@@jnagarya519 It is just my opinion. I feel most casual music fans who know a decent amount of Beatles songs have never even heard of this song...Rolling Stone magazine rated it as the 63rd greatest Beatles song ever; i feel it is at least a top 30 Beatles song ever. I feel it is the best song on the "White Album", while most critics and Beatles fans would say "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is, which to me is "overrated" (but still a good song). Just a few reasons of why i think Dear Prudence is underrated. 😊

The Beatles released the "Hey Jude" single on August 28th, 1968. The White Album was released on November 22, 1968. They did not release a single when the album cane out in the U.S. or in the U.K. But in lots of other countries "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" was released as a Beatles single when the White Album came out. It was a huge hit in those countries and went to #1 in Australia, Austria, Germany, Japan, New Zealand and Switzerland. A group called Marmalade released the song in the U.K and it shot right to the top of the charts. In Austria... the Marmalade version went to #1 and then The Beatles version (which was released after Marmalade's version in that country) replaced it at the top of the chart. In Switzerland... The Beatles version was at #1 and Marmalade's version was at #2 - at the same time. "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" was the most requested song on radio play in the U.S. off the White Album. It was a HUGE hit song..... deservedly so. It's detractor's are just a bunch of silly Willies (with the Philly band). And it is also silly that some of the other Beatles "hated" it because they spent too much time working on it. The group had way more takes on some of John's songs than on "Ob-La-Di" (and some of George's songs as well). So that argument really doesn't hold any weight.

I went to a concert in NYC back in the 70's and we wound up taking a bus into the city because it was snowing pretty hard. After the concert, we ducked into a bar because our bus wouldn't be leaving for hours and it was freezing. We wound up at the Metropole, bar that used to be a jazz club and was now a strip club. We had no idea, it was the only thing open close to the Port Authority. The dancers were so lethargic until this song came on. I'll never forget it. They began to smile and laugh and had the best time dancing to this song.

This song was even voted as worst song ever in some poll (which shows that people don't know much about music, there are lots of "worse" songs I can think of). Besides, as we all know, taste is subjective! Just enjoy it, it's fun fun fun! (It is true the other Beatles didn't like it. Paul made them record it time and time again until everybody was fed up with it. In fact, its distinctive piano intro was played by John, who returned to the studio after having stormed out and yelling "I'm stoned out of my mind and this is how this song should sound", and proceeded to play the intro we all know).

Liking is entirely subjective. Everyone is free to like and dislike what they want. For the purposes of this video, though, let's assume that when we use the word "like" to mean, "appreciate" "understand" and "rate highly". "Beatles Purists" don't like the song? "Beatles Pretentious Snobs" is the term you're looking for. The same people don't like Yellow Submarine and Octopuses Garden because they think they are simple, childish songs. I okay in a Beatles cover band and I can tell you that all three are more challenging than they first seem. If you can't appreciate the complexity and difficulty of making a song sound easy and simple, it's best not to comment until you do.

I don’t think any of them hated the song, they just didn’t like how Paul was never happy with the takes and made them work on it for ages. They were frustrated, so John played the piano intro in a fit of anger and Paul loved it. And because John was in one of his Paul dissing moods in an interview in the early 70s, the fawning music journos jumped all over it and it became cool to not like the song. But it must have been pretty popular because it was a number 1 fit for Marmalade!

I like it!. I think its like one of my earliest Beatles songs i can remember from childhood. Recently , i decided to listen to the White album and when this came on i turned it up and thoroughly enjoyed it. John Lennon didnt like it, but i read somewhere he kinda "saved" it cuz he sped up the tempo of the song and thus it sounded better.

John and George obviously had fun with this song. Listen at the 2:50 mark-- Paul sings "children lend a hand" and then you can here George shout "arm!" and John shouts "leg!" its one of the few songs on this album that everyone played together on.

How can you have a song written, sung, played and recorded by the Beatles and it not be “pure” Beatles?

This is the first Beatles song I remember hearing for the first time, I believe in 1985 when I was 6 years of age. My second grade teacher played the guitar and he played this song to our class multiple times.

I am a Beatles fan of over 50 years from my early childhood. I have always loved this song. Its just sooo Paul the family man. Contrary to common belief John DID like the song and even came up with the very first little piano into. You must do other Paul songs from The White Album like "Rocky Raccoon," "I Will" (a 100 second long thousand carrot diamond) and definitely "MARTHA MY DEAR." It is such a sweet and nice song about Martha. Do the song and I will tell you who Martha was ... Its wonderful! Cheers, Harri and Thanks.

In the anthology it says John was getting high and was tired of Paul trying to make it a ballad when he finally got fed up and forced them to speed it up, hence the opening on piano. This is so widely know that the movie that thing you do did it when the drummer shades did it to jimmy at the talent show.

This is a freaking great little song. So happy and lively. We had a kid's TV show called Fat Cat, here in Oz. This song was the theme music 😅

This is a bit cheeky but a great reggae bit in the middle on Paul McCartney and Wings Live and Let Die. Yes I am dying to get your reaction to this one with its twists and turns. Live and Let Die-ing in fact lol

it's a great song.... it is joyful from start to finish, with lots going on... the other Beatles helped rescue Paul from his tendency to schmaltz, and this is a perfect example of that... like the elephant noises that seem to come straight from Max Fleischer Popeye cartoons

An acquaintance - perhaps a friend - of the Beatles often used the phrase "Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da," and Paul decided to write a song with it.

To this day, I can remember hearing Ob La Di Ob La Da and Bungalow Bill for the first time as a child. I used to drop that needle on the vinyl to get to these songs!

This is a very happy and up key song. It's bloody dynamite ! If you dislike this it's because you're miserable. Being happy is not cheesy, it's great. This is one of the Beatles masterpieces. Youre right, Harry . I guess to those people, She Loves You is a cheesy song, huh ? Watch this, I just found it : "PAUL MCCARTNEY ON OBLADI OBLADA' . He's talking to Howard Stern . You'll love it.

I love it. Was a number one for Marmalade (cover) as the Beatles never released it as a single.

Amusing (well, maybe) story: Back when the IMDB site had message boards, a group of us on the _Star Trek Original Series_ board would sometimes post song parodies based on various _Star Trek_ episodes. I did a parody of "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" for the episode "Whom Gods Destroy" with the refrain _"Queen to queen's level three, take your pawn, BRAH!"_
