The Beatles - Anna (Go To Him)
The Beatles - Anna (Go To Him) High Quality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZWEw8zkdQU&feature=email&fmt=18 Copyright 1963 EMI Records Ltd. "Anna (Go to Him)" is a song written and originally performed by Arthur Alexander. His version was released as a single by Dot Records on September 17, 1962. According to Richie Unterberger, music critic for All Music Guide: " "'Anna' was one of the great early soul ballads, even if its loping groove was closer to a midtempo than a slow ballad. Like several of Alexander's songs, it would come to be more famous in its cover version than through its original release. And it was actually a small hit when it first came out in 1962, getting to #68 in the pop charts and #10 in the R&B listings." " Despite the title, throughout the song the lyric is "go with him" rather than "go to him". The Beatles version A personal favorite of John Lennon's, it became part of the The Beatles' early repertoire and was consequently recorded by them for their 1963 debut album, Please Please Me. In the U.S., Vee Jay Records released it on Introducing... The Beatles (July 22, 1963) and Capitol Records re-released it on The Early Beatles (March 22, 1965). Vee Jay also released "Anna (Go to Him)" on the EP Souvenir of Their Visit: The Beatles in the U.S. The Beatles recorded the song on February 11, 1963 in three takes; the master take was number 3. It was remixed on February 25. George Harrison played the distinctive phrase on guitar; Floyd Cramer played it on piano for the original. Unterberger praised the Beatles' version in his review, saying: " "Ringo Starr faithfully [replicates] the unusual drum rhythm and high-hat crunches. Lennon's vocal, however, added a tortured pain not present in Alexander's model, particularly when he wailed in his upper register at the conclusion of the bridges. The Beatles' backup harmony vocals, in addition, were superb, and more effective [than on Alexander's version]." " Music critic Ian MacDonald had a different view of Lennon's vocal, saying it sounded like "a passionate youth grappling with a man's song." The Beatles recorded "Anna (Go to Him)" on June 17, 1963 for the BBC radio show Pop Go the Beatles. The show was broadcast on 25 June. They recorded it once again on August 1, 1963 for the show broadcast on August 25. As noted in many references including Mark Lewisohn's 'Beatles Recording Sessions', Lennon had a bad cold which accounts for his very rough, almost strange tone he demonstrates on all his vocals during this historic session, including the last song, Twist and Shout. Recorded February 11, 1963 Lyrics: Anna, you come and ask me girl To set you free, girl You say he loves you more than me So I will set you free Go with him (Anna) Go with him (Anna) Anna, girl, before go now I want you to know, now That I still love you so, But if he loves you more, Go with him All of my life I've been searching for a girl To love me like I love you oh now But every girl I ever had breaks my heart and leaves me sad, what am I, what am I supposed to do Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Anna, just one more thing girl You give back your ring to me And I will set you free, go with him All of my life I've been searching for a girl To love me like I love you But let me tell you now But every girl I ever had breaks my heart and leaves me sad, what am I, what am I supposed to do Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Anna, just one more thing girl You give back your ring to me And I will set you free, go with him (Anna) go with him (Anna) You can go with him girl (Anna) go with him
