The first time I heard this song when it came out in the summer of 1967 , I was sitting in my home with a friend . I was 17 years old . We listened to the song and thought my god how different this is than anything we ever heard . I looked at my friend and said “ hey you know what ? , I bet the Beatles will be around for ever or at least their music will anyway “. Now I’m 71 and here we are still listening .

Pink Floyd started after the Beatles, but were already performing by the time the Beatles did Strawberry Fields. Pink Floyd formed in 1965, initially as an R&B cover band, and got increasingly psychedelic over the course of 1966. They released their first single in March 1967. Pink Floyd's first producer, Norman Smith, had previously worked as a sound engineer on early Beatles records. John Lennon wrote Strawberry fields in late 1966, while on a break from the Beatles to film "How I Won the War," and the band released the song in February 1967. The Beatles were well plugged into the London club scene at the time, and may have been aware of what the Pink Floyd were doing on stage, but they didn't meet one another until March 1967.

Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields were the only songs finished. They were released as a double A side single. With Strawberry Fields. Everyone thought the Beatles keep it a secret.

This is my favorite reaction to Strawberry Fields Forever. You got it in real time; seemed to process the novelty of one of the most novel compositions in our lifetimes. This is one of my favorite songs by the Beatles, and I've looked at many reactions to the song. I've liked some, but you seemed to take in a lot more than most at the first listen, and I find that satisfying as a Beatles stalwart, having grown up with them as the background music of my life. It certainly struck me as novel when it came out and I was eleven years old.

This song was recorded between November and December 1966, it's a John Lennon song and took 55 hrs to record which is a record to this day for a song by far. They didn't have the technology in 1966 for this recording, a lot of stuff had to be worked out. I'm not gonna get into it but you can easily research it, the song is one of the most iconic recordings in history. Also research the meaning of the song, it's deep. I would suggest his last big interview with Playboy Magazine December 1980 issue released only a week before he was shot to death on December 8th 1980. He'll tell you all about its meaning. The instrument you heard is a mellotron which was a new keyboard at the time and used here for the first time in the history of recorded music. The Beatles were just too cool. John Lennon was taking LSD at this time which you can hear in the song. This song is as weird and wonderful now as it was back in 1967. Put on some phones and give it a listen. ☮️

"The instrument you heard is a mellotron which was a new keyboard at the time and used here for the first time in the history of recorded music." @Doug Susie - no, not quite. While the instrument was first developed in England, that was in 1963, and it made its way into several recordings long before "Strawberry Fields Forever" 4 years later. After appearances in several promotional tours by pianist Geoff Unwin on TV and radio (where it was recorded many times), the first mainstream musician to use it is considered to be multi-instrumentalist Graham Bond (of the British jazz/blues band The Graham Bond Organisation) with it featured on few singles and an album in '65. The first UK chart hit with a mellotron was Manfred Mann's "Semi-Detached Suburban Mr. James" in Oct. of '66. "SFF" simply brought the mellotron to prominence in '67 with that opening flute line.

George Martin was probably the best producer the Beatles could ever have. But as far as the creative and experimental drive in the group that was all Lennon and McCartney. Martin deserves great credit for bringing Lennon and McCartney‘s ideas to fruition. But Can you imagine George Martin coming in to the studio and saying hey we’re going to do backwards vocals and guitar on I’m only sleeping what do you think boys? Would never happen. Check out the music from other George Martin produced artists. Very conventional, traditional radio friendly tunes and only moderately successful.

Yeah that's a landmark song of all time I think it's one of the most important Beatles songs once you've listened to it over and over again you'll understand what I'm talking about but it had such a eerie are to it somehow I mean I remember when it first came out cuz I'm an older guy and it was funny we had this made who worked for us she was from Oklahoma And she'd have her little transistor radio on and she is waiting for her daughter to pick her up and she say what does that mean Brian? Strawberry Fields Forever? there are so many things about this song are you wouldn't believe how many things to unbox there are two different sessions one was done and a different key in a different Tempo and the other was done in a different key in a slower Tempo or whatever but when you said one of them up or slowed one of them down they matched perfectly and John like the second part of an earlier version and the first part of a you know a later version and they put them together and they matched up perfectly because won the temple was different one that it was lower and key or whatever it was that shooting was different but they matched perfectly because when they explode this one down and it was in the same key and it was in the right Tempo cuz it's slowed the tempo down whatever it was just amazing it was a miracle did it even happened at all the way I did so Strawberry Fields was a little Refuge it was an orphanage in John used to go there and jump over the wall and just hang out because it was a like a sanctuary for him but the ironic part is is when he was a teenager in high school he would come home late and his aunt was his guardian and he would get pissed off and say if you don't act right start being more proper and coming home at the right time perhaps I should just have you sent to Strawberry Fields so another words she was going to disown him and then have him dumped off at the orphanage so you know John feeling like such an outsider it was like come on everybody let's all go to Strawberry Fields cuz we're on the outside looking in where The Outsiders where the Misfits you know but it's all right we can accept ourselves the way we are you know it's all good that way yeah there's a lot of philosophy in there my good friend told me one time he said one of the lines which is quote I think I know ofThee ah yes but it's all wrong that is I think I disagree" his take on that particular praise is that it's talking about religion or God or Christ or whatever but that it's not necessarily so what was libel to be in the Bible . You should do as she said she said that could be your next song you might like that one it's an interesting tune because they were out in Hollywood and Henry Fonda's son Peter Fonda was that this party where the Beatles were hanging out and I guess Peter Fonda was high on LSD and he started ranting to John Lennon and that's what this song is about Peter is the girl that he's referring to in the song he always has Alter Egos and different things just like Sexy Sadie that's actually referring to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi because of the things that he found out about him which he wasn't too pleased with whatever you know yeah he was I guess flirting with some of the young girls that were there are at the ashram hey everybody's human whatever I still say everybody should meditate it's such a powerful miraculous thing anyhow all right I went on too long at again sorry good reaction so I'll take you on the next drop I just love seeing somebody hear a song for the first time that's is legendary is this one

The Paul is dead rumor first surfaced years later, in 1971, I was somewhat involved in it, and showed a lot of Paul is dead hints to a friend, Lou Yeager, who was more into Elvis than in The Beatles. Lou called Alex Bennet, a NYC AM radio jock, and a few weeks later, Lou was quoted (with my hints) in Life Magazine. Some Paul is dead hints are straight forward. but others require changing the record's speed, or risk damaging the record by playing it backwards (as on Revolution #9). I avoided such foolishness by manipulating the music with my mono and stereo reel-to-reel tape recorders.

This and many other songs on this album were earlier released as 45's. They came from the same sessions as the earlier album Sgt Pepper, but were released in advance of Sgt Pepper, to find out if the public was ready for this style of Beatles, and the public loved it. You were talking during the very end and missed John Lennon's Paul McCartney is dead hint, where Lennon said "I buried Paul". There are a number of such recorded and visual hints on several Beatles Albums up to and including Abbey Road. No,, Paul is still not dead. I believe the keyboard at the beginning of Strawberry Fields is a Mellotron, a primitive sampled sound keyboard that used 88 tape loops, one for each tone on the keyboard. I think there is a Mellotron seen outdoors near a tree, in the film Magical Mystery Tour. I was 16 when Strawberry Fields first hit the AM radio stations. Around that time, 1967, FM first began broadcasting rock in the USA, at least in NYC, but many people were still listening to AM. Also, all Beatles Albums were released as Mono and as Stereo until the White Album. The Mono versions were the ones played on AM, and were not quite the same mix as the Stereo versions, and generally were reduced in time, to satisfy the needs of the very commercial AM stations.

It wasn't "to find out if the public was ready". Recording "Sgt. Pepper's" was taking longer than expected, and a single release was needed/due, so this and "Penny Lane" were released. And, in fact, Lennon said, "Cranberry sauce". The "hints" were coincidence. What happened is thatt "The Beatles" often used Britishisms, Liverpudlianisms -- in "Penny Lane" the line, "Coral fish-and-finger pies" (female genital) -- that were "odd" to US fans, who tried to figure out things that were simply coincidence. The "Paul is Dead" HOAX -- intended as a joke -- arose out of that fan foolishness. Once "The Beatles" heard of the foolishness, Lennon, especially, threw in bits of nonsense for them to "figure out".

The "stereo" versions released in the US, until "Sgt. Pepper's," were FAKE "stereo". And the British "stereo" releases until that LP were PRE-MIXED MONO. The recordings were made in a specific way as the STANDARD: all music on one track, all vocals on the other track -- and then mixed to MONO for AIRPLAY, which was MONO.

You're not dumb, you're just young and werent around then. But all their albums are and probably will be around forever, so just listen to all of it. Your life will change with each song you hear . Listen to the end of this song again. You started talking too soon and missed it when John says : "Cranberry sauce". Why did he say that? John was very playful, so after strawberry fields he just added cranberry sauce, what else ? By the time he said it the tape was turned off and winding down, so it came out low and descending .

@@decadantdog4444 But the content & lyric is entirely about Lennons childhood. SF was a Salvation Army children's home, "living is easy with eyes closed" refers to the sheltered existence of the children in its care, while "no-one I think is in my tree" references the trees in the grounds of SF that Lennon & his friends used to climb. "Nothing to get hung about" harks back to an even earlier time, when SF (before the house was built) was the site of gallows where convicted criminals were hung. There are several other, more subtle references throughout the song also.
