LYRICS
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Nobody ever loved me like she does
Oh, she does, yeah, she does
And if somebody loved me like she do me
Oh, she do me, yes, she does
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me down
I'm in love for the first time
Don't you know it's gonna last
It's a love that lasts forever
It's a love that had no past
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down, don't let me down
And from the first time that she really done me
Oh, she done me, she done me good
I guess nobody ever really done me
Oh, she done me, she done me good
Don't let me down, don't let me down
Don't let me down

Great music will always withstand the tests of time.

[@natural1952]

My thoughts exactly

[@watsonunlimitedmusic]

If you're not familiar already - check out the Marcia Griffiths version. It was one of her solo hits before singing harmonies with Bob Marley & The Wailers.

[@brcarter1111]

Dude absolutely crushed that keyboard solo in the best possible way. Well done LSD!

[@ijeff2005]

I don't think I've ever heard them do a bad cover and this is no exception. Also, that's a pretty cool John Lennon look Rachael has for this clip! Then again, EVERYTHING looks good on Rachael.

[@BombshellCelluloid]

Mike is seriously nailing that Ringo impersonation.

[@frankzayas3103]

Not a bad Billy Preston either.

I like the Paul too. Although admittedly the Comedy Fake Beard does a lot of the work.

This song was written by Paul and John for Phoebe Snow. Many people believe her version is the definitive version. Sadly she passed on a few years ago. Look it up.

[@rickgeller6043]

Robert Davidson Phoebe Snow didn’t release her first album until 1974. Four years after the Beatles break up. And you want us to believe Lennon & McCartney wrote Don’t Let Me Down for her?

[@robertdavidson8289]

This girl’s voice!!! Their harmonies! Love these guys!

[@bunnysemmler2006]

I've been listening to LSD for some time but just stumbled on to this today. When I saw what they were covering and that it was on a rooftop, the first thing that popped into my head was, "This better be DAMN good to even attempt covering this iconic version." WOW, I was not disappointed. In fact, I was IMPRESSED. And FINALLY, Billy Preston got the camera coverage he deserved on this song!! (I always thought the song would have been great without Billy Preston's keyboard, but his performance with the Beatles on this song raised it to a MUCH higher level.)

[@nozecone]

Agreed all 'round!

[@garyjackson3531]

Billy Preston was essentially the 5th Beatle. He added a lot to the band.

Absolutely brilliant. Paul and Ringo on the top of their form.

[@paulg9038]

Absolutely brilliant. I used to work round the corner from the 'real' rooftop. Not when the fab four played this song unfortunately - but the vibe still hung in the air. Great bass sound.

[@m.a.c.8366]

@Michael Bruchas- Don’t feel bad “old man.” I instantly sent this song to my brother; and explained the cardboard cutout. And I said, “I think that somebody else is missing too.” Then I remembered the fake beard with the Hofner bass! It wasn’t until I was done sending my message that I was able to look back at the vid and see that there’s even more things that Bridgette can make look easy. Rachael, as always, kills it. But kudos to everybody. They ALL nailed it. Somewhere all the BeaTles are smiling!
