It's the point of the whole song. It's a bit coded but this was the fifties.. Twisty little girl twists so fine.. In response to above comment: "What a great song, Me an my friends even listen to it.. Never thought young teens would attempt to listen to something that doesnt involve love, sex, money.. But anyways, I <3 this song! [=" album | Reviewer: me | 9/12/09 the whole album Please please me was recorded in one sitting and by the time twist and shout came around to sing, he couls hardly get a note out and it came out sounding all raspy, and john hated it, but after it became a hit he loved it! just so you all know the truth. Twist &+ Shout! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/7/09 Ha, i heard this song in Ferris Buelers Day Off.. I started breakin it down LOL.. What a great song, Me an my friends even listen to it.. Never thought young teens would attempt to listen to something that doesnt involve love, sex, money.. But anyways, I <3 this song! [= Beatles! | Reviewer: L.O.A | 2/3/09 This is one of the best song ever! Not one can say that beatles are non-original or bad! Because the beatles are the beatles... the best band in history! I <3 them.. And La bamba (or what tha fuck it is called) Is not the same song like this! sorry.. yaaaaaaaaaay | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/18/09 the song "la bamba" was the original , but the beatles made it their own . i was watching the beatles anthology , a full 10 hour documentary , and yeah , john lenon's voice grows hoarse , but it sounds nice :P . Twist and shout | Reviewer: Mani | 7/22/08 I first heard this when this my friends knew brought a guitar round and twenty of us were sat on the floor singing along. It was totally amazing -just this guy and his voice with a guitar singing and us following along, its just such a feel good song, makes you want to get up and give it a good twist and shake!! Love This! | Reviewer: T.C. | 6/24/08 This has to be one of my favorite songs on the album, not only for its sound, but also for the fact that this was recorded all in one take! John Lennon had a bad cold all through the recording of Please Please Me, so when it came to do this last song, he only had enough to do one take. If you listen closely to certain sections of the song, you can hear his voice going slightly hoarse. It's such an amazing recording, it really has become a Beatles original! Actually... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/6/07 The Isley Brothers were not the original recorders of this song, they were the first cover, from Wiki: ""Twist and Shout" is a song written by Phil Medley and Bert Russell. It was originally recorded by the Topnotes and then covered by Isley Brothers and was later covered by The Beatles," Awesomes!!! | Reviewer: PaulLover!=)Lol | 11/14/07 I bloody love the song, the vibe it gives off when sang is AWESOME!!! Its hella kool, should be heard by all. Cover Song | Reviewer: R&R H of Fame Inductee | 9/23/07 It's not too surprising that only one reviewer even mentioned The Isley Brothers as the originators of "Twist & Shout". I love the Beatles--such originality and freshness will likely never hit the airwaves again in my lifetime. However, it WAS an original song by the Isleys, and covered early on by The Beatles, before they began their historic and prolific songwriting and recording. That same reviewer was very nearly correct to say that it is now a Beatles song, because anything the Beatles recorded became more popular than the original. For example, the very beautiful love song "Til There Was You" was not one of their's. Thanks for reading this and long live R&R---JMS Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2
