REACTING TO THE BEATLES’ PAST MASTERS | VOLUME 1: SIDE 1 | Reaction, party & *tribute*

Hi for those of you who have seen my post, I filmed this video just days before I lost my father on Thursday, October 7, 2021 at the young age of 63. He was a healthy man, actually the healthiest person I knew. His religion was exercise and he was just always smiling. My father, James Michael Shannon Jr., was an extremely special human being and I know it may seem that I have a great bias but it really could not be more true. During my lifetime, I saw the way he cared about people and the way he treated others. Kindness was important to him but it didn’t stop there, he went above and beyond for every person, he always offered a smile, a sweet word of strength and help to whomever needed it. He often placed himself in harms way to protect others and gave to others when he had nothing himself. He was so quick to make a new friend and would embrace people with so much warmth. I just learned there was a time when he was taking home a new award or trophy for everyday for saving individuals’ lives but I never saw that, he never even spoke of it because he NEVER wanted the CREDIT. He wanted to make the world a better place so he even took young recruits under his wing and tried to show them the right way and I have just had the privilege of meet a few wonderful people he had an effect on. One thing I kept hearing was how beautiful his smile was and how important it was that everyone be treated equally no matter their gender, race, religion or sexual orientation. He just valued people (and our late Cubby).
Being the daughter of such a selfless man allowed for me to have the most wonderful childhood and at the age of 23 he made sure to continue to make me feel like his little baby girl. He would call me on the phone from work to help me with my homework and we would even meet up at Taco Bell during his lunch or dinner breaks. Not only was I lucky for his heart, but his mind… my god. He was so brilliant, he was the expert on everything or at least he would make it seem like it. LOL. He just had a curious brain and learning more about the world constantly was so important to him. And apparently every woman had eyes for him but he only had eyes for mi mama.
It’s still so new to me, a surprise, a shock, a devastation. I’m angry. I’m mortified. I’m destroyed. I’m happy he can finally rest because he never took a rest for himself. I keep waiting for his call or a text or an email. I don’t think I will ever be happy the same way again. I know time heals but this is a scar for life, daddy was my best friend.
I used to want to live forever, dreams change.
I love you deeply and permanently daddy,
(Yes, I will take a lechita before bed- cold and chocolate please)

[@CrystalShannon4]

The Beatles are like magical musical therapists. Listening to the music that I know my dad loved so much helps me to feel closer to him.

[@JedHead77]

@@CrystalShannon4 That helps alot. Whenever I hear music that my parents loved (or would have loved), it makes me miss them more, but also keeps them always with me.

[@johannesvalterdivizzini1523]

I was there, way back when---a little boy when they exploded onto the US music scene. Seeing you getting so much listening and so deeply understanding them, I am again delighted to see the healing and goodness they embody.

The Beatles were master of everything, including handclaps

[@polytheneprentiss1534]

IKR?! Always loved the handclaps! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@JStarStar00]

"She Loves You" was the song that absolutely broke the Beatles loose worldwide. Along with "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" it was the massive hit they played on Ed Sullivan on Feb. 9, 1964. (I remember watching it as a little kid.)

[@jwb932]

Not quite true. "Please Please Me" was the first big one for the Beatles in Britain, "She Loves You" was the one that swept over Europe and made them big enough for the U.S. music industry to take notice of them, but it was "I Want to Hold Your Hand" that finally allowed them to break loose in America (the biggest music market). This was not by accident, either. Capitol Records, their record company in the U.S., had refused to release their singles and albums prior to "I Want to Hold Your Hand" (including "She Loves You") But after the success of "She Loves You" in Europe, Capitol finally jumped on board the bandwagon and released "I Want to Hold Your Hand" in the U.S. and spent money to promote it. You are, however, correct that they performed both "She Loves You" and "I Want to Hold Your Hand" on the Ed Sullivan show the first night (and also the next couple weeks). "I Want to Hold Your Hand" was number one at the time (reaching number one in the U.S. at the end of January, 1964 and remaining there throughout February). "She Loves You" was just starting to get noticed when the Beatles performed it on Sullivan, coming in at number seven the second week of February. It would move up to number three the third week of the month, number two the week after and finally overtake "I Want to Hold Your Hand" to go number one in March. Bonus fact: when they performed the first night on Ed Sullivan, another act performing included a 19 year old Davy Jones, performing with the cast of Oliver as the Artful Dodger.

[@jnagarya519]

"Please Please Me," "From Me to You," and "She Loves You," released on small labels, stiffed in the US until AFTER "I Want to Hold Your Hand" hit #1, and "The Ed Sullivan Show" appearances made the industry aware of their other recordings.

[@Findo_Gask]

'She loves you' was definitely the song that most people here in Britain associate with Beatlemania. It was not their first number one but it was their biggest hit here and the best selling single of the 1960s.

[@robertwhitehead9986]

@@Findo_Gask exactly correct.

[@jnagarya519]

[@analogblues]

I'm so happy you've returned to the Beatles videos, Crystal. But I couldn't be more sad to hear of your recent news. My deepest sympathies. FWIW, I hope you know you're making the world a more joyful, happy place with your reaction videos. My hope is that continuing to hear Beatles music in this way will help heal your pain, even if just a little bit. Finally, I totally agree about "This Boy." It's an underappreciated classic by the Fab Four. Oh, those harmonies! And John's passionate lead vocals. Get ready for even more amazing surprises on Past Masters, as their singles (and even B-sides) are some of the best work of their career. Can't wait for the next video!

[@jnagarya519]

"This Boy" was actually a "B"-side. For anyone else it would have been an "A"-side. Solid -- confident -- performance.

[@OzTwanger]

“Solid”? It is incredible

[@polytheneprentiss1534]

Yeah so many other singles could’ve been double A sides - like This Boy with I want to hold your hand, and Strawberry Fields forever with Penny Lane, Can’t Buy me love and You can’t do that, etc

So sorry to hear of your loss. Remember, he lives in your heart and through you. You honor his memory every day by how you live and carry forward his ideals.

[@thomastimlin1724]

I'll Get You...we used to sing that as kids and laugh at the line "I'll Get You in the end" as in pinch somebody's behind🤣

[@elizadennison7433]

Listening to "She Loves You" and all these others reminds me of an article a critic once wrote, I think maybe in The Times of London, where he said that Paul and John "think so simultaneously in terms of melody and harmony" that it's nearly impossible to pick out one line and say, "That's the melody." And it really is simple, if you're singing along, to switch from one line to the other, even though the harmonies are often fairly sophisticated! Like in "She Loves You," after "You think you've lost your love" in unison, either line on "well I saw her yesterday" could easily be considered "the melody." It's really remarkable.

[@jwb932]

Yes, they were disciples of the idea that there wasn't one melody line and one harmony line. There were multiple melody lines that together made harmony.

[@Wungolioth]

The big significance of the single version of Love Me Do versus the version on Please Please Me, on the album, session drummer Andy White played the drums and Ringo played the tambourine, but on the single Ringo plays the drum part and there is no tambourine(I think what you're hearing in this version must be on the high-hat cymbal, but nobody is playing a stand alone tambourine, as far as I can tell). So sorry for your loss, Crystal, your father seems like an amazing man, and I know he must be so proud of you.

[@fnjesusfreak]

@phillydisco They actually had to copy the Ringo version off an original 45.

[@PeterBuwen]

The maybe biggest reason for the brightness of their music: they were friends, they loved each others and they loved to play together. That's what you can hear in every song. Love.

[@TTM9691]

The pictures at the end broke my heart. I'm so sorry, Crystal.

[@FredGarnett]

Wonderful review Crystal! I've been listening to the Beatles since 1963 when they released Please Please Me. She Loves You was the biggest selling British single of the Sixties. Paul wrote I Wanna Hold Your Hand specifically to break the USA. In the UK it knocked She Loves You off #1. I'm really enjoying the freshness and musicality of your Beatles reviews. Thank You Girl!

[@norryonbass6574]

I love the early Beatles material. Their voices worked so well together. When I was a young kid when the songs were played on a jukebox or on the radio John Lennon’s voice was like a beacon. Those vocals just stood out so strong. I had to wait until I was older before I could buy the albums for myself.

[@TTM9691]

Your father was a great, beautiful man, and I am heartbroken for you, for him, and for everyone who knew and loved him. You are correct: this is a scar that will never go away.....and it SHOULDN'T. All that hurt is just a testament to how much you loved him, how much he was loved, and how much he is missed, and always will be. Please, don't feel you have to make any videos for us, ESPECIALLY related to this music, which I know you associate partly with him. Your anger is completely justified. He left way too soon, it's not fair and it's just a bitter pill to swallow. Feel however you need to feel, there is no right or wrong, just keep getting through each moment, moment by moment. Cry all the tears you have to, whenever you need to, punch a wall, laugh like a lunatic, whatever it is, just let it out. You are a special and very appreciated and very loved person, and it breaks all of our hearts that such pain should visit you, our new friend, our new sister. Your Dad sounds like such an amazing man, I just wish I could have shaken his hand and told him what an amazing daughter he raised. But.....I have a feeling he knew that already. I'm so sorry, Crystal. To quote a great lyric that says it all: when things go wrong, go wrong with you......it hurts me too. xxxxxxxxxxxx

[@ricknbacker5626]

Excellent analysis' Crystal. (FWIW) Love Me Do is in the key of G (G7 - C). Using the 4 (C) chord as a natural suspension that's built right in . You're spot on, From Me To You is in C. (Using a 1 - 6m - 1 - 5 - 4 - 6m - 1 - 5 - 1 for the verse) The C chord is prominent in both songs. Thank You Girl is reminiscent of some Buddy Holly chord structures. I'll Get You is a more workman like composition. The Bridge chord sequence in From Me To You returns here in I Want To Hold Your Hand. (5m7 - 1 - 4 ) Indeed, This Boy is John's homage to his Doo-Op & R&B heroes. Lastly, Brian Epstein felt the German audiences disserved special recognition for their early support of the Beatles. Most Germans bought the English versions!! I'm really looking forward to your cogent thoughts on Side 2. Best wishes, RNB

[@ricknbacker5626]

May I offer my sincere condolences Crystal, on the passing of your Father. You and your family are in my prayers, RNB

[@rickypickles5046]

As a father of a 35 year old daughter with whom I am very close, I worry about the day my life ends. No loving father wants his daughter to suffer any pain. My daughter has, and will always have my heart. A true father daughter bond is a wonderful thing. It doesn't ever end. It has a permanent place in our hearts. Be good. Do good. Spend every minute well!

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

That bridge in "From Me To You" is something Paul McCartney often talks about with pride because it was one of the first times they went into that major 7th chord. He and John really got quite chuffed after hearing that line.

[@dggydddy59]

The part that was really different at the time was when the bridge, "I've got arms...", changes everything and goes to an unheard of minor 5th on "arms". Nobody did chord changes like that in Rock n Roll at the time. I'm pretty positive that's what Paul was talking about.

[@Sweetish_Jeff_]

@@dggydddy59 Yes. It was a big step in their songwriting, for sure. John also was very proud of the guitar riff in “I Want To Hold Your Hand”, the D-C#-D-D#-E one. He was very proud of that.

What never ceases to amaze me is how The Beatles went from “Love Me Do” to “Abbey Road” in *7* years!

Some people choose to avoid the subject completely because it is too much to handle, I respect them too. As my journey through your videos continues for a week now, I can see the poem coming up. I already liked it but i already know it will make me cry when i finally watch it. As a fellow poet/lyricist/artist/producer/etc I know I am going to really feel it.
