    Strange version, many differences. This is not the version to listen to, don’t know what it even is. Listen to the original Harry. And, echoing what many others are saying, even though there are pieces of songs, we know this as one majestic creation, and that is the way you should listen and enjoy.

    The original version is much better. This one is pared-down. If you think this one's beautiful, listen to the original, with an orchestral symphony behind them on "Once There Was a Way to get Back Homeward". Makes it so much more stunning. Also, at the next to last part, before "Her Majesty's A Pretty Nice Girl", (where it originally was last), includes a blend of the Beatles' harmonies, singing, ..."and, in the end, the love you give is equal to the love you make."

    The entire Abbey Road album is as close to musical heaven as I expect to ever come and especially this medley! It sounds as beautiful and fresh as it did fifty plus years ago! Their genius lyrics, their humor, their ability to make my ears ascend to a divine place. The songs are out of order here, but otherwise it’s a great reaction. This string of songs is etched into my DNA because I have listened to this album sooooo many times, so it’s a little startling to hear it out of order and not the original polished version. (I guess that’s my neurosis). It’s delightful to watch somebody listen for the first time. Thanks Harri 😍 I just got to the end of this version snd realized it omits one of my favorite Beatles lyric of all times! “And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make” Genius!

And the much overlooked Octopus's Garden and Maxwell's Silver Hammer delighted me to no end. It really is wonderful seeing people like our Harri hearing The Beatles. Cheers.

But they are more or less on the same level and it’s utter brilliance. They stand above the rest of the Beatles’ fantastic work, which is saying quite something.

    Hey Harri, this is not the original 1969 Abbey Road version. This is a so-called "restored version" put together for the 50th anniversary of the re-release of AR in 2019. It's not the original "medley" that made Side 2 of Abbey Road so famous. Putting "Her Majesty" right after "Mean Mr. Mustard" kills the energy build-up, momentum of the medley, was not the intended and final arrangement back in '69. I've heard this 2019 "restored version" only once, and that was enough for me! 😲 Here's a brief story behind the arrangement of Side 2 you would find interesting. There was a rough draft of side 2 (as there was with every album arrangement), that was played to Paul who told the engineer to get rid of "Her Majesty" and replay it. It flowed much, much better and Paul told him to print it that way, something to that affect. The engineer on his own decided to "save" Her Majesty and put it at the end with a 15 second lead, the album was printed/released that way, and Her Majesty was not even listed on the cover! John said they liked surprising fans with things like that, his backward voice on "I'm So Tired" and other things. So, no matter what anyone else tells you this version was not "supposed to" or "meant to" be this way. If this had been the version on the original release it would not have been impactful or memorable. But Harri, you must take in the whole Side 2 uninterrupted as it all flows together. You can with this video link and please react (or just listen for your own enrichment) to the ORIGINAL 1969 side 2 in this video to compare, played from an actual vinyl LP record and it sounds great for vinyl!... kzread.info/dash/bejne/onV9t9qAnpzSc6w.html ✌️😎 Oh BTW, we always took Her Majesty as about the Queen herself! They had received their MBEs a few years earlier and since the Beatles kinda poked fun at the establishment we assumed that was Paul having fun with it. Not printing on the cover helped to fuel that rumor! And other thing about this medley version, the tracks don't sound the same as on the original album, so listen to that vinyl Side 2 link end to end, and I think you will understand... kinda like the difference between "Revolution 1", and the energetic "Revolution" single release. 😁👍

    Yes Harry, you'll have to go back and listen to the album version on your on. A must. There are so many versions of classic albums these days, it's difficult to figure out what the right one is. I hear many people reacting to versions that would not have been released back in the day. Although this Abbey Road version is not too bad. The order is different and some missing instruments. It lacks the final luster the Beatles final releases always have. And while you're listening to the original final, you might as well listen to the whole of side two - "Because" is so beautiful. Don't miss it. And it's a tragedy you missed the final guitar solo trade offs, and the final "message."

    What was missing from this, in the area of Ringo's amazing drumming, is the guitar battle with John, Paul and George trading off with some incredible lead guitar playing spotlighting each. Overall, the medley, although a mix of unfinished songs, works out perfectly as a whole. One tune blends into the next one in a way that makes it sound like one long jaw-dropping composition. The Beatles, as a band, were coming to an end, and they wanted their final album, with all four of the Beatles, to showcase their abilities in an unforgettable way. The song, "The End", summed up the end of their career together very nicely.

We who lived that era see the impact clearly. They changed everything. From night to day. Instantly. No other group can match that claim. The chances of another comparable impact are a virtual impossibility in my humble opinion so great was the swath they leveled.

    You know it was an early cut of the album when you heard “Her Majesty” in between “Mean Mr. Mustard” and “Polythene Pam”. In the final album release, “Her Majesty” is at the end of the album and, in fact, there is about 20 seconds of music silence before it finally plays. I really recommend you listen to the album release because there are some great musical elements missing from this version that you will also very much enjoy. And that last song where you heard Ringo’s drum solo also includes a guitar solo each from Paul, John and George. And, to top it off, Paul writes a short and compelling lyric that got added to the very end of the song. I could write it here but I don’t want to be a spoiler. 😉 Yet another great reaction, Harri. 😁

    : You never give me your money" is my second favorite Beatles song, never see it reacted to. Thank you, Harri 💕 so good to hear it. You should treat yourself to watching the movie "Sgt. pepper:s Lonely hearts club band" movie. I think you will love it as well as be tripped out by it. Love and peace. That last song I really missed the part where he sings in the end "and in the end, the love you give is equal to the love you take' Great reaction, Harri. I grew up with this album playing all the time by my brother.... know it by heart. Thank you, Harri 💕

    Hi guys..Ive seen most of the comments and usually i try to reply as much as i can.But this time,the subject matter is more or less the same,so i thought i'd post this for all to see. This version was on The Beatles official channel.There was no way for me to know it was a different version since i had never heard these songs before. And you guys never warned me😭😢 But i actually loved it! Maybe thats cos to me it was the only thing i knew or heard and have nothing to compare it too.😀 Maybr somebody could pls send me a link.of the original? Cheers✌🏾

    I think I sent this link before Harri: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pXt_ucmzcdKzpNI.html There's no real original on KZread, but this is the one that comes the closest. It has some stuff in the intro that shouldn't be there and at the end "Her Majesty" has a longer guitar outro which was kind of cut off on the album, but I'd say it's about 90 to even 95% of the version we all know.

    There is another medley sequence at the start of Sgt Pepper where the show starts with the album title track and then Paul says " May I introduce to you the act you have known for all these years' Billy Shears " And Billy turns into Ringo who goes into his song.

    Gotta hear the medley as it was originally released with full production and properly sequenced. The version you heard is a bonus from the 50th anniversary release. It is intended as a peek into their creative process. Paul nixed "Her Majesty" because it was too abrupt and told the engineer to cut it and pitch it. The engineer couldnt just throw it away so he put it on the master tape 23 seconds after the album ended. Paul liked the "accident" and left it as the album's coda. Once again, you have to hear the FINISHED VERSION! PS please no more Shakira

    The version of the medley that you reviewed is the original version. The version on the album is the edited version with Her Majesty removed. Paul asked for it to be taken out of the medley and discarded. But the engineer thought better of it and put it on the end of the tape.When they played the tape back and Her Majesty popped up at the end unexpectedly,they loved it and put it on the album as the last thing you would hear.

Things are simply missing in this mix, but everyone else and their brother already told you.

    -On album original Her Majesty is at the end and not a part of the medley; more like an afterthought. - Mean Mr. Mustard is a John song. You can tell not so much by the lyrics but by the fact that he’s lead vocalist. That’s how John and Paul worked it. - Everyone knows George had grown into a great guitarist by then and it shows. But listening closely, if one doesn’t hear that Paul is one of the most creative bassists you’ll ever hear or that Ringo’s drumming is extremely underrated, you’ve missed a lot. - The mixing on Carry That Weight is not the original. Piano has been raised and bass/drum fills lessened. - That’s Ringo’s only solo in any Beatles song. - Vocals completely missing on last two songs. You’ve been gypped. GET THE ORIGINAL!!!!!
