I cracked up at the beginning of your review when Amber was looking forward to finally learning the meaning of I am the walrus by listening to the song! I was a 13-14 yr old aspiring hippie chick when this song came out, and a huge Beatles fan. People around the world went on and on trying to figure out what it meant and coming up with all kinds of "meanings". When it turns out Lennon later said he wrote this song as a spoof and a joke on all the people who espoused so much deep and intricate philosophical meanings to all their songs. Also think some of it was inspired by a couple acid trips he took. Thanks for the reviews and always making me smile! ✌❤

This is an odd mix of the song, apart from the album version. You should listen to the album version if you get the chance. The one thing you can always count on from the Beatles, is a mastery of any type or style of modern you can think of! They were the greatest band of the 20th century, hands down. They are still massively popular 50 years after they broke up!

@bruce-e-bonus Год назад

This is a really weird mix! Have you checked out the version on the Love album - it's very similar to the original but a step up in sound quality as they mixed it for the 2006 album. I'm a big advocate of the the recent remixes of Sgt Peppers, White Album and Abbey Road. Apparently there was a remix of I Am The Walrus done for the blue ray release of Yellow Submarine in 2012 (I think this is true - I read it a while ago). I'd like to hear that version but I haven't found it yet.

Ha ha !!!you won’t be able to figure it out. 😊

@Dragonsinger71 Год назад

If you go back and research the history of rock, you'll realize why The Beatles were so important and iconic. They came along and changed the face of rock music completely. They wrote songs like nothing heard before. Some of the techniques they used in recording they invented on the fly with George Martin. Paul and John wrote the bulk of their material and did so with such an incredible sympatico that was beyond belief. Each would come into the studio with a partial song written, obviously unrelated, yet somehow those parts would marry together and become a single, phenomenal song. There's a wonderful documentary on their music that PBS has broadcast several times. The narrator is a musician, producer and educator. He analyzes different songs from the various periods of their career as The Beatles.He illustrates the technical skill and knowledge behind their music, making it clear that though they may have written and made musical decision on an intuitive level, they actually were displaying massive technical abilities.

After so many people were trying to find hidden meanings to the lyrics on Sgt. Pepper, John said he was going to write a song to drive people crazy trying to figure out what it's all about. He did it for a laugh. Loosely based on Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland poem The Walrus and the Carpenter. Still it's a great song. Thanks Johnny.

John and Paul got together once a week for 3 hours to write new songs. By the end of the session, they ALWAYS had a song, and most of the time it became a hit! They would take the song to George and Ringo. They would play the main theme for them and that would take about 20 minutes. Then they would split up for about 30-60 minutes and work to create their own separate parts to beef it up. Paul would play bass guitar similar to a lead guitar… one reason those songs sound so great. George would work on his lead guitar parts and come up with a unique riff at the beginning of the song. Ringo would experiment with rhythms on drums. Etc. By the end of the week, they were recording the song! Super talented boys, they were!

@jornspirit 2 года назад

wonderful Jay and Amber, that you dig out more of the Beatles... however just so you know: this version of 'I'm the Walrus' was really weird and in bad shape... sometimes the stereo effect was gone, so certain musical effects were missing, and it was cut at the beginning and the end... even the alignment of music and singing was sometimes out of sync... I hope you get to hear the proper full version one day - its really worth it!! PS. John wrote the lyrics for this as a response to many fans going a bit wacky with the interpretations of their texts, and way beyond their meaning, so he thought... 'I'll give them something really weird to chew on...' :)

For quirky, fun storytelling Beatles "Rocky Raccoon", "Eleanor Rigby" or "When I'm 64". And there are so many, many more. It boggles the mind, when you realize they were only together, as a group, for 6 years.

@alanr4447a 2 года назад

They ceased being a group in late 1969 when John announced he was done with it, at which point they'd been RECORDING for 7 years (since late 1962, also when Ringo became their drummer), and John, Paul and George had been PERFORMING together for about 11 years (since 1958).

@patticrichton1135 2 года назад

They were together longer than 7 years. Paul met John in 1956 and then Paul brought George in soon after. Pete Best was their drummer from then on, through the Cavern and local Liverpool area venues, and gigs in Hamburg Germany. They started RECORDING in 1962 after Ringo was brought in. So they recorded from 1962 until 1970, for 8 years. But they were a band technically since August of 1960 when Pete Best became their drummer. Before that they had drummers here and there and when they didn't the 3 of them just played out. BUT when they were offered a several months long gig in Hamburg, Germany for the first time, they HAD to get a drummer....so that's when they got Pete, who remained their drummer until just after they were signed to record in 1962.

@alanr4447a 2 года назад

@@patticrichton1135 The group used to cite 1956 as the year John and Paul met, but later Mark Lewisohn fixed the date as July 6, 1957, which actually jibed much better with other "recollections" of theirs, such as Paul's: "I got into rock 'n roll after my mother died when I was 14", as well as the notion that Paul played "Twenty Flight Rock" for John to get into the Quarrymen, which hadn't had ANY public release until it appeared in the movie _The Girl Can't Help It_ originally in Decemeber 1956, and purportedly later in Liverpool, "early summer 1957" according to Wikipedia (and which in fact still hadn't been released as its own RECORD by Lewisohn's 1957 date - I don't know about possible inclusion in a movie soundtrack LP).

This is why The Beatles were the greatest. They could write songs of love, songs with meaning, or like "I Am The Walrus", songs about nothing at all. No other band could put a bunch of gibberish wording together, and create a hit. Their creativity was boundless. For the Sgt. Peppers and Magical Mystery Tour recordings Paul suggested all four Beatles become someone else, and it certainly WAS magical.

This is on the Magical Mystery Tour album and was the B side of the single with Hello Goodbye the A side. The sound of John's voice was done by using the talk back microphone (the cheap mic they use for the control room to talk to the musicians through the headphones). John wanted a weird sound and the sound engineer Geoff Emerick came up with it. I think the "I'm crying" part was added last since this was recorded 4 days after Brian Epstein died.

You need to hear the studio version of this song on the Magical Mystery Tour album... there are a lot of things in the background heard toward the end of the song, including Paul supposedly saying "Bury my body" at one point -- going back to that "Paul is dead" conspiracy theory. It is not Paul speaking. It is from a dramatic reading of Shakespeare's King Lear (Act IV, Scene 6), lines 219-222 and 249-262. It was added to the song on 29 September 1967, recorded directly from an AM radio Lennon was fiddling with. Lennon tuned around the dial and settled on the 7:30 pm to 11 pm broadcast of the play on the BBC Third Programme.

If ever thou wilt thrive, (4:02) bury my body, And give the (4:05) letters which thou find'st about me To (4:08) Edmund, Earl of Gloucester; (4:10) seek him out Upon the British party.

Edgar: (4:31) Sit you down, father, rest you. On the radio broadcast, the roles were read by Mark Dignam (Gloucester), Philip Guard (Edgar), and John Bryning (Oswald).

The "Walrus" mustache was what the guys grew during Seargeant Peppers, and you got a free "cutout" one in the original album

@jamesmorgan4121 2 года назад

When Amber said I want to get into this song to find out what the Walrus is, who else thought you ain’t going to work it out from the song. The best insight I can offer is that Paul McCartney said that him and John Lennon were sick of critics pull apart their lyrics and finding things in their that they never meant. So John wrote the Walrus to kind of say now work this out.

Took me more than 30 years to connect the dots. As I grew older I read things, saw things and heard some people and then it was just like…"oh my God, John was having a laugh at this one…and this one,..and also at this one!"

In several interviews after the fact, Lennon explained that “I Am The Walrus” was written in response to learning that fans were analyzing the lyrics of The Beatles’ songs. More specifically, Lennon had read a letter from a student from his alma mater, Quarry Bank High School for Boys, that said the literature classes were studying the meaning of The Beatles lyrics. So, Lennon decided to pen a song so obscure and so bizarre that the meaning would be impossible to discover. Thus, “I Am The Walrus.” “Let the fu$%ers work that one out, Pete!” Lennon is cited telling Pete Shotton, an old school friend.

@thomaswrinkle2038 2 года назад

Jay, you should give "She's So Heavy" another listen sometime when you don't have to react. The part you didn't like is very hypnotic and catchy. It builds and builds while John & George begin turning "White Noise" machines. Instead of ending on a final note or fading out, John told the engineer to cut the tape at a specific point with a razor blade. As you get into the ending part more and more it abruptly just stops. It's shocking. It's like: "Whoa!". I believe nobody had ever done that before; it was something recording engineers didn't do.

John Lennon was a big fan of Lewis Carroll and "The Walrus" was a take on Carroll's segment of "The Walrus and the Carpenter", which was a poem found in his story "Through The Looking Glass" where Alice continues her travels in Wonderland. He also wrote these lyrics while being heavily influenced by acid, and this may have reflected this type of mind-expandedness. Both this song and Strawberry Fields Forever are on the U.S. Capitol release album, "Magical Mystery Tour". You really got cheated out of hearing the real tail end of this song which was a BBC production of Shakespeare's King Lear play; also omitted from what you heard was the outro where they are chanting "Everybody's Got One", which is quite magical.

@ontrack16 10 месяцев назад

this was a B-side to 'Hello, Goodbye' and 'Strawberry Fields Forever' / 'Penny Lane' (double A-side!). 'I Am The Walrus' came out right after Sgt.Pepper's with the Magical Mystery Tour movie made for TV. Strawberry Fields was before Sgt. Pepper and was placed on the American pressing of Magical Mystery Tour that included these singles previously not included on an album. Also, 'All You Need Is Love' is on the MMT album bc it was the single released a month after the release of the album, Sgt. Pepper. All of this productivity starts from Dec/66 ending with the release of two albums worth of fantastic material in Nov/67. They took a vacation to India and came back to record 30 plus songs for the The White Album and the Hey Jude/Revolution single not included on album per usual practice wrapping up in November 1968 and performing a scattering of "new" material on the rooftop a few months later in Jan/69. By September of that year they would never record together again but would come up with two more albums before the end of the decade. (this is an elaboration of the perfectly put comment below. It was a phenomenon that still carries today and seems to be growing!). Thank you so much for appreciating and reacting to all of these Beatles and other classic music videos!

@brenthenshaw3585 11 месяцев назад

John wrote Strawberry Fields Forever in late 1966 while he was cast in the movie How I Won the War. He later heard that English departments in universities started doing classes analyzing lyrics to Beatles songs. So John decided to mess with them by writing I Am the Walrus, which was complete gibberish! I really discovered the Beatles in 1976, when I was 10, and this has been my favorite Beatles song from the get go.

@AnimeOtakuDrew 2 года назад

As far as this and "Strawberry Fields Forever" being on the same album, yes and no. In the UK, "Strawberry Fields Forever" was released on a "double A-side" single with "Penny Lane." It had been planned to release on the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, but The Beatles wouldn't include previously released singles on their albums, so it was left off. In the US, "Strawberry Fields Forever" was finally released on the album Magical Mystery Tour (the UK version did not include it), which is the same album as "I Am the Walrus." Does that answer your question about the album? As for my recommendation this time, I still have to suggest "Yesterday." It is such a beautiful song! My absolute favorite by the Beatles. I am 100% certain you will both love it!

Lennon wrote the song to confound listeners who had been affording serious scholarly interpretations of the Beatles' lyrics. He was partly inspired by two LSD trips and Lewis Carroll's 1871 poem "The Walrus and the Carpenter". Producer George Martin arranged and added orchestral accompaniment that included violins, cellos, horns, and clarinet. The Mike Sammes Singers, a 16-voice choir of professional studio vocalists, also joined the recording, variously singing nonsense lines and shrill whooping noises. Since the "Hello, Goodbye" single and the Magical Mystery Tour EP both reached the top two slots on the British singles chart in December, "I Am the Walrus" holds the distinction of reaching numbers one and two simultaneously. Shortly after release, the song was banned by the BBC for the line "Boy, you've been a naughty girl, you let your knickers down".
