    I'm very impressed especially the John and Paul impersonators.
  • Here's a story for you: I turned 8 years old in '69 the year this song came out. We lived in California at the time, and my oldest brother and I were big Beatles fans. They had this talent show at the school, so my friend Tommy Hartman and I learned this song (I played guitar and sang, he played the tambourine and sang). It was just a three chord song, so pretty easy to pick up. When you are a child, you don't really think about what the words are saying, you just think it's a catchy melody and neat sounding. They had auditions a few days before for just the staff. Man, you should have seen those teacher's facial reactions when we got to the chorus of that song..."Christ, you know it ain't easy...".....We ended up doing "Get Back", which is pretty much a two chord song...naw, another 3 chord song with that D A E progression going into the verse, and here and there throughout, or B flat F C if you're gonna play it in C, you know, half step down 6, 4, 1 in what ever key you pick to play it in... hehehehe!!!! True story...

    Always loved Paul’s harmonies on this song. The guy nailed it, hell they all did!

    First tribute band that shocks me. Man they're good.
  • @keithnaylor1981
    Brilliant. Saw you performing in Halifax UK. You're the greatest! Change of outfits etc, characterisation etc, all spot on! You all left George alone on the stage to do While my guitar gently weeps. It was sensational. Keep doing your Magical Mystery Tour! KAN 3.19 UK

    Not only do bootleg John and Paul look like originals, they also have same mannerisms as originals and they look at each other in middle of the song like originals used to.

  • @sdonlenart1252
    I am not a fan of "tribute" bands -- but these guys are really good.
  • Eles sempre serão: copiados, imitados, cantados, em filmes, desenhos, covers, porque sempre serão os melhores, John, George, Paul, e Ringo (THE BEATLES) não me canso de ouvi-los.
  • that was absolutely mind blowing!!!! I LOVE the Beatles and I almost believed I was watching them....and some really funny banter
  • @johnw5584
    Incredible. I thought it was the Beatles. I was just trying to think when this was performed. Then I read the comments. Even the gum chewing of John.
