AISubs v3.5
In the past few years, "Beatles" has been the most popular song.
After 50 years, that famous album is back.
It's amazing.
Now, we will give you a thorough explanation of "Beatles".
Actually, there is a surprise secret behind the band's name.
The members of "Beatles" dared to call themselves "beats".
We will introduce you the famous song that you should listen to.
And, there is a deep meaning hidden in the lyrics of "Beatles".
This special lecture is by Kunihiko Fujimoto sensei.
He has written many books about "Beatles".
He has also helped with translation and subtitling of movies that are currently being released.
Does everyone know about "Beatles"?
Of course.
You don't know about it, do you?
By the way, you've changed a lot.
You've changed a lot.
The scenery you see is completely different now.
And An Chu is Lena Pion's position.
Congratulations.
Nice to meet you.
Teacher, we're going to learn about "Beatles" today.
It may be difficult to say in one word.
It's a musical entrance.
I've heard of it.
I've heard that "Beatles" was the first music of all genres.
That's right.
We're going to learn about "Beatles", a music pioneer.
First, let's look at their profiles.
They've been active for only eight years.
It's short.
They're from Liverpool, a port city in England.
I think you've heard of their members, John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
It's a band made up of them.
They've been in NMB for nine or ten years.
That's why it's shorter than that.
All members can write and compose songs and vocals.
That's amazing.
At that time, there was one singer and one songwriter in the music scene in England.
They would sing songs provided to them.
"Beatles" made their own songs and sang them.
I think that was new.
Was George Harrison also able to do it?
That's right.
But...
Why George Harrison?
The three on the right always come up first.
That's right.
George always doesn't come up first.
Even if it's a song written by one of them, credit goes to Renaul McCartney.
There's been a trend of doing credit even before their debut.
And George Ice was third, or the youngest.
It was hard for him to get in there.
I think it was such an existence that he acquired talent only after the Beatles disbanded.
There is a possibility of establishing a new rock style.
Let's compare the rock stars who were active at the same time.
Is it like rock and Elvis?
The Beatles were greatly influenced by Elvis Presley.
Originally, he did it with Cowboy Rezend.
But Brian Epstein, the manager, had their hair down and changed it to a mushroom cut.
They changed their image of cleanliness and made it their top priority.
That was one of BEATS' big strengths.
It was a rare rock band.
BEATS was an idol band, but their conversations and conversations with each other were as good as those of Kansai entertainers.
It was an idol band, but it had a good start and it had humor.
I think that gap made it more interesting.
George too.
What are you talking about?
George too?
BEATS performed in Japan too.
This picture is famous.
At the time, it was so popular in Japan that this happened.
It was so popular and it was a big conflict.
When you went to a concert, you had to drop out of school or leave school.
It was a social phenomenon.
Before coming to Japan, of course, Japanese people listened to BEATS' songs.
Since 1964, BEATS has been very popular in Japan.
In 1966, Japan's performance was at its peak.
Do you know what this band's name comes from?
Jihi.
From BEATBOX.
I think it has a face that looks like it's good at it.
Face?
I don't know about faces.
What was BEATBOX like?
BEATBOX is like this.
Hoshiki was very surprised.
Fuka.
I know this.
Do you know it?
That's right.
BEAT and beetle have two meanings together.
I see.
Fuka, as expected, the correct answer is this.
From GOKIBURI.
GOKIBURI?
Maybe you got the information wrong.
BEAT and beetle have the same meaning in Japanese, but it seems that the bandbay contained a deeper meaning.
However, in the UK, they don't have that "gokibiru" image.
So, in that image, the members of BEATLES deliberately changed "kabutobushi" from "beetle" to "beetle" and made it "beetles".
So, it's correct at least.
From now on, we will look at BEATLES' greatness in numbers. First of all...
The number of sales worldwide is...
600 million yen!
Wow!
600 million yen!
BEATLES is world-widely popular.
Just like in Japan, it has spread from the UK to the US.
And it's still selling well.
So, we might have it.
If you release a CD once, how much will it sell?
Well, this time...
One hundred million?
You're lying!
It's already sold six times!
About 80 million yen.
80 million yen?!
Don't lie to me, you two!
The next number is...
55,600 people joined the world's first stadium concert.
Even now, it's not a surprising number.
But, it was a record number of people joining the concert.
Since "BEATS" was so popular, instead of doing it many times in a small venue, we decided to do it once in a big venue.
We did a concert in a stadium called "SHEA STADIUM".
As you know, it was a world record at the time, and "BEATS" was also the first stadium concert.
Wow, that's amazing.
Next, this is amazing.
The ratings of TV programs that appeared.
72%!
Wow!
72!
72%!
Really...
Almost everyone...
That's right. Specifically, "BEATS" went to America for the first time in 1964.
At that time, there was a variety show called "ED O'Sullivan Show" and I was the host of the show.
The ratings of "BEATS" at that time...
Since it was watched by so many people, it had an unexpected impact on the city of New York.
At that time, the crime rate in New York was the lowest in the past 50 years.
Everyone went home to watch TV.
That's right. Everyone was watching TV.
For example, Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel were in their mid-teens at the time,
and they saw "ED O'Sullivan Show" and decided to become musicians.
The last number.
The representative song "Yesterday" has more than 2,000 covers.
There is no other song that has so many covers.
It is the number one cover of "Guinness Book of World Records".
"Yesterday" by Bruce Springsteen, "BEATS" by Bobby Dylan, "Yesterday" by Katy Perry...
Anyway, it has more than 2,000 covers.
Paul McCartney recorded "BEATS" by himself, even though there were four of them.
It was his first solo hit.
- Oh, really? - Yes.
And he said he wrote this song in his dream.
When he woke up in the morning, he heard a good melody.
So he asked around if anyone knew this song.
But no one knew it, so he thought it was his own song.
This year, the album "abbey road" has been resold and it is second in the world.
It is said that "beatles" popularity is rising.
I just brought it today, have you ever seen it?
It's famous.
It's super famous.
Is it a record jacket?
It's a record, yes.
Not at the time?
It's at the time.
It's not a pretty one, but it's okay.
Is it valuable?
No, it's usually...
It's okay if it's used?
Yes, it's usually sold for about 500 yen.
It's usually sold for about 500 yen?
Is that so?
It's not valuable at all.
This album was released in 1969, so it's been exactly 50 years.
It's famous for this picture of crossing a pedestrian crossing.
Originally, there was a circle of people going up to "abbey road" and taking pictures.
Paul and Ringo didn't want to go to such a place, so there was this road in front of the studio.
It's a road in front of the studio, and it's very easy to line up and take pictures.
But there's enough scaffolding, and I think it's a miraculous one even though we're crossing it.
You didn't pose together or anything like that?
No, I just crossed it three times and six times to the left and right.
Did you go back and forth three times?
I only took three turns.
But you're making a lot more steps than climbing "abbey road", aren't you?
The number of steps you walk is much less, isn't it?
Like climbing "everest", like "abbey road" three times in a row.
That's right.
That's... right.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Were you pushed back like that?
No, it's a lot of effort cut and taken.
That's what you're saying, isn't it?
It's annoying to go to everest, so let's take it here.
That's what you're saying, isn't it?
I'll say that again in my own way.
Why?
Why are you doing that?
Go ahead, go ahead.
No, I really thought so, too.
Thank you.
I thought so, too.
There was some number.
The number of songs Beatles released in eight years is 213 songs.
From now on, we will introduce you songs that are particularly recommended while mixing the miscellaneous music hidden in the songs.
First of all, here it is!
"Help"!
Don't you know it?
What? No way!
Momoka, 16 years old.
Don't you know "Help"?
I don't know it.
What? Wait a minute.
You haven't seen "Anything Determined"?
If you ask me, I think you know it.
If you say you don't know it, when you look at it now...
Oh!
What?
No way!
The first appearance!
"Nanaho"!
"Shinshin"!
"Panda"!
Do you know it?
"Kojirin", "Chihi", "Nagisa" only!
It's worth talking about.
It's a song that doesn't have "honyarara" at that time.
What do you think it is?
"Kimochi ga nai" (I don't feel good)
It is unusual in any era.
The correct answer is...
It's a song without an intro.
That's right.
You know it, don't you?
Everything is confirmed.
It's a song without an intro, but it means that it starts with a song.
It's like "Zensou ga nai".
There are several songs with an intro.
I think it's also a characteristic song.
At that time, it was novel to start singing all of a sudden.
That's right.
There are many novel songs in one song of the album.
It started with a count and a song.
- You knew it! If Momo had asked you, you would have known. - I knew it!
- You would have known if you had asked us, too. - Yes.
Is there anyone who doesn't know even if you ask?
- What is it? - I don't know.
- She is 17 years old and young, so she doesn't know. - I don't know.
- You don't watch it, do you? - Watch it!
Everything is fixed.
- It's really interesting. - It's interesting.
There is a famous song that starts singing all of a sudden and doesn't have an intro.
It's this song.
It doesn't have an intro.
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
The song is long and goes over 7 minutes.
At the time, it was very rare for a single to go over 7 minutes.
John Lennon had a wife named Cynthia.
John Lennon was studying with Ms. Ono Yoko.
Between John and Cynthia, there was a boy named Julian.
When Paul went to Cynthia and Julian's house,
he thought about it in the car.
At first, "Hey Jude" was "Hey Jules", which is Julian's nickname.
He changed "Jules" to "Jude",
and wrote the song to encourage John's son, Julian.
Here is the next famous song chosen by John Lennon.
I Want to Hold Your Hand
At the time, it was rare for John Lennon to put "honya rara" in a song.
What is it?
Summer
Kokka
"Kokka"?
In the song.
It's too rare.
Anchu
"Lines"!
"Lines"?
Oh, like a story.
"In the middle of the song, I say 'my hand', 'your hand' and 'talk like that for you'".
What is it?
What was it?
"Lines"!
Ah, "lines"…
It can be applied to what Anji is thinking.
It can be adding this.
Next, Nagisa!
Well… "Introduction"?
It sounds like "I'm wearing glasses".
You can do it at a concert or something.
It sounds like "introduction" to a song.
Like "the sound of a cockroach walking".
How can you put that in?!
It's a small sound!
It will not fit into the music of a large song!
It's this one. "Tebyoshi" (hand gesture)
"Tebyoshi" (hand gesture)
This is it.
This was rare.
That's right. It was a unique sound.
It was surprisingly difficult.
But Sensei pretended to be calm and did it in a small way.
I watch it a lot.
Sensei did it perfectly.
When it first landed in the U.S., it was released as a single.
It caught fire in the U.S. with this song.
It's a song like that.
With only a reservation, it sold more than one million copies.
It was the first song for Beatles to win first place all over the U.S.
The next song is "Tomorrow Never Knows".
It's rare in the world.
It's assumed that a certain person's voice is used.
Chihiro.
A ghost's voice.
It's included in the recording.
It happens sometimes.
Shion.
My mother's voice.
What is your mother talking about?
Did you eat again today?
Can you say that?
Kuwa.
High-heeled apple.
That's not an apple.
High-heeled apple is also a star.
The answer is this.
It's a duck eye voice.
This is a real voice, isn't it?
No, it's not real.
It's different, isn't it?
Since 1956, there have been many experimental sounds with beats.
I think this song is one of the best.
Paula McCartney made a sound collage at home.
She reversed her own voice and made it fast.
She added a sound like a duck eye voice to the song.
That's the answer.
She changed her laughing voice to a duck eye voice.
It's a surprising idea.
We could see the greatness of Beatles' sound well.
In this way, Beatles had various ingenuity in the song.
In fact, not only music, but also lyrics are profound.
So, let's move on to the next corner.
A profound Beatles' world of lyrics that you want to enjoy.
The movie subtitles and so on are handwritten.
Here are the lyrics that the teacher recommends.
Ob la di ob la da
It's a warm song, isn't it?
Yes, it's very peaceful.
Paul McCartney is good at writing such story-like songs.
Recently, the combination of chord progression and melody is the most novel, interesting and memorable.
This song is the best song that has been surveyed data-wise.
That's right.
It's a song about a proud daily life where a man and woman get married and live happily with their children.
Here are the lyrics.
A male protagonist called Desmond and a female protagonist called Molly come out and have a conversation.
It's a song that's approaching and getting a little fun.
Next, there is the last part of this song, but let's take a look at it, too.
Molly helps the children at the market.
Desmond has make-up on his handsome face at home.
And at night, he sings.
Do you notice anything strange about it?
Molly...
Desmond is a man.
That's right. He's a man, but he has make-up on his face.
It's a little weird, isn't it?
As you just said, the correct one is Desmond at the top and Molly at the bottom.
Paul McCartney sang the last lyrics wrong.
You just made a mistake, didn't you?
You didn't have a deep meaning or anything like that.
I just sang it wrong.
But what's interesting about "Beatles" is that it's interesting.
You know, men and women change.
He said it was interesting and tried to use it, and recorded it as it was.
Did you buy this song?
Yes, and I made this the final okay take.
It's a completely different story.
That's right.
I think I made a little mistake.
As an episode dog, it's the worst.
Well, there's a lot of things, but Desmond has make-up on his face at home.
Oh, no, it's Molly.
Oh, I'm sorry.
As an episode, it's the worst.
I think what's interesting about "Beatles" is that it's intentionally left as it is.
I see.
"Beatles" sang such humorous and cheerful lyrics,
and this song, which turned such personal experience into lyrics,
"Norwegian Wood".
The song is called "Norwegian Wood",
and it's a song where John cheats on his girlfriend.
Let's look at the lyrics.
A girl hooked me up.
No, she hooked me up.
She showed me her room.
Nice, isn't it? Is it a Norwegian wallpaper?
You can stay wherever you like.
We drank wine and waited for our chance.
We talked until 2 a.m.
Then she said, 'I have to go to bed.'
It's about how he feels about cheating on his girlfriend,
and how he turns it into lyrics.
Actually, John wrote this song
with his girlfriend in mind,
and made it into a story-like song.
At the end of the song,
I have to go to bed
means it's time for him to go to bed.
To continue,
When I woke up in the morning,
I was sleeping in the bus stop,
and the girls were gone.
It's like a trap.
But what's interesting about this song is that
Paul McCartney wrote this at the end of the song.
Here are the lyrics Paul wrote at the end of the song.
Actually, there's more to it than meets the eye.
After they're gone,
I lit the fire
sounds like "tabaco ni hi wo tsuketa" (smoking a cigarette)
but Paul uses it more aggressively.
I lit the house on fire.
It says "wallpaper" around the room,
but it's actually made of Norwegian wood.
The wood in the house
is relatively cheap and easy to burn.
To give you a hint,
Paul McCartney added more lyrics to the song.
That's why he added "more house" to the song.
"I lit the house on fire" means...
After the girls are gone...
Can't you do it together?
Yes.
Is that what it means?
Yes.
That's terrible.
You're overdoing it.
