OMG! First time hearing Beatles | Day in the Life | Reaction 

Also noteworthy is that “panting” percussive bit after “I noticed I was late.”

I completely agree. Indeed, it was this song-the more I listened to it-that made me insist to my drummer at the time, who was a drummer stereotype, with a 32-piece kit (we were 16; god knows what sort of monstrosity it is, now) and who thought Neil Peart was God, and talked a lot of shite about Ringo, that Ringo was a brilliant drummer. I said, ‘just listen to how much subtlety and atmosphere he can create with just a 5-piece kit! I feel more listening to any one song off *Sgt. Pepper* or *Revolver* than the entire Rush back catalogue, with maybe the exception of ‘Subdivisions’, which is the only Rush song whose lyrics don’t sound like some autist’s political essay for a 1st year philosophy class, and one of the few songs where Geddy stays within the section of his vocal range in which he still sounds like a man. I have probably seen ~50 people react to this song; it never gets old. I’m always drawn back to the first time I listened to it…Not the first time I heard it, because my folks were Beatles fans and I must’ve been hearing it since infancy in the extremely early 80s; I mean, the first time I BOUGHT my own copy of the record, intentionally sat down with my studio headphones, and listened intently. It blew my brain right out mi left ear. I went outside, smoked a joint, came back in, and listened to it again. My brain sac refilled with spinal fluid, which was blown out my right ear upon the ending chord of the record. I took acid before listening to *Magical Mystery Tour*, and it was wonderful. “Flying” and “Blue Jay Way” were absolutely otherworldly. I read more into the band history, and bought up *Rubber Soul* and *Revolver* before going on to *The Beatles* or anything later. I had fully realised by this time that I was forever lost through the wormhole of psychedelic art-music, visual art, writing, etc. one thing that LSD can do is make it possible to focus incredibly intently on small details, and this later aided me greatly as I studied audio engineering/composition/mixing…. …And I still insist today that not only was Ringo one of the greatest rock drummers of all time, but the drums that the Beatles recorded to tape was one of the best -SOUNDING drum recordings of all time, post-*Revolver*. The point is, though, that

Ringo killed in this song. His fills were epic

I can’t agree more.

only little poxy double bass drummers say this about ringo . Speed is secondary to taste ....any of those !@#$ ! playing beatles tunes would have to do what ringo did anyway.....nobody will remeber any of that poxy music in 200 yrs ...but the beatles will be the NEW classical music for the millennium

Ringo is not an underrated drummer. Never has been probably never will be. He's world wide recognized as one of the best drummers to ever live. He's probably one of the most famous musicians to ever live. He was apart of probably the most famous band ever. The only people who think Ringo is underrated are people who think the Beatles are a niche band from back in the day.

Ringo is not underrated by anyone who actually plays drums. He is the most amazing feel drummer of his time.

It’s amazing

It’s so well written and composed, I really like it . Thanks for sharing this information. 🙏

That’s right

That’s right

Okay, I’ll try to do that. 🙏

Love Me Do

Believe it or not they only officially released just over 10 hours of music!

I'll check them out, thanks for watching and subscribing 🙏☺️

George Martin is perhaps the most underrated person in the history of popular music.

@@samnichles447 Really? His reputation is colossal.

So many references in this work...not least that John was in the film (movie) "How I won the war". 1967, the past as the poet said is another country.

Welcome aboard! Nice to have you here, they are incredible, I really appreciate their music, and I am gonna keep diving into this rabbit hole 🙏☺️

Well said!

1967 is indeed a very long time and the song sounds so amazing. I have reacted to “ Don’t let me down”here on my channel , yet to check out the other one, I’ll add it to my list now. Thanks for watching and recommending too. 🙏☺️

Looking forward to checking more out .

It’s really beautiful

Absolutely, the drumming was incredible.

Sure.👍🏽

Thank for watching glad you enjoyed it

It really IS usually at the worst possible moment, and your having said this made me flash on the possible reason why -- because those breaks in songs, breaks in tempo, pauses, are some of the most memorable transitions in a song that make it special, and that's where reactors always tend to stop. It's infuriating -- as the audience, you're like, "well, you need to listen to that again, so you can appreciate that transition."

Though it is disorienting as hell to ever hear the Beatles referred to as “older music”. Anything by them remains younger, fresher and more vividly alive than anything made two days ago.

Thank you 😊

Okay. Will do, thanks for the recommendation.☺️🙏

I believe it was an e minor.

@@budmcnew7763 Yes it wasn't so much a note as a chord.

Omg, I had no idea, this is really interesting, getting to know more about the band , thank you for taking your time to share this information I really appreciate 🙏☺️

@@shockwavereact I just recently listened to Beyonce's cover of the 1968 Beatles song, "Blackbird". Its very good, though my preference is for the original. And I also prefer Sarah McLachlan's 2001 cover. But Beyonce nailed it too in her rendition. BTW the "Beatles" name comes from their appreciation for the 1950's rocker, "Buddy Holly" whose band was called, "The Crickets". Also, the word, "beat" was used instead of "Beetles". Their original band names had been "The Quarry Men", and "Johnny and the Moondogs". Holly was killed in a plane crash in 1959. A day historically known as "The day the music died" (an event memorialized in the famous 1971 song, "American Pie" by Don McClean). Former Beatle John Lennon was killed in 1980 by a psychotic fan. An event memorialized in Elton John's 1982 song, "Empty Garden". But The Beatles live forever!

It’s probably the recent re-master - a lot of what was somewhat muddy detail on the early digital releases was worked on and clarified (under George Martin’s supervision, I believe). In this release, one can even clearly hear the inadvertent “creak” of one of the piano benches as the epic last chord fades, and someone doesn’t quite sit still enough. (Far from damaging the overall effect, the sound is remarkably touching and humanizing, as we’re suddenly reminded that real humans are actually expending detailed labors to make these great sounds - the illusion of effortless genius is replaced by a truth about music-making even better than that.) ❤️ 🎶

So true

Okay I will check out these recommendations. Thank you for watching and suggesting 🙏☺️

@@shockwavereact I would recommend listening to their albums (not just random songs) in chronological order. It’s the best way to really appreciate them. They advanced very rapidly over the course of a relatively short period of time.

👍🏽
