John’s amazing vocals shredded his vocal cords for a while. Let’s not forget to give Paul kudos for his scream!

There is a reason The Beatles are so highly rated by many, many folks, including me. It is performances like this. So much energy, so much talent coming through, with a lot of passion and charisma too boot. Saw them at five or six years old on The Ed Sullivan Show, my Mom made my Dad get a new TV for the occasion, she was a BIG Beatles fan. Thanks Mom.

I heard that in concerts, the Beatles made that their last song twist and shout, because after the song John's voice was toast. Because he almost screamed his way through the song

This was performed live in front of the Queen at the annual Royal concert at the Royal Albert hall. Before they start, John speeches to the audience...." the people from the cheaper seats can clap. The rich ones just shake your jewellery ". How bold was that? With only one album realesed? Thankfully he put the audience laughing and "Twist and Shout " took the theater by storm. There's images on film of the Queens feet accompanying the beat. Irresistible 😊

Had to laugh at … “ I want to hear that again! “. That was it, exactly. Me & my friends, at their house with the 45 they’d just brought home- we played it again, and again, and again… jumping on the beds, jumping around the room, singing and wailing with it. I was age 10. Friends were brothers, aged 10, 8, and 6. A very special memory for me.

"Twist & Shout" was written in 1961 by Phil Medley & Bert Berns. It was originally recorded by the Top Notes but it didn't become a hit until it was recorded by the Isley Brothers in 1962. The Beatles version in 1963 is probably the most famous.

Another Beatles-On-Sullivan baby, 13 going on 14 in a few months. Older brother younger sister watching with Mom and Dad. Recall we had never seen anything like that in-our-lives. And the screaming. Parents had seen it with Sinatra but still a shock I'm sure. Thanks man!

@mikefetterman6782 4 ай бұрын

They recorded this song in hour 14 of the studio that day. They recorded 14 songs that day. All 14 songs were on the top 40 at the same time, including the top 5 spots for many weeks. This song was the top of John's screaming range, so it was always last in the set, so he could lose his voice at the end.

The great cover by the GOAT. This was the last song recorded on the album. The reason according to George Martin is that Lennon’s voice would just be gone after this song.

Twist and Shout was the very first 45rpm record I ever bought when I was 12 yo in 1964. On Capital records the 'B' side was There's A Place and I still have it. All worn out though. There is a video of the Beatles doing this live from the Ed Sullivan Show here on youtube if you want to check out how they looked and sounded live. The Beatles sound was described as The Mersey Beat named after the Mersey River that flowed through Liverpool, England where the Fab Four were from.

@lauraallen55 4 ай бұрын

Small point - it was known as the Mersey Beat which has a softer 's' sound. There's a song called 'Ferry Crossed the Mersey' that was famous for the Mersey Beat sound.

@plantfeeder6677 4 ай бұрын

@@lauraallen55yes I'm aware of all you said. Gerry and the Pacemakers did Ferry Cross the Mersey which I also have the single of so I'm well aware of that song. I suppose the Mersey Beat moniker could be attributed to that song but the Beatles weren't all R&R and did some softer songs to. The British invasion all took place within a year of Beatlemania so I go with the Beatles creating all of it. Oh and thanks for the 👍 love, love.

Supposedly, John had a cold during the recording of Twist and Shout. Phil Spector also worked with The Beatles. I know Spector was involved with the song The Long and Winding Road, among others. I first became a fan of them back in 1964, when I was 9, going on 10. They were a huge part of my and millions of others' lives for over 7 years.... Thanks for reacting to this great song! xo 💖🎇✨

@papercup2517 4 ай бұрын

Yes, although Phil Spector's involvement was much later in the Beatles career when he was asked if he could do something with the collection of unresolved songs and oddments they'd pretty much given up on, that became the Let It Be album - the final Beatles album to be released, although not the last to be recorded (that was Abbey Road). That's how what many people feel was Spector's overblown production got attached to Paul's lovely LAWR song, much to its author's displeasure, when he found out - he hadn't been consulted, or so the story goes, and didn't like it at all. After the band split, Spector worked with John directly on some of his solo work, since John was the one (IIRC) who liked him and had suggested(?) or invited him to try and pull the LIB album together.

The day they recorded it, they had recorded all day long, and he had a cold, so was eating cough lozenges all day, along with chain smoking, and drinking milk. It was the last song of the 12 or 14 hour day of recording music. They did it in one take as he couldn't do it a second time.

Another great cover that I actually prefer the earlier cover of, by the Isely Brothers. Maybe partly because I was dancing to it at Saturday night dances two years before the Beatles version was released. It was one of two songs I would request ever week. The other was my slow dance request, "Try Me" by James Brown (might be a good one for a reaction!).
