P.S. I LOVE YOU

P.S. I LOVE YOU
Джон Леннон и Пол Маккартни

As I write this letter, send my love to you,
Remember that I'll always be in love with you.
Treasure these few words till we're together,
Keep all my love forever.
P.S. I love you. You, you, you.

I'll be coming home again to you, love,
And till the day I do, love.
P.S. I love you. You, you, you.

I love you.

P.S. I LOVE YOU
P.S. Я ЛЮБЛЮ ТЕБЯ
(JOHN LENNON/PAUL McCARTNEY)
Записана 11 сентября 1962г.
Раннее творчество "Битлз" четко делится на композиции, которые музыканты сочинили цо "Please Please Me", и вещи, сделанные после нее. "P.S. ILove You" была написана Маккартни в начале 1962 г. и по стилю немного напоминает "Love Me Do" и "Ask Me Why". Во время исполнения вокалов в середине песни Пол переходит в верхний регистр, демонстрируя свое искусство пения. Как и "Ask Me Why", композиция вошла в альбом благодаря тому, что незадолго перед этим успела появиться на обратной стороне сингла.

ЗЫ: Я ТЕБЯ ЛЮБЛЮ
Джон Леннон и Пол Маккартни

Вот я пишу тебе письмо, шлю всю любовь тебе,
И ты помни, что я влюблен в тебя навечно!
Сбереги эти три слова, пока я далеко!
Сохрани мою любовь на века!
ЗЫ: Я люблю тебя…тебя….тебя…

Я скоро опять к тебе вернусь!
А пока я далеко, лови эти слова:
ЗЫ: Я люблю тебя…тебя…тебя…

Я тебя люблю….

P.S. I Love you композиторов Johnny Mercer / Gordon Jenkins, написанная в 1934 году. В числе исполнителей Билли Холидэй, Фрэнк Синатра.

Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra, Los Angeles Studio Sessions,

Dear, I thought I drop a line
The weather is cool
The fooks are fine
I'm in bed each night at nine
PS I love you

Yesterday we had some rain
But all in all I can't complain
Was it dusty on the train
PS I love you

Write to the Brown's just as
soon as you're able
They came around to call
And not burn a hole in the
dining room table
Now let me think; I guess that's all
Nothing else for me to say
And so I'll close, but by the way
Everybody's thinking of you
P.S. I love you

А Джон предлагал такую версию происхождения песни. Ее муз.основы.

That's Paul's song. He was trying to write a Soldier Boy like the Shirelles. He wrote that in Germany, or when we were going to and from Hamburg. I might have contributed something. I can't remember anything in particular. It was mainly his song.

Интересно, что традиционна для эстрады (джазовой) тех лет и тема песни и некоторые джазовые аккордики, предложенные Полом:

The young Lennon and McCartney would often introduce what might be considered incongruous sounding jazz chords into their very early compositions (almost certainly McCartney's influence, as he was the more advanced musician at this early stage[6] ) as is the case here inserting C#7 (on "write") between the chords G and D in its opening chorus.

Поллак пишет что в песне все фигово - банальна недописанная лирика, аранжировка, возвращавшая к записям на Декке. Все кроме того самого до диез септа!

"P.S. I Love You" is ultimately an ironic blend of both backward and forward looking influences. On the one hand, the relatively soppy lyrics and the pop arrangement are reminiscent of their cover repertoire from the Decca audition period. By the same token, there's a technical sophistication here, especially in the harmony and uneven phrasing, which looks well beyond many of the other apparently more original songs from the early EMI days.

так шо про происхожение "сильнейшего" до диез 7 он готов рассуждать часами. Все равно никому ничего не понять:

The strangest chord of all in the song is the dominant seventh chord on C#, employed in the intro as a surrogate "V." The naturally occurring chord on C# in the key of D is a diminished seventh chord and that VII chord works nicely as a substitute V because it is the sonic equivalent of the V7 chord with the root note missing. In modifying the C#-diminished chord into a dominant seventh, the Boys throw us a curve ball in that you'd sooner expect the latter chord to resolve to the key of F#. Against all textbook rules and logic, they rely on the stepwise movement of all voices (C# -» D, E# -» F#, G# -» A, and B -» A) to make it "work." Still, coming right at the beginning as it does, it's an attention grabber.
