As you turn on "Please Please Me", the intro track, "I Saw Her Standing There", will instantly make you want to dance.
The energetic love-song is a beautiful example of the Beatles when they're not "just" trying to make your acid trip better.
Whether that has to do with the fact that this was The Beatles' debut album, and as such written in a time, before they were too drugged up, or just because they hadn't really found their "place" in music yet, I can't tell you. But it is as beautiful as ever - The Beatles is one of the few bands that has managed to write beautiful pieces time after time after time.
Some of the love songs are about real love and what it feels like. Others are about heartbreak and misery. But no matter what, the beauty and energy is still there. You just wanna grab the nearest beautiful girl and pull her out on the dancefloor and spend the rest of the night with her, pretending to be rockstars.
But one thing, other than that The Beatles can motivate you and make you wanna dance, they're also a bunch of guys - and Lennon-McCartney especially - that can really sit down, think about what they are going to write, and make it come out exactly the right way.
This is definitely also the case with this 14 track album.
