Hi everybody!
At first, I wish you all a very merry Christmas. Peace and love to everybody!
I chose Getting Better to make a new video. It was recorded and filmed in my living room again. I played every instrument and sang all the voices.
Hope you enjoy!

I'll appreciate to read your comments.
Thanks for watching.

That's pretty good actually! Love the video as well. A pity this song was never played live by The Beatles.
I think you're playing it a bit too fast and that gives the performance a haunted feel. Try to find the right speed and I'm sure it will sound even better.

Bobber, thanx for the comments.
You're right about the speed. Actually, that was intentional. I tried to approach the speed of the new radio hits. Something close to the Green Day So I welcome the old fans and also the kids who are starting to hear the Beatles now or never heard.
But it eventually happened to such a "haunted feel". Bass ended up losing much of its beauty. In the original recording, it seems that Paul plays with pauses, silence and sound alternating creatively and tastefully.
Still, I believe that if they recorded this song today, instead of 1967, they could also feel the need to increase speed. Or not ... hehehe
Again, thank you, pal

Here is the audio in mp3: http://www.4shared.com/audio/PjNF4JN3/Rodrigo_Antunes_-_Getting_Bett.html (http://www.4shared.com/audio/PjNF4JN3/Rodrigo_Antunes_-_Getting_Bett.html)
The sound quality is much better than the video track.

So you were attempting to sound like The Beatles AND Greenday at the same time? Mission impossible if you ask me. ;D
