When was the beatles song a day in the life invented?

Answer 1

Tara Browne (an heir to the Guinness fortune who died in a traffic accident, and was an acquaintance of The Beatles), Richard Lester's movie How I Won the War (starring Michael Crawford and co-starring John Lennon), getting up in the morning and falling asleep on the bus (the smoking section was upstairs in the back), and four thousand potholes in the roads of Blackburn, Lancashire.

Answer 2

John Lennon sang "A Day in The Life"

He always had ideas about things he saw. It was said that he wrote that song because he saw a newspaper article and he decided to write this song!!

It is very touching, that song.

Answer 3

The song was recorded 01/19/1967-02/22/1967

"It was a reflection of my school days - I would have a woodbine then, and somebody would speak and I would go into a dream". - P. McCartney

"I wrote... that was co-written. The orchestra crescendo and that was based on some of the ideas I'd been getting from Stockhausen and people like that, which is more abstract. So we told the orchestra members to just start on their lowest note and end on their highest note and go in their own time--which orchestras are frightened to do. That's not the tradition. But we got 'em to do it. Actually, we got the trumpets to start on the lowest note, and the violins started a little later; violins tend to follow one another, they're like sheep. Trumpets are a bit more adventurous; they're drunk! Trumpeters are generally drunk. It wets their whistle." P. McCartney, 1984

"Well, it was a peak. Paul and I were definitely working together, especially on 'A Day In The Life' that was real... The way we wrote a lot of the time: you'd write the good bit, the part that was easy, like 'I read the news today', or whatever it was, then when you got stuck or whenever it got hard, instead of carrying on, you just drop it; then we would meet each other, and I would sing half, and he would be inspired to write the next bit and vice versa. He was a bit shy about it because I think he thought it's already a good song. Sometimes we wouldn't let each other interfere with a song either, because you tend to be a bit lax with someone else's stuff, you experiment a bit. So we were doing it in his room with the piano. He said, 'Should we do this?' Yeah, let's do that. But Pepper was a peak all right." -J. Lennon

One of less than twenty Beatles songs whose song title is never actually repeated in the song lyrics.

"Once we'd written the main bit of the music, we thought, now look, there's a little gap there and we said oh, how about an orchestra? Yes, that'll be nice. And if we do have an orchestra, are we going to write them a pseudo-classical thing, which has been done better by people who know how to make it sound like that - or are we going to do it like we write songs? Take a guess and use instinct. So we said, right, what we'll do to save all the arranging, we'll take the whole orchestra as one instrument. And we just wrote it down like a cooking recipe: 24 bars; on the ninth bar, the orchestra will take off, and it will go from its lowest note to its highest note." -P. McCartney
