daddytoddMy favorite Beatles song.
No, really!
Including "lost" verse not included on the released version (but featured in the film "Yellow Submarine")
It's All Too Much
By George Harrison
(Too Much! Ah... Ah... Ah)
It's all too much
It's all too much
When I look into your eyes
your love is there for me
And the more I go inside
the more there is to see
It's all too much for me to take
the love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
for us to take it's all too much
Floating down the stream of time
from life to life with me
Makes no difference where you are
or where you'd like to be
It's all too much for me to take
the love that's shining all around here
All the world is birthday cake
so take a piece, but not too much
Sail me on a silver sun
where I know that I'm free
Show me that I'm everywhere
and get me home for tea
It's all too much for me to take
there's plenty there for everybody
The more you give, the more you get
the more it is only too much
Nice to have the time to take
this opportunity
Time for me to look at you
and you to look at me
It's all too much for me to see
the love that's shining all around here
The more I learn the less I know
But what I do is all too much
It's all too much for me to take
the love that's shining all around you
Everywhere it's what you make
for us to takei it's all too much
It's too much... Ah!
It's too much
With your long blonde hair
And your eyes of blue
With your long blonde hair
and your eyes of blue
you're too much... Ah!
We are dead
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much, too much, too much,
Too much, too much... Etc.
No, really!

Date: 2005-04-13 07:23 am (UTC)To be this woofy and know music too (I mean, other than the Pet Shop Boys and the Phantom of the Opera) is just... well, very groovy.
My parents bought me my first "stereo" when I was 15. It was a cheap piece of crap that played everything too fast. For years, anytime I heard a song on the radio that I had the record for, it just seemed SOOOO slow to me. Anway, the first album I got for my new stereo was "Yellow Submarine." I had never used headphones at that point, and my stereo didn't even have a jack for them. But I used to lie down on the floor and put one speaker on each side of my head and listen to this album. My favorite song was "Hey, Bulldog!" The funny thing is, somehow I had the balance knob turned so that there were NO lead vocals. Just a sort of mumbling now and then. I listened to the song for weeks thinking it was an instrumental. One day I turned the knob just for fun, and went "wow! There's words to this too!" I still love the song. The solo is one of the first things I learned on guitar.
"It's All Too Much" was a favorite too. The intro is one of the heaviest things the Beatles ever did. I LOVE the way the whole song is ONE chord. And the lyrics are very cool. I've had a bootleg album since I was in high school that has the extra verse on it.
