1. the outro of “Lovely Rita “, with John  and Macca making those moaning sounds with the piano just tinkering in the back and that bassline is UNFF. I’ve never understood why I doesn’t get talked about a lot more.

2. in “Strawberry Fields Forever “, at around the 1:26 mark, you can hear what sounds like a tape being played backwards, which I figured was Paul’s doing since he was always messing with tape loops.

3. the end jam of “Strawberry Fields Forever

4. the really fast, sunshiney piano bit that plays at the end of “Tomorrow Never Knows

5. in the stereo mix of “Baby You’re A Rich Man “, from 0:03 to 0:05, you hear John moan a little, saying something along the lines of “ah ohh” (this was removed for the mono mix)

6. for Take 5 of “Got To Get You Into My Life ” (which can be found on Anthology 2 ) at 2:41 where John starts maniacally singing “deerituuhh deee dee dee” he sounds like an old witch and it’s so cool

7. Paul’s bass playing at the end of “Good Morning Good Morning ” which can be heard better on Take 7 off Anthology 2 starting at 2:04 when he’s double-bassing(?) it and then at 2:10 he plays this really silly, cartoony bassline. It gives me chills.

8. in “Sour Milk Sea” when George sings ‘Find out what’s going on there’ and the chord change change that goes with it. 

9. also, the last ‘orchestral orgasm’ in “A Day In The Life “, followed by that last piano chord always leaves my brain on the floor.

 

I”ll probably add more later but these are my top faves

I know what you mean about the outro but it’s the intro of Lovely Rita  that gets me (supposed to have been played in an Abbey Road stairwell?)  It’s the combination of the guitars and the simple slow piano.  I always wanted a never-ending loop of it.  But when John sings ‘Aaaah’ I know I it’s time to come down!  If you listen carefully, the outro is definitely a bit rude!  I don’t think most people ever notice.

well, yeah it is meant to be rude.

The outro is supposed to be Paul and Rita “getting it on” with Lennon being Rita and moaning to climax at the end before he says “you better believe it”

2 minutes and 58 seconds that John speaks of a curse Hey Jude (do not know if I can say here). Just thinking that billions of people love this song and show to their children and not even notice it, I find very funny (without wishing to belittle the music, of course).
When in A Day In The Life , the chord fades and Ringo from a small slip (you can hear in the background there). I still remenber more

It was too low in the background for me to make out on the set-up I was listening to it on. :-( I’ll have to listen to it with another set-up.

The outro of “Strawberry Fields Forever ” < drum rhythms, clanging one-note guitar, and mellotron >  to me resembles strongly the outro of Brian Wilson’s “Caroline, No” < barking dogs, approaching and passing freight train creating Doppler effect, barking dogs as train recedes.

The whole song is a giant grab. 

“Hey, what you’re DOOOIING”

“I’m, feelin’ BLUEEE AND”

Loonelyy.

Most probably my favorite song they ever done.

Here is Joe’s article about the song which includes a blurb about this – last paragraph of page 2.

It is easier to hear with headphones or ear buds. Like Ken Scott said in the article – once you hear it the first time, you hear it every time – headphones or not.

The little tickle-under-the-chin guitar part 1:43 of the way thru ‘Another Girl ‘. 

Its great how they re-used a key component of ‘She’s A Woman ‘ for that song and yet neither sounds nothing like the either.

@Hey Jude

It’s a bit difficult to explain,since it is very normal for us Brazilians. But I’ll try. I’ve been researching and for you (British and American) would be something like “Lol”. For us the “k” is not the pronunciation that you have (that would be “key”, is not it?). For us it is the same sound as “car” (without the “r”). Something like cacacaca. In short, laughter, lol … could you explain? If ou do not tell me that I give a better way!
Hugs.

We pronounce the letter K the same way as you do, Rita Eleanor. We just don’t use it for ”lol”. And kk is actually something elese entirely in Dutch.
