Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information

Beatles Anthology

'Is it right that you and I should fight every night? Just the sight of you makes nighttime bright, very bright. Haven't I the right to make it up girl?'

The Beatles Anthology 2


It's Only Love. Recorded in June 1965 and released on the non-movie sound track side of 'Help!' this song was written and sung by John.



'...where did you go? I thought I knew you, what did I know? You don't look different but you haved changed.'

The Beatles Anthology 2


I'm Looking Through You. This is another song where the released version is quite different from the way the song was originally recorded. In this version the 'Why, tell me why did you not treat me right..' choruses were not included.



'Nothing to do to save his life call his wife in. Nothing to say but what a day, how's your boy been? Nothing to do it's up to you, I've got nothing to say but it's okay.'

The Beatles Anthology 2


Good Morning Good Morning. Each and every song on the 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' is evidence to the months that they spent experimenting in the studio. When the album was finally released it certainly rocked the rock world.



'Who finds the money when you pay the rent, did you think that money was heaven sent? Friday night arrives without a suitcase, Sunday morning creeping like a nun. Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace. See how they run.'

The Beatles Anthology 2


Lady Madonna. If you have never listened to the Anthology cds, I highly recommend it. The early version of this song had a lot of saxophone in it, which I don't remember from the version that I listened to on the radio. This was recorded, and released, just before they went off to India to study Transcendental Meditation.



'Do you, don't you want me to love you? I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you. Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer, you may be a lover but you ain't no dancer.'

The Beatles Anthology 3


Helter Skelter. This song was one of the ones that serial killer Charles Manson and his 'Family' used as an anthem for the revolution that they were trying to start. In fact, the words 'Helter Skelter' were found written on the wall in the blood of one of their victims. Many other songs from 'The White Album' were interpreted by Manson as the Beatles calling out to him to start the revolution for them.



'...and now she sucks her thumb in wonder by the banks of her own lagoon. Didn't anybody tell her? Didn't anybody see? Sunday's on the phone to Monday. Tuesday's on the phone to me.'

The Beatles Anthology 3


She Came in Through the Bathroom Window. A slower version of the song than later appeared on the 'Abbey Road' album, this version is the original recording of the song as Paul first played it for the other Beatles.



'The wild and windy night that the rain washed away has left a pool of tears crying for the day. Why leave me standing here? Let me know the way.'

The Beatles Anthology 3


The Long and Winding Road. This version of 'The Long and Winding Road' is without orchestral adornment (which was later added by Phil Spector without Paul's consent), featuring only the Beatles and Billy Preston on keyboards.
