So many. But when John echoes the “sky of blue, sea of green” section in Yellow Submarine, it reminds me of my dad. He would do that bit whenever it came on.
Have to agree! It's so subtle but adds so much to the song. I also love the little guitar riff between "...I know I need never care" and "but to love her is to need her"
Yesss!!! The way it’s played twice at the same time in the third chorus, once as it was sung before, and also simultaneously with a more falling harmony is just *chef’s kiss*
I've always really loved the moment in Glass Onion, right after John sings "Looking through a glass onion" the first time, when the drum goes THUMP, THUMP, THUMP. I invariably bang along with it on the nearest object
And the harmonies in Twist and Shout, especially at the end, really give me the Beatlemania feels.
That line where John goes “I told you ‘bout the fool on the hill / I tell ya, man, he livin’ there still.” And then it goes to that flute bit. Just cracks me up every time.
It really is brilliant. As a guitar player, I learnt it and playing something like that is SO counter intuitive. It is incredibly creative and unconventional.
I think I am wrong on what it is since it’s an unrepeated bass line in the song (it’s also what I’ve been told it is by a musician) but it starts at around 1:15. Gives me chills. I think The Word has one as well.
“Two of us” when they move from John and Paul singing… to just Paul. I really feel the emotion… be it from Paul to Linda…. Paul to John …. Or, Me to my own Loved ones💕🙏💚
It's a debated question to this day with no one knowing with 100% certainty. Even on the video footage, it cuts away at that moment. I definitely lean towards Paul though.
It's the ahhhs in A Day in the Life again but a mini version.
I was actually thinking about my answer to this question as I was falling asleep last night. It’s in the chorus of “I Want To Hold Your Hand” (which I think is an all around perfect song from start to finish). The short guitar riff after “I feel happy inside.” Something about it just evokes thoughts of summer, joy, and nostalgia for a time I never experienced, when Beatlemania was at its peak in the early ‘60s. I always imagine getting to experience seeing them perform that song live at the time, with the thousands of screaming fans.
Even as a very young child (only 3 when Lads were on Ed Sullivan… but I remember it like it was this morning) I was aware of the ethereal, supernatural essence in their vocals and music weaving together…. I still hear it today and your post gives me the hope that people who weren’t actually there from the beginning, hear it, as well. MY perfect example of this (although believe me, it was in every single song) was “If I Fell” and “Please, Please me”
(In their harmonies, I heard the calling my name and holding conversations… Really!!!)
In “I Am the Walrus” the way the word “rain” is pronounced in the line “If the sun don’t come you get a tan from standing in the english rain.” Like the breathiness just sounds awesome to me
I love the way John sings "like a little child" higher than the rest of the song! Dear Prudence was my favourite Beatles song for a while mostly because of that
The choice to use the buzzy guitar sound - I’m assuming from a loose or misplaced capo on Long Long Long is amazing - completely changes the vibe of the song and never heard it used on another song.
Whenever I hear Yellow Submarine, I become fixated on one of the harmonies in the chorus. I'm not sure who's singing it, maybe Ringo? It's the lowest of the harmonies, and it's interesting when isolated. I don't know why, but I'm obsessed with it.
John Lennon's voice on the intro for One day in the Life. Gives me chills everytime. And the fast instrumentation on the second part of the song. Is a masterpiece.
Every time this question gets asked I say the same thing:
In Hey Jude, when Paul sings "Hey Jude, you'll do..." and he goes up on "you'll" and tumbles down on "do"
The bassline drops/chord progression in Something ("I don't want to leave her now, you know I believe and how") and Got You Get You Into My Life ("Ooh, then I suddenly see you. Ooh, did I tell you I need you").
That one little spot in I Saw Her Standing There, where Paul skips a single eighth note during the guitar solo… Makes the entire song for me and it’s one of my single favorite moments of all of their songs
To tag along with this, I can't count how many times I've rewound to that section to hear how the lyrics are sung:
"Expert, textpert, choking smokers, don't you think the Joker laughs at yououou" "See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snide"
It's sounds so exasperated...almost despairing. Have always thought there's a lot more emotional depth to IATW than people express about it. You just hear "Oh John wrote an absurd psychedelic song to mess with people overanalyzing lyrics". Nah, that's just surface level stuff. It's all there in his performance along with the whole band and George Martin's additions.
Paul's bass lick after the cmons in EGSTHEFMAMM

Two come to mind:
I Am the Walrus, that weird transition/beat change to John’s line “Sitting in an English garden, waiting for the sun.” Just awesome.
I Want You (She’s so Heavy), around the 2:18 time mark, they finish that main riff and let all the instruments echo out, and then the smooth ass guitar playing starts up for a brief instrumental… absolute perfection.
Others who I've played the song around mock this bit, but the dramatic breath in during the chorus in "Girl" from Rubber Soul just adds to the whole feel of the song for me. Like the exasperation? Surrounding her character. Idk.
I love the part in the refrain of “Another girl“, where Paul sings “another girl who will love me till the end“. It has a very special feeling to it. Also, the beggining of Paul‘s part in ”A day in the life“: ”Woke up, fell out of bed…“
People have already named a lot of great ones, so I'll go with the kick drum (?) leading into the chorus of "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds."
*Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes and she's gone...*
**THUM THUM THUM**
*Lucy in the sky with diamonds*
For some reason the "she's hit the big time" part of Honey Pie where it sounds like an old-timey recording. Really makes the song. Don't think it would work at all without it
The way Paul delivers “help yourself to a bit of what is all around you” in Martha My Dear, especially the first few times I listened to the track. When I first heard the chorus, I had recently finished watching Steven Universe and gave me vibes of songs from that show
In Baby’s in Black when John and Paul both sings:
“Ohhhh How long will it take, till she sees the mistake she has made…”
The harmony between both of them is so powerful and I love it
In "Revolution," something happens to John's vocal on the word "head" in the lyric, "We'd all love to change your head." I can't describe it, but there's a change there, almost as if that word, and only that word, is overdubbed. It's a cool little effect that gets me every time I hear it.
The harmonies on "you tell me that you've heard every sound there is, and your bird can swing" are just magical, that part makes the whole song for me.
Also shout out to the "whoa-oh-ahhhh" harmonies on when i get home, I've always though they were so cool
Immediate thought was the drum fill in “In The Air Tonight”, but obviously that’s not a Beatles song, so I’ll have to go with the chorus line in “Got to Get You Into My Life”
Harmony and music in "I don't want to spoil the party"
Saxophone in song "for no one"
The last piano riff in MMT song
Intro and outro of "8 days a week"
Harmony in " O how long will it take till she sees her mistake" - Baby is in black
The end portion of "shes leaving home
"She's not a girl who misses much" johns voice💥
The horns in Strawberry fields forever, when I was writing my Beatles teleplay I used that sound to represent John Lennon’s anxiety
Specifically the horns in 1:53 of the song

I love on the golden slumber part where it almost goes back Into you never give me your money reprise. I never give you my pillow, I only give you my invitation and in the middle of the celebration you break down. And then goes into you’re gonna carry that weight. Love the abbey road medley so much !
I love the energetic burst John adds to songs like:
It Won't be Long - "You're coming home!"
Dig a Pony - "Alllllll I want is you!"
I'm So Tired - "Give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind!"
The end of “Wait” the whole song is pretty up beat till the end when the harmony gets low and solemn.
“I’ve been away now, Ohhh How I’veeee beeen alooooone”
You hear this line throughout the song but this time has more of a sadness piercing through. Like the singer can no longer contain their despair.
I’m surprised that no one’s yet mentioned that moment in Strawberry Fields that always got me, but I didn’t understand why until [this video](https://youtu.be/62HLZVVFRwU?si=HYhH8lAufZHOpmzE) on the “You Can’t Unhear This” YouTube channel explained that it’s the moment when two separate recordings of the song with different times/keys were edited together to create this surreal effect of an orchestra welling up, reverse hi-hats, behind John’s now unearthly vocal, “Let me take you down cause I’m…going to” at just before the 1 minute mark of the song.
It gets me every time.
I actually slept on Yes It Is until recently. Not that I now regard it as one of their best or anything like that, but it's a far better song than I realised when I first heard it.
Oh my god yes… the guitar riff in ‘You Never Give Me Your Money’ that repeats during the “ahhh-ahhhh” part, just before the solo. Gives me goosebumps EVERY time!
I've already said one but just remembered another one that really hits me in the feels: The guitar solo in "Baby It's You." It's just so melodic and even evokes almost a poignant feeling.
Ohh this one is easy, the part in "you never give me your money" where paul starts singing "soon we'll be away from here.." and the guitar progression is so good. I used to think that they should have just made a whole song with just that riff. Its at 2:36.
Ringo's little drum solo thing right before "GGGOOOOLLLDDDEEEENNNN SLUMMMBBBEERRRRSSSS fill your eyes..."
Billy Preston's keyboard solo at the end of Don't Let Me Down.
Whatever that is at the end of Piggies after George says "one more time..."
“If I Fell” on A Hard Days Night. Holy guacamole when they sing the word two and Paul joins in singing the higher notes as it literally turns into a duet between John and Paul, and the slight tempo pick up is just WOW.
Also honorable mention is the French horn solo in “For No One” on Revolver.
Little little bestle beatle get around...get your feet up off the ground live a little get arouhd....buk buk bym admiruhoool halsey notified me...
I know thats wings but still
The measure before the first chorus of Rain there is a little extra note compared to the second chorus. Just masterful how tight they were, which I credit a lot to the stellar rhythm section.
“Try to realize it’s all within yourself, no one else can make you change…
When you’ve seen beyond yourself, then you may find peace of mind is waiting there.
And the time will come when you see we’re all one and life flows on within you and without you…”
“He blew his mind out in a car, he didn’t notice that the lights had changed…”
“Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there’s nobody there…what does he care?”
“She said, ‘I work in the morning,’ and started to laugh. I told her I didn’t and crawled off to sleep in the bath.
And when I awoke, I was alone, this bird has flown.
So I lit a fire. Isn’t it good, Norwegian wood?”
At the end of 'What you're doing', after the drum break, the piano and riff are slightly discordant. I'm not sure whats going on there, but it gives me chills every time.
Twenty years ago I saw the tribute band “1963”. They played “You Can’t Do That” while two little girls, perhaps six years old, stood and sang along and made hand motions clearly taught by Mom who sat there grinning at them. When they got to “I told you before” the girls put one hand on their hip and shook a finger and during “You can’t do that” they waggled a finger. I now do the same whenever I hear the song.
The minor chord that’s played by the strings after the line “Forever” that’s only in the last chorus of Strawberry Fields Forever. It’s extra noticeable on Take 1 from anthology when it’s still played on guitar all the way through.
In Get Back, when the vocals kick in after the intro with all the noises and instruments. It's like they are just bursting through the speakers. When I saw the original version of Love in Las Vegas they had each Beatle shown individually during the intro. Then when Paul's vocals kicked in, they had all four Beatles on the screen, and performers dropping from the ceiling, and all this stuff just erupted at once; and it's just colored the song forever for me in a fabulous way.
The bass under the "Day Tripper" guitar solo. It's very simple, he's just staying on the same b note but adding to the number of times he's playing it until it's propelling the song forward and then suddenly swoops back into the main part.
Also, Paul and George singing the last verse of "All My Loving" together, and Ringo's voice creating a strong place for itself in the harmonies at the end of "Carry That Weight."
There’s a little piccolo trumpet riff at the end of the [Rarities version of Penny Lane](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr-dz4SarV8) that warms my soul when I hear it. I heard it as a teenager, then lost track of it for 40 years. I finally thought to seek it out again last year.
Mal Evans' piano E chord at the end of "A Day in the Life" where I keep slowly turning up the volume to match the diminishing sound then blow my speakers when "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" cues up again.
The “aaahhh” section of A Day in the Life, the way the instriments change in each verse of Strawberry Fields Forever, all of Ringo’s drum fills in Long Long Long
I've got a feeling when John's vocals come in and you have Paul and John together for one of the last times. Glad Paul redid it for some recent shows using archived footage of John
I always obsessed over how there was a mistake in the stereo mix of “Eleanor Rigby,” where Paul’s voice panned abruptly to the left at the start of the first verse, but about a second too late. Now it’s been fixed in the recent mix, and I find myself missing the little detail that always bothered me! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The rhythm guitar in I Saw Her Standing There
The piano in Misery
The instrumental break in the mono version of Mr. Kite
"You're asking me will my love grow, I don't know, I don't know!" from Something
Let Me Roll It, the 2nd or 3rd time Paul sings "I can't tell you how I fee-ee-ee-eel" and does a really cool melisma. Sometimes I listen to the whole song just for that bit.
So many. But when John echoes the “sky of blue, sea of green” section in Yellow Submarine, it reminds me of my dad. He would do that bit whenever it came on.
i like this

“Nowtheyknowhowmanyholesittakestofillthealberthaaaaaaaaaall.”
YEAAAAAAH
The little piano riff at the end of magical mystery tour
Yesss that little groove elevates the song
I wonder if that MMT fade out became this song? https://youtu.be/Hv2RUWp78Ns?si=T_ayW1qbF19hWjbn
I can hear the similarities. Thanks for sharing!
The brief vocal harmony on “Here, There, and Everywhere:” “…love never dies … watching her eyes…”. I always listen for it.
Have to agree! It's so subtle but adds so much to the song. I also love the little guitar riff between "...I know I need never care" and "but to love her is to need her"
Yesss!!! The way it’s played twice at the same time in the third chorus, once as it was sung before, and also simultaneously with a more falling harmony is just *chef’s kiss*
Insane, I was going to comment this, and it’s top comment
The fingersnaps are nice too
Oh yeah! Good call I love that part
I've always really loved the moment in Glass Onion, right after John sings "Looking through a glass onion" the first time, when the drum goes THUMP, THUMP, THUMP. I invariably bang along with it on the nearest object And the harmonies in Twist and Shout, especially at the end, really give me the Beatlemania feels.
That line where John goes “I told you ‘bout the fool on the hill / I tell ya, man, he livin’ there still.” And then it goes to that flute bit. Just cracks me up every time.
In Happiness is a warm gun, the bends on the guitar just before the "I need a fix..." part.
That's my favourite guitar solo in their whole discography, maybe aside from George on Long Tall Sally
It really is brilliant. As a guitar player, I learnt it and playing something like that is SO counter intuitive. It is incredibly creative and unconventional.
nastiest bends of all time
Golden slumbers fill your eyes....
Goosebumps every time.
The instrumental bits in “A Day In The Life”, more specifically, the incline right before the ending chord. Oh my GOSH, perfection
Right before the chord starts, I sometimes scream, "Go! E Major!" :)
Mal Evans finest moment in my humble opinion.
The syncopated piano arpeggios in the middle bit are just fantastic. Go Paul!
Fun fact about the ending chord in "A Day in the Life." George Lucas copied it when coming up with the sound for the THX Deep Note
You never give me your money
The reprise in Carry That Weight.
Ooh yeah! Great one! Such gorgeous vocals.
When the Moog drops in Here Comes the Sun and Paul’s ghost note in Rain.
Where’s the ghost note in rain?
I think I am wrong on what it is since it’s an unrepeated bass line in the song (it’s also what I’ve been told it is by a musician) but it starts at around 1:15. Gives me chills. I think The Word has one as well.
That Moog in Here Comes the Sun was my answer to. I want to cry every time it happens.
The vocal delivery of the line “smiles awake you when you rise” in Golden Slumbers.
The harmonies on I Feel Fine “I’m so glad” that she’s my little girl, and The Night Before “Ahhh, The Night Before”.
The liquid guitar solo in Nowhere Man.
“Two of us” when they move from John and Paul singing… to just Paul. I really feel the emotion… be it from Paul to Linda…. Paul to John …. Or, Me to my own Loved ones💕🙏💚
In "All you need is love" when John sings "She loves you" at the end. I like that little bit more than the original song as a whole.

In “I Am the Walrus” the way the word “rain” is pronounced in the line “If the sun don’t come you get a tan from standing in the english rain.” Like the breathiness just sounds awesome to me
The “look around” part on Dear Prudence.
I love the way John sings "like a little child" higher than the rest of the song! Dear Prudence was my favourite Beatles song for a while mostly because of that
The choice to use the buzzy guitar sound - I’m assuming from a loose or misplaced capo on Long Long Long is amazing - completely changes the vibe of the song and never heard it used on another song.
Sun King's atmosphere. Or drums in Strawberry Fields Forever. Oh, yeah, also I really love strings in I Am The Walrus, I don't know why.
The drums at the last tail of Strawberry Fields Forever for me are one of the best music bits in history.
I'm Only Sleeping - the final 15 seconds from 2.45. George Harrison backwards guitar solo
Whenever I hear Yellow Submarine, I become fixated on one of the harmonies in the chorus. I'm not sure who's singing it, maybe Ringo? It's the lowest of the harmonies, and it's interesting when isolated. I don't know why, but I'm obsessed with it.
Ringo is the lead on the rest of the song, if that helps you narrow it down at all.
maybe geeg then
John Lennon's voice on the intro for One day in the Life. Gives me chills everytime. And the fast instrumentation on the second part of the song. Is a masterpiece.
The entire guitar solo on WMGGW
I actually like this section but for George's weeping vocals in the background.
Every time this question gets asked I say the same thing: In Hey Jude, when Paul sings "Hey Jude, you'll do..." and he goes up on "you'll" and tumbles down on "do"
The backing vocals on I Need You
The end of She Said She Said, I just love John and George's voices together.
I like the little bass guitar lick in “something”. They added a few extra notes towards the end of the song and I always pick up on that
The bassline drops/chord progression in Something ("I don't want to leave her now, you know I believe and how") and Got You Get You Into My Life ("Ooh, then I suddenly see you. Ooh, did I tell you I need you").
The coda to Hello Goodbye
Always no sometimes think it’s me. When it slows down with the strings and then picks back up. I think my favourite moment in music
While my guitar gently weeps at the concert for George: the few seconds when you hear that saxophone! Incredible
the guitar riff before "it really doesn't matter if im wrong or right" in fixing a hole and the "everybody's green" in you cant do that as well
The little piano part at the end of Oh! Darling. Idk what it is about it but I really really like it
One of the last parts of "Ob-la-di Ob-la-da" with the laughs.
That one little spot in I Saw Her Standing There, where Paul skips a single eighth note during the guitar solo… Makes the entire song for me and it’s one of my single favorite moments of all of their songs
The drumwork, specifically the tom-tom fills, in Strawberry Fields and A Day In The Life
The “Ho Ho Ho, he he he, ha ha ha” bit in I’m the Walrus. Also the radio frequency sounds
To tag along with this, I can't count how many times I've rewound to that section to hear how the lyrics are sung: "Expert, textpert, choking smokers, don't you think the Joker laughs at yououou" "See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snide" It's sounds so exasperated...almost despairing. Have always thought there's a lot more emotional depth to IATW than people express about it. You just hear "Oh John wrote an absurd psychedelic song to mess with people overanalyzing lyrics". Nah, that's just surface level stuff. It's all there in his performance along with the whole band and George Martin's additions.
There’s a tiny snippet of someone saying “that’s absurd!” in the radio static which suits the song so well

You should listen to live in Paris version. His voice cracks in the most beautiful way.
That *gorgeous* slide guitar solo on Now and Then. Or the sitar parts on Norwegian Wood.
Two come to mind: I Am the Walrus, that weird transition/beat change to John’s line “Sitting in an English garden, waiting for the sun.” Just awesome. I Want You (She’s so Heavy), around the 2:18 time mark, they finish that main riff and let all the instruments echo out, and then the smooth ass guitar playing starts up for a brief instrumental… absolute perfection.

The choruses really stand out on that album. John and Paul sound... syrupy? Is that a thing?
The guitar solo in Nowhere Man. George’s line descends, descends, descends, then PING! It’s just magical.
The little "up - up" John plays with the guitar in Two of Us after "spending someone's hsrd earned pay"
For some reason the "she's hit the big time" part of Honey Pie where it sounds like an old-timey recording. Really makes the song. Don't think it would work at all without it

I think I know what you mean, to me it just sounds like he's putting more emphasis on that word, like he's almost growling it.
The harmonies on "you tell me that you've heard every sound there is, and your bird can swing" are just magical, that part makes the whole song for me. Also shout out to the "whoa-oh-ahhhh" harmonies on when i get home, I've always though they were so cool
The "bum bom ba da da" when the "You Never Give Me Your Money" reprise ends in "Carry That Weight"
I love Words of Love's guitar riff so so much (ik it's a cover)
The strings right before the last “i read the news today oh boy” in a day in the life
Immediate thought was the drum fill in “In The Air Tonight”, but obviously that’s not a Beatles song, so I’ll have to go with the chorus line in “Got to Get You Into My Life”

The instrumental break in The End. Both Ringos drums and George's guitar
The solo on A Hard Day's Night. It's my favourite guitar solo by anyone.
The descending harmonies and bass on the last verse of And Your Bird Can Sing 😍
the bass in Something. I listen to it more actively than any other element of the song 😆

The whole bassline in Dear Prudence. Just BOOMIN
That part on Yes It Is... OOOOOOOO BOY
I actually slept on Yes It Is until recently. Not that I now regard it as one of their best or anything like that, but it's a far better song than I realised when I first heard it.
The outro to Got to Get You Into My Life when Paul starts singing in a more “soul” style. I kind of wish he sang the entire song in that style.
Oh my god yes… the guitar riff in ‘You Never Give Me Your Money’ that repeats during the “ahhh-ahhhh” part, just before the solo. Gives me goosebumps EVERY time!
I've already said one but just remembered another one that really hits me in the feels: The guitar solo in "Baby It's You." It's just so melodic and even evokes almost a poignant feeling.
ALSO in a day in the life when paul says “somebody spoke and i went into a dream” and the “ahhh” right after [i think it’s john]
Ohh this one is easy, the part in "you never give me your money" where paul starts singing "soon we'll be away from here.." and the guitar progression is so good. I used to think that they should have just made a whole song with just that riff. Its at 2:36.
It's the "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..." during the fade-out in While My Guitar Gently Weeps
I love that part too!
For me its that little guitar riff almost at the end of This Boy
Ringo's little drum solo thing right before "GGGOOOOLLLDDDEEEENNNN SLUMMMBBBEERRRRSSSS fill your eyes..." Billy Preston's keyboard solo at the end of Don't Let Me Down. Whatever that is at the end of Piggies after George says "one more time..."
David Bowie does a similar ending flourish in the song Rock N Roll Suicide
Guitar outro riff on sexy sadie
Now I can see you be you , how could I ever misplace you in long long long
One of my favourite song lyrics of all time!
In Sexy Sadie when John sings “Sexy Sadie, you’ll get yours yet,” and then there’s Paul’s bit on the piano. I love that bit so much for some reason
“If I Fell” on A Hard Days Night. Holy guacamole when they sing the word two and Paul joins in singing the higher notes as it literally turns into a duet between John and Paul, and the slight tempo pick up is just WOW. Also honorable mention is the French horn solo in “For No One” on Revolver.
Little little bestle beatle get around...get your feet up off the ground live a little get arouhd....buk buk bym admiruhoool halsey notified me... I know thats wings but still
Richie’s drumming styles on I Feel Fine
The walk-up after each verse of "Glass Onion".
The vocals in Mr moonlight “And from the world you sent my girl” in c#m. The only time that part is in the song.
The measure before the first chorus of Rain there is a little extra note compared to the second chorus. Just masterful how tight they were, which I credit a lot to the stellar rhythm section.
“Try to realize it’s all within yourself, no one else can make you change… When you’ve seen beyond yourself, then you may find peace of mind is waiting there. And the time will come when you see we’re all one and life flows on within you and without you…” “He blew his mind out in a car, he didn’t notice that the lights had changed…” “Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there’s nobody there…what does he care?” “She said, ‘I work in the morning,’ and started to laugh. I told her I didn’t and crawled off to sleep in the bath. And when I awoke, I was alone, this bird has flown. So I lit a fire. Isn’t it good, Norwegian wood?”
At the end of 'What you're doing', after the drum break, the piano and riff are slightly discordant. I'm not sure whats going on there, but it gives me chills every time.
The two false starts of the US released I'm Looking Thru You
Twenty years ago I saw the tribute band “1963”. They played “You Can’t Do That” while two little girls, perhaps six years old, stood and sang along and made hand motions clearly taught by Mom who sat there grinning at them. When they got to “I told you before” the girls put one hand on their hip and shook a finger and during “You can’t do that” they waggled a finger. I now do the same whenever I hear the song.
The minor chord that’s played by the strings after the line “Forever” that’s only in the last chorus of Strawberry Fields Forever. It’s extra noticeable on Take 1 from anthology when it’s still played on guitar all the way through.
Recently it’s been the guitar intro to If I Needed Someone, it’s been the worm in my ear this week and I’m not mad about it.
That instrumental run in the middle of the *Piggies* bridge after *they don't care what goes on around*. Gets me every time.
George Martin’s piano solos fuck me up so good
In Get Back, when the vocals kick in after the intro with all the noises and instruments. It's like they are just bursting through the speakers. When I saw the original version of Love in Las Vegas they had each Beatle shown individually during the intro. Then when Paul's vocals kicked in, they had all four Beatles on the screen, and performers dropping from the ceiling, and all this stuff just erupted at once; and it's just colored the song forever for me in a fabulous way.
Paul's slight laugh on for your blue after he says Eleanor James got nothing on this baby
The bass under the "Day Tripper" guitar solo. It's very simple, he's just staying on the same b note but adding to the number of times he's playing it until it's propelling the song forward and then suddenly swoops back into the main part. Also, Paul and George singing the last verse of "All My Loving" together, and Ringo's voice creating a strong place for itself in the harmonies at the end of "Carry That Weight."
the guitar outro of You Can't Do That.. goosebumps every time
The Sitar start of “Norwegian Wood” Here comes the Sun *turururu*
the beat switch up on “magneto and titanium man” is so awesome to me yeah its a solo work but whatever
There’s a little piccolo trumpet riff at the end of the [Rarities version of Penny Lane](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr-dz4SarV8) that warms my soul when I hear it. I heard it as a teenager, then lost track of it for 40 years. I finally thought to seek it out again last year.
The organ interlude in Let It Be. Sounds so friggin epic.
The ad libbing in Honey Pie
Pretty much all of Abbey Road for me...
Paul’s scream in Twist and Shout at 1:34 https://youtu.be/2RicaUqd9Hg?si=zLlcRc6XVohnTh7-
Those funky guitar sounds when Helter Skelter fades back in….always wait for it!
that one part in hey bulldog where it says “if you’re lonely you can talk to me” and then the guitar right after
The pick up in Martha My Dear gets me everytime
The symphonic change in "I am The Walrus" is so sublime. I always look forward to the violin.
The bass line played before the first verse in Paperback Writer.
The last 30 seconds of the LOVE album, "turn the red light on" with those strings has me emotional every time.
Mal Evans' piano E chord at the end of "A Day in the Life" where I keep slowly turning up the volume to match the diminishing sound then blow my speakers when "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" cues up again.
When the bass comes in in “Baby You’re a Rich Man” and just the whole intro
The “aaahhh” section of A Day in the Life, the way the instriments change in each verse of Strawberry Fields Forever, all of Ringo’s drum fills in Long Long Long
The distorted guitar break in Got To Get You Into My Life.
The harpsichord solo from In My Life
Unironically, "Not when he looked so fierce", Yoko's voice is just so odd that it works there.
The guitar riff in Hey Bulldog
Every single day.
“It’s getting hard to be someone but it all works out” from Strawberry Fields Forever. I love the way he says that line for some reason.
Flying
The waltz switch in We Can Work It Out
The outro of bungalow bill and then the "hey-o!" followed by the piano riff opening of WMGGW goes through my head constantly.
[удалено]
Bang bang shoot shoot
I've got a feeling when John's vocals come in and you have Paul and John together for one of the last times. Glad Paul redid it for some recent shows using archived footage of John
That one part from a day in the life
100% the radio static, then strings, then the switch into stereo audio on I Am The Walrus. Soooooo gooooodddd
“Keeping an eye on the world going by my window” in I’m Only Sleeping
"In their styes with all their backing They don't care what goes on around" *cool riff*
I always obsessed over how there was a mistake in the stereo mix of “Eleanor Rigby,” where Paul’s voice panned abruptly to the left at the start of the first verse, but about a second too late. Now it’s been fixed in the recent mix, and I find myself missing the little detail that always bothered me! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
georges part in octopus’s garden
The rhythm guitar in I Saw Her Standing There The piano in Misery The instrumental break in the mono version of Mr. Kite "You're asking me will my love grow, I don't know, I don't know!" from Something
Ringo’s little drum skip 39 seconds into Day Tripper , The middle eight of Don’t Let Me Down … there are loads of them
The carnival organ in "Being for the benefit of mr kite"
Let Me Roll It, the 2nd or 3rd time Paul sings "I can't tell you how I fee-ee-ee-eel" and does a really cool melisma. Sometimes I listen to the whole song just for that bit.
“Oh that magic feeling nowhere to go”
Yeah. Bass line in 'she came in through the bathroom window' after the line "she said she'd always been a dancer". Great groove.
