You make bad videos
So they brought in a bunch of musicians, including two guitarists, so what did they all play on the final cut, could it have been all of it? Is there even more to this story than was even told?
@@jethrox827 what do u mean lol more to this story? More to the rooftop performance? It's songs off what we now know as the let it be album. Dig a pony, I me mine etc. I've only ever heard the audio so excited to watch it. Sorry that I didn't understand your point. I must be having a low moment lol💙

I will never stop loving the Beatles because their music is like the soundtrack of my life since I was 5 years old in 1981.
And their influence continues: kzhead.info/sun/Zr5pld6yh4SElKc/bejne.html
I was five years old in 1969…and I know exactly what you mean. They will be timeless for sure.
Same ☝ I kept asking my dad to play "the album with the faces", meaning Revolver's cover, which fascinated me. And still does.
I feel the same, but for me it started in 1964 when I watched them on the Ed Sullivan show. I was 6 at the time.
Same since I was about 4 in 1987. My Mum always tells people my Brother and I know every word to every song. She’s not wrong 😂
How much I still miss The Beatles. I hear them with joy but my heart aches.
É só entretenimento. Se divirta e ñ fique triste.
Very well said indeed!
Verdade!
Agree, sadness without John and George
Stated perfectly 💜
In 1977 as a 6 year old I discerned that The Beatles were the most beautiful thing to ever have existed. 44 years later I have never changed my mind for a minute. In fact they are the most beautiful thing that will ever exist.
I agree completely with the sentiment. But 42 years later only gets us to 2019??
Yeah they were one of the first bands I “discovered” when I was a kid. But like so many popular bands at the time did they use ghost writers and session musicians? It’s an interesting question? kzhead.info/sun/lsd-mNGJZ39qeZE/bejne.html

I remember seeing people sleeping on the streets outside the ABC cinema in Edinburgh around winter 1963 waiting to get tickets for the Beatles. My parents thought they were crazy. I bought my first Beatles single, I Feel Fine, in 1964 at a record shop on the High Street in Edinburgh.
watched them on ed sullivan in '64 in NYC I was 10 still the best
you ended up being quite right :)
As one of the original editors of “LET IT BE” I look forward to seeing this new version. Graham Gilding
Wow. That's amazing to read. I was actually think about something like that the other day. How it's not just fans that are about to get a immense, rare privilege, it's everyone. Young kids that are just discovering the tunes, the musicologists that have read every book, the engineers and crew that helped create it, people that saw the original edit, even the surviving Beatles..... everyone of them is seeing this footage for the first time ever..... at the least, it's the first time in fifty years that even the band gets to see it. I can't imaging any aspect of getting to see something like this resurface after having been involved in creating the original document. Absolutely insane.
@@hoirecords John & George RIP.
To absent friends! 🍻 RIP

50 years later... unbelievable!!!
The Beatles turning the musical industry inside out 52 years later with a successful #1 top selling box set, and an award winning documentary
Doing the same every ten years or so.... Anthology series, the Love album... There forever interesting. McCartney's 123 on Disney is great watching too
@@Tweej well yes, however those didn't have the reputation of being tagged rubbish, and negative infighting which we will find out was all nonsense. Anybody who's had a close friend for any amount of time for best part of 10 years or more will know arguments and disagreements happen to be a part of that.
put out by apple is it? hmm who is making the money I will have to ask. the apple label is used. they had a falling out with apple if my memory is correct

So many years and The Beatles still are the better rock band of whole world... 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶 And it will never change!!!
That picture the family got at the end is unbelievably good. There are tens of thousands of pics like this, but man they nailed it
Yes, and what a lucky family to be included in this little video which is on the Beatles official KZhead channel. For all to see until the end of time!
It was truly great and near perfect. If only the Dad was barefoot!!!
@@stingfan16ify My big regret - I agree, if only I took my flip flops off!!!!!!!
It's even used in anime. Check out the K-ON movie at 1:00:53.
Yeah, but the fact that there's no Volkswagon beetle or Police Van totally spoilt it for me... and where is the girl in the blue skirt?
Their music moves me to tears. I was a baby when this album was recorded. The dark haired girl in the red jumper said it. They are part of our collective cultural conciousness.
I am Jamaican my intro to the Beatles was their image appearing on lunch kit
the greatest band of all time

I'm sorry but the grunge era in the 90s was just as good
@@kartoffelgratin050 I love the 90s too. But 60s just wins out I think. And as a single band, Beatles are pretty much unmatched for their influence.

the Beatles changed my life in 1964 i was only 9 i became a muso, played in a band still do today and a guitar teacher thank you for changing my life at a young age long live the Beatles
“Let it be” should be the theme song for everyone, it means so much, way ahead of their time.
The Beatles will be remembered forever
I miss London. I miss the Beatles.
The Beatles have meant so much to me, "in my life" as they say. They opened my mind as a kid to something beautiful beyond the grey northern English world around me. They also made me feel that working-class kids in northern towns can aspire to be more and think more deeply about the world and art and music and that's OK. The world and my entire life would have been much smaller and more grey without them.
I suspect we may be long lost brothers because you have succinctly summed up how I feel about them.
Eat some 'shrooms. NFA.
You have been tricked. Beatles was fake and nothing more than a boy band / cover band. kzhead.info/sun/a8ytldhvhWuDZX0/bejne.html
@@kongmik yeah I’ll just watch this 4.5 hour video lol
Thanks for sharing! I live in the US and this music reminds me of my mom driving me to school as a kid playing With The Beatles. Their music means so much to so many different people
A timeless masterpiece
*Yesterday, today and forever The Beatles, the biggest band in the world*
"Yesterday and Today" and "Rubber Soul" were such GREAT albums. But the next one, "Revolver" in 1966, really rocketed them towards the higher orbital paths.
''attracts me like a cauliflower'' always gets me
Their music has been there for my highest highs and my lowest lows.And the beauty is probably a billion people feel the same
There are no words to describe how talented and wonderful they were.
RIGHT??!!!!
The Beatles still providing the most exciting material of the year!
"Their music is timeless"
I saw them in concert Dodger Stadium 1966 something I'll never forget. I have all their albums on vinyl.🇫🇷💙🏃. Arnuad Bourbon Amaral

Centuries from now, people will still listen to them like we listen to Beethoven or Mozart today. The stars must have been aligned when those four got together.
Brought tears to my eyes. I'm 40 and my daughter is 15 and is possibly even more in love with The Beatles then me. Didnt know that was possible. Can't wait to see this doc.
I was an only child and never knew my father but growing up in the sixties, I had four big brothers that always made me smile - thanks John, Paul, George and Ringo
IN short, the 1960's were a pivotal time in the history of music, and the Beatles were front and center, leading it all.
I love the Beatles!
Thank you Peter Jackson. Cannot wait to see his latest masterpiece
To really understand and appreciate The Beatles you have to go back in time to the late 50s early 60s when the production was like a assembly line. Someone wrote the song, someone else sang the song, someone else played the music. Beatles came along and did it all, and did it better. Wrote , sang, , played, with their own unique sound and look. The originators of Rock n Roll. To write a song takes a effort. To write a song that becomes a hit, you have talent To write a song that becomes #1 your on top of the charts To hold the #1,2,3,4 and 5 spot on billboard's top 100 songs Of April 1964 all in a row.... You're on top of the world. A record that will never be broken. It is highly possible that no other group of four young men will ever get together and do what the Beatles did for the music Industry. They revolutionalized and changed the world. Thank you John Paul George and Ringo. For those who missed it, I'm truly sorrow. For those who were there to experience it, wasn't life grand?
Yes it was and is, im a 65 year young. Beatle fan since feb 64 and will be till death do us part!
To hold the #1,2,3,4 and 5 spot could it be they were using ghost writers and session musicians like a lot of popular bands at the time were? kzhead.info/sun/lsd-mNGJZ39qeZE/bejne.html
@@phadrus ya Chris....and Star Wars is real.
Speaking as a musician, think about how HARD it is to write a memorable song. Or a memorable guitar part, or bass part, or drumming part. Then ponder that the Beatles did this hundreds of times. Truly mind-boggling.
@@coolk3dat754 well I suppose you’re entitled to your opinion
It's interesting, what's mentioned at about 06:00, how Billy Preston's presence improved the mood, and cheered everyone up. I think the main reason for that was that Preston was a "guest" and the guys were conscious of it and were careful to behave themselves. When it was just the four of them (and George Martin and whatever technicians were there), it was more like it was just "the family" and they were less inhibited whenever they got annoyed or lost their tempers. And by this time, they had been together so long, and stored up enough resentments with each other, and their creative differences were getting strong enough that when they didn't have a guest present to motivate them to be on their best behavior, they _could_ get downright nasty to each other and make each other really angry. It was quite literally a case of familiarity breeding contempt. But people mind their manners better around guests and strangers. Preston's presence, I think, motivated them all to hold that back a bit, and almost certainly kept them from getting under each others' skin, and thus the old friendship and camaraderie reemerged and let them have fun working on this while they were minding their manners.
OK Boomer.
Cool story bro
That makes sense doesn’t it? Since at the time it was reported that they weren’t getting along and the original get back documentary highlighted all that tension?
Perhaps, Mate. Peace, Rocky
Or Billy Preston is such a happy, smiling character it puts people in a good mood
I was born February 9, 64, the night of the Beatles first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show. Having older brothers the Beatles have been connected to every event of my life, like as landmarks or milestones from early childhood, teenage girlfriends to wives, children's births, divorces and deaths of friends, brothers, sister, parents and lovers. Beatles songs take me back to so many laughs as well as the tears I've cried! Like so many of you, Every breath and Grace note, I have them all attached or embedded in the days and years of my life. My birthmark is the Beatles!
The Beatles gave the world so much positive vibes in sound music genuine fun love and laughter
The Beatles are timeless.
I will never get tired of listen to them, everytime I do is like listening to new music, something that I never heard of, their music is UNIQUE
Always loved them, always....since I was born! And this film makes me love them more!!!!!!!
wow that is so nice of you to be a big fan from child old up to date, which of their songs make you loved them till now
60 years on and The Beatles are still the best music act of current time. Not a single music act can upstage them or get this much attention. On November 25, the world will get back to where it once and always belonged!
This music is amazing at 2021
I'm a life long Beatles fan. I took a trip over to London in the summer of 1974 when I was 18. Stayed with relatives in Ealing. I walked from Picadilly Circus over to Savile Row and sat on the front steps of the old Apple building. I thought of how many times the Beatles had been there and I could still sense there vibe as I was sitting there. It was classic. I went over to Abbey Road and Abbey Road studios too. Back then there were no tourists hanging out in those places.
In my heart i'm a punk.....But I never forget that I started with the Beatles...
I saw Beatles live in Hammersmith Odeon. I am 71 years old. It was a highlight in my life for sure.
could you hear anything?
Definitely one of the best films ever made, was in tears for eight hours... Absolutely Beautiful...
I want to thank Ringo, Paul, Yoko and Olivia for letting the world to see this through PeterJackson. I think the world needs this right now.
They were the greatest of all time
It's been a great year for us beatles fans
I remember, to this day, being in England in 1964 as a 7 yr old child and hearing a song on the radio. It was the first time I ever heard a song on the radio. Not that the radio wasn't playing songs all the time, but this was the first time I actually "heard" a song. I was at my Nan and Grandad's house in Luton, and this song came on. Like nothing I'd ever heard before. At the time I didn't know who did it and even today, I couldn't tell you what song it was. But, it was like fresh air being pumped into that old row house. I heard the music for the first time in my life. And even if I don't remember the song...I will always remember the sound. It was the Beatles. I've been a professional musician now for almost 50 yrs because of that moment. Still playing gigs. Just now in the Texas Hill Country. It's been quite the journey from that day in Luton so very long ago.
In 1965 i payed the exordinate amount of $5.50 to see the Beatles in concert in Mpls. I have to say, it changed my life forever putting me on a path to be a musician in a band and making a living. Thank you John, Paul, George and Ringo!
I was born in ‘77 in England. I shit you not, I remember the day Lennon was taken from this earth and how somber and how thick the air was at my house. Everything seemed like it was running in black and white and in slow motion. I was 3. As young as I can remember, I was playing my dads fav Beatles LP’s (Rubber Soul, With the Beatles, Abbey Road and Revolver) and of course, scratching them in the process 😳😳😳 Long live the Beatles and Johnny Moondog
The greatest band of all time and timeless inspiration for nice renditions.
I feel Paul's voice was never recorded better than it was in "Get Back".
The legacy the Beatles left is simply so huge and so monolithic it almost defies description. Their presence in the world is of historic proportions, and they are not likely to be completely forgotten in 100 years from now or even 200. The fact that people still retain such a strong interest in the Beatles and their music more than 50 years after the band broke up, is proof of the indelible mark it left on the world.
The Beatles were outstanding gentlemen who wrote beautiful songs about love.
u4true ... John once said all their songs were abt love.
My son and I had the pleasure of visiting Abbey Road Studios in August, 2018 for a lecture in Studio Two (!) about the magic that lives there. There are no feelings to compare with the ones of walking into the enormous room or walking up the stairs to the control room and I will never forget watching as my son played the final chord of "A Day In The Life" on one the four pianos used (the "Mrs. Mills" piano), the one played by Paul and Ringo. The lanyard I was given at the start of the tour will always hang by my bedside and I sometimes kiss it goodnight. It was a honor and a privilege and if you ever get the chance (they offer the lecture from time to time), GO! Your life will be complete.
I get it! believe Studio 2 is Holy Ground. They opened it up twice this year in August and now November (don't quote me), but no pics were allowed. I hope they'll do it again in 2022. I plan to be there.
Four lads, talented musicians, genius's with instruments. Impacting the entire world forever. Beautiful!!! 🎶🎸🎹✌️🤟 How many lives were and continue to be touched by the Beatles. We will never know 👍☮️
The Beatles is timelessness itself
Love the guy that struts onto the roof with his hat and pipe, he's right into it.
Rock and roll will never die as long as Beatles songs are played on air.
I remember buying "Please, Please Me", as a little 7 year old kid in Australia and then buying every subsequent Album when it was released. I'd consider they had a big influence in how I see the world and my place in it for which I am grateful.
someone in australia was smart enough to release obla-di-obla-da as a single in australia, knowing it would go to number 1, which it did
Best band in the world that changed music forever, sad they no longer exist, but their music never gets old
I love them from my childhood to this day at age 61. That's how lovable they are.
I LOVE THE BEATLES
I Love The Beatles! 😍😍😍😍
Oh god... at the end of this video, I had this huge grin on my face and some strong goosebumps. I discovered The Beatles just over two years ago and I already have countless memories with them. I love *George, Ringo, John and Paul* for more than just their fantabulous music.

Soundtrack to my life certainly...from 1962 until now and I've never faltered .
You have to be in Europe. We didn't hear of them in the US until 1964. At least, very few people had heard of them in this country.
@@TampaDave Yep correct, England, most of the top bands at the time were emerging from Liverpool...Love me do was released in 62, America got it in 64.
Love em or hate em, you can’t deny the greatness the Beatles brought to the world. It’s funny because people old and young know who they are in someway or another
I’m grateful that my dad brought me up around old school music. I introduced myself to the Beatles but I wouldn’t have loved old songs without him❤️
Wow… just seeing these locations is making me kinda emotional.
Just a little bit? I have tears in my eyes.
Michaël Materne I can assure you, you aren't the only one!
@@TampaDave Entire generations. This anecdote if anyone still doubted it: A few years ago, in a crowded bus, I remember this teenage girl wearing a pair of sneakers illustrated with the group's logo. I approach, and ask her where she got it. - "I customized it myself" she replied, very proud! Crazy, right?
A few people in 1963 were prescient regarding the Beatles' legacy. There were fads aplenty, like the '50s hula hoop, with a short shelf life, but, here it is, sixty-one years from the original formation of the group, and their personalities and music still captivate the world.
To my uncle and musical godfather José Q. thank you so much and I miss you ... Nov 7th 2021 🎸😥
I watched the Get Back sessions the other day and I was blown away. I've always liked their music but to watch them put the words and music together was amazing.
The Beatles were magic.
The best band of all the time ❤️
Thank you to The Fab four for giving us things to talk about 50 some years later and will carry on for many more years we love you very much into the surviving members Paul and Ringo thank you!
Amazing,...their music will never get old. Cannot wait to see the new videos.
Holding back the tears.
Thank you Peter Jackson for your work on this amazing last live performance, and how it all came together!
The Beatles music is a part of our DNA.
4 dudes channeled something from somewhere i don't yet know of. Pretty cool, especially in relation to the state of the world now. EDIT to add: ❤️
lovely music, lovely movie, lovely queen's english. こういう英語を聞けると安心できる
My dad listened to them when they were about originally, I found his albums in the loft in the eighties and proper fell in love in my teens, my daughter played my CDs as a kid but has again fell in love with them in her teens. I can't wait to watch with her, sadly my old man missed out by a few years.
Timeless? Without a doubt. Not just because the songs stand the test of time but I think more importantly their music lives on in the music that subsequent generations of musicians play who continue to be so influenced by them. They are reborn again and again.
It's so pleasing being with people who knows the beatles and listen to them ❤🥀🍂
beautiful just beautiful .....
The Best rock & roll Band ....ever !!!!
Very humble, very real. Lovely
Can't wait for the 57 hour long Peter Jackson director's cut! 😀👍
