The Analogues perform 'Sexy Sadie' by The Beatles during an integral rendition of The Beatles' White Album at the Philharmonic Hall in Liverpool, August 24th, 2018.
Sexy Sadie, what have you done You made a fool of everyone You made a fool of everyone Sexy Sadie, ooh, what have you done Sexy Sadie, you broke the rules You laid it down for all to see You laid it down for all to see Sexy Sadie, ooh, you broke the rules One sunny day the world was waiting for a lover She came along to turn on everyone Sexy Sadie, the greatest of them all Sexy Sadie, how did you know? The world was waiting just for you The world was waiting just for you Sexy Sadie, ooh, how did you know Sexy Sadie, you'll get yours yet However big you think you are However big you think you are Sexy Sadie, ooh, you'll get yours yet We gave her everything we owned just to sit at her table Just a smile would lighten everything Sexy Sadie, the greatest of them all
Es una maravilla. Grandes los Analogues. Y el sonido actual es mejor que el original, con todos los medios técnicos actuales. Con cascos es una gozada. Gracias
Fantastic replication. Love John Lennon even more the older I get. Funny watching the graphic the band uses with this, understanding John is writing about Maharishi.
The guy who is simultaneously playing the acoustic piano with his right hand and the electric organ with his left hand reminds me of bands like the Doors and the Rascals, whose keyboard players played the keyboard with their right hand and the bass with their left hand ...... neither band had a bass guitarist when they played in concert.
Love the analogues! But did no one hear the difference in the first bar of the song (piano intro) with the original? The jazzy keystrokes by Paul. (the D-chord i think)
Better than the original! I really mean it. It sounds more organic, and the mix is definitely better. I always thought that most of the songs on the White Album were poorly produced. I can't wait to hear your renditions of Martha My Dear, I'm So Tired, Piggies, and Julia. And please come to Los Angeles! 👏👏👏
What I've never understood about this song is why does John sing that "only a smile would lighten everything" when the song is about the Maharishi and that's practically ALL the little yogi did was laugh, titter, giggle and have a good time. I think perhaps John was just feeling jealous that people were talking more about the Maharishi and less about him maybe? Or maybe John wasn't successful getting with any of the birds there at the ashram and the Maharishi was? Hmm? LOL
I’ve always taken the line as a somewhat sarcastic comment on the Maharishi’s believe (according to Lennon) to be able to wash himself off of every sin by just walking around with that big smile all the time and thereby successfully provoke the following reaction in most of the people surrounding him: "How could that happy joyous little man ever do anyone any harm?”. In Lennon’s eyes at the time all of the Maharishi’s mannerisms must have felt like a cynical way to cover up his real self, the vicious abuser of young girls. Later in his life Lennon did regret having written the song that way and even admitted to have been wrong about the accusations directed towards the Maharishi.
@@johanneshoffmann4523 Absolutely love this song and hold the Beatles in the highest esteem, yet have always been somewhat mystified about all the hate directed toward Maharishi in this song. Even if he did try to bang Mia's sister, so what. Sharing TM with the world he did a lot of good, and Paul, who meditates daily, attests to this. So thank you for your comment that John did express regret later. It did provide the impetus to one helluva song.
