The Beatles "She Loves You" Lesson by Mike Pachelli

[@michaelcantwell6928]

I’m almost 70, watched the Beatles on Ed Sullivan, been playing guitar since 1966 and may finally learn this song. Thanks, Mike

[@Berniewahlbrinck]

Time for you to drop out of art school and start a band sonny!

[@keithgeorge2541]

Yeah… I’m 70… took lessons starting at age 8 till 14. Got in my first band at 12. Saw the lads on Ed Sullivan too. Changed my life as I’m sure it did a lot of young guys at that time!

Makes you appreciate the British Invasion and realize how many of those bands disappeared what is still remembered. Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Herman's Hermits and the Dave Clark Five the die quickly in the States yet had a world wide market.

[@thomasschmitt699]

Im 70, I was a Beatles Fan from the beginning and i am still a Beatles fan an enjoy very much to play Beatles songs in guitar classic style with the help of the great lessons of Mike

[@Мадамвсережках]

I'm 66. And I've lived with their music all my life. I played, I play and I sing their songs. But I've never thought about what the genius of their music is. Melodicity is the beauty of the sound, undoubtedly. But only now I understand that the main thing is in the little things, the combination of little things in their beautiful music. They are in each of their songs, little things that add a certain charm, beauty of sound. This is their genius.

[@peteradamakakis4682]

The reason I play guitar is George Harrison. The master of taste and exactky what's needed. We could all wax lyrical on the the genius of John and Paul. But their's would be a lesser accomplishment without the subtle grandeour of George to bring out the the brilliance of The Beatles. Thank you Mike for articulating the 'quite one's' contribution the the Beatles' overall excellence.

I guess I'm a little late to the party but I just discovered this channel and it is amazing. Like others have said, most Beatle lessons on KZbin are simplified versions and it is only when you see it correctly displayed with all the different parts that you understand how genius the fab four were. And I like how you put it all together at the end and play these songs and you do it very very well. Thank you, Mike! Share the music and share the joy...

[@MPfrance]

KBoege - You are most welcome and yeah -those young lads were brilliant the way they'd put a song together. Each part fits together perfectly! You have a good ear for noticing that.

Was not really my favorite Beatles song but, jeez, quite rich in texture. Like most Beatles' songs, there are so many subtle parts to the whole. 60 yrs later and I'm still discovering the Beatles!

[@gdholmfirth]

Most excellent. My favorite Beatle song to play. If you can't have fun playing this one, what CAN you have fun playing? Jut think, when this ws released, it was not good enough to play on American radios. All that changed of course after"I Want to Hold Your Hand". No wonder the Beatles had all top 5 songs in the charts and 7 of the top 10 at one time in 1964. Even a simple song such as this one needs your insight to break it down into what went into it. The Beatles understood harmony. Not just vocal harmony, but instrument harmony. That, and being anxious to change and experiment, was why they were so much better than everyone else. Thank you for doing this

Great to hear the Beatles songs played properly. So many people including musicians say Beatles songs are easy, they are only easy if you don´t play them correct with the right chord structure and licks and then they sound crap.

[@cbensonis]

That they sound easy is the genius of them.

The reason I graduated as a composer is these Fab Four! I guess, all of us remember freezing in the floor, listening to those sounds of incredible, almost alien sort of freedom, and this astonishing, if you please, "child-alike" joy, so easily understood by a kid, as it happened with me back there in eighties and, perhaps, still happening with our brothers and sisters around the globe this very moment.

Such cool, clever writing, playing and singing- it is unbelievable that this actually ever happened in human history. I rank the Beatles right up there with Tesla, Einstein and Edison for pure brilliance.

I don't play guitar but I was mesmerised by your teaching and explanation. Then you put it all together at the end perfectly. We'll never see the like of The Beatles again but you did this wonderful song justice. Thank you so much!

Yeah as a 61 year old who wishes that he had significant guitar talent, and envies those that do, I can say that the Beatles songs are not at all simple. They were fairly complex arrangements. And to this day, i still marvel at all of the wonder of creative stuff they did. If you listen, they were INVENTING so much interesting stuff that NOBODY else had the guts to try. Their producer, George Martin, is often considered the 5th Beatle because of his contributions to their music. Like them or dislike them, anybody who dismisses their work just simply doesn’t know what they are talking about.

[@anEyePhil]

Newcastle, New South Wales in Australia, 1964. For years I had been enjoying all the songs of the 50s and early 60s from my mother's radio. These included Buddy Holly, the Everly Brothers, Sheb Woolly (Purple People Eater), Rolf Harris and skiffle (My old man's a dustman). Then one morning in April 1964 (I was 14 years old), I hear something totally different and spell-binding, the Beatles "She Loves You". I was immediately obsessed with the song and the group. I will never forget that morning. I didn't realise it was the same group that I had heard play their instrumental "Cry for a Shadow" and backing Tony Sheridan in "My Bonnie" years before. I had to buy a guitar and learned more from analysing Beatles' song chords than from anything or anyone else. Thanks for this Mike, it means a hell of a lot to an ageing Boomer in Australia. They visited Australia in 1964. I missed the shows but my wife saw them in Sydney. There is some excellent video from these concerts, I hope it is still on KZbin. How lucky was I to live through the 1960s? Here is some good video of She Loves You from the Aus tour in 1964.

Although there are countless other candidates, this might be my favorite Beatles song, and Mike has only amplified that here (especially George's part on the second "yeah, yeah yeah" at the end). HOWEVER... Let us not overlook Ringo's contribution here. The opening fill ignites the song, and the accents after each "yeah, yeah, yeah" add an edge that would have left the song flat without them.

[@eugenemodzelewski6471]

Mike you did it again, right on with interesting music info on the songs of the BeaTles. She Loves You i would say is a very explosive and powerful song at that time and being about 14 when i heard this song was soooo different than anything at that time and probably blew away the competition of that time. Steve Lawrence , Go Away Little Girl I believe came out about that time very tame, nice but when She Loves You came out that was the end of the old school singing and writing. The Fab four sure made a mark in music and GLAD you can explain the innards of there music which i enjoy. Their music will live on forever as it should for there musical genius of four young lads that were far more talented than most bands at the time. The 60s of my life were the greatest growing up and listening to not only the BeaTles but the English invasion. I can only dream of playing half decent guitar but watching you explain there music makes me hungry to try better. Your awesome, keep up with the Fab Four ! South of France? You an engineer in music there? Maybe next time give us all some insight of what you do,married, children and what got you started in guitar etc. Thanks again

[@peterintoronto6472]

Has been called the single greatest rockandroll song, and I agree. It is hard to recapture the sheer ecstasy I remember as a 13 year old when I heard it first. Except every time I hear it. Everything people say about it being life changing is true for those of that age. Listening to you dissect it, I am stunned by the George Harrison licks -- never thought about the details at all, and yet there they are -- but maybe the core of the song is the immense driving rhythm you mention. Tip of the hat to Ringo.

[@theblytonian3906]
