The Beatles - Birthday flac album

Birthday" is a song written by Lennon–McCartney and performed by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1968 double album The Beatles (also known as "the White Album"). It is the opening track on the third side of the LP (or the second disc in CD versions of the record). The song is an example of the Beatles' return to more traditional rock and roll form, although their music had increased in complexity and it had developed more of its own characteristic style by this point.

Birthday was a straightforward song to record, and all four Beatles contributed. Backing vocals were added by Pattie Harrison and Yoko Ono, and all – including the group's assistant Mal Evans – recorded handclaps. The effects heard towards the song's end, and in the 'I would like you to dance' section, were created by a piano microphone fed through a guitar amplifier with effects added. Based around a standard blues structure, Birthday contains one of McCartney's finest vocal performances on the White Album.

Written by Lennon and McCartney in the studio, largely on the spot off the top of their heads. Paul was the main songwriter, coming up with the riff and most of the lyrics. The song is a riff-based straightforward rock and roll piece that went on the opposite direction of most Beatles songs of the time. Pattie Harrison and Yoko Ono provide backing vocals.

Peter Griffin from Quahog, RiAnother one of the best Beatles songs off the White Album. This beats that junk they sing for your birthday every year. Ben Dirks from NijmegenAbout 25 years ago there was a TV series with Bruce Willis as a detective with a blonde female colleague who were always quarreling with each other. I forgot the title of that series; it was their two names I think. in one episode the song BIRTHDAY is sung a capella in their office to one colleague by all others who sing that guitar riff and the melody. Anybody remembers that?!? Ozzy from Fresno, Cahey the fist time i heard this was when i got the white album for my b-day.
