the guitar in wild honey pie is pretty high pitched and weird and i want to point out some 90's music that i hear being real similar. i wonder if anyone in the beatles ever really thought to just mess around turning their distortion up to see what happens or if they had some idea of what their influence would do to weird indie rock that spawned from punk music. like i wonder if there is any secret info on were the beatle's just one trick pony's. with playing a song like wild honey pie or john lennon's cold turkey or did they have some idea of what they would do to music of the future with people creating more distorted influences of their work, like punk and alternative/indie.. i dunno, cold turkey is a great song and matches the intensity of punk and even indie rock music i can think of, but i would say a lot of tunings similar to open blues tuning can sound like the parts in the songs i'm gonna use as examples... i would think the beatles did some whacky noise shit that they never released.
here's a song that was made by some kids when they were teenagers that i think is legitimately better than anything the beatles wrote. the guitar at 1.20 is really messed up like wild honey pie, but most of the song is just pretty nice pop guitar.. i dunno.. it's not really peaceful, so i get why beatles fans wouldn't like this or the other song i'm gonna review.. i'm just thinking, the beatles legitimately could've secret tried turning up their distortion, and said "the world isn't ready" or "doesn't really need this" at the moment. i dunno, maybe they were just busy making new music in the pop trends of the time and they never really thought to do stuff that would be modern.. i dunno watching the beatles movies and from what i've seen of their personalities aside from their music, they are jokers, so i don't see why they wouldn't've wanted to crank up the distortion while messing around and just totally freak out...
here's a song that reminds me of wild honey pie... this song is like totally gone wrong. i'm pretty sure it's about heroin withdrawl and global warming. not too sure on that, just my interpretation. this is the song that is a great example, if you tune to open blues tunings, crank up the distortion and bar the high pitch notes of the guitar, you'll probably be able to find some blues tunings that sound between this and the high pitch parts in that band that was on jimmy kimmell that mom's freaked out about - knocked loose, their high pitch guitar any way. there are bands that use the high pitch parts a lot more than them i could list though. just something people might know..
i know oasis is often linked to the bealtes. i've said the short career of the band polaris that did the music for the pete and pete show is better than the beatles with how the beatles sound positive a lot of the time. most of the music i'm listening sounds more what i'd consider "gone wrong" than the beatles". polaris the pete and pete band doesn't really have that. i think it's kind of better than the beatles... the eels kind of remind me of the beatles... but something like gin blossoms doesn't really remind me of the beatles.
people say the beatles are super influential, some more than others. pretty sure they just used common song structures and most music would exist aside from the beatles, but generally i think everyone has heard the beatles, so the beatles becomes a huge influence.. like some stuff might not exist with out the beatles, but i'm guessing music would be very similar. punk and indie rock and everything would exist the same i'm pretty sure.
i dunno, i just think if being weird and doing "wild honey pie" was all the beatles had going for that weird high pitch sound and they couldn't incorporate that into a better pop song, i think they were kind of weak, unless they could and the world just wasn't ready for it.
