[edit] Promo film
I remember growing and watching on Captain Kangaroo a what you would now call video for Yellow Submarine. It was animated but I know it didn't come from the movie. Does anyone else remember this? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Daventhalas1 (talk • contribs) 00:26, 4 March 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Words in between?
Between the verses there are some words from what sounds like a train station, or something. being swedish I can't help but notice a bunch of swedish words uttered. Does anyone know what it's all about?

That is interesting because being Slovak, I can definately hear someone say "Mozte mi vylizat" as the last sentence of the spoken part, which means "You can lick my [whatever]" in the Slovak language.
[edit] Key?
What key is this song in? F-sharp major? G-flat major? Neither? Anton Mravcek 19:40, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
What is the difference between the two keys?? Georgia guy 00:16, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- For starters, one is the key in which the manuscript of the song is written in, the other one is not. (Or maybe both keys are used in the manuscript, or neither. I don't know, that's why I ask).
- More generally, wateva, ask some woodwinds players, some fiddlers, some guitarrists, which of those two keys they prefer. The wind players will probably say G-flat, while the guitarrists will probably say F-sharp maybe and G-flat no way, except perhaps with a cheater fret. Anton Mravcek 21:55, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

- A harpist would prefer Gb, unless you want the music to sound muted.

- Getting back on topic: I took this song out of the listing for both keys. If someone wants to put it back in, they better check the manuscript of the song first. "Easy piano" arrangements don't count. Volunteer Sibelius Salesman 19:24, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

The song is in G-flat. The guitars are playing in G, tuned down a half-step. In addition, the complete Beatles scores has it in G-flat. weirdo
[edit] Bar Rumors?
I heard rumors that they came up with this song because they were all drunk in a bar called "The Yellow Submarine" and started singing the chorus, out of just plain drunkenness. Anyone else know anything about this? --ZacLOL (talk) 14:31, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
