Great really great info about the song "Hey Jude." Thanks heaps! "PEWDIEPIE OUR INSPIRATION" that is the name of my latest KZread video. I used a Beatles song to get my ideas going. Can you guess what song I used?
John was wrong. He did help write "Hey Jude" by making his son's life so miserable that Paul was inspired to make it better.

Well, John was idealistic; has a vision for peace and love.
If Paul’s said it’s for Julian it’s for Julian lol. What doesn’t really match the idea for it being about a 4 year old is the “looking for someone to perform with” and “go out and get her” and I can see that (maybe) being about John, but also probably just words strung together that fit the melody or with the intentions of giving the song a wider subject matter for a greater chance of relatability among listeners.

I've always loved this song and never noticed John's screw up of the lyric 'To let her under your skin' so it was nice you pointed that one out. Also kudos to Ringo nailing that drum part even under those funny circumstances. Just goes to show that he truly is a great drummer no matter what anyone says. Thanks for the informative video.

I like that you have started adding your own original songs to your videos. Keeps the inspiration rolling forward. Love the little backwards guitar at the end of this one, and it's a beautiful song. Thanks for sharing your work!
I've been waiting this for so longgg!! Finally!! Though I already knew the back story but just want to listen to your perspective.
This is crazy ‘Hey Jude’ was the first Beatles song I ever heard and it’s funny that you showed that clip of you because that’s my birthday!!

Hey man Thanks for offering some variety of good videos. In this awful awful times it entertains me so much. It fills the holes in the time that I have at my hand with some Beatles stuff that I never searched before. I always heard about Beatles but I never truly listened to them before. I found "because" a month ago and fell in love with it. I found your channel because of "because". It really helps me to learn the melancholic yet cheerful stories about them. Hope you have a nice day and be safe . Wear a face mask. Love ya ! ❤

Beautiful video I had never noticed that in the recording there was John's mistake. And your song is beautiful too.

Regarding the change from "Hey Jules" to "Hey Jude", Paul said that he felt that Jules as a lyric was a bit of a mouthful.

When lyrics flow while singing, the writer doesn't even know where they are coming from, because they are coming from the subconscious. John knows this. I bet he's right.
great video bro
You should make a video on why Beatles music is so good, like is their ability to make such amazing songs with simple toons, their creativity and experimental behavior or could it be some kind of clever phycology tricks in their Lyrics? I think it would be an amazing video Idea!

They had a jukebox of fave hits to be inspired by. Or to steal from, borrow and mix from. I dont like much of their work. But I do love the work of lady gaga and I can hear how her songs are remixes and mashups of different songs. A familiar feel. So yeah that's how they did this.

What is that Ringo Starr drum insert audible anywhere on this clip? If so, does anybody have a “minute:second” indicator where I can find it?
The original song at the end has a few bits that are really really interesting.

No no, here's the real story: The Beatles were going to record a new song. But as soon as the tape started, Paul dropped his bass on his foot and yelled: "Fuckin' hell!!!". And because The Beatles were very poor, they had to use what limited stock of tape they had available, so they decided to record really loud instruments to cover up Paul's swearing. But the song they were working on wasn't loud enough, so Paul quickly went off to the bathroom for 5 minutes, and returned with Hey Jude. And everyone agreed that this song was indeed loud enough to cover up Paul's naughty words. But they were wrong. And 50 years later, "Fuckin' hell!!!" can still be heard on the record, clear as a bell.

Hey Jude was the biggest hit of the sixties for a reason. It's the best song I've ever heard.
My question is more about the second half. Which puts me in a complete trance.
I think subconsciously, Paul did put some lyrics in there for John. He may have hated that John was leaving him, but knew that stopping it wouldn't be respectful

I hope and pray Julian is doing well today
Any chance you could do any Nirvana songs? Great video as usual!
Brilliant song and sad that Julian went through a rather dislocated relationship with John. Julian looks so very much like his father and has written some good songs himself!

Hey guys Ive just made a full instrumental cover of This Boy, my all time favourite Beatle song! I spent lots of time and effort on this cover to make it as accurate to the original record as possible. If u guys could give it a quick peek, it would mean the world to me :)
Holy shit my highschool Teacher 10th grade told me it was about heroin no that was in the 1979/80 i never questioned it we did a whole class on it.
Paul wrote only the first line of the song with Julian on his mind. Clearly, this song is not about a little boy. " Still others, including Lennon, have speculated that in the lyrics to “Hey Jude“, McCartney’s failing long-term relationship with Jane Asher provided an unconscious “message to himself“. McCartney and Asher had announced their engagement on 25 December 1967, yet he began an affair with Linda Eastman in June 1968; that same month, Francie Schwartz, an American who was in London to discuss a film proposal with Apple, began living with McCartney at his St John’s Wood home. When Lennon mentioned that he thought the song was about him and Ono, McCartney denied it and told Lennon he had written the song about himself."
If it wasnt for Yoko we never would have gotten this song..
I know about John's mishap, I Just never knew the "oh!" Right before he says fucking hell wasn't planned.
The Beatles were a Tavistock creation and wrote nothing until the white album the exchange between Billy (Paul) and George was the dynamic of the studio
Buena!
Where did the green eyes come from
I think that Julian was an outlet for Paul's love for John. At least, partly. I'm sure that he cared a lot for Julian, but with John it was much harder to express his affection, and Paul spent it on Julian. Thoughts?

I heard Paul McCartney and Howard Stern talking about the song and Paul said he never wrote it... I was glad it was out in the open
I’m a different kind of 14 year old... I became obsessed with the Beatles like two months ago and I literally have listened to every one of their songs now. I love almost all of them with the occasional exception of a sh*t song imho.. they have recently became all I listen too.. I have watched every one of your videos on them I’ve watched all their films (I even sat through yellow submarine) and I’ve watched 3 documentaries on them, 2 on Johns life, 2 on Johns death. Literally every single interview any one of them has been in (including the countless ones with yoko, of whom I have no respect for whatsoever because of what she did to Julian) every single recording of them live there is, every music video. And I’ve listened to a sh*t load of bloopers and hours of different takes and demos. I’ve researched so much on all four of their lives I know them better than the people I actually know at this point.. I am completely and utterly obsessed and I literally don’t even care.. but point is thanks for making these videos to help fuel my obsession.

I always thought it was for John. Could be for both. For John then and for Julian later as a young adult. Why would you tell a child "go out and get her."? The wording seems better suited for an adult with some emotional baggage. It was a kind gesture though.

Nice back story. No one is perfect. Each Beatle is respected for their own contribution, and their own shortcomings. Just like any other human
In 1968 John wrote "Hey Bulldog" and Paul wrote "Hey Jude" as a response. Only joking!
how so sad makes me cry What John and Ono did to Julian
Are you sure that it was John who said fuckin hell? I’ve read that it was Paul. ???
6:13
Julian Lennon looks and sounds just like John. The resemblance is crazy. Well, not really since they are father and son. But they look a lot a like
The song was written about John not Jullian Paul was afraid that John would find out that the song was about him. Hey Jude ( John) don’t make it bad.( the marriage with Cynthia) Take a sad song( their marriage) and make it better( work on your marriage and forget about Yoko) Paul thinks that maybe John realized it was about him later on.
So very good. Empathy. Supurb.
Their music was written by George Martin and played by session players Paul McCartney died in 1966 and was replaced by William Shepard aka Billy sheers
Yoko looks like anya.. hope they make movie starring Dichen Lachman
To bring every one together to sing nannana duh
They can tell a thousand times that Hey Jude was adressed to Julien, but the lines makes no sense to a little boy.
