The second installment is up, highlighting a few special spots on With the Beatles.

Tell me about your favorite "bits" on this album, won't you?

 

Of course!! Although I haven't heard enough With the Beatles (I might correct that by uploading onto my mp3 player) I must say I agree with you in all of the bits but these are other things I love.

 

It won't be longer : Those yeah-yeah.. man I love them. I can picture John and Paul looking at each other singing.

It's also a contributing factor to the PiD myth, considering that Paul was the 2nd beatle.

Wow, really? I guess I have had the wrong version all along! My whole life has been a lie!
 
I'll have to go download that... I wonder what version I have?

The same thing happened with Mean Mr. Mustard and me... I had the Anthology version for months thinking it was the album version (I didn't know any better at the time!) until I was at a friend's house and she played it, and I said "...what!'

I await the next installment- this is great!

Though, you're missing a great part of Money (That's What I Want)! The last two choruses, I believe, when John wails "Wwwwwwelllllllllll give me money-eh..." The money bit is perfect, and then descends to a lower, manageable "eh." Excellent!

I myself, in 'I Saw Her Standing There', only listen to the "one, two, three, FAW!" And, pray tell, which 'come on' are you talking about in your 'Please Please Me' entry? a-hard-days-night-john-3

 

Also one of my favorite bits. And I think Please Please me is growing a lot on me. Man, I should start listening to With the Beatles and Beatles for Sale more often ...

 

So, my question is, is this analysis going to be done for all the albums??

Uh-oh ... I think I've discovered a fellow George-o-phile. :)

 

(That is, if profile pics count for anything.)

 

You do. What I admire of him the most is that he could make a name for himself in The Beatles despite living under the shadow of Lennon/McCartney. a-hard-days-night-george-2
