All Together Now: Every Beatles Song Played at Once

in Music | December 1st, 2011 7 Comments

The idea is simple, really. Take every Beatles tune, all 226 of them, and play them together, sequencing them so that they end at the exact same moment. And here’s what you get. The Beatles as you’ve never heard them before … and may never want to hear them again.

    That’s so psychedelic. I love it!

    I clearly heard them say “Paul is dead” at 7:34.

    Seriously, I like how it ends the way ‘I Want You’ ends, it’s The Beatles right up to the outer limit.

    Now play it backwards. I am sure it sounds like, ‘the Beatles are the Rolling Stones in drag’.

    Inspired by your, er, art, I have spent the morning placing all my furniture on top of each other. I now have an unusable pile of crap that the Tate Modern has offered me 2,000,000€ for.
    Couldn’t have done it without you.

    I found your site via ZITE. The Beatles All Togther Now audio portion I cannot figure out how to hear it. I don’t see any link or icon to tap via iPad to listen. Where does one go to hear this?

    Thanks!
