(*Shyly*) Hi, I’m new here. 🙂
She Loves You is part of my childhood. It was the first Beatles song I ever heard. It was the early ’80s. I think I was about 3. It was actually the Chipmunks version of it that must have been playing on some kids’ radio show or other. Anyway, when I heard it I must have decided I wanted to hear the “real version”, and discovered the Beatles soon after. I haven’t looked back. It’s still one of my favorite songs of all time to this day.

That was the time I saw them and John lennon sang to.me because I refused to go out with him.
He sang Please please me, in front ofeveryone.

There is no better Beatlemania moment than watching “the blonde girl” weeping for Paul during the TV show scene while the Beatles sing She Loves You in Hard Days Night

I always thought that the narrator was a close friend of the girl and he was trying to help her by reaching out to his pal, sort of like a mediator.

I got this 45 in 1963. I played She Loves You more than 1000 times and I’ll get you 750. That was just the first month. My mother and father couldn’t get me out the the basement. I’m some kind of repetitive listener. I was 6 years old. Now I’m 61 and still do the same. I’m still a Beatles fanatic. Went to Liverpool a few years ago. What a feeling stepping into places the Beatles stood.

This is to reduce sibilance on the recording, before there were de-essers. You hear it all over their vocals – doing a th instead of ss sound. John is especially noticeable on Across the Univerth and Yer Blueth (coincidentally when he sings ‘I am of the univerth’).

It is not true that Vee Jay declined to release “She Loves You”. It was noted in a Bruce Spizer book that the song wasn’t offered to them since Vee Jay wasn’t making royalty payments.

Yep, Paar was presenting the film as “look at this silliness Britain is going crazy over”. After Feb. 1964, he would claim to whoever would listen that HE had the Beatles on his show before Sullivan did.
Odd man, Paar.

Not true. In Detroit, I definitely heard “…Loving”. “…Standing There”, “She Loves You” on the radio before the Feb. 9, 1964 Ed Sullivan Show.

I heard this for the first time as a six-year-old —-and hated it! I still do to this day, one of the very few Beatles tunes that I will bypass or turn off when it comes on. It’s loved by many, iconic, and all that, but I truly despise it and don’t really know why, except I always found that “yeah, yeah, yeah” stuff to be grating to my ears. Oh, well….

I was listening to it again today and as usual, just blown away by Ringo’s drumming. Great drum fills, switches rhythms at times but never loses the beat. In their early works, his drumming really drove their songs.

Can someone help me out? In the song, She loves you” I would swear I either heard, or read somewhere, that the second “She loves you” was really, “She’d love to”. Not in the first verse, but the next two, and not in every edition of the song, just the later ones . I understand that is what is sung at the end of “All you need is love” but I’m strictly talking about the song “She loves you”.
Thanks

Although I love Paul, that’s not true. John was the dominant singer of the Beatles especially in the early days. Did you see the Shea Stadium show???? John lead sang on 7 of the twelve tracks with Paul singing 3 and the other two with one each.

I always understood that it wasn’t the Turk’s Head hotel, but the Imperial Hotel, in Newcastle.

Another commenter suggested that some of the ‘she loves you’s are actually ‘she loved you’s. I actually think they sing ‘She love to’ or ‘She’d love to’ – it wouldn’t be unlike them to sneak something cheeky in like that. Listening to the version from the 1964 Melbourne concert, they very clearly sing ‘She loves you yeah yeah yeah, she love to yeah yeah yeah’ in the first chorus.

I remember Jack Paar sending The Beatles up as a gag, with him making derogatory comments about their hair and the sate of British music. When the camera turned to Ringo, really bashing away and totally involved, Paar said , “Oh, look at this one!” A little background to the story, Jack Paar and Ed Sullivan were involved in a personalities war which spilled over onto their live broadcasts. Paar went to work on The Beatles because Sullivan had engaged them for a coming performance.

I am sorry but your dad is wrong. At the time of the first Ed Sullivan show All My Loving had yet to be played on the radio. At that time IWTHYH was the only Beatles song heard on the radio.
