John's voice lends itself to another world. He understood how to use his voice and sound to evoke emotion. The lyrics are pure poetry. John would latter reject mantras in his song "GOD" as he rejected most idolatry other than he and Yoko. Let it be Naked is a much better version.

Excellent review, Harri! John was a phenomenal songwriter. May Pang once told me he would keep a notepad right by his bed in case he would dream up lyrics and he'd jot them right down so he wouldn't forget. It's great that you notice that the song is a little distorted because it was slowed down during mixing. There are a few Bside and demo versions of this song that keep the originally recorded tempo as well as a sped-up version. These variations give such subtle differences to the whole vibe. But what remains constant is the haunting melody. If I may suggest a few of my favorite Beatles songs penned by John, I'd say react to "I'm Only Sleeping"(for some groovy back-masked guitar), "Rain" (for a great example of John's duality), and "Ticket To Ride" (for a cheeky story about a guy being dumped by a prostitute). I greatly look forward to each of your videos and I love discovering your past reactions!

The orchestration and choir vocals, were added to the rough original recordings at a later time by Phil Spector. It is my understanding that John was displeased with the Spector "wall of sound" final mix, not only on that song, but pretty much the whole album.

[@ricknbacker5626]

Lennon at his lyrical best. After having been in a row with Cynthia while they were lying in bed, he had these words just start flowing out-like endless rain in to a paper cup. Johns occasional odd measure of 5/4 is used effortlessly in Across The Universe. Though he was never completely happy with how the song was recorded. Feeling slightly put off by what he considered short shift from Paul. Saying he felt Paul sabotaged some of his great songs. The Let It Be Naked version is, in my view, the best version. One of my favorite Beatles track. This is the Phil Specter production. Cheers, Hari, RNB

[@ralphcordon5688]

I made a comment further up on the matter. No effort was done to embellish the arrangement. That should have been mainly Paul's task IMO. He didn't care enough on this one.

It sure likes that to me as well. The suggestions Paul did make seemed almost phoned in. There is an unusually lazy vibe about Paul's entire approach to Across The Universe.

[@beatler]

Ahhh, this song. The one (or should I say the one of many) that John was never satisfied with how it was recorded, although he said it's one of his best lyrics. It was intended to be a single at the beginning of 68, but Lady Madonna won the honor to be A side. The recording of the song began in February 68, along with Lady Madonna, Hey Bulldog and the vocals of The Inner Light (weirdly, both Lennon's songs, ATU and HB, were relegated and almost forgotten before being used in "less important" projects, even though both of them are great tracks). The backing track is guitars, percussion, tambura, and a guitar through a wah wah pedal. Not convinced with the song, John said he wanted two female voices, but NOW!, and Paul said "well, there are always girls outside" (dialogue imagined by me, real product may differ). So (imagine this!!!!) Paul went out of Abbey Road, where there were always fans waiting for them, and asked if anyone could sing high pitch. So Lizzie Bravo, from Brazil, and Gayleen Pease (they were just seventeen... you know what I mean, and the way they look... well, was way beyond compare) got to get into Studio Two at Abbey Road and record with them. Apparently Lennon was not happy with the result, so the song was forgotten (or not) until 1969, when it appeared in a charity album called No One's Gonna Change Our World. The charity was about wild life, so it was decided to stitch bird sounds at the beginning (and a brief appearing at the end) and the whole song was sped up, making it sound brighter and John's voice younger (some say even chipmunkier). You can hear this version in the official Past Masters album (you can hear the girls voices when John sings "nothing's gonna change my world"). Also at the beginning of 69 they started the Get Back project (that was going to end in the Let It Be album/movie in 1970). Perhaps because of the release of the wild life version, The Beatles can be seen in the LIB movie doing some takes of Across the Universe, so it was later decided to include it in the Let It Be album, although the boys never recorded it properly for it, and they couldn't be bothered with the task of recording it (the same thing happened with I Me Mine, it appears in the movie so they included it in the album, but at least it got recorded properly for the occasion!). So, Phil Spector took the 1968 tape of Across the Universe, muted some of the tracks (the girls, Paul and George's "aaaah"s, etc) and added a full choir and strings. Besides he SLOWED DOWN the song's speed, thats why it sounds darker and almost muddy. But the take is exactly the same as the wild life version.

Tomorrow Never Knows, Within Without You , I am the Walrus...all part of their psychedelic/religious mind expanding phase. All wonderful in their own way. Lucy on the Sky with Diamonds will make you feel floaty for sure.

George Harrison said at the height of the BEATLES " ALL THINGS MUST PASS" this was written when the Beatles were are their height of fame, it felt as if they were so influential like they would never fade away, but they have all but passed.

Some people get sad when they think about how the Beatles broke up near the peak of their stardom. The real miracle is that four people as talented as them all found each other and stayed together as long as they did. Any one of them could’ve carried a band and they all came together to create the most influential music group in the past century. Geniuses.
