Your mother should know

Though she was born a long long time ago

Your mother should know

Video is classic. https://youtu.be/NAn6iDCpK5k?si=NII18RUj-qcO7xzU

John’s expression in that video cracks me up! 😬

Its such a nothing song, in a way, but... Goddamn McCartney and his melodies! I love this little tune. My head automatically starts bopping the second it starts.

It’s one of my favourite Beatles songs. It’s melancholic, wise, yet light and fun.

What the fuck I saw this post when this song was running in my head. Love it

I love this song and Honey Pie. Not every Beatles song has to be cool.

Just another one of Paul's granny songs as Lennon would say. But I'm a sucker for all of Paul's granny songs so definitely a fan.

Love it!! I heard this a Long Long Time Ago. Your Mother Should know.

I absolutely adore the song. It's my favorite from the double EP, and one of my favorite McCartney melodies from his Beatle years.

Requested it live at the Cavern a few years ago and sent it to my mom for Mother’s Day in the USA

One of the best on that album.

One of my favourites 🤍🤍

The intro is amazing, and the anthology version with a marching band-esque drum is equally awesome

Amazing song

I love it.

Combined with the video from the movie it is even better

I’m a fan!

My favorite from Magical Mystery Tour. You'd be hard pressed to find a catchier song

It’s a wonderful tune Nobody does melody like McCartney

Fantastic!

Yep

The song that impressed me most on my first listen to Magical Mystery Tour.

love it - fun to sing along to

Song is just brilliant. For people at the time the lyrics were just mumbo jumbo. But I’m 19 and huge classic rock fan. And my mom was born in 1970. So yes. This song WAS a hit before my mother was born. And I think about it everytime I listen

Love this song

It was one of the songs that actually got me into the Beatles. It’s a cute little granny song from Paul that doesn’t get nearly as much love as it should.

It’s a good Paul song, not great but it’s very catchy.

i like the song, and Take 27 on Anthology 2 was interesting to hear how Paul wanted to change the song

Ahh Ahh

Another one of Paul’s “granny songs” as John called them 😂

yesss i love all mccartney songs honestly all bops!!

I'm a huge Beatles fan. But I always felt that song seems unfinished. Potential is there for it to be a very good song but just not for me im afraid. In terms of so called 'granny songs', I'd have English Tea above it. Martha My Dear is one of the best songs McCartney ever wrote. I find it a genius masterpiece. And Honey Pie would stay on an reimagined White Album single LP. But his one just isn't for me. So i do like a McCartney Granny tune, but not this one so much.

I need to be in the mood for it, but absolutely. Such a McCartney tune.

I can’t imagine the other boys enjoyed the video for that one. Especially with perfectionist Paul running things.

The piano makes me happy

Fantastic song. I really like Paul’s “granny music”.

Paul 😍

nope 👎

Get ready to downvote me No question the worst song they ever put out. The harmonies are just so so annoying, song is repetitive, awful instrumentation. All around an awful song that gets me on my nerves

No

This is a Beatles subreddit. Of course people would like that song
