00:00Are you filming now?
00:02They're in perfect synchronisation.
00:04I'll do it.
00:05I bet you can hear your own voice.
00:06It's the late zone.
00:07Hello.
00:08How you doing, Ringo?
00:10I'm alright.
00:16We were just like, we're in America.
00:19America.
00:20It's great being here in New York.
00:22Okay.
00:23Washington.
00:24Oh, is that the place?
00:25I don't know, Washington.
00:27I'm just moving so fast.
00:30They wanted to know everything about America.
00:32The food, the groups, the dancing.
00:35And they loved it.
00:37It was like being in the eye of a hurricane.
00:39It was happening to us and it was hard to see.
00:43They were the first white group that I'd ever heard in my life.
00:46Say, yeah, we grew up listening to black music.
00:48We think they're just great.
00:50Especially their hairdo.
00:51I think there's something very strange about it
00:53and at the same time something very sick.
00:55My sister had the radio on and I heard the Beatles.
00:57It's like total darkness.
00:59And then the light comes on.
01:00I was like, oh my God.
01:02Something for us.
01:07If we could get the camera down on this mic, it'd be a real laugh.
01:10How about God?
01:11Defy convention.
01:14I think the craziness was going on in the world and in the band.
01:18You know, we were kind of normal and the rest of the world was crazy.
01:21Everybody got into the mania whenever the Beatles came to town.
01:26When we came, it was quite shortly after Kennedy being assassinated.
01:30Maybe America needed something like the Beatles
01:33to be lifted out of sorrow.
01:36The elixir that they put together is so profound.
01:39It wasn't just about the songs.
01:41It was the power of music to transform lives.
01:44The girls crying.
01:45They ain't falling out.
01:47Who they crying for?
01:48What do you like about the Beatles?
01:55Do you just like the Beatles because they're English?
01:57I think we're English.
01:59I think we're jolly English, actually.
