The Beatles - P.S. I Love You High Quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow355d7Ubkw&feature=email&fmt=18Copyright - 1963 EMI Records Ltd."P.S. I Love You" is a song composed principally by Paul McCartney credited to McCartney-Lennon, which was first recorded by the The Beatles and released on 5 October 1962 as the B-side of their "Love Me Do" single. It is also included on their 1963 album Please Please Me.RecordingThe version featured on the single and album was recorded in ten takes on 11 September 1962 at Abbey Road Studios, London. Session drummer Andy White (brought in by producer George Martin as he wasn't happy with Pete Best, and hadn't yet heard Ringo Starr) gave the recording a lightweight cha cha [2] treatment, and consequently it misses the distinctive heavy drum beat that characterised most of their early music. Starr plays maracas.The Beatles (with Ringo Starr playing drums) also recorded this song at the BBC on 25 October 1962; 27 November 1962 and 17 June 1963 for subsequent broadcast on the BBC radio programmes Here We Go, Talent Spot, and Pop Go the Beatles, respectively.InspirationWritten in 1961, while Paul McCartney was in Hamburg, this song is sometimes considered to be a dedication to his then-girlfriend, Dot Rhone. However, McCartney denies this; he described "P.S. I Love You" as" a theme song based on a letter... It was pretty much mine. I don't think John had much of a hand in it. There are certain themes that are easier than others to hang a song on, and a letter is one of them... It's not based in reality, nor did I write it to my girlfriend from Hamburg, which some people think. " John Lennon said about this song:" That's Paul's song. He was trying to write a Soldier Boy like the Shirelles. He wrote that in Germany, or when we were going to and from Hamburg. I might have contributed something. I can't remember anything in particular. It was mainly his song. " ("Soldier Boy" was a US #1 single for the Shirelles in 1962.)With a pleasant sounding melody, the verse and chorus could be considered typical McCartney, and its lyrics were popular with female fans. The young Lennon and McCartney would often introduce what might be considered incongruous sounding jazz chords into their very early compositions (almost certainly McCartney's influence, as he was the more advanced musician at this early stage[6] ) as is the case here inserting C#7 (on "write") between the chords G and D in its opening chorus.The Beatles admired Buddy Holly and the Crickets. In addition to the literal content of the song lyrics, writer Jonathan Cott suggested that the "P.S." part of the song was also a subtle reference to "Peggy Sue", from the lyric "I love you, Peggy Sue".Re-releaseOn its twentieth anniversary, Parlophone re-issued "P.S. I Love You" as a picture disc, and shortly afterwards as a 12-inch discLyrics: As I write this letter Send my love to you Remember that I'll always Be in love with you Treasure these few words Till we're together Keep all my love forever P.S. I love you you, you, you I'll be comin' home again to you, love Until the day I do love P.S. I love you you, you, you As I write this letter Send my love to you (you know I want you to) Remember that I'll always Be in love with you (yeah) Treasure these few words Till we're together Keep all my love forever P.S. I love you you, you, you As I write this letter Send my love to you (you know I want you to) Remember that I'll always Be in love with you (yeah) I'll be comin' home again to you, love Until the day I do love P.S. I love you you, you, you you, you, you I love you
