm Down", written by Paul.
Regarding the copyright issue from 1985, I'm pretty sure the Beatles didn't own the copyright in 1985. Michael Jackson bought the rights in August 1985. Before that, the Beatles didn't own the rights either. McCartney always did object to Beatles' songs being used in commercials, but I don't think he could have stopped it in 1985, so whoever stopped the original being used in the commercial, it wasn't the Beatles.
Please react to "Oh Darling!" by The Beatles :)
I think it’s hard to understand what it was like to be a Beatle. Of course there was all the great points but there was that inability to go out and to be scrutinized all the time.
One of the things that I admire about Paul is how well he has handled his fame for 6 decades. It doesn’t seem to have gone to his head. He has said he himself has been a fan so he gets it, but that he also feels like he’s playing a part. So there’s the real Paul and then there’s the Paul who is the rock star. Anyway I admire how he seems just a normal likable guy after decades of adulation.
Someone buy this beautiful lady dinner !!!!!!!!
Please forgive me if i have mentioned this before, but this song (or so I'm told) was orignally meant to be a ballad. They jusy upped the tempo and the anti.
Below is a link to how it might have sounded, courtesy of of an Aussie 'pop' (terrible term) icon.

This is perhaps my favorite Beatles song. When I first heard it on the Ed Sullivan show, I immediately bought it. And I was not a Beatles fanatic at the time. Seems like no matter how many times I hear it, I still enjoy it. My new favorite version is from Blackpool Night Out. John's vocals are very clear: ua-cam.com/video/CTsB-llTzyc/v-deo.html
This sounds a lot like one of the "Lennon & McCartney" tunes that John wrote pretty much on his own.
And your observation about the snappy upbeat music behind some pretty melancholy lyrics is a good one. They made kind of a habit of doing that. The one that always comes to mind for me is This Boy - a lover's lament, but in the happy hopeful key of D. Whether they intended it that way - or it was just the Yin-n-Yang of a moody John plus a sunshiny Paul - it comes out as the everyday genius of The Beatles.
Paul’s contribution was the counter melody. A great example of how they collaborated - maybe not straight 50/50 like Rogers & Hammerstein, but an important contribution that really adds something special.
Would love you to react to John Farnham's cover of this song.
Hello Beth please react to Natalia Lafourcade - Hasta La Raíz - Love Hollywood Bowl 2019
