Title: The Beatles Survivor #3 Winner: IF I FELL
Post by: pixletwin on November 17, 2016, 02:28:39 PM
Here we go. Beatlemania is now in full swing.

Quote
The title of the album was the accidental creation of drummer Ringo Starr.[5] According to Lennon in a 1980 interview with Playboy magazine: "I was going home in the car and Dick Lester [director of the movie] suggested the title, 'Hard Day's Night' from something Ringo had said. I had used it in 'In His Own Write', but it was an off-the-cuff remark by Ringo. You know, one of those malapropisms. A Ringo-ism, where he said it not to be funny ... just said it. So Dick Lester said, 'We are going to use that title.'"

Per the usual, vote for your LEAST FAVORITE TRACK!!!

Tally on the November 19.

A Hard Day's Night
I Should Have Known Better
If I Fell
I'm Happy Just To Dance With You
And I Love Her
Tell Me Why
Can't Buy Me Love
Anytime  At All
I'll  Cry Instead
Things We Said Today
When I Get  Home
You Can't Do That
I'll Be Back

Hands down. Easy first vote for me. Although it's a Lennon/McCartney song, "I'm Happy Just To Dance With You" is about as awful as a LenMac song could get.

VOTE VOTE VOTE

Voting tracks off A Hard Day's Night is going to be like chopping off body parts, lol.

I'm Happy Just to Dance With You is the only no-brainer for sure.

I have two that are about tied for least good. I'll choose Happy Just to Dance With You because it seems like the friendly thing to do.

2Emily: what's the other?
2SCaroline Z: then question is what? bust? toes? In any case, read this running gag million times. Every time was boring.

I like "I'm happy". It's very charming vocal. I think even non-George fans could like it.
My least favorite is "Anytime at all".

That is some backwards thinking. "Anytime At All" is the best song.  :lol

Come on.

"Before this dance is thu
I think I'll love you too.
I'm so happy when you dance with me!"

Those are some of the most banal lyrics John Lennon ever wrote.

"I don't wanna squeeze or hold you hand.
if it's funny try and understand.
There is really nothing I would rather do.
I've discovered I'm in love you."

Guuuuh.

I don't like songs for lyrics. I like its melody & like I said, George's charming vocal - I now say it 3rd time ::) . It weirds me out when people 1st pay attention to lyrics in song, then the rest. & you'd think the music & vocals is most important thing in any song.

"Anytime at all" I don't like at all. It goes back when I used to be huge Beatles fan, around 2010.

Even the melody is banal. It noodles around in a very limited range and never goes anywhere but that it's obvious. Just my opinion of course.

Hmm I don't know what to vote for!

In general, the songs on the 2nd half of the album are weaker than the ones on the 1st half, so I'll choose a semi-random 2nd half song: Things We Said Today. I think I'll vote for it only because it reminds me of the Hollies song "Bus Stop" ... which isn't a bad song, mind you, but I gotta come up with a reason to vote for something, and I guess choosing a song that sounds like another song is as good a reason as any!

Well I'm still pretty new here so I hope you'll forgive me for what I see now could be an old and boring joke. Having said that, in answer to your question, losing I'm Just Happy to Dance With You is the equivalent of losing a fingernail, to pick a random "I can live without it" body part.

The wonderful thing about music, or any art form for that matter, is that the listener/observer gets to take what they want from it and enjoy it on whatever level is most pleasing to them. If lyrics are the most important thing to someone, that is entirely valid. Just as someone not caring for lyrics is also valid.

Would have to go with Anytime at All.
If pressed for time and can't listen to the whole album, this would be one I skip over.

Post by: RangeRoverA1 on November 17, 2016, 05:28:23 PM
NOLA, you're pal. Emily, you're half-pal.

SCaroline Z, it's not about you, I just don't like when people say this "chopping off" thing. It's just game. You can go listen to album start finish, the songs wouldn't magically disappear.

Re music vs. lyrics, we'll agree to disagree. I've yet to see smb. who will say the lyrics is what they care for. Usually they praise them in conjunction with melody/arrangement/vocals. In a song, by its very definition, you can't seriously say that lyrics is most important thing there. Then just as well read the poem. Check the lyrics site etc.

pixletwin, your opinion. To me "To Dance with you" is very joyful. "Anytime" is downer.


Title: Re: The Beatles Survivor #3: A Hard Days Night
Post by: Rocky Raccoon on November 17, 2016, 07:50:03 PM
"Anytime At All" which I've always thought was too similar to "When I Get Home" which is also one of the weaker tracks on the album (that will be my next choice to go).

This first round was pretty hotly contested. And it was close!

1 vote for When I Get Home, Things We Said Today, Can't Buy Me Love, and You Can't Do That. Four votes for Anytime At All. (Still boggles my mind that anyone would call that a "downer". It's someone saying to another that no matter what happens I will always be there for you. Quite inspiring if you ask me!) In the end, 5 smilers just couldn't be happy Just To Dance With You.

Round#1 I'm Happy Just To Dance With You November 19

When I Get Home is my pick for this round. I never liked Lennon's "WOAHOOWOA IIIIIIIIII" vocal. It's slightly embarrassing.

I went to great lengths to say that - read again - I don't care about lyrics. I referred, obviously, to music (duh!). "Anytime at all", to me, not you or anybody else here, doesn't sound "happy-go-lucky". It isn't joyful. Like "I'm happy just to dance". Understood?

"Anytime at all" till it gets buzzed off.

I can't hear how the music is a downer either. it's full of positive energy. I guess it's because it starts in a minor key.  But it is consistently uplifted and emphasized to the relative major. Musically it mirrors the lyrics. Brilliant of Lennon to do that. Seems weird to write off a song because it contains one minor chord. Anyways, I detect that you are getting irritated. If that is the case, I apologize. I just enjoy discussing these songs and the difference in opinions.

Would have to go with Anytime at All. Don't think it's a "downer" but musically it's not as interesting as the others.
(If it had been on the previous album I would have considered it one of the best. But AHDN is an album full of great songs, and this is a good song)

I am generally annoyed when I have to repeat myself when I state black & white this & that, get misquoted etc. Everybody would. Like you, I enjoy discussing difference in opinions. Petula Clark's hit "Downtown" is in major. Yet the way I perceive it is sad song. "Anytime at all", likewise, doesn't sound, to me, joyful. Ditto John's lead. My opinion is qualified & educated as I listen to Beatles since 2010. To these ears, it's been downer. I stand by it.

AHDN was definitely a leap forward and competition on this album is much steeper.

For me it was actually a toss up between Anytime At All and I'll Cry Instead. I like both songs equally, but I went with the one that's already getting more votes, to let I'll Cry Instead hang on another week, maybe :)

What is surprising is that people defended "Anytime at all" against "I'm happy just to dance with you" when now they buzz off Beatles' best songs "Things we said today". Don't people like Paul's songs? Keep in mind that John isn't the best in the band. There wasn't the best, in fact. Beatles wouldn't be Beatles if John, Paul, George & Ringo didn't meet. Paul's songs & ideas matter as much as John's. He's not amateur to John's "genius". John would agree with it.

You Can't Do That.
Don't care for the cowbell which gets annoying after a while.
Also not one of John's finest moments lyrics-wise.

Here we go. Beatlemania is now in full swing.

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e6/HardDayUK.jpg)

Quote
The title of the album was the accidental creation of drummer Ringo Starr.[5] According to Lennon in a 1980 interview with Playboy magazine: "I was going home in the car and Dick Lester [director of the movie] suggested the title, 'Hard Day's Night' from something Ringo had said. I had used it in 'In His Own Write', but it was an off-the-cuff remark by Ringo. You know, one of those malapropisms. A Ringo-ism, where he said it not to be funny ... just said it. So Dick Lester said, 'We are going to use that title.'"

Not a very close round at all. (13 votes)

Can't Buy enough votes to save this song. 6 smilers have greater love elsewhere. (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/survivor.gif)

Per the usual, vote for your LEAST FAVORITE TRACK!!!

This is team album. Ringo's drumming is as best as usual. John flourished here. Paul's been consistently jolly good. Real talent. George's guitar skills showed yet again that nobody in the band could be as good at it as him. John is really bad guitarist, even huge John fans say it,  for example the moderator in the Russian Beatles site, musician himself & guitar collector. Paul is good bass player but the lead is competent but not up to George's level.

What are you on about? Where'd you get 6 votes? There's 4 votes for "You can't do that", it should be the Round 5.

Well, "You Can't Do That" only won the popular vote while "Can't Buy Me Love" won the electoral.

But yeah, Pixletwin might have screwed that one up. ;)

And also, my vote still goes to "Tell Me Why".

"Tell Me Why" is one of the best tracks on the album.

I understand what happened. When I tally I write the titles as one word. I combined You CANT Do That and CANT Buy Me Love as one song.

I think the game has moved far enough along that I am not going to go back unless you guys want a do over. I'm open either way.

Considering the votes for both "Can't" songs, odds are that the losing "Can't" song might've been the next castaway anyways.

As I said, can't do anything with it.  Let's just move on.  "You Can't Do That" has enough votes in this new round, that it would be the next to go anyway.

Now.  More Badfinger:  https://youtu.be/ZFkziXb-678  
or something like that... oh wait, you can't do that.
Not according to some people...

It's all https://youtu.be/pwpZLWRfu8I  anyway.

I wrote the code down, so one more before I take off to do the shopping:

How I long for the simpler times of the mid-sixties.  Mornings when the most pressing thing to think about was which record to play first.

What happened?  Best not to worry about the small stuff.  I have my memories.  Can't take that away from me.

I can do what I can to save a treasured song.  In the spirit of moving along...

What I said the last time.  "And I Love Her"  Lots of emotion in that song, but still the weakest of what's left.

Slow down and enjoy the Christmas season.  Went out and got my tree yesterday.  Got a lot of decorating to do today.
and a big snow heading my way tomorrow.  yes.

An early Christmas wish come true!  "When I Get Home" was voted off in the third round.  Or, are you reading from the wrong list?  So many of these songs are so great it's hard to believe they have been offed.
Gah, you're right! I did this before coffee this morning... LOL

Changing my vote to Tell Me Why.

Ouch!  Funny what a cup of coffee will do.  Save the Rockers!

Usually I'd agree, but the ballads are of such a higher caliber on this album IMO

Rei,  That may be so, but a song as iconic as "Hard Day's Night" should have made it to the final.  Not my favorite song on the album, that's still here - for now.

I dunno, just because a track is iconic doesn't mean it's guaranteed a finals spot. I mean, Yellow Submarine's iconic, but I wouldn't put money on it getting anywhere near the Revolver finals

Here we go. Beatlemania is now in full swing.

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e6/HardDayUK.jpg)

Quote
The title of the album was the accidental creation of drummer Ringo Starr.[5] According to Lennon in a 1980 interview with Playboy magazine: "I was going home in the car and Dick Lester [director of the movie] suggested the title, 'Hard Day's Night' from something Ringo had said. I had used it in 'In His Own Write', but it was an off-the-cuff remark by Ringo. You know, one of those malapropisms. A Ringo-ism, where he said it not to be funny ... just said it. So Dick Lester said, 'We are going to use that title.'"

This round was pretty smooth with a strong slant. (14 votes)
7 Smilers are asking Why.  Perhaps this round has given them an answer?  (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/survivor.gif)

I Should Have Known Better
If I Fell

Round#1 I'm Happy Just To Dance With You November 19

I wanted "And I Love Her" out last round, so obviously not that one.

I love "Should Have Known Better" but it pales to my ultimate pick for Survivor.

If I Fell.

The chords, the production, the performance. All top notch Lennon/Beatles.

RR, I think it's best to wait until after the final round before posting your rankings. It's more suspenseful if we don't know how you're going to vote for the next album.

Since I was stuck voting for Things We Said Today for 8 rounds, I'd like to post my rankings of A Hard Day's Night.

1. If I Fell
2. I Should Have Known Better
3. I'll Be Back
4. Tell Me Why
5. And I Love Her
6. You Can't Do That
7. A Hard Day's Night
8. When I Get Home
9. Can't Buy Me Love
10. Any Time At All
11. I'll Cry Instead

12. Things We Said Today
13. I'm Happy Just To Dance With You

Incredible album!
