Help - The Beatles
While watching a nightly re-run, S&S had Steve Weltman (a music producer and manager who started his career making tea for the Beatles) as a guest. When asked 'who his favourite Beatle was", he said 'John, without any doubt". He then went on to say that 'John was the humour, the sarcasm, the cutting edge, the politics & Paul made everything pop sensible'.
Steve urged everyone to read the lyrics from Help, because it was a cry for help from the inside & then Paul turned it into a pop song. You can see Steve talking about it here ~> http://youtu.be/iU-iUqhU2jc?t=6s
So since it's a fantastic song, from a fantastic band & I can relate to those words, here is Help.
Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help.
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like I've never done before.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, oh.
