“All Together Now,” is one of the Beatle’s top selling songs. Paul McCartney wrote this song, but since John Lennon had helped him write it, he gave partial credit to Lennon. The Beatles recorded the song in May of 1967, but the song was never released on an album until January 17th, 1969, on their Yellow Submarine Movie Soundtrack. The band performed the songs many times during their Magical Mystery tour. This song is one of the Beatle’s most top covered songs. Artists like Andre 3000, and the Muppets have covered this song. In 2011, Sprint Wireless used this song in their cell phone commercials.
McCartney’s goal for this song was to create a children’s song, which would be as fun and as upbeat as the song “Yellow Submarine,” which was released the previous year. For some people, this song reminds them of children playing. This song has no true meaning; the meaning is in the hands of the listener. What you interpret from the lyrics and the style of the song is what you will find as the meaning in your eyes. For the Beatles, this song was just a way to express their selves and have fun while playing music. This song is a great representation of some of the things the Beatles stood for.
"All Together Now" Lyrics
One, two, three, fourCan I have a little more?
Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, I love you
A, B, C, D
Can I bring my friend to tea?
E, F, G, H, I, J, I love you
(Bom bom bom bompa bom) Sail the ship
(Bompa bom) Chop the tree
(Bompa bom) Skip the rope
(Bompa bom) Look at me
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
Black, white, green, red
Can I take my friend to bed?
Pink, brown, yellow, orange, blue, I love you
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now

(Bompa bom) Skip the rope
(Bompa bom) Look at me
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
(All together now) All together now
