Help... Take 1

Here's The Beatles goofing off while lipsyncing.... not sure if its the bad sound-picture sync, but man, they can't remember the words. Its funny how Paul keeps trying to block George's head from the camera. It cracks me up when they start bouncing on the plank everytime they reach the chorus. Then in comes the fake snow!!!!

Man... what a great clip, makes me almost forget that other steaming pile of shit I posted....

The First Music Videos





These are the promo videos the Beatles made for "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "Penny Lane". These are the first videos of their kind that don't show the band playing... the images are there purely to compliment the music. Instead of apperaing on shows like "Top of the Pops" performing their new single, the Beatles sent these videos instead....

Hope you enjoy them!

Prince to do Beatles??

There's rumours going around that Prince will release an album of Beatles covers... he's been covering a few in his Vegas concerts lately.... namely "Come Together" and "The Long and Winding Road".

Personally, I'd love to hear his versions.... anything to bring their music back is always a good thing. But, no one can ever know exactly what Prince is planning next... so don't pay too much attention to the rumours.

2007: All You Need Is Love


My mantra for 2007


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.

There's 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 in time

It's easy.

All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.

All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.

There's 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.

All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
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.

Psychedelic Bullshit

This is an onfficial promo video of the new Beatles "Love" album... I know its the trippiest song they ever produced, but what's with all the crappy, acidy patterns. It doesn't look like a trip, it just looks like it was slapped together by someone whose never taken a drug in their life. I mean, the whole thing is just cliched... all done before.

This video, however, uses the same songs (plus a few extra) and manages to feel very druggy, and very 60's... so what that it doesn't show the Beatles, I'm sure you could composite them in somewhere. Least with the last lot of Beatles music released, they put some effort into the videos... "Real Love" and "Free as a Bird" had awesome videos... very complex ones for when they were made actually. Not this crap that looks like it was knocked off in an afternoon.

Love


After being asked by the remaining Beatles, Ringo and Paul, along with Yoko Ono Lennon and Olivia Harrison, to make experimental mixes from their master tapes for a collaboration with Cirque du Soleil, Sir George Martin, The Beatles legendary producer, and his son Giles Martin have been working with the entire archive of Beatles recordings to create LOVE. The result is an unprecedented approach to the music. Using the master tapes at Abbey Road Studios, Sir George and Giles have created a unique soundscape. The release of this album, which is also featured in the Cirque du Soleil/Beatles collaborative production of the same name at The Mirage in Las Vegas, has been much anticipated.
