~ Paul McCartney - Coming Up (Music Video)
Views: 77581 |  |  |  |  | PLEASE SUSCRIBE! =)
"Coming Up" was the opening track from Paul McCartney's McCartney II album, written by McCartney and released in 1980. Like the rest of the album, the song had a minimalist synthesized feel to it. It featured humourously-processed lea ...More d vocals from McCartney, who played all the instruments and shared harmonies with wife Linda.
Despite his ambivalent feelings about McCartney's solo success, John Lennon was complimentary of this song, and it partially inspired Lennon's own 1980 comeback.
"Coming Up" is also well known for its video. It is an early example of electronic trickery, with Paul McCartney playing ten roles and Linda McCartney playing two. The "band" features Paul and Linda's imitations of several famous rock musicians; some are more easily recognizable than others. The characters include Hank Marvin (guitar), Mick Fleetwood (drums), Ron Mael of Sparks (keyboards), a, 'Mania-Era' version of Beatle Paul (bass and backing vocals), Andy MacKay (sax), Frank Zappa (sax), as well as a long-haired guitarist (strongly resembling Neil Young), two sax players and a male backing singer (performed by Linda) that have yet to be identified with any certainty.
Lyrics
Want a love to last forever
One that will never fade away
I want to help you with your problem
Stick around, I say
Coming up, coming up, yeah
Coming up like a flower
Coming up, I say
You want a friend you- can rely on
One who will never fade away
And if youre searching for an answer
Stick around. I say
Its coming up, its coming up
Its coming up like a flower
Its coming up. yeah
You want some peace and understanding
So everybody can be free
I know that we can get together
We can make it, stick with me
Its coming up, its coming up
Its coming up like a flower
Its coming up for you and me
Coming up, coming up
Its coming up, its coming up, I say
Its coming up like a flower
Its coming up
I feel it in my bones
You want a better kind of future
One that everyone can share
Youre not alone, we all could use it
Stick around were nearly there
Its coming up, its coming up everywhere
Its coming up like a flower
Its coming up for all to share
Its coming up, yeah
Its coming up, anyway
Its coming up like a flower
Coming up |

~ The Beatles - No Reply

High Quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfmhL4kOgMA&feature=email&fmt=18
Copyright - 1964 EMI Records Ltd.
"No Reply" is a song by the Beatles from the UK album Beatles for Sale and the US album Beatles '65. It was wri ...More tten by John Lennon and credited to Lennon-McCartney.
The song is about a young man who is unable to contact his possibly unfaithful girlfriend, even though he sees her through her windows.
Originally John Lennon had intended to sing the higher harmony part of the chorus, as this was the original melody. However, his voice had deteriorated due to excessive use and Paul McCartney had to take this part, relegating Lennon to the lower harmony line.
According to Lennon in 1972, the Beatles' music publisher Dick James was quite pleased with "No Reply":
" I remember Dick James coming up to me after we did this one and saying, 'You're getting better now — that was a complete story.' Apparently, before that, he thought my songs wandered off. "
Reviewer David Rowley found its lyrics to "read like a picture story from a girl's comic," and to depict the picture "of walking down a street and seeing a girl silhouetted in a window, not answering the telephone".
This song has been covered by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and is slated to be on their next album.
Tonality and form
The song is in the key of C major. The song form is standard AABA (verse-verse-bridge-verse), without a chorus as such, but including the refrain "No Reply."
Recorded Abbey Road Studios
30 September 1964
Lyrics:
This happened once before
when I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn't you
but I saw you peep through
your window
I saw the light
I saw the light
I know that you saw me
'cause I looked up to see
your face
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
that's a lie
'cause I know where you've been
I saw you walk in
your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
'cause you walked hand in hand
with another man
in my place
If I were you
I'd realize that I
love you more
than any other guy
And I'll forgive
the lies that I
heard before
when you gave me no reply
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
that's a lie
'cause I know where you've been
I saw you walk in
your door
I nearly died
I nearly died
'cause you walked hand in hand
with another man
in my place
No reply

~ The Beatles - Nowhere Man
Views: 18667 |  |  |  |  | The Beatles - Nowhere Man
High Quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sq-LCc2D25w&fmt=18
Copyright - 1965 EMI Records Ltd.
"Nowhere Man" is a song by British 1960s rock group The Beatles, from their hit album Rubber Soul (in the U.S. on the Yest ...More erday ... and Today album). Though the songwriting credit is Lennon-McCartney, it was actually penned almost entirely by John Lennon. (Paul McCartney helped to "polish off the rough edges".) It was recorded on October 21 and 22, 1965. "Nowhere Man" is among the very first Beatles songs to be entirely unrelated to romance or love, and marks a notable instance of Lennon's philosophically-oriented songwriting. It was released as a single 15 February and reached #1 in Canada and #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Interpretation
When the song first appeared during the 1960s, many of the Beatles youthful fan base interpreted the rather hard-edged lyric, which satirizes the "Nowhere Man" as someone who "just sees what he wants to see" and who "don't know what [he's] missing", as directed against their parents' generation and conformism generally.
Lennon, however, claimed that he himself was the subject of the song. He wrote it after racking his brain in desperation for five hours, trying to come up with another song for Rubber Soul. "I'd actually stopped trying to think of something," he said. "Then I thought of myself as Nowhere Man — sitting in his nowhere land Lennon told Playboy: "I'd spent five hours that morning trying to write a song that was meaningful and good, and I finally gave up and lay down. Then 'Nowhere Man' came, words and music, the whole damn thing as I lay down."
If factual, Lennon's explanation places the song with Lennon's earlier "I'm a Loser" and later introspective and self-critical songs, both as a Beatle ("Yer Blues") and as a solo artist ("Jealous Guy"), rather than Lennon's "counter-culture" songs such as "The Word" and "All You Need is Love" (as it was perceived at the time).
McCartney said of the song: "That was John after a night out, with dawn coming up. I think at that point, he was a bit...wondering where he was going and to be truthful so was I. I was starting to worry about him. "
Other recordings
The British folk group The Settlers recorded the song in 1966. In 1976, Jeff Lynne of ELO recorded it for the evanescent musical do#@!&entary All This and World War II. The song was also performed by the Bee Gees in the 1978 Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band film, with Barry Gibb on lead vocals.
Also, in 1967, the Carpenters performed a piano/vocal version in Joe Osborn's garage studio. In the late '90s/early '00s, Richard tried to de-noise the tracks after it was nearly destroyed from a fire in Joe Osborn's house in 1973, and added strings and woodwind lines to the song.
In the animated movie Yellow Submarine (1968) The Beatles, on their way to save Pepperland from the Blue Meanies, encounter Jeremy Hilary Boob, Ph. D., a strange, little, brown-furred man with a blue face, pink ears, and tail, who lives in the Sea of Nothing, speaks in rhyme, and describes himself as an "eminent physicist, polyglot classicist, prize-winning botanist, hard-biting satirist, talented pianist, good dentist too." The band realizes one of their songs sums Jeremy up well and they sing "Nowhere Man" about him as they cavort with his magic in his nowhere land.

~ The Beatles - Don't Pass Me By
Views: 9453 |  |  |  |  | The Beatles - Don't Pass Me By
Copyright - 1968 EMI Records Ltd.
"Don't Pass Me By" is a song by the Beatles from the double album The Beatles (also known as the White Album). It was Ringo Starr's first solo composition, and he sang lead. It became ...More a number one hit in Sweden.
Origin
Its earliest mention seems to be in a BBC chatter session introducing "And I Love Her" on the Top Gear program in 1964. In the conversation, Starr is asked if he wrote a song and Paul McCartney proceeded to mock it soon after,singing the first line "Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue", but stopping after that. But, the song is unmistakably "Don't Pass Me By" with very slightly different lyrics. The song has a very predictable 3-chord blues structure, apparently leading McCartney to mock it.
Recording
The song was recorded in three separate sessions in 1968: 5 and 6 June, 5 and 12 July. Despite references to the song in 1964 as "Don't Pass Me By", it was called "Ringo's Tune (Untitled)" on the 5 June session tape label and "This Is Some Friendly" on the 6 June label. By 12 July, the title was restored.
During a lead vocal track recorded on 6 June, Starr audibly counted out 8 bars, and it can be heard in the released song starting at 2:30 of the 1987 CD version.
George Martin arranged an orchestral interlude as an introduction, but this was rejected. In 1996, the introduction was released as the track "A Beginning" on The Beatles Anthology 3 CD.
The line "I'm sorry that I doubted you, I was so unfair, You were in a car crash and you lost your hair" is cited by proponents of the Paul is dead urban legend as a clue to Paul's fate; the line "you lost your hair" is claimed to be a reference to "When I'm Sixty-Four", which was written by Paul McCartney.
Lyrics:
I listen for your foot steps
Coming up the drive
Listen for you foot steps
But they don't arrive
Waiting for you knock, dear
on my old front door
I don't hear it
Does it mean you don't love me anymore
I hear the clock a ticking
on the mantel shelf
See the hands a moving
But I'm by myself
I wonder where you are tonight
And why I'm by myself
I don't see you
Does it mean you don't love me anymore
Don't pass me by
don't make me cry
don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
How I hate to see you go
Don't pass my by
Don't make me cry
I'm sorry that I doubted you
I was so unfair
You were in a car crash
And you lost you hair
You said that you would be late
About and hour or two
I said that's all right
I'm waiting here just waiting to hear from you
Don't pass me by
don't make me cry
don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
How I hate to see you go
Don't pass my by
Don't make me cry
One two three four
five six seven eight
Wu
Don't pass me by
don't make me cry
don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
How I hate to see you go
Don't pass my by
Don't make me cry |

I was inadvertently watching a re-screening of a mint condition copy of a 1968 do#@!&entary called 'Music' and managed to record all but a few seconds of the Beatles insert. It shows them rehearing 'Hey Jude' in the recording studio. I did miss the first few seconds of John goofing about, present in the circulating clip. Save for the 'fwip' at 1:16 of this clip it's brilliant quality. Now, where's the rest of the footage in this quality?

~ Shirley Bassey - THE LIVING TREE - Official Video
Views: 167219 |  |  |  |  | Official video for Dame Shirley Bassey's new single, The Living Tree, released 23rd April 2007. Unique and visually exciting, the video is included on the enhanced single alongside seven fantastic mixes.
Please visit dameshirleybassey.com where you ca ...More n order the single and join the mailing list to be sure you don't miss any of the exciting things coming up.
It's difficult to know where to begin when it comes to describing Dame Shirley's incredible career which has spanned over 50 years. Having just celebrated her 70th birthday The Living Tree single and album prove age is no barrier for creating incredible music.
The original Welsh Diva and one of Wales' greatest musical exports, she stands tall alongside fellow Welsh singers Charlotte Church, Katherine Jenkins, Tom Jones, Cerys Matthews, Dorothy Squires, Bryn Terfel and Bonnie Tyler to name but a few.
The Living Tree was written and produced by Catherine Feeney and Nikki Lamborn of band Never The Bride. DSB fell in love with it after a chance encounter in Monte Carlo, where she now lives.
During her career Shirley has also collaborated with Swiss band Yello on The Rhythm Divine. She sang with Chris Rea on his Ferrari inspired film, La Passione, and probably most famously with The Propellerheads whose international club hit History Repeating propelled her into the spotlight. It featured on the soundtrack to the movie There's Something About Mary starring Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz and was the music behind a Jaguar car ad.
Shirley is the only singer to have recorded more than one James Bond Theme. She recorded three! Applauded by John Barry, Sean Connery and David Arnold, her hit records Goldfinger and Diamonds Are Forever ranked as the two best Bond themes ever in a recent poll, where she comfortably beat fellow Bond singers such as Tina Turner, Madonna, Paul McCartney, Matt Monro, Gladys Knight, Sheryl Crow, Lulu and Sheena Easton to the top spots. Casino Royale star Daniel Craig recently suggested DSB should record the next theme - after hearing The Living Tree you can't help but see he's got a point!
In recent years Shirley's recording of Diamonds Are Forever was sampled by hip-hop star Kanye West.
DSB has performed duets with acts such as Neil Diamond, Andy Williams, Alain Delon, Michael Ball, Bryn Terfel, Charles Aznavour, Jack Jones, Robert Goulet and Eydie Gorme and shared a stage with Ray Charles and Liza Minnelli on a successful tour.
Dame Shirley was the star of the M&S Christmas TV ad with her sparkling version of Pink's Get The Party Started. The ad, filmed in a spy movie style, featured models Twiggy, Lizzy Jagger, Erin O'Connor, Laura Bailey and Noemie Lenoir as undercover agents on a secret mission to attend an exclusive performance by DSB at a glamorous Christmas party.
DSB premiered The Living Tree at the 2005 Royal Variety Performance, acknowledged as the best in recent years. She topped the bill in her birth town of Cardiff closing the Welsh-flavoured show in spectacular style. Another highlight of the event was Catherine Tate asking the Queen "Is one bovvered?"
In a recent episode of American Idol (the US equivalent to The X-Factor) contestants Jordin Sparks, Lakisha Jones and Melinda Doolittle all chose Shirley Bassey hits to impress judges Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul. Chris Sligh said "Shirley Bassey rocks hard core" and presenter Ryan Seacrest proclaimed that it was Dame Shirley Bassey songs that ruled the night.

Email Brian Ray received:
Dear Sir,
I am the attorney at law for Mrs. Rose Bush and on her behalf must make protest of her outrage at the suggestion implicit within the lyrics of your latest record release. My client would like to make it publicly clear that your blatant disregard for her sensitivities is very hurtful in regard to the nonchalant use of "everything", "up" and the apostrophed 's' in the words of your song. My wronged client would like a disclaimer printed on the sleeve of your record to the effect that whilst she may or may not have enjoyed an occasional tryst with the gentleman clearly defamed in your song, there is no evidence whatsoever of the deviant behaviour that you infer. In particular she would like it known that the "everything" referred to will only serve to revive talk of the use of the rubber hose, butt-plug and bag-pipes which my client has always fimly denied ever came anywhere near her. Kindly be more careful when writing your rock and roll and try to not look so sexy when playing the guitar.
Yours faithfully,
Eagle The Legal. x |
