Valora este álbum

1 es un álbum de The Beatles, publicado en 2000 por Apple Records. El disco incluye 27 canciones, entre ellas «Love Me Do», «From Me To You», «She Loves You» y «I Want to Hold Your Hand».

Lanzado en el año 2000 para coincidir con el 30 aniversario de la disolución de la banda, 1 es un álbum recopilatorio de The Beatles con un concepto simple pero arrollador: reunir en un solo disco todas las canciones de la banda que alcanzaron el número 1 en las listas oficiales del Reino Unido o de Estados Unidos. El resultado es una colección de 27 himnos inmortales que trazan la increíble evolución de la banda, desde el Merseybeat de sus inicios hasta sus obras maestras psicodélicas y de rock. "1" se convirtió en un fenómeno comercial sin precedentes, convirtiéndose no solo en el álbum más vendido de la década de 2000, sino en uno de los más vendidos de todos los tiempos, demostrando el poder intergeneracional y la atemporalidad de la música de The Beatles.

Contexto y creación

La idea del álbum fue concebida por el entonces presidente de Apple Records, Neil Aspinall. El objetivo era crear el recopilatorio definitivo, un único disco que contuviera los éxitos más grandes y reconocibles de la banda. La regla de incluir solo los números 1 de EE. UU. y el Reino Unido le dio al proyecto un criterio claro y objetivo. Todo el material fue remasterizado digitalmente para la ocasión, ofreciendo la mejor calidad de sonido disponible en ese momento. El proyecto fue una colaboración entre los tres Beatles supervivientes y Yoko Ono, en representación de John Lennon.

Elección del repertorio

La selección de canciones es un viaje cronológico a través de la historia de la música popular. Comienza con "Love Me Do" (1962) y termina con "The Long and Winding Road" (1970). Es una colección impecable que incluye todos los hitos de su carrera: "She Loves You", "I Want to Hold Your Hand", "Yesterday", "Eleanor Rigby", "Penny Lane", "Hey Jude", "Come Together" y "Let It Be", entre muchas otras. La única crítica que recibió la selección fue la omisión de "Please Please Me" (cuyo estatus de número 1 en el Reino Unido es objeto de debate) y la icónica "Strawberry Fields Forever", que solo llegó al número 2.

Lanzamiento y cifras

"1" fue un éxito comercial de proporciones históricas. Fue el álbum más vendido de 2000 y 2001 y el más vendido de toda la década. Ha vendido más de 31 millones de copias en todo el mundo.

Recepción crítica

La crítica aclamó el álbum como la compilación de grandes éxitos perfecta. Fue elogiado por su concepto claro, su impecable selección de canciones y su excelente calidad de sonido. AllMusic lo describió como "posiblemente el mejor y más completo álbum de grandes éxitos jamás lanzado". "1" no solo fue un éxito comercial, sino un evento cultural que introdujo la música de The Beatles a una nueva generación en el nuevo milenio, demostrando que su legado es verdaderamente eterno.

We can work it out. Life is very short, and there's no time, For fussing and fighting, my friend, I have always though that it's a crime, So I will ask you once again. Try to see it my way, Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong, While you see your way, There's a chance that we might fall apart before too long.

    In the town where I was born, Lived a man who sailed the sea, And he told us of his life, In the land of submarines. So we sailed on to the sun, Till we found the sea of green, And we lived beneath the waves, In our yellow submarine. We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, And our friends are all aboard, Many more of them live next door, And the band begins to play. We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, And we live a life of ease, Everyone of us has all we need, Sky of blue and sea of green, In our yellow submarine. We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
  16. Eleanor Rigby2:06

    Letra

    Ah, look at all the lonely people. Ah, look at all the lonely people. Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been, Lives in a dream. Waits at the window, wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door, Who is it for? All the lonely people, where do they all come from? All the lonely people, where do they all belong? Father McKenzie, writing the words of a sermon that no-one will hear, No-one comes near Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there, What does he care? All the lonely people, where do they all come from? All the lonely people, where do they all belong? Ah, look at all the lonely people. Ah, look at all the lonely people. Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name. Nobody came. Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave. No-one was saved. All the lonely people, where do they all come from? All the lonely people, where do they all belong?
  17. Penny Lane2:59
    vídeo del tema Penny Lane
    In Penny Lane there is a barber showing photographs Of every head he's had the pleasure to know. And all the people that come and go Stop and say 'Hello'. On the corner is a banker with a motorcar, The little children laugh at him behind his back. And the banker never wears a mac In the pouring rain - very strange. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and meanwhile back In Penny Lane there is a fireman with an hourglass And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen. He likes to keep his fire engine clean, It's a clean machine. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, Four of fish and finger pies In summer meanwhile back Behind the shelter in the middle of the roundabout The pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray. And though she feels as if she's in a play She is anyway. Penny Lane, the barber shaves another customer, We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim Then the fireman rushes in From the pouring rain - very strange. Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, There beneath the blue suburban skies I sit, and meanwhile back Penny Lane is in my ears and in my eyes, There beneath the blue suburban skies... Penny Lane!

    Lady Madonna children at your feet Wonder how you manage to make ends meet. Who finds the money when you pay the rent? Did you think that money was heaven sent?

Lady Madonna children at your feet Wonder how you manage to make ends meet.

  23. The Ballad of John and Yoko2:59

    Letra

    Standing in the dock at Southampton Trying to get to Holland or France. The man in the mac said you've got to go back, You know they didn't even give us a chance. Christ! You know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be. The way things are going, They're going to crucify me. Finally made the plane into Paris, Honeymooning down by the Seine. Peter Brown called to say, You can make it OK, You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain. Christ! You know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be. The way things are going, They're going to crucify me. Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton, Talking in our beds for a week. The newspapers said, say what're you doing in bed, I said we're only trying to get us some peace. Christ! You know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be. The way things are going, They're going to crucify me. Saving up your money for a rainy day, Giving all your clothes to charity. Last night the wife said, Oh boy, when you're dead you don't take nothing with you but your soul Think! Made a lightning trip to Vienna, Eating chocolate cake in a bag. The newspapers said, She's gone to his head, They look just like two Gurus in drag. Christ! You know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be. The way things are going, They're going to crucify me. Caught the early plane back to London, Fifty acorns tied in a sack. The men from the press said we wish you success, It's good to have the both of you back. Christ! You know it ain't easy, You know how hard it can be. The way things are going, They're going to crucify me.

    Something in the way she moves Attracts me like no other lover, Something in the way she woos me. I don't want to leave her now, You know I believe and how. Somewhere in her smile she knows That I don't need no other lover. Something in her style that shows me. I don't want to leave her now, You know I believe and how. You're asking me will my love grow, I don't know, I don't know. You stick around now it may show, I don't know, I don't know. Something in the way she knows And all I have to do is think of her, Something in the things she shows me. I don't want to leave her now, You know I believe and how.

    The long and winding road that leads to your door, Will never disappear, I've seen that road before It always leads me here, lead me to your door. The wild and windy night that the rain washed away, Has left a pool of tears crying for the day. Why leave me standing here, let me know the way. Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried, Anyway you’ll never know the many ways I’ve tried, but still they lead me back to the long, winding road, You left me standing here a long, long time ago. Don't leave me waiting here, lead me to your door. But still they lead me back to the long, winding road You left me standing here, a long, long time ago Don’t keep me waiting here, lead me to your door Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..
