The Beatles’ Classic and Popular Songs (141–150)
You Won’t See MeThe Beatles
A track from Rubber Soul.
The first Beatles song to exceed three minutes.
It had never been performed at concerts for a long time, but in recent years Paul debuted it live, earning roaring applause from fans.
The distinctive feature is the harmonies by John and George.
Day TripperThe Beatles
Among the Beatles’ songs, this is an uptempo track with one of their most famous guitar riffs.
Although it was written by John, the lead vocal is by Paul.
The backing vocals by John and George have that quintessential Beatles feel.
Its structure is simple and powerful, but the lyrics are cynical, reflecting the character of their mid-period work.
Tomorrow Never KnowsThe Beatles
It’s a John track with an avant-garde, uniquely driving beat that hardly feels like it’s from the 1960s.
The seagull-like sound effects, created using tape reverse and sped-up playback, were devised during studio experimentation.
John’s vocals are processed, as if echoing from the other side.
The lyrics are philosophical as well.
I Saw Her Standing ThereThe Beatles
Between 1961 and 1963, it was one of the songs The Beatles frequently performed at the Cavern Club.
The original title was “Seventeen,” which was changed for the album.
The song’s bassline was inspired by Chuck Berry’s track “I’m Talking About You,” which had a major influence on The Beatles.
All My LovingThe Beatles
It’s a pop, up-tempo ballad written by Paul.
John didn’t sing backing vocals so he could focus on the triplet guitar chopping.
In live performances, George sang the main melody of the third verse while Paul added harmonies.
Her MajestyThe Beatles
“Her Majesty” is a short Beatles number that appears as a hidden track on their 1969 album Abbey Road.
Its charm lies in its brevity—the song ends just 23 seconds after it begins, making for an astonishingly fleeting experience.
Yet that very brevity is what makes it so memorable.
In fact, Paul McCartney performed the song in front of Her Majesty the Queen in 2002.
With that anecdote attached, it’s a perfect pick for karaoke.
It’s a track that tightly packs the Beatles’ pop energy, and despite its short length, it’s sure to hype up the room!
Music of the BeatlesThe Beatles
The Beatles thrilled young people around the world from the 1960s into the 1970s.
Their songs are still loved and performed by people of all ages today.
Among the Beatles’ numbers, “Music of the Beatles,” which brings together their bright and poppy tunes, is a classic that lifts listeners’ spirits.
Wind bands have a wide variety of timbres, making it easy to create different images for each piece, so a medley performance would really shine, wouldn’t it?
