we can work it out (with a drumstick to paul's ass?)

Level with me: how close are Ringo and George to killing Paul and John messily, with drumsticks? Ballpark; that was several takes by the clothing changes and the vocals. The Beatles almost ended that day, didn't they?



Seperis: John making faces at the beginning is hilarious
Seperis: And Paul grinning and singing and looking indulgent
svmadelyn: the *contortions*
Seperis: like "I KNOW YOU ARE DOING THAT AND I WIL NOT LAUGH"
Seperis: The funny thing is.
svmadelyn: I WILL BE A PROFESSIONAL
Seperis: This happend in several takes and changes.
Seperis: Adn they're still giggling through both.
Seperis: Oh God
Seperis: Okay at the beginining?
Seperis: When John is making faces
svmadelyn: that explains the different clothes
Seperis: And Paul can't see them but trying not ot laugh
Seperis: Then John looks at Paul
Seperis: And Paul looks down at him like "GOD YOU ARE ADORABLE WHY DO I LOVE YOU".
svmadelyn: Yes, exactly
Seperis: And John grinning for the camera.
svmadelyn: it's like, how are we in this boat together, you stoned asshole.
Seperis: And God.
Seperis: Okay
Seperis: Paul laughs every tijme he looks at John.
svmadelyn: I think it's because John's so high
svmadelyn: that's probably why ringo and george look so over it
Seperis: Paul struggles to be a professional
svmadelyn: like, we've done this TEN TIMES NOW
Seperis: But john is just too adorable.
Seperis: Yeah, george and ringo are not amused.
svmadelyn: and paul's just like: TOTALLY IN LOVE
Seperis: "TAKE YOU BOYFRIEND AND GET HIM UNHIGH ALREADY"
Seperis: Paul: BUT HE IS SO ADORABLE.
svmadelyn: exactly.
Seperis: John: I totally am.
svmadelyn: John: *BEAMS*
svmadelyn: paul: *BEAMS*
Seperis: Everyone: WE WILL KILL YOU BOTH.
svmadelyn: john: *BEAMS*
Seperis: Paul: LOOK AT HIS SMILE!
svmadelyn: paul: *BEAMS*
svmadelyn: ringo: diaf
Seperis: John: *totally tripping his ass off*
Seperis: Ringo and George did look very "Diaf".
svmadelyn: they seriously look so like, i will cut you with a drumstick
Seperis: *dying*
Seperis: I love how Paul gets all committed to the song.
Seperis: Then boom, John.
svmadelyn: like, SOMEONE HAS TO SALVAGE
svmadelyn: I PICK MCCARTNEY
Seperis: Ringo and Geoge "WE HAVE WEAPONS".
Seperis: Oh my God..
svmadelyn: they exude the wish to do violence.
Seperis: George's hatred.
Seperis: I CAN FEEL IT
svmadelyn: IT IS PALPABLE
svmadelyn: ahaha oh god, this is hysterical when you pay more attention to george and ringo
svmadelyn: it's hard to tear yourself away from paul's beaming face
svmadelyn: and john's crazy smiling
svmadelyn: but when you do
svmadelyn: it's SO GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS OF BEING IN THIS EFFING BAND I HATE YOU BOTH SO FUCKING MUCH



...seriously. Paul was about two takes away from a drumstick up the ass there.

ETA: The more I watch, the more hysterical I get at the look on Ringo's face. Dear God, Paul, don't turn around. Just, better you never see that.

ETA 2 Reading the wikipedia on this song makes it that much more hilarious.

Ahahaha, you've made my morning with this.

[seperis]

It's like joy, if one can be joyful watching men contemplate homicide in front of potential audience. WHICH YES ONE CAN BE JOYFUL FOR THAT.

[cereta]

AHAHAHAHA dead and rising from the dead to send this to slashspouse RIGHT NOW.

[seperis]

There's a version with Paul looking nervously at George standing in stabbing range with his guitar. Madelyn was like "IS PAUL ROLLING HIS EYES WHY" then the shot pulls out and you realize George can stab him to death and he's kinda terrified. John, of course, is seeing leprechauns at that point, so doubtless threat of extinction isn't making the cut.

It's awesome.

[scy]

*cries with laughter*
Seriously.


Everyone: VIOLENCE IS IMMINENT.
John and Paul: ALL MUST LOOK UPON US AND GLEEE!
Everyone: ....I think you mean DESPAIR.

[seperis]

TOTALLY THIS.

Hah, the video for You're Going to Lose That Girl was, not to overshare, marks the exact moment at which I hit puberty, and also means that I ship George/Paul for NO GOOD REASON AT ALL except microphone proximity. So this makes me so happy.

[seperis]

My coworker just sent me this. *hilarity*

[aivilo_18]

"WE HAVE WEAPONS".

::glees::

It's always the quiet ones. This video is one of the many reasons why George is and always will be my favorite Beatle.

[seperis]

EDGE OF VIOLENCE.

[out_there]

...seriously. Paul was about two takes away from a drumstick up the ass there.

Awwww. It makes me feel so much better to think that even the Beatles had days where physical violence was a reasonable answer.

[seperis]

So close. Another couple of takes, Paul and John might not have made it out alive.

[sami]

... George has the most comprehensive I will cut you, bitch, don't even face I have EVER SEEN.

[seperis]

OMG YES. And the unenthusiastic symbols. *hilarity*

[torra.livejournal.com]

Okay, I physically sporfled at this and hurt myself. I hope you're happy.

Also? OMG you two are so right, I can not argue in the slightest about anything you just said. ::ROTFLMAO::

[seperis.livejournal.com]

*hand* This version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_UMZ_9RBmk&feature=related

At .18 Paul looks nervously to the right? GEORGE IS SUDDENLY REALLY CLOSE WITH THAT GUITAR.

I can't stop laughing. I keep expecting murder on The Beatles set. Just right there. Messy.

[torra.livejournal.com]

::ROTFL:: He totally does that, "Follow my eyes. This man is holding me hostage!" eye-shift and then eyebrow raise. He really, really does. Mostly, though, I can't stop watching how Ringo hits those staccato drum beats like he's thinking: "BLOW. UP. BLOW. UP. BLOW. UP. NOW." hehehe

[seperis.livejournal.com]

Holy shit he totally does.

Survival? A miracle.

[libitina]

On this version, there's a cut at 1:14 that makes me think there was near hitting of guitars. This is hilarious. Thank you for sharing.

[nrrrdy-grrrl.livejournal.com]

George and Ringo look more as though thet're ready for tea and a nice nap.

[seperis.livejournal.com]

Heh.

[cat-77.livejournal.com]

Hee! What a way to start the morning. Thank you.

[seperis.livejournal.com]

Early morning gonna-kill-bandmates always clears the palate for the week!

Still laughing at work. So adorable. So very high.

My former choir conductor is the organist at one of the big churches in Manhattan. He played at a wedding where Paul McCartney was a guest. After the ceremony, he was talking to him in the apse, and a woman walked in and flashed him. Paul was like, oh, that happens to me all the time.

[seperis.livejournal.com]

His life is magical sometimes. *hands*

[keewick.livejournal.com]

OMG, HILARIOUS. I can't stop laughing!

[seperis.livejournal.com]

I'm at work and burying my head in my arms now to control the screeching.

[stillane.livejournal.com]

What the ever-loving hell is that on the piano at 1:39? Did someone think, Gee, Lennon is too focused today. We can fix that. *blink*

... And who here thinks that someone was McCartney?

[seperis.livejournal.com]

*hand up* I know I know I know!

(Yo, if John didn't think that picture was talking to him? I'm surprised. I was getting a contact high watching him.)

[miriad.livejournal.com]

This may be a totally stupid question but you have seen "A Hard Days Night" right? And "Help"?

IF NOT, YOU MUST DO SO ASAP.

I will SEND YOU my copies, if need be but you need to see them. Seriously. :)

Also, if you haven't read this, you probably should. (http://glockgal.livejournal.com/447525.html)
