Rain by The Beatles
“"Rain" was the b-side to "Paperback Writer" released in 1966. Many people seem to think that music videos began with Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" in 1975! Well, here's The Fabs proving once again, they were there first. These videos, along with other Beatles videos at the time, sparked George Harrison to say, "So I suppose, in a way, we invented MTV." Ringo has been quoted as saying this was one of his favourite performances on a Beatles recording - we both agree! There's an awesome bass-line from Paul in there too. These things, together with the first use of recorded tape, both being slowed down and played backwards, makes this a big favourite with us both.”
