"BECAUSE" by The Beatles



Listen to this song by The Beatles, "Because"
Resultado de imagen de Abbey Road
Lyrics

Because the world is round it turns me on
Because the world is round, ah
Because the wind is high it blows my mind
Because the wind is high, ah
Love is old, love is new
Love is all, love is you
Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry
Because the sky is blue, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...



Writer(s): LENNON JOHN WINSTON, MCCARTNEY PAUL JAMES
John Lennon came up with the idea for this song when Yoko Ono played Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" on the piano. He asked her to play some chords backwards and he created a song from what he heard with straightforward lyrics.
John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison did the vocals, and it is the only song by The Beatles with three singers. They overdubbed their vocals two times to achieve the effect of nine people singing.
Paul McCartney and George Harrison considered this track to be their favourite on "Abbey Road". It took more than five hours to record it preceding with a very intense rehearsal. The sound engineer Geoff Emerick recalled, "They knew they were doing something special, and they were determined to get it right."
The version of this song from the "Anthology 3" album was featured in the trailer for the film "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" (2017).

  • Phenomenal Woman, by MAYA ANGELOU


Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size   
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,   
The stride of my step,   
The curl of my lips.   
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,   
That’s me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,   
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.   
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.   
I say,
It’s the fire in my eyes,   
And the flash of my teeth,   
The swing in my waist,   
And the joy in my feet.   
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

Men themselves have wondered   
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,   
They say they still can’t see.   
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back,   
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.

Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed.   
I don’t shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.   
When you see me passing,
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It’s in the click of my heels,   
The bend of my hair,   
the palm of my hand,   
The need for my care.   
’Cause I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
