My list of Beatles albums from what I believe is the worst album to the best. Sorry for the slight lack of memes in this one, it's hard to meme The Beatles. Probably doing Pink Floyd next, which I already have all planned out.
@@dezmounts978 You write anything better than that? Let's hear it. Just because it's a style you don't dig or can't relate to doesn't make it a lousy song.
@William Magee he literally means "nothing interesting here" when he says "just another happy beatles song" funny how you spelled out just what he means in your argument that defends him lol
@@mirandagenevievehunt9398 Oh, I looked down on hip hop long before mumble rap became a thing. I look down on it musically, literarily, and culturally. There are only a small handful of individuals who elevate the genre as an artform. The rest rely on beats and very lazy writing. The fact that something makes you wanna get up and dance or move to the music doesn't make it art. It's the same as how something that tastes good and makes you happy doesn't make it good for you. Hip hop and to a greater extent, R&B is to music as McDonalds is to food.
@@n0denz “The fact that something makes you wanna dance does not make it art” j a z z, s o u l, r n b, gosh darn it even R O C K. I mean if you dont dance to some of the beatles song or other rocks bands youre not living right. Also “only a few individuals push the artform forward” can be said for literally any genre lol its not like every single artist/band needs to innovate something so culturally groundbreaking some people just want to chill and thats cool.
@@n0denz Also i want to know the artists you think are elevating the artform. Im guessing you’re first candidate is gonna be Eminem because im also guessing you’re more like 🤟🏻 and not ✊🏾 and this isn’t even about race but it’s the first thing I thought of when you said you look down on rap lol
@@andrewpappas9311 That was actually George’s third attempt at writing a song. The first song George wrote was In Spite of All The Danger (1958) co-written with Paul and the second one was Cry For a Shadow (1961) co-written with John
Let it be sounds like jam sessions as well apparently. The most overly produced beatles album....sounds like jam sessions 🙄. Some weird takes in this video.
The fact that it was their first standalone album and the fact that it contains Twist and Shout alone make Please Please Me one of the most important rock albums of all time.
it shows he has no clue what he is talking about. I play that on my guitar the beauty of this song cannot be over stated. Its like the planets aligned to have such an amazing chord structure. But to him its just a HAPPY beatles song. He is not an expert on the Beatles. Clearly doesnt know much about music.
I read that George Martin said once that not including "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "Penny Lane" in Sgt Pepper was a "dreadful mistake". I would agree with him, and because of that my personal list has "Magical Mystery tour" at the top.
Stefano Allari That is why I do not consider Magical Mystery Tour (and of course Yellow Submarine) technically to be a 'real' Beatles album, since Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields were previously released as a single record. Same for All You Need Is Love. Magical Mystery Tour Album was actually an EP containing only 6 songs in it's original UK release in 1967 (movie soundtrack). But the 'full' album was indeed released for the U.S. market also in 1967 (including the 3 above mentioned singles), and much later in 1976 for the UK.
@@GdF420 yes, of course I referred to the US LP version. I agree that it was a strange release, but song for song Magical Mystery Tour (of which I own a very nice EMI anniversary lp) is incredibly good.
But George said he probably would have gotten rid of "Lovely Rita" to make room for them which would destroy me because that's my 3rd favorite song on the album!
First of all I want to commend you on your unwavering ability to convince me that you know nothing about the Beatles whatsoever. At the very least you do not seem to me to be any kind of fan worth their weight in salt, or mud. I would have with more ease accepted the fact that you were making a list of the top 10 Beatles albums. However you have insulted Beatles fans (in my opinion) by making a list of the "worst"..... the "worst" do you hear that.... Crickets. As in the same cricket you would hear if you were sitting in church, and told everyone that you were going to make a list of the worst things that Jesus Christ ever said. Then assured them that you would eventually get to the best things he ever said but that you wanted to start with the worst first. And that in the progression of this list reaching number one you would tell them that you skip over some of your favorite things Jesus said, but it's still on the top of your list. Also I'd like to speak to the fact that you called songs such as Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da "a filler song"... what are the Beatles tofu?, are they soy? Honestly do you think that this is just nitpicking, or that it's a real Beatles fan that you've insulted? I believe you didn't choose not only your words more precisely, and with more care, concern, and respect... that even moreover the greater insult is the name of the video all together. I wonder if you were asked what is the absolute worst Beatles song If you could answer. If so, and if you had children could also tell me which one was your worst favorite child, then you probably could answer me as to which child you would "skip over" when it comes time to feed them, or take care of them, even show them love, and respect? Don't get me wrong it's not as if I would criticize you if you were to say which one of the members was your favorite. However for you to say which one was the worst does not fit it does not equate and it has no place in a Beatles forum type setting. Now I know that leaves it open to the argument that it's comparing apples to oranges. However I would like to profess that almost for a fact no true Beatles fan would call any of their albums the "worst", So yes in my opinion it with full validity be likened to sitting in a church full of believers in Jesus Christ and tell them all that you're going to tell them the worst thing Jesus ever said. I won't even use the argument that you were more than likely not even born when their last album came out because that's not fair to anybody that appreciates their music can and should. Besides I have a greater point to be made in mentioning that your number one album on that list that is to say not the worst of their albums but the number one album on your list has a song on it that you said you skip over.
What blows my mind isn’t necessarily how influential the Beatles are, but the fact that they accomplished so much with thirteen albums in a span of only SEVEN YEARS.
@William Magee considering he has expressed distaste for songs blending toghether and has put a lot of albums lower because of it (e.g. dookie), i mean, pretty much lol
"the next few songs kind of blend together for me" Yyeah, that's why it's called the medley. Several song fragments were assembled into a single song. "Mean Mr Mustard"'s sister's name became Pam to connect with "Polythene Pam", and so on.
@@cheeseham9503 "hey lookout!" In my mind, the medley is a precious mix of "we don't gaf anymore" and "let's do this once more as the tightest band ever", and I love it.
@William Magee Why would there be a negative connotation? I didn't detect any. It's just that a medley IS a few songs blending together. That makes his statement seem out of place in a "shaped like itself" manner.
Yes. I used to listen to it as a kid and it's so upbeat sounding and I also I was so young I never understood the deeper meaning. If you listen to the lyrics now it is a pretty dark cry for help and way ahead of its time. Even Paul says he missed that his friend was crying out for help at the time and said if it happened now he would get the person some help.
Fun fact: Sargeant Pepper was inspired by pet sounds which was inspired by Revolver! Pretty cool! Sgt. Pepper is ranked 1st in Rolling Stones greatest albums list
But at the end of the day, that's it. They're mediocre catchy pop songs. Extremely overrated imo. They deserve to be at the bottom of the list. Pre Rubber Soul Beatles dont even hold a candle to the rest of their work.
Gabriel Bennett you can say whatever you like about their more poppy hits in early beatle era but the ballads are what really stood out: Anna, till there was you, yesterday, etc I think it’s unfair to dismiss those
@@lepeselo8949 Opinion "This man is on crack" Opinion: "you obviously don't know what an opinion is" opinion "thats your opinion too isnt it fool?" Are you confused?
@@SgtPeppersLonelyHeartsClubBand i'm sorry, i taked "you obviously don't know what an opinion is" as a fact because i'm dumb, but what i meant is that the guy doesn't respected the video creator's opinion..... Also, nice picture
Actually, when the Beatles covered songs like "Roll Over Beethoven" they were reintroducing American kids to music they had STOPPED listening to. That stuff was no longer being played on the radio. The pop charts weren't Chuck Berry and Little Richard. They were Fabian and Frankie Avalon. That's WHY the early Beatles sounds so good. They were a throwback to REAL Rock n' Roll, but with very unusual chords and very tight harmonies. I heard the Beatles' Roll Over Beethoven and Rock and Roll Music long before I'd even HEARD of Chuck Berry.
@William Magee I certainly did. I was a kid in the 1960s. Chuck Berry was no longer being played on the radio - Top 40 only played current hits, there was no oldies station. I didn't start to hear 50s music until later.
Finally somebody who agrees! Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite! is an absolute masterpiece from Sgt. Pepper's. It is very creative and has some mind blowing instrumentation put into it. It is definitely somewhere in my top 20 Beatles songs and is the third best song on Pepper's.
I don’t know why so many people don’t like ob-la-di, ob-la-da or why you almost exclusively like John Lennon’s deep, very outstanding psychedelic songs, although I prefer them too (of course not only John Lennon wrote these type of songs) But they’re not all better because of that uniqueness and that particular aesthetic. Ob-la-di isn’t super unique or emotional, the song is very catchy though. But not every song needs to have this peculiar and deep meaning/sound to be good IMO, it’s a good song. What I like most about it is the lyrics, it has that very down to earth and descriptive Paul McCartney style to it, like penny lane. It’s like he’s telling a story. It’s also that variation in personality, music telling and story telling, almost like yin yang which ensures almost everyone can enjoy the Beatles, and the songs are so brilliant and different from each other. That’s why I love the Beatles.
He also left out Beatles For Sale/Beatles 65, and The Beatles Second Album entirely. Not that these are my favorites, but there are some classics on those, and for full historical perspective, they should have been included imho.
Billy-I'm 63 and lived through the Beatles 'era,' and am glad you made this video because it's interesting to me how you perceive the very same music which the older crowd know so well. I'm also interested because when my generation of people were your age we DIDN'T like our parents' music (in general) whereas your generation, by liking The Beatles, is liking your GRANDPARENTS' music. I must confess, because The Beatles' music was always the music of youth as it came out, I find it hard even now to think of it as 'older people's' music. Their songs still sound youthful and fresh to me, and mostly not 'dated.' May I give you some reactions to your video and perspectives? In the 1960s The Beatles were, first of all, unusual because their sound was different and unique compared to everything else we'd heard so far. Their 'mop top' haircuts perhaps did as much to make them stand out as their music did, and I remember a big older-generation backlash against their long haircuts. (For example, the barbershop my dad took me to as a kid listed its different haircut styles and prices and among them was "Beetle-$3.00" (the name "Beatle" was PURPOSELY misspelled to be derogatory and the $3.00 price was deliberately the MOST expensive haircut available, again to show disdain for the look and, if possible, discourage it. Even so, the look caught on fairly quickly and during the 1960s the Beatle 'mop top' cut became the norm (you can even see the Beach Boys go from their clean-cut earlier image to the Beatle haircuts and psychedelic clothes). I think we may have garnered a different perception of The Beatles at the time because we grew and developed along with them gradually as they themselves grew and developed-they 'led along' their audience, who changed readily enough, album by album, to keep up with them. Your perception of the earlier Beatles albums as not as interesting strikes me as curious, and I think it's because I retain such a love for the earlier albums because they were so novel at the time compared to everything else that was available. For those earlier albums, their penchant to write love songs most of the time wasn't received as artistic 'shallowness'-and that's my word not yours-because so much of popular music in those days was along those lines as a sort of expected and standard thing. As a kid I remember thinking "I Wanna Be Your Man" which contains the line "I wanna be your lover baby…" was a bit risqué-can you believe that? Even so, it doesn't come close to their later line "Why don't we do it in the road?" For their time, The Beatles could be a little edgy. John and Yoko's "Two Virgins" album cover was downright scandalous for its time. I think what I appreciate most about their earlier albums is that they're closer in time to The Beatles' Hamburg days when they became a tight, tight band as performers. Some of that edginess carries over into their earlier records, although they had to grow accustomed to the process of recording in the studio, which is different than playing live on a stage in a club or theater, and the studio work can be its own kind of stressful and even somewhat inhibiting experience-mainly because you're striving to not make mistakes, whereas in live performance you're striving to make great band tightness and great interaction with the audience-mistakes come what may. Again, their earlier albums are full of The Beatles finding themselves as songwriters even as they'd already found themselves as a cohesive band. I think there's also a sociological aspect to the earlier albums which can be missed by experiencing the music alone. Radio airplay in those days was perhaps an equally important exposure for their music as were records, and singles were sometimes even more important than albums (which cost more and took longer to listen to, whereas singles played on radio were short and free, and played quite frequently). What smart phones are to teenagers today the transistor radio was to my generation-just about every young person either had one or wanted one. At times during the first half of the 1960s The Beatles as people and as an image and popular phenomenon were at least equally as important as their music. Kids wanted to hear them interviewed, to read about them and see their pictures in the teen magazines, and of course to see them on TV and (once A HARD DAY'S NIGHT was released) in films. Their Liverpudlian accents and dish-it-right-back humor were novel and even captivating. When their films were broadcast on TV later, they were special events like the annual broadcast of THE WIZARD OF OZ was back then. Beatles' appearances on THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW were national phenomena as well, and all of this fueled Beatlemania, which became larger than life and than The Beatles themselves. My mom's generation had the 'bobby soxers'-the teenage girls who screamed at performances by the young Frank Sinatra-but that was small-scale compared to the firestorm of enthusiasm The Beatles caused worldwide, and for a number of years. Once they became a studio-only band, Beatlemania faded somewhat but many American kids were so hooked that we looked forward to every new album or video appearance, as Phil Collins has said, like Christmas morning when opening presents. The Beatles kept changing their music, partly to keep up with the times and partly leading the change in the times. I think where I would rate their albums somewhat differently than you did (which is OK) is in terms of the societal impact their songs made during my youth, the personal memories I have which accompany their songs-their songs being the 'soundtrack' during particular years/times back then-and so forth. For example, "Can't Buy Me Love"/"You Can't Do That" was the first Beatles single I ever bought (actually, my mom bought it for me because I asked for it), so even though CBML is a fairly straightforward early song (modified 12 bar blues verse, Intro based on the chords of the Bridge, etc.) it's special to me for that reason. But I also well remember, and still think, that as a performance that record is just EXCELLENT. Again-the early Beatles recordings got a big 'boost up' from their Hamburg days and that carried over into their early albums, probably because even when they recorded those earlier records they did it more like a live performance would be done. Later on, as four and eight track tape became available, they spent more time perfecting invdividual tracks in the studio and that can sometimes seem to take some of the live-performance 'electricity' away. Sgt. Pepper is widely considered their most important and best album, but its songs are also among the hardest to replicate if you are deeply into their music and perform it yourself. Kids in the 1960s all wanted guitars (acoustic at least) so we could play our favorite artists' songs ourselves, and the Sgt. Pepper songs are much harder to self-perform than is the earlier material or some of the best later songs. Also, many of the songs on SP are written in 'nonstarndard' song-forms. I think SP is their most innovative album where the quality of all the tracks is super high, although as a concept album it's also a very variegated smorgasbord of songs, some of which don't seem very related to each other. (And that's OK because it reflects the four of them going in different directions while still retaining cohesion as a band.) My own least favorite Beatles album is the White Album-I THINK because of the length and also because the 'vibe' of the songs is beginning to reflect the band's interpersonal tensions and cynicism/sarcasm; it strikes me as reflecting more about the band's own tensions (and perhaps fatigue as well) than being about fan-oriented artistry. My own favorite whole albums are actually "A Hard Day's Night" and "Help!" because of the tunefulness and solidity of the songs, plus the band tightness is still there. However, I also love that George Harrison's songwriting bloomed and was allowed greater exposure on the later albums. All of that said, there are tracks on EVERY Beatles album that I especially love and would't want to be without.
Thank you :) i really enjoyed reading your comment. Also sorry of my spelling on this post (i am finnish). I really understand how you think the early beatles are so good, but i dont still see how you could rank A hard days night and help! higher than sgt. peppers Abbey Road , revolver or any of the newer albums, they went to so many different directions on the later albums and they invented so many new music subgenres. I still really understand how the early beatles were so famous as they were, unlike many people of my generation. So yeah, i would like to hear a bit more on why you think A hard days night and Help! Are better than the late beatles. I dont really either see why you think that the white album is worse than yellow submarine. Yellow submarine is just songs from revolver and some mediocer songs, unlike the White album, where the Beatles experimented so much. They tested to do some Folk rock, and did it really well, and you see it in Blackbird and many other songs. The White album also have some really Weird songs, they invented metal on that record. Also there is two of The best George Harrison songs (something and while My guitar gently weeps). There is also some of the greatest Beatles songs is general on that record. Dont forget that i still really appriciate the older Beatles albums. I would rank The Beatles albums like this. 13. Yellow submarine I already explained why i dont like this. 12. With The Beatles I really like every record of The Beatles if we dont count yellow submarine. There is many good songs on this record and some ok songs. I really like too to watch the live performances of the old Beatles, i like to see how they really enjoy singing on The stage. I still have a bit of The same flaws that Billy Cobb had on this record. 11. Beatles for Sale. This is also a really good record and i kinda just have the same reasons why i like this and why i dont like this as i had with the previously mentioned record. 10. Let it be So yeah, this is the worst record of the late beatles era couse here is just a few good songs and others are ok. Why this is higher than the previous two records is becouse here is the song let it be, wich is one of my personal favourite Beatles songs. Then there is long and winding road wich is also really really good. 9. Magicial Mystery tour. This is just sgt. Peppers but much worse, The songs that Billy named on the video is in my opinion the only actually good songs on the album. I still my self have to real quick here mention hiw much i like i am the walrus, the only problem with that song is that i dont really know what they mean with the words tho. Strawberryfields forever is also one of my favourite Beatles songs. 8. Please please me. Please please me has really no bad songs, every song is good on this record, i can't even see really any just ok songs on this record. 7. Help! Help has two of my top 10 If not top 5 songs wich are unsuprisingly yesterday and help. I personaly am not really so suprised that John Lennon thinks that help is one of his favourite songs. Yesterday is also a really really beutiful, emotionfull song. 6. A hard days night. A really cool album with no bad or mediocer songs. Every single song is good. I just quickly also want to say that the main readon why i dont like the old Beatles as much as the newer is becouse the songs does not have so good meanings or any hidden meanings. 5. Rubber soul. This album is where they took different directions and experimented many different things the first time. Here the Beatles really showed the first time how talented they actually were. 4. Abbey Road. This is really really really amazing. I still thin that some people overrate this saying that this is the best album ever by anybody. Every single song is still awesome on this record. Also The third best George song and the second best Ringo Song. This record also have some of the best Beatles songs ever. 3. Revolver. Every single song is also really good on revolver. Also Eleanor Rigby is in my opinion a top 5 Beatles Song. There is also many top 20 Beatles songs on this record. 2. The White album. I already explained why i love this so much. 1. Sgt. Peppers lonely heart Clubs band. In my opinion this is the best album ever made by anybody. I dont see anyone ever making a record as good as this. The best Ringo Song on here. The best Beatles Song (A Day in The Life). Many top 10 Beatles songs (for The Benefit of me kite!, with a little help from my friends, shes leaving home and Lucy in the sky with diamonds). Remember that this was just my personal opinion. Also Even tho The older records were worse in my opinion the thing i like maybe most of The Beatles is The evoluution of their music wich of course would not be possible whitout The older or newer songs. Have a good day and a really good life! :)
I really enjoyed this Billy, thanks. I'm obsessed with them right now. They began by perfecting the 2 minute pop single and ended setting the standard for every band to follow.
"Twist and Shout" from Please Please Me was a cover of a 3/10 song that turned it into a 9/10 song. Give the original a listen and you'll see that the Beatles were not just "conforming to the style of the era". Even then, they were updating and redefining that style.
I glad that someone your age discovered the Beatles. In 1964, I was 11 & they were totally different from anything else we had heard. That is what made them popular. The fact that our parents didn't like them made them that much better. Each album grew more complex as they honed their craft. You have the advantage of listening to their entire catalog all at once and making comparisons. We waited in anticipation for each new song and album to be released to discover how much they had grown since the last release. There will never be another band that comes close to their success. EVERY band since them has copied them in some way. P.S. I like your T-shirt.
The reason let it be came out after Abbey road is because the Beatles didn't like the initial mixes Glynn Johns did, you can actually hear theae mixes in the super deluxe. George, John, and Ringo were working with Phil spectre at the time and they got him to remix the album, which is the version we know today - but his version wasn't done until Abbey road was ready to come out (or it might've even been after that idk)
Yeah you don't find people using the chord progressions the way they did today. Very unusual chord progression. I think John Lennon dismissed it himself didn't he? He'd say 'that was just a piece hack I had to write songs it was my job. I'd put myself in phony situations just to come up with a number." The chord progression in "I am the Walrus" is odder still. "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" isn't really in one key. Its sort of A mixolydian but then it goes to B flat but its sorta in F and then briefly in D and then to G...then back to A mixolydian. You don't find much songwriting like that in popular music anymore. The average listener would be unaware how many times it switches keys.
Nice work. I watched your Pink Floyd video which was well done. I was born in 1964 and grew up with this music in the background and then in the foreground. As an eight year old I played the hell out of magical mystery tour. One of my older sisters had bought it and it came with a big book And a couple of times a year they would show the movie on Saturday afternoon on one of the UHF channels out of Buffalo, NY. I still love it…
Tomas Miranda it is very overrated IMO. While I love Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, and Doctor Robert, I believe Revolver sticks to the “lovey-dovey” beatles that is usually pointed out when people talk bad about the Beatles.
On metal, yeah, Helter Skelter and Foxy Lady by Jimi Hendrix, and the name for the genre came in the same year -- 1968 -- from Born to Be Wild, which actually isn't quite a metal song. Ergo Sabbath and Zeppelin...
this video gives some really good insight onto different albums. i've been listening to the beatles for as long as i can remember. i found it really funny that yellow submarine was the lowest rank as that was my favorite when i was younger, along with magical mystery tour. a lot of what was said was based off of you not really liking their earlier stuff, which i thought was interesting because i love most of their earlier songs (maybe it's the teenage girl in me lol). i think the beatles have always had a unique sound, despite their earlier songs being sappy and lovey written. nowadays, my favorite album is definitely rubber soul. i also really love their white album. i grew up listening to sgt. pepper because of my mom, and now i have all of her sgt. pepper vinyls. the beatles undeniably made their mark on my life and the world. thanks for the cool video!
I had a musician friend who absolutely loved this song when it came out. It is also, I near as I can tell, very popular with Mexican audiences when Paul McCartney performs it now in concert. Disliking a particular Beatles song often says more about the listener than the song.
The excitement and energy of the early Beatles was dope. Lyrically simple sure, they were a new pop band. Their early shit was amazing this dude is a fool speaking ill of their “early sound”. That sound IS the Beatles.
I think the Eight Days a Week movie does a pretty good job explaining why the early stuff was such a big deal. The suits and unthreatening boy band image meant that they could bring a level of energy and expression to the table that was rare in popular music at the time, making it ok to go to a concert and lose your fucking mind. Twist and Shout was kinda radical for 1963. Also they were probably the first big act you were meant to identify with and feel like you knew, the norm for celebrity artists now.
was listening to that album today. aged like a fine wine, especially with bands like tame impala basically adopting that sound. specifically the John songs.
My favorite album. There are no down moments. Every song is an “original beatles hit”. (Maybe besides your mother should know, although i still love that song.)
Originally, the Beatles wanted Sgt Pepper to be a double album. EMI said no and some of the songs were saved and used on MMT, then Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane were added to make, basically, Sgt Pepper II.
I think it's underrated because many people consider it a US compilation album that shouldn't count, even though Parlaphone released it as a full LP later.
Jack Suss i think he was talking about how it was the psychedelic rock song that went big. While tommorow never knows is great, it didnt have the impact lucy in the sky had
1 Abbey Road 2 Revolver 3 The White Album 4 Magical Mystery Tour 5 Rubber Soul 6 Sgt Peppers 7 Hard Day’s Night 8 Let It Be 9 Help 10 Please Please Me 11 Beatles For Sale 12 With the Beatles 13 Yellow Submarine
Tad late to the party. I think shes leaving home is one of the greatest songs on the album. Following and understanding the two story lines, from the family suppressing their daughter living her life to her breaking free is so touching. It truly has to be close to home for hundreds of thousands of people. Using the contrast of John and Pauls singing to tell the story in the chorus from the parents point of view is beautiful. This is before touching on some of the musical and production choices!
This is actually a pretty good list, I'd swap Please Please Me with Beatles for Sale and Revolver with Sgt Peppers but other than that I agree with everything. P.S. All the filler songs you mentioned on The White Album are all amazing songs lmao
I respect your opinion, but I do very much disagree on your take of the early Beatles. They were always fantastic. The early Beatles made some fucking BANGERS bro.
I think it's more like there were already a ton of songs at the time that depicted love and happiness. There's nothing wrong with love and happiness (and I'm just guessing here) but I think he wanted to talk about the songs that really influenced music of today. That doesn't mean he's necessarily against it.
anonymous sponge you know he shat on their “sappy” love songs but i feel that that’s some of their best work cause it’s very genuine and true not just some one direction piece you know
@@christiancevallos9820 oh, no don't get me wrong. I absolutely love their older songs, and ya he come off kind of rude. I know this sounds like me speaking for him, but I just don't think he was intentionally shitting on their songs about love and happiness.
Bro, I used to not love the early/mid 60s stuff too - BUT if you listen properly they are really great due to the way they are composed and so, so tight and catchy. Much better than most of the other stuff around at the time - some are actually timeless IMO. Great vid.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="211">3:31</a> The debut album 'Please Please Me' (1963) ROCKS! Give it another listen, preferably the mono mix. Their next few albums are like boyband albums, but their debut is more like the rawness from Hamburg.
Good list man! In my personal opinion, every tier list should go like this, from worst to best Yellow submarine 1963-1964 1965-1970 Top 3 are Sgt pepper's , white album, and abbey road Atleast that's what i've most seen followed throughout lists, and I think it's quite frankly the general consensis on how good each beatles album is. Anyways, great video!

Silver Civic Si in my opinion the later stuff was a huge improvement over the older stuff. Still love the older stuff but the later stuff is just more matured and chill inducing.
I agree with you. The music that made the Beatles a global sensation was iconic. Catchy and will always be good. The later stuff - the beatles could've played anything, and their fans - which was more than Jesus Christ fans, would eat it up.
Exactly Come On... Early Beatle Music from Ed Sullivan Miami to Shea Stadium NY What the F...!!! The Energy The 70 Million Viewers in 64 ... All that happen by By Bad Songs at ther start.. BS = !!!. But after all that. I did ike your List & way you presented it. No doubt for your Age?? U born in 70s or 80s?.. I guess im saying your seeung them from a Historical Perspective which quite Match.the people who experienced Beatlemania directly..unfortunately like you i was born in 1959 and was only 4 old wjen they did Ed. So i started my Beatle Fan club at 8 yr by 10 it was 1969 & those suckers were just finishing.. Damm it Damm it Damm it. I was 20 yrs old when the Ass Brian Epstien scewed with their $$$ (allott of $$$)..which started the friction & seperation.. I always envied that people that were 18 yrs iold when Beatles arrived in 64.. Its just to much of an incredible Gift to my ears at 10... Thanks again you did an excellent study of Greatest. & your right. For sure regarding Abbey & Sgt lasting 100+ years from now.. But one of your replierers said global warming will kill eatth before that. Very Sad but may become true. Why does an Intellegent Being destroy its own planet for its future Children. Early 60s fid we even consider Global Warming?
Here comes the sun “Another happy Beatles song”... Come on! That’s a complete masterpiece. The composition, melody and the orchestral arrangements are just beautiful. We have to stop being prejudiced with the happy songs
@@eziospaghettiauditore8369 the song literally has a sequence of 11/8 + 4/4 + 7/8, how many times do you see that in pop? It's so amazing that you prob didn't notice it!
@@dansheffield4021 What evidence do you have other than your personal feelings? I've watched numerous people (in their twenties and thirties) on RU-vid listen to Paul's later ballads and they are blown away by how amazing and moving they are.
Nah. It wasn't even an album at first. They only made a few songs for the movie and then picked some other songs to fill the b side and release it as an LP.
