Guys, I can’t take this, you need to win, Yanks lost and gave you a gift today.

You are listening too . .
The last Beatles song, and album I will analyze, Get Back. A song written by McCartney and performed by the Beatles with Billy Preston on keyboards.  It is the closing track of the album Let It Be.  The last song, on the last album before their break up.  It was a number one single and the only single that credited another artist but themselves (Billy Preston).  It was also the first US released single The Beatles ever done in stereo. 

One of the unusual natures of the song is it is the only song they recorded that had been documented from the beginning offhand riff, to the final recording.  Much of it is available on illegal bootlegs.  The song melody developed out of a jam session and over the next 15 minutes McCartney introduced the chorus “Get Back to Where You Once Belonged” which was lifted from a Harrison project Sour Milk Sea, which had the line “Get Back to the Place You Should Be”.  The song is very stylized blues, and has become a trademark song of the Beatles.

The song developed slowly, from a nonsense song, to a political statement, to almost a protest song about racism.  Many of these points were dropped in the final recording.  The actually recording takes pieces of studio versions, and verses from the three rooftop versions they did of the song (the most famous performance of their rooftop concert).  The Let It Beversion has chatter additions by Spector to make it seem the recording is live.   This made the album version and the single version seem like different songs.

The lyrics to the song are interesting.  There are two official verses, and intro, outro, and several refrains.  The lyrics themselves can be taken with a grain of salt, but first verse has to do with Linda McCartney.  Several verses were added in multiple takes of the song some protest like:

Meanwhile back at home there’s nineteen Pakistanis,
Living in a council flat
Candidate for Labour tells them what the plan is,
Then he tells them where its at

Other’s silly:

Sweet Loretta Fart she thought she was a cleaner,
but she was a frying pan

The structure of the melody makes it fairly easy to add your own lyrics.  The quip from Lennon at the end, is from the rooftop concert, and goes back to the early days trying out for record companies.

Now while this will be the last song I analyze, I am going to play a few off of Love, in the next week.

Thanks for the scare
So putting my son to bed tonight . . . “Daddy, Mem’s (my Memere/Grandmother) house caught on fire today”.  So I am like, your kidding.  No he’s serious.  Called my mother, evidently Memere self cleaned the oven, and some of the stuff in there caught fire.  Luckily Memere is fairly spry for her age, called 911, got half the Fairhaven Fire Dept there, who quickly got the fire out.  Luckily the oven was locked for the self cleaning mode, so the fire really had nowhere to go, the FFD got it out quickly with little to now damage, and Memere is OK.

So let’s see.
Bonds hit two today, and is three away for break Aaron’s record.  Quandary, he don’t return home to the friendly confines of San Fran for 4 more games . . so who wants to bet he sits?
