To your mother!
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
Sell 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 and it's 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
And 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 take
It's all too much
It's too much
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
We are getting better
Too much, too much
Too much, too much...
It's all too much

Journey (pre Perry) did a great cover of this song.https://youtu.be/O4kY06mz9fg?s...
Never heard this one before.
It aged so well....
Thank you RP.

a beatles song that has not been played to death ranked it 7
It's hard to believe The Beatles went from I Want to Hold Your and to this inside seven years.
Godlike.
Godlike.
mixdown is terrible. phase issues?
This should really be a 9 - not because it's a great track - this was originally recorded in 1969- long before the days of multi-track as we know today - The Beatles, with Geroge Martin, were using the recoding studio as a laboritory - look for 321 -McCartney!!
Well it doesn't happen that often with the Beatles but this song sux

it all happened in less than a single decade - 1962-1970
Mind blowing...

Ahh yes. Those 4 delightful lads from Liverpool.

Seen here in search of new material -
Each time I listen to this masterpiece, I hear something new. Harrison got the full Beatles treatment on this one. I appreciate it now more than ever.

Interesting to hear from the dislikers of this song. Not exactly a Beatle best, but I guess for the real fans and those who grew up with or learned (and are amazed) of their history can appreciate these types of numbers. This could come under the category of "If this song was done by anyone other than the Beatles then the song would most likely have failed" category.
So, as a die-hard Beatle fanatic, I like it!
BUT, it didn't need this remix.

Sounds like a group of fellas having a good time in the recording studio.
There is an even longer 10 minute version I got off of the old Napster back in the day that is much more enjoyable than this mix. It is more like the original version, just stretched out.
Must be my least favorite Beatles song. I dunno is it the hand clapping, repetition of lyrics not so sure but I don't feel good while it plays.
Primitive Radio Gods thankfully picks me back up again.
it is they share is not the rule but. your choice your choice...

I've always loved this tune. I was a huge Yellow Submarine fan when I was a kid. I can't tell you how disappointed I was that side 2 only had George Martin incidental music. And I was puzzled by Hey Bulldog, since it didn't appear in the original movie. But I knew it was a great song!
There's something funny about this remix that I don't like. Not sure what it is. For one thing, it doesn't start with that incomprehensible exclamation (which is "To your mother!" if you believe the lyrics posted here.)

Not sure I agree with you. Seems like a lot of McCartney tunes (and Lennon/McCartney tunes) have become staples of elevator and lobby music. Not saying lobby music is a celebration of greatness, just that is a measurement of "music that is here to stay".
Amazing how great, even timeless, this psychedelic George and John stuff still sounds, whereas much of the McCartney Seaside Vaudevillian Music Hall oeuvre has aged poorly.

There are those that may find the descriptor "Godlike" to be a tad hyperbolic. I think that, in this instance, I like it just fine.

This album was more about the cartoon than the music, I sharpied a Blue Meany on my ultimate frisbee and my snowboard helmut.

Blistering psychedelia before there was such a thing. Recorded before the Summer of Love, and still sounding alive and triumphant 50 years later. George Harrison's talent and confidence clearly on the rise in this somewhat neglected track.
Viva George!

Somewhere I have a 10 or 12 minute version from the old napster daze. Have to go and find it.

Make it stop
As with the song's title, this is way too much :)

They were under contract to United Artists for the music for a third film. This was their way to honor that without having to endure another Help! So yeah, most of the material are things that wouldn't have otherwise seen the light of the day given other circumstances.
That said, this track and Hey, Bulldog are faves. The rest of it is pretty much fodder. The other exception: All You Need Is Love, which was part of a first-ever worldwide satellite broadcast that preceded this LP by only a short while.
Not a hater...but I thought most all of the 'Yellow Submarine' output was rather substandard fluff.

I've noticed how much George's voice has grown on me over the decades. (Obviously) his music is simply on a different level than the two giants of John and Paul. Interpret that as you will.

Quite surprising how much of this song actually songs very current. Not so much the singing - that sounds pretty dated now, but definitely the guitar work - wouldn't go amiss in any modern indy/rock band.
Just goes to show how massively influential The Beatles still are!

I've never heard this wonderful song sound so awful. Is it because it's a remixed version?
DELIGHTFUL. If I had to, or even could, pick my 10 favorite Beatle songs, this would be one of them. A mere five years from Twist and Shout to this...

It's just an indication of how prolific the Beatles were that they first recorded the Harrison song "It's All Too Much" in 1967, actually before the release of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, but it did not thematically match that album, and they had planned to put it on the next release, Magical Mystery Tour, but it was pushed up to Yellow Submarine...

Always dug this song. No matter what version they played.
As for the teacher discussing their evolution from She Loves You to this and beyond, well, I just said today to my wife that the great thing about the Beatles was that even in the less profound songs, they were just really a huge level above a lot of the other songs at the time. For example, Help is not really deep but it is excellent. And, If I Fell was a musically complex song that changed keys: something unheard of then in Rock. Jazz and Classical yes but not Rock. I really appreciate them even more now (back then I really didn't think about key changes much).

I know this isn't George Harrison's best song, but listening to this, and to "I Want to Tell You" from Rubber Soul, I can't help but think that John and Paul sometimes liked to sabotage George's songs. Mind you, this is a remix so maybe the original is less stuffed.
Really this is one of their worst pieces.

Hearing the fuzzed-out guitar reminds me of my favorite quote from Sir George Martin: "Sometimes there's nothing like NOISE!"
His book, All You Need Is Ears is worth the trouble and cost of finding it if you are interested in the technical details of their recordings.

"With your long blond hair and your eyes of blue...." - from Sorrow by the Merseybeats or the Merseys version of that group, quoted here by the greatest band in RnR history and covered by arguably the greatest British solo artist in RnR history, Mr. Bowie on his Pinups album.
I can't believe it! I finally found a Beatles song that I really dislike. I thought that was impossible, but there it is. Feel like the washing machine has an uneven load. But hey, the other hundred odd songs are all 10s.
