When I joined the Club nearly 3 years ago, MLT had 14 songs with one million views. I watched the count go to 20 which is when I started this thread. Their now at 21 with 3 in the cue in the next 30 days or so. “Nowhere Man” will be the second song released AFTER I joined the Club that hits 1,000,000 views. “Please Mr. Postman”, released shortly after I joined is their third most viewed song.

All My Lovin’ at 700,000 views, that’s awesome. I like all the videos from their first show.

[Jung Roe]

MLT’s Please Mr Postman has amazing pull! Just watched the video again tonight, and it’s absolute magic. Mona and Lisa’s harmonies are perfection. 3.8 Million views, on it’s way to 4.0 Million in short order.

John, Paul, George, Ringo and Karen, your versions were awesome, but I’m sorry Mona and Lisa leave yours in the dust! 😜

And that’s pretty much it, although we’re probably about a month and a half from Here, There and Everywhere reaching 1,000,000 views, and two months from If I Fell reaching 3,000,000.

David, after watching “She’s a Woman” on the first day of release I didn’t notice until a week later that it was well passed 100,000 (currently at 170,000 on day 16). Now I see that “She Loves You” is at 122,000 on day 3. What do you think made these two get so many more hits after their initial release than most MLT new releases? Do most of their subscribers have a strong preference for early Beatles tunes?

[David Herrick]

Hi, Lynn.

It’s fun to speculate, especially with the recent glut of releases, as to what causes some new MLT videos on YouTube to catch fire relative to others. Certainly Beatles covers as a whole get the most views. Beyond that, the hottest ones seem to me to be either mega-hit singles such as She Loves You, or well-loved album tracks that aren’t covered much such as She’s a Woman. Of course, as a whole the Beatles’ early stuff is more amenable to being performed live. And I’m sure most subscribers aren’t club members and therefore haven’t seen these videos before at all.

But yeah, She Loves You is on a record pace so far!
