Help! I need somebody Help! Not just anybody Help! You know I need someone Help! When I was younger so much, younger than today I never needeed anybody’s help in anyway But now these days have gone, I’m not so self-assured Now I find I’ve changed my mind and opened up the doors Help me if you can, I’m feeling down and I’d do appreciate you being ’round Help me to get my feet back on the ground Won’t you please please help me And now my life has changed in, oh, so many ways My independence seems to vanish in the haze But every now and then I feel so insecure I know that I just need you like I’ve never done before Help me if you can, I’m feeling down and I’d do appreciate you being ’round Help me to get my feet back on the ground Won’t you please please help me When I was younger so much, younger than today I never needeed anybody’s help in anyway But now these days have gone, I’m not so self-assured Now I find I’ve changed my mind and opened up the doors Help me if you can, I’m feeling down and I’d do appreciate you being ’round Help me to get my feet back on the ground Won’t you please please help me Help me, help me, ooh Ringo Starr : drums & percussion George Harrison : lead guitar, harmony vocal Paul McCartney : bass, harmony vocal John Lennon : rhythm guitar, lead vocal Released in 1965, ‘Help!’ was the title track of the Beatles’s second, first in colour, full-length film, of the same name. Not only the song but also the film was a smash hit in the UK as well as in many other countries, giving the Beatles yet again another number 1 that topped the charts for weeks. In those days, the Beatles not only suffered from hectic schedule but also too much concern from the fans all over the world just way too much which allowed no personal life nor privacy at all, and in later years, John would be heard in interviews that, despite the energy and vitality felt from both the song and the film, he was subconsciously crying for help which was directly reflected in this song. Incidentally, the ‘Help!’ heard on this music video is the famous Shea Stadium live version in 1965. 1965 년에 발표된 ‘Help!’ 는 Beatles 의 두 번째 정규작이자 colour 로는 첫 번째였던 동명 영화의 title track (주제곡) 입니다. 영화와 이 곡 모두 영국은 물론 세계 각국에서 공전의 hit 를 기록하였음은 물론이고, 이 single 역시 수주간 각종 chart 들의 1 위를 장식하였습니다. 이 즈음, Beatles 는 살인적인 일정은 물론, 세계 어디를 가도 수많은 fan 들의 지나치게 많은 관심에 시달릴 수 밖에 없었기에 개인적인 삶은 물론 privacy 마저도 전혀 보장되지 않는 상태였고, John 자신이 후에 수 차례의 interview 들에서 말하기를, 비록 이 노래 및 영화로부터 느껴지는 재기발람함에도 불구하고 마음 깊은 곳으로부터 도움 (help) 을 요청하고 싶은 마음이었으며, 그러한 마음이 이곡에 그대로 투영되어 있다고 밝히기도 했습니다. 참고로, 이 music video 에서 들을 수 있는 ‘Help!’ 는 저 유명한 1965 년의 Shea Stadium live version 입니다. ‘Help!’ is available on the following CDs: Help! - album version The Beatles 1962-1966 (Red) - re-mastered album version The Beatles Anthology 2 - Blackpool live version The Beatles : Number 1 - digitally re-mastered album version The single version of this song, which has different vocal tracks, is available on ‘The Beatles : The Singles Box’ (22 CDs).
