juantailor - The French horn solo was by Alan Civil, a British horn player described by recording engineer Geoff Emerick as the "best horn player in London". During the session, McCartney pushed Civil to play a note that was beyond the usual range of the instrument. Civil said that the song was "recorded in rather bad musical style, in that it was 'in the cracks', neither B-flat nor B-major, which posed a certain difficulty in tuning the instrument".

As much as I love this song, the mesmeric thing about this video is the belated arrival of the bearded, balding, bespectacled French horn player, his absolutely unhurried extraction of the instrument from its case (as MacCartney sings, 'She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry' - it's as if the horn player is illustrating the lyric), and the fact he's ready and so focused and calm when his solo is due. He then plays it with perfect accuracy and aplomb. It's comical - and delicious.

When I was a kid, it was just another Beatle song. It is a heart-breaking song, very powerful. "Your day breaks" could be a double-entendre, as your mind aches the minute you wake up-daybreak- or everytime you see she no longer needs you, your day breaks.

@JamesPaulMcCartney-ek1uwThanks for your continuous love, care and support towards me. Where do you live? @JamesPaulMcCartney-ek1uw I grew up in a little town near Cincinnati, Ohio, called Loveland. I saw you and the lads back on Sun. Aug. 21, 1966 at Crosley Field ballpark. You may recall, it poured rain the night before and you had to lay over in Cincy and do the concert about noon the following day. Ah, the good old days! Thank you for your kind reply. I was taken aback! All the best, Paul!

These McCartney songs aren't just pop songs, they're world class compositions. Macca has such a love for classical music first heard in Yesterday, then Eleanor Rigby. Stunning arrangements on this track too, and also Here There and Everywhere. I think Eleanor Rigby is truly one of the very best songs ever written, and then we have the brilliant string section on She's Leaving Home. Where do you stop with this man? Brilliant video. Thanks for sharing.
@-amitkalderon12257 жыл бұрын
I completely agree with everything you said. Eleanor rigby is 4th in my favorite beatles songs and here, there and everywhere is my favorite. He got the love for classical music from George Martin, and while 3 other beatles liked it, he explored it, and in "a day in the life", the greatest song of all time, the crecendo was his idea and he helped George Martin conduct the 41 people who played the classical instruments. Best musician of all time and a genius of melody.

"For No One" Your day breaks, Your mind aches, You find that all her words of kindness linger on When she no longer needs you She wakes up, She makes up, She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry She no longer needs you And in her eyes you see nothing, No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one, A love that should have lasted years You want her, You need her, And yet you don't believe her when she says her love is dead You think she needs you And in her eyes you see nothing No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one, A love that should have lasted years You stay home, She goes out, She says that long ago she knew someone, but no ne's gone She doesn't need him Your day breaks, Your mind aches, There will be times when all the things you said will fill your head You won't forget her And in her eyes you see nothing No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one, A love that should have lasted years
