This Saturday, YouTube Music will premiere an exclusive, one-time broadcast of the 1968 animated classic,\u00a0Yellow Submarine<\/em>, as a global, Sing-A-Long event. The film\u2019s restored Sing-A-Long version, featuring the timeless music of The Beatles, includes song lyrics at the bottom of the screen for the world to sing along to. The film will stream live on\u00a0The Beatles\u2019 official YouTube channel<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>on Saturday, 25 April at 4PM Dublin Time.<\/p>\n

The whimsical animated feature stands as an innovative pop-art classic, brimming with peace, love, and hope. Directed by George Dunning, the film was inspired by The Beatles\u2019 music, and featured a variety of material from the Fab Four, including the title track, \u2018Yellow Submarine\u2019, off their 1966 LP,\u00a0Revolver<\/em>. It also offered four previously-unreleased tracks, including \u2018All Together Now\u2019, \u2018It\u2019s All Too Much\u2019, \u2018Only A Northern Song\u2019 and \u2018Hey Bulldog\u2019, all of which were officially released on the band\u2019s tenth studio album, 1969\u2019s\u00a0Yellow Submarine<\/em>, which also served as film\u2019s soundtrack.<\/p>\n

Yellow Submarine<\/em>\u00a0also includes many other Beatles favourites to sing along to, such as \u2018Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds\u2019, \u2018When I\u2019m Sixty Four\u2019 and \u2018All You Need Is Love\u2019. As John Lennon pointed out in a 1980 interview,\u00a0Yellow Submarine<\/em>\u00a0can be enjoyed by Beatles fans of all ages. \u201cI think it\u2019s a great movie, it\u2019s my favourite Beatle movie\u201d, shared the icon, adding that his son, Sean Ono Lennon, \u201cLoves it now, all the little children love it\u201d.<\/p>\n"}],"block_type":"image-content","thumbnail_size":"height-2","image_thumbnail":{"ID":753,"id":753,"title":"Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised","filename":"Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised.jpg","filesize":145705,"url":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised.jpg","link":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/music-news\/the-beatles-sing-a-long\/yellow-submarine-still-web-1000-optimised\/","alt":"Beatles","author":"3","description":"","caption":"","name":"yellow-submarine-still-web-1000-optimised","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":752,"date":"2020-04-23 10:19:43","modified":"2020-04-23 10:19:50","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1000,"height":600,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised-300x180.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":180,"medium_large":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised-768x461.jpg","medium_large-width":525,"medium_large-height":315,"large":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised.jpg","large-width":525,"large-height":315,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised.jpg","1536x1536-width":1000,"1536x1536-height":600,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised.jpg","2048x2048-width":1000,"2048x2048-height":600,"twentyseventeen-featured-image":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised.jpg","twentyseventeen-featured-image-width":1000,"twentyseventeen-featured-image-height":600,"twentyseventeen-thumbnail-avatar":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Yellow-Submarine-still-web-1000-optimised-100x100.jpg","twentyseventeen-thumbnail-avatar-width":100,"twentyseventeen-thumbnail-avatar-height":100}},"display_tag":false,"related":false,"tag_color":"","meta_description":"","social_share_image":false},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/music-news\/752"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/music-news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/music-news"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=752"},{"taxonomy":"category_post","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/umusic.ie\/backend\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/category_post?post=752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
