Bye Bye, Love - George Harrison

Bye Bye, Love
F. Bryant, B. Bryant

Bye bye love
Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness
I think I'm gonna cry

Bye bye love
Bye bye sweet caress
Hello emptiness
I know I'm gonna die
Goodbye my love bye bye

There goes our lady
With a "you know who"
I hope she's happy
And "old 'Clapper' too"
We had good rhythm
(and a little slide)
Then she stepped in
Did me a favour
I threw them both out.

(MMM) goodbye happiness
Hello loneliness
I think I'm gonna cry
Bye bye my love bye bye
(MMM) bye bye love (MMM)
It's gonna be a raining out of doors
(MMMM) hello happiness (MMM)
Goodbye my love goodbye

Now I'm into romance
I shy away from love
Got tired of ladies (ooh ooh)
That plot and shove me
And that's the reason
We all can (see) so clearly
They see that our lady
Is out on a 'spree'

Bye bye love
Bye bye happiness
Hello loneliness
Think I'm gonna cry

Bye bye love
Bye bye happiness
Hello emptiness

Cold Turkey - John Lennon

Cold Turkey
John Lennon

Temperature's rising
Fever is high
Can't see no future
Can't see no sky

My feet are so heavy
So is my head
I wish I was a baby
I wish I was dead

Cold turkey has got me on the run

My body is aching
Goose-pimple bone
Can't see no body
Leave me alone

My eyes are wide open
Can't get to sleep
One thing I'm sure of
I'm in at the deep freeze

Cold turkey has got me on the run

Cold turkey has got me on the run

Thirty-six hours
Rolling in pain
Praying to someone
Free me again

Oh I'll be a good boy
Please make me well
I promise you anything
Get me out of this hell

Cold turkey has got me on the run
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Maybe i'm Amazed - Paul McCartney

Maybe i'm Amazed
Paul McCartney

baby, i'm amazed at the way you love me all the time,
and maybe i'm afraid of the way i leave you.

maybe i'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time,
you hung me on the line.
maybe i'm amazed at the way i really need you.

baby, i'm a man, maybe i'm a lonely man
who's in the middle of something
that he doesn't really understand.

baby, i'm a man,
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me.
baby, won't you help me to understand?
ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.

oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
oh, oh, oh,
oh, oh, oh, oh,
oh.

baby, i'm a man, maybe i'm a lonely man
who's in the middle of something
that he doesn't really understand.

baby, i'm a man,
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me.
baby, won't you help me to understand?
ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh.

maybe i'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time,
maybe i'm afraid of the way leave you.

maybe i'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song,
right me when i'm wrong-
maybe i'm amazed at the way i really need you.

All My Loving - Jim Sturgess

All My Loving
John Lennon/Paul McCartney

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you,
Tomorrow I'll miss you,
Remember I'll always be true.

And then while I'm away,
I'll write home everyday
and I'll send all my loving to you.

I'll pretend that I'm kissing
the lips I am missing,
and hope that my dreams will come true.

And then while I'm away,
I'll write home everyday,
and I'll send all my loving to you.

All my loving, I will send to you,
All my loving darling I'll be true.

While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Rolling Stones Magazine lies

estoy enfermo, lo reconozco, mi enfermedad es una adiccion... adictiva

si, es adictivo, muy adictivo, tanto que me afecta mas de lo que deberia, me vuelve compulsivo, con sudores frios, nervios incontrolables y un corazon agitado son sus sintomas, cada vez que me pasa pierdo la cabeza, no puedo evitarlo

mi enfermedad es grave, muy extrema, a alguna gente le parece bien, pero a otras...

mi enfermedad es una obsesion, se la conoce como Beatlemania

es muy... duro, ya me entiendes, es ver algo minimamente relacionado con los Beatles y ¡ZAS!, a comprarlo en el acto siempre que el dinero me alcance, o en su defecto ir corriendo al banco mas cercano a por mas... pero todo tiene un límite, y muchas veces tengo que pensarme muy bien si merece la pena gastarse tanto

ayer no, para nada, eran unos 3 eurillos, lo vi por casualidad, en un kiosco cerca de la facultad, al igual que hicieron meses anteriores revistas como Uncut o Mojo, este mes de diciembre la rolling stones española dedica un articulo al 40 aniversario del disco Beatle mas vendido, el conocido como el album blanco, asi que, irremediablemente, lo compre

mis sintomas se habian pasado, ya tranquilo, llegue a casa y me puse a leer la revista, nunca me ha gustado, es muy muy comercial, tirando a amarillista, como la gran mayoria de lo editado por prisa, pero son los Beatles y se deja leer hasta que...

...hasta que...

.... Leo lo siguiente "Eric Clapton salvó la cancion de George" refiriendose a While My Guitar Gently Weeps, en letras grandes de titular y varias veces a lo largo del articulo, a lo que yo me pregunto ¿se habra documentado Josu Lapresa o es fan de Clapton? ¿o simplemente ve que hay guitarra de Clapton y se inventa el resto para justificarlo? porque mucha historia Beatle no conoce

en el 68 los beatles estaban como estaban,y un dia llega el bueno de George Harrison al estudio, que estaba vacio, y graba la canción con una guitarra acústica, pieza que se puede encontrar facilmente en el Anthology y que ha sido utilizada para el Love con un cuarteto de cuerda al final, lo dejó grabado y se fué

en esto que luego llega George Martin, ve que se ha pasado George y lo escucha, y lo flipó en colores, cuando vinieron el resto de los Beatles tambien lo fliparon, ya que fue cuando se dieron cuenta que George podria ser (y lo fue) un gran compositor, tanto que entre Lennon y McCartney añadieron un par de versos a la cancion y estribillo, y decidieron grabarla, ya que es un album doble y hay sitio para todos, al fin y al cabo, si iba a entrar Revolution 9 no podian dejar While My Guitar Gently Weeps fuera

así llegamos al dia de la grabación, antes estaba George con su amigo Eric Clapton y George le dice que le quiere en la canción, con lo que ahora el que flipa es Clapton, "tocar con los Beatles, y ademas en su siguiente disco, es algo de lo que me siento muy afortunado" diria años después

total, que llegan al estudio y George da instrucciones muy precisas de como quiere que suene su guitarra, en esta sesion es de las pocas en las que estuvieron presentes todos los Beatles a la vez en este disco, al finalizar la sesion Clapton comentó "no entiendo por qué me habeis pedido esto, suena demasiado a mi, no a Beatle y mucho menos a George"

y esta es la historia de por qué la revista miente y esta es la historia de lo que realmente sucedió en torno a tan maravillosa canción

Por Ultimo, recordaros que mañana se cumpliran 7 años del triste fallecimiento del gran George Harrison, asi que recomiendo rendirle tributando escuchando alguna cancion suya al menos, o si no un disco o un concierto a su memoria

Johnny B Good
Chuck Berry

Deep down Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play the guitar just like a ringing a bell

Go go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Johnny B. Goode

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineerswould see him sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
People passing by they would stop and say
Oh my that little country boy could play

Go go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Go Johnny go
Go
Johnny B. Goode

His mother told him "Someday you will be a man,
And you will be the leader of a big old band.
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying Johnny B. Goode tonight."

Go go
Go Johnny go
Go go go Johnny go
Go go go Johnny go
Go go go Johnny go
Go
Johnny B. Goode

Here Comes The Sun - Voodoo Glow Skulls

Here Comes The Sun
George Harrison

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right
It's all right

When We Was Fab - George Harrison

When We Was Fab
George Harrison, Jeff Lynne

Back then long time ago when grass was green
Woke up in a daze
Arrived like stangers in the night
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - back when income tax was all we had

Caresses fleeced you in the morning light
Casualties at dawn
And we did it all
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - you are my world you are my only love

And while you're in this world
The fuzz gonna come and claim you
But you mo better wise
When the buzz gonna come and take you away
Take you away
Take you away

The microscopes that magnified the tears
Studied warts and all
Still the life flows on and on
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - but It's All Over Now Baby Blue
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - like this pullover you sent to me

Fab
And You've Really Got A Hold Me
fab - long time ago when we was fab

God - John Lennon

God is a concept
By which we measure
Our pain
I'll say it again
God is a concept
By which we measure
Our pain

I don't believe in magic
I don't believe in I-ching
I don't believe in Bible
I don't believe in tarot
I don't believe in Hitler
I don't believe in Jesus
I don't believe in Kennedy
I don't believe in Buddha
I don't believe in Mantra
I don't believe in Gita
I don't believe in Yoga
I don't believe in kings
I don't believe in Elvis
I don't believe in Zimmerman
I don't believe in Beatles
I just believe in me
Yoko and me
And that's reality

The dream is over
What can I say?
The dream is over
Yesterday
I was the Dreamweaver
But now I'm reborn
I was the Walrus
But now I'm John
And so dear friends
You'll just have to carry on
The dream is over

Liverpool 8 - Ringo Starr

ringo homenajea a su ciudad natal aprovechando que este año es su año cultural


Liverpool 8
Richard Starkey

I was a sailor first, I sailed the sea
Then I got a job, in a factory
Played Butlin's Camp with my friend Rory
It was good for him, it was great for me

Livepool I left you, said 'goodbye' to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around
Liverpool I left you, but I never let you down

Went to Hamburg, the red lights were on
With George & Paul, and my friend John
We rocked all night, we all looked tough
We didn't have much, but we had enough

Livepool I left you, said 'goodbye' to Madryn Street
I always followed my heart, and I never missed a beat
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around
Liverpool I left you, but I never let you down

In the U.S.A. when we played Shea
We were Number One, and it was fun
When I look back, it sure was cool
For those Four Boys from Liverpool

Livepool I left you, said 'goodbye' to Admiral Grove
I always followed my heart, so I took it on the road
Destiny was calling, I just couldn't stick around
Liverpool I left you, but I never let you down

La la la la la la... Liverpool

Band On The Run - Paul McCartney & Wings

si nadie lo impide vamos con el mes beatle en solitario



Band On The Run

Paul McCartney

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,
Never seeing no one nice again like you,
Mama you, mama you.
If i ever get out of here,
Thought of giving it all away
To a registered charity.
All i need is a pint a day
If i ever get out of here.

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash as we fell into the sun,
And the first one said to the second one there i hope you're having fun.
Band on the run, band on the run.
And the jailer man and sailor sam were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh seeing no one else had come,
And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run.
Band on the run, band on the run.
And the jailer man and sailor sam, were searching every one

For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down.
In the town they're searching for us every where, but we never w ill be found.
Band on the run, band on the run

And the county judge, who held a grudge
Will search for evermore
For the band on the run, band on the run, band on the run, band on the run

Across the Universe - Rufus Wainwright

Across The Universe
Lennon/McCartney

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
That call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing
Through my open views inviting and inciting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
million suns, it calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai guru de va om
Nothing's gonna change my world,
Nothing's gonna change my world.

I've Just Seen a Face - The Beatles

quiero ver la pelicula, solo por curiosidad, que a mi me gusta mas la original





I've Just Seen a Face
John Lennon/Paul McCartney

I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just meet,
She's just a girl for me
and I want all the world to see
We've met.

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware,
But as it is I'll dream of her tonight.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I have never known
The like of this, I've been alone
And I have missed things
And kept out of sight,
for other girls were never quite
Like this

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just meet,
She's just a girl for me
and I want all the world to see
We've met.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

All You Need Is Love - The Beatles

recientemente le preguntaron a Brian May (Queen) qué banda sonora le pondria al planeta Tierra, el contesto que All You Need Is Love, yo le doy la razon al estar de acuerdo, y asi empezamos el segundo año de la canción de la semana



All You Need is Love
George Harrison/John Lennon/Paul McCartney

Love, Love, Love.
Love, Love, Love.
Love, Love, Love.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.

Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.
It's easy.

Chorus:
All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

Chorus

Nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.

Chorus

All you need is love (All together, now!)
All you need is love (Everybody!)
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need (love is all you need).

Photograph - Ringo Starr

Photograph
George Harrison/Richard Starkey

Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.

I thought i'd make it the day you went away,
But i can't make it
Till you come home again to stay-yi-yay-yi-yay.

I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears i cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey.

Now you're expecting me to live without you,
But that's not something that i'm looking forward to.

I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears i cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey.

Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.

Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not coming back anymore.

Ev'ry time i see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all i got is a photograph
And i realise you're not.

Live And Let Die - Paul McCartney & WINGS

Live And Let Die
Linda Eastman McCartney

When you were young and your heart was an open book
You used to say life and let life
(you know you did, you know you did you know you did)
But in this ever changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry
Say live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die
Live and let die

What does it matter to ya
When you got a job to do
You gotta do it well
You gotta give the other fellow hell

When you were young and your heart was an open book
You used to say life and let life
(you know you did, you know you did you know you did)
But in this ever changing world in which we live in
Makes you give in and cry

El disco más influyente

hoy hace 40 años de esto:

el disco más influyente de la historia, un disco que al intentar superarlo hizo que los Rolling, Bowie o los Beach Boys se deprimieran o hundieran en la miseria del fondo del rock, estos últimos no supieron salir a flote ni muchos años después, un albúm de los mejores de la historia, probablemente el mejor, y hoy cumple 40 años un disco que marco un antes y un después, tanto en la música como en la psicodelia y en la forma de hacer discos, un disco con mucha historia detrás, pero ya habrá tiempo de contarlo en otra ocasión
