*Fun Beatles Trivia:* This 1964 hit single originally contained the verse "I used to be cruel to my dog, I beat him and kept him apart from the things that he loved." Lennon, however, thought that it was pushing things a bit too far and scrapped it. Years later, he would revisit the line in the song "Getting Better", substituting the dog in question with his wife.
DID YOU KNOW: Let It Be was written about leaving a dog in a hot car. Paul left his dog in a hot car and when George told him not to, and about how dangerous it was, Paul simply replied "it's fine George, just let it be." and the dog died.
“Slag off” was probably one of the most controversial Beatles album. Most likely because of songs like “Push the Elderly Down Stairs,” “Drive on the Sidewalk,” “Burning Down the Hospital,” “OJ Didn’t do It,” (which was an oddly specific song for its 1968 release), “Flaming Baby,” “Murder is okay,” and of course “It’s Okay to Leave Your Dog in a Hot Car.”
"Hate crimes" is such a weird concept to me. Hate definitely can aggravate existing offences, yes, but an emotion in and of itself shouldn't be illegal.
when they played it live they would introduce it as “I Left My Dog In A Hot Car (It’s Okay Because She’s Into Alka-Seltzer).” It was just Liam and Noel beating each other up for 3 minutes and 24 seconds. They don’t make music like that anymore x
@@triskits_mmm This song actually peaked charts for 6 weeks before being overtaken by the Kinks' "Stalin Was Pretty Cool," so, yes, this song is VERY real.
@@NobleRaider2747 no shit he's being sarcastic, like he was literally doing the same "nothing bad could possibly happen if you " that the song did and you can't tell?
Man this and “drunk driving is just driving” “smoking during pregnancy is A-OK” and “give your kid some booze” were my favourites. Music simply isn’t as good as it used to be
I’ve always been a fan of “Consuming Alcohol while pregnant (what’s the worst that could happen?)”, very underrated, though they never play it on the radio.
The line about "leave slightly more refuse on the ground than when you arrived" didn't sit well with me, but I can forgive them because it was the sixties
Ah yes, "Don't Extinguish" was the last part of a 6-part side 2 medley they did on their 'At Home' album in 66'. The other 5 parts were: “Push the Elderly Down Stairs” “Rat Poison for Breakfast!” “Give Out Your Credit Card Info” “Wearing Ripped Jeans is Modest” “Drive at Five”
Well, at least we won't ever have artificial intelligence citing a Beatles parody song as a credible source, and it for sure wouldn't be one of the biggest tech companies ever to release said AI.
The worst part is that we'll never know who wrote the song because no one wants to take the blame. And Paul didn't even hesitate to pin it on John post-mortem. Shows how much their friendship really meant Edit: Studio footage showed it was Paul who wrote it. It's a dark day for Beatles fans
I remember seeing the Beatles performing this song live, the crowd went crazy and the show was insane. Sad that it wasn’t publicly released until now, thank you for your service as I’ve been searching for this song for over 60 years

Brings back memories. Also love the classic “Tax evasion is not the same as tax fraud (only one is illegal)”, a precursor to George's 1966 song "Taxman"
This is genuinely perfect. Paul and George's little "wooo", John forgetting everything because of the drugs, the interviewer's reactions. Feeling a light to strong 10 on this one.
This song inspired me to leave my dog in a hot car for the first time and I could never go back now. My life has changed. Before my dog has been very aggressive and badly behaved but after I left him in a hot car he became much calmer, he just sleeps all the time and he even adapted to the hot temperature because he is cold to the touch! The only downside of leaving him in a hot car is that because he sleeps all the time he does not clean himself and is starting to be really smelly, guess I'll have to give him a bath soon...
Yeah, dogs are a modern invention created by the patriarchy to keep women in the kitchen. I don't know why they would do that, though... Makes little sence to me, really. I suppose the Patriarchy really values dog food. I mean, why else would they do it? They could have just plonked the woman into an office cubicle or at an assembly line for most of her wake life and make money from her deprivation and call it individual freedom. So I guess they really must value that dog food highly.
Here we go, another dog conspiracy theorist. How can people be so ignorant in an age where information is literally at your fingertips? You ever hear of a little country called Egypt? Well, friend, I'm sure youre under the mistaken assumption that they worshipped cats WHEN IN FACT modern historians have discovered that what they THOUGHT were cats were just anti social, pointy eared dogs. Get rektd
If you will love me Iiiiiiiiiii will love uuuuuuu... Back! There were white and yellow flaow--ers On a hill And you were sitting there with me The sun was pretty making you Hair was shiny and I saw you Oh yeah Yeah! You can't stop me ill follow you and give you Beatles everywhere until death.
I'm only 15 but this is my favorite song. I wish the kids at school liked "it's ok to leave your dog in a hot car", but my generation has such bad taste in music :(
This song is such a classic. I love it so much. This and "I Get Domestically Abused by my Alcoholic Father" will forever be remembered as the sign of the times
I remember hearing that Ringo hated playing this one live. John, George, and Paul would tell him they were going to play something else and then start this one and he just had to go along with it. Apparently they did that at a concert in Miami once and he got so mad he threw a drumstick at Paul and just kept hitting the cymbals thru the rest of the set, no footage on RU-vid tho :/
I heard Ringo hated playing the song because he himself had been left in a hot car by the other Beatles. Apparently he disapproved the lyrics after that incident.
My dad used to play the beatles while he makes breakfast for us before we go to school..so this background music is on while i tie my shoes put on my uniform and go wait for the school bus and now I'm old and he's gone and everytime i play It's okay to leave your dog in a hot car I'm back to those mornings.
This one, back in '66 was a live hit. Seen it with my girlfriend at the time down in Leeds. One of the best shows iv'e ever been to up to that point. The encore was "stupid hamsters i want to step on them' if I recall correctly. Didn't see the boys from liverpool until 71' where i think Hot Car was retired in favor of the lesser known B-Side "Seal Clubbing is my favorite passtime' hearing this video brings back so many fond memories.
I never realized how much they hated dogs, but yea you can see it in their songs. "Martha My Dear" of course was about Paul's sheepdog Martha that he left in a hot car (she died), and "Hey Bulldog" was about enticing a bulldog into a hot car (presumably to die). George was a little more subtle, like his song "Old Brown Shoe" which at first glance appears to be about leaving an old brown shoe in a hot car, was actually a metaphor for leaving his old brown Dachsund in the car. And his song "All Things Must Pass" from his first solo album, was actually introduced to the Beatles in their Let It Be sessions under the working title "All Dogs Must Pass Away (by Leaving Them In a Hot Car)." They really hated dogs.
The story does have a happy ending, luckily. Later in his career with The Wings, Paul McCartney wrote "Let Me Roll It", a song of repentance where he kindly asks his dog to let him roll down the window to the hot car he left him in. The dog almost died in this case as well, but right before that, Paul showed up with a water bottle and threw it over to the dog in the backseat, saving its life. He then continued to whistle the song while on their way to the studio to record it. The song ultimately became a hit inspiring millions to roll down the windows for their dogs if they decided to leave them in a hot car.
@@adrian-dragosbalaban6401 Sadly, it later turned out that he only did this because he knew dogs can't open water bottles and ended up giving the dog false hope before it died of thirst. Later, after seeing everyone misinterpreting his song, he released "Dogs Don't Deserve Drinks" (known as the 4 D's by fans globally), which advocated for letting dogs die of thirst. This nearly caused the Dog Drinking Depression (also known as the 3 D's), which not many people know, was directly caused by Paul
"I'd Kill God If I Could" is a bit underground because they only ever performed it once at a Bar Mitzvah but I remember it pretty well. Good song. Good times.
@@NexusKin You need music to run people over? Pathetic. All I need is the sound of my wheels bumping over the pedestrians followed by the screams and you got some catchy tunes, brother!
It's technically vehicular manslaughter because when you find out about a dog locked in a hot car, you slam the owner's head into their car hood until they're dead.
This used to be my mom's favorite song growing up. Now she's no longer with us. I don't know where we left her at, but she's not here anymore and we don't want to go look for her. Great memories. I love you mom.
0:13 The lady absolutely losing it and shaking her hair always has me dying. She's just totally jamming it to a song about killing your dog slowly in a hot car.
Fun fact: this song was actually one of the only songs by the Beatles that was written by every member. On the record sleeve it is listed as a “Lennon, McCartney, Harrison, Starr”
fun fact: paul mccartney had a sheepdog named martha whom he loved very much. he had to keep her hidden so john would not hurt her. when the day came that she had to pass, he took her to a professional butcher and made steak of her. he lovingly ate her, seasoned well and cooked medium well done.
you know, as a kid growing up in the late 60s early 70s, i was absolutely distraught to hear the beatles had broken up but - one moment i'll never forget is when they had a partial reunion in 1980 and released a song called "Where's John?" it was an absolute hit and is a personal favourite of mine.
As much as I love this Beatles classic, I also want to show appreciation to their 1969 hit "Speeding in a school zone" and "Being a bad influence on children".
I WAS born in the '60's (1964, 3 weeks before the 1st Ed Sullivan show - January 14 to be precise), but being so young, I don't remember ANY of it, so being born in those times doesn't mean you experience their wonder. I only became enamored of the Beatles and those days as I started to grow up in the '70's.
“19th Amendment Blues” “Kids Love Cigarettes” “There’s Candy In the Medicine Cabinet” “Catcall Until She Loves You” “Let’s Mix It Up! (Bleach & Ammonia)”
Or, my personal favourite: _Why don't we leave a dog in a?_ Why don't we leave a dog in a? (hot car) Why don't we leave a dog in a? (hot car) Nothing bad's gonna happen If we leave a dog in a (hot car) (not to be confused with "why don't we do it in the road" completely different)
