I like the bass on the movie's version of Silly Love Songs. The Eleanor Rigby overture version sounds nice though.

My favorite version of 'Yesterday', 'The Long and Winding Road' , 'Wanderlust' and 'For No One' is from Give My Regards to Broad Street... I dont get why people think its an awful album.. maybe the movie though. 

Well, DO you know the original versions?

If not, I think it's possible to like the GMRTBS versions.

And even if you do, people care for the craziest things, if you like it, fine with me, doesn't hurt anyone.

The production of the songs is abyssmal. It sounds thin and artifical, as I said. They sound like demos.

I posted my thoughts on this film elsewhere. I want to say its ok but its not - a few nice scenes but overall it sucks bigtime. The album is just as awful.

 

Why is Give My Regards in the White Album section?

Sorry about posting on wrong blog. Not sure how to move this to right section.

Fixed now. I can move messages and topics (I think all the moderators have the ability to, but it's easier if messages are posted in the right place to begin with!)

I have seen the whole movie, just never all together.

I like the music in the movie, and my favorite is Silly Love Songs. I don't know why, but I just think that part of the movie is really funny. I like how everything is white, and then some random black guy comes out and starts dancing, lol.

I used to really like these versions of Yesterday and Here, There, and Everywhere, but they're not as good anymore. My favorites are Give ...]]> Wed, 12 Dec 2012 02:49:17 +0000 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/give-my-regards-to-broad-street/#p61067 Paul McCartney http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/give-my-regards-to-broad-street/#p61067 I wouldnt say its his worst album simply because of No More Lonely Nights, a fantastic track that doesnt deserve to be caught up in the utter garbage that sits alongside. All the remakes, not just the beatles tracks but also Pauls solo material, are far far far worse than the originals and utterly incredibly pointless adding nothing of any goodness to his catalogue whilst sucking every ounce of decency from the originals. The new tracks (Not Such A Bad Boy & No Values, cant remember if there are any more) are just as dreadful with dire lyrics and tunes you want ...]]> Wed, 12 Dec 2012 00:00:28 +0000 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/give-my-regards-to-broad-street/#p61053 Paul McCartney http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/give-my-regards-to-broad-street/#p61053

I know this album gets a lot of negative reviews but I have always liked it. I wanted to see if anyone else thought this was a good album. My favorite songs are the three song trilogy: 'Yesterday/Here, There and Everywhere/Wanderlust. I also like 'Eleanor's Dream'. I know he is just re-hashing some of his old songs but I thought the album flowed nicely. 

No more lonely nights is the only song on the album that is really well produced, and it's excellent with Gilmour and Paul doing really fine.

ALL the re-makes are total crap, a big, ...]]> Tue, 11 Dec 2012 18:43:02 +0000 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/give-my-regards-to-broad-street/#p61052 Paul McCartney http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/give-my-regards-to-broad-street/#p61052

I found this movie very enjoyable. Joe, I suggest you watch it. Though I couldn't really concentrate, as I was practically a pile of pudding on the couch while I watched it. Just seeing them is enough
