We All Live in a Yellow Submarine

[pondman]

Just keeps going through my head.

 

[TigerClaw]

Yes, but it is one of the last things

the beatles did so it is kinda depressing.

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Well, the movie came out much later than the song, and the Beatles didn't really have anything to do with it. If you want to be depressed watch "Let it Be."

 

[glamorilla]

..or Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band with the Bee Gees...

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Well, again, the Beatles really weren't involved with the project.

Thank God.

 

[TigerClaw]

Ok, I admit I was young.

so, who wrote and sang the yellow submarine then?

 

[glamorilla]

Oh iknow...it's just depressing.

the Beatles did Sgt.Peppers.

Then it was copied...

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Sorry. Young people. I'll explain...

The Beatles wrote and recorded "Yellow Submarine" and all the other songs used in the film, but the film itself was put together years after the recordings. All the non-singing voices in the film (including the dialogue for John, Paul, George and Ringo) were done by John Clive, Geoffrey Hughes, Paul Angelis, Dick Emery, Lance Percival, and Peter Batten. The Beatles weren't involved with the movie. It wasn't until they saw a cut, and liked it, that they agreed to appear at the end in a short filmed sequence.

 

[TigerClaw]

Ok,

so, you said they recorded it earlier in their career. How long before their break up did they record the song.

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

You're going to make me do math?

66 - Yellow Sub the song
68 -- Yellow Sub the movie
70 - Beatles break up

Between the song and the break-up the Beatles did a hell of a lot.

Bump

When John married Yok Ono it change their muisic but I don't believe that is what caused the breakup, it was their egos.
