I've owned MAC's "PLEASE ME" for several years by now. I always like it as a lipstick I would grab every now and then. It used to reside in my lipstick drawer, but I didn't use it as much, since sometimes it applies a bit funny (a bit uneven, when my lips get dry and flaky). My one true love is Estee Lauder's Potent (310), but the company discontinued it. That's when I started searching for a decent dupe. I've tested every possible one I found on Temptalia's dupe list, but some of them are also discontinued. And one day, I just thought "Why don't I just use "please me" to see if it compliments this eye makeup?" and it all came together. Those two lipsticks may not look identical in the tube, but on my lips are almost the same colour (potent is a bit warmer and lighter-nothing I can't look past). Ever since that day, it lives comfortably in my everyday makeup bag, ready to be used and cherished whenever I get to go on a night out. It definitely isn't an everyday shade (one I would wear to work or a morning stroll with friends) but it's perfect for a night out, paired with brown smokey eyes, to brighten up the makeup and make it look fresh and youthful. Just use some lip balm to hydrate before applying it and you're ready to go.
This Pleases Me
Please Me is one of MAC's underrated permanent items (of which there are many!). It's a great basic item to have - pink but not bright, neutral but still noticeable. The matte finish pairs excellently with this shade - in my opinion the finish is what makes this shade sing. This is one of my staple products. I have almost used a whole tube and will buy another when I use it up.
Please Please Me is the debut studio album by The Beatles, released in 1963. It is best remembered for the hit singles "Love Me Do" and "Please Please Me". Fan favourites such as "I Saw Her Standing There", "There's A Place" and the cover "Twist And Shout" are also present on this album.
It may or may not sound like it to modern ears, but no British band in 1963 had ever recorded anything this wild. Lemmy from Motörhead used to go and see the early Beatles, and he considered them "the gear" and a better live band than The Rolling Stones.
Mr. Fremer, you have outdone yourself on this review. As someone else mentioned, you did a fanTAStic job of giving us a sense of being there in the room and putting what you were hearing/experiencing into words. I'm not sure I have ever heard you write in so emotional terms, as opposed to merely intellectual ones.
It's hard to describe the kinds of differences one FEELS about hearing CD (and to me, any kind of digital) compared to good analog playback. I have gotten shrugs from certain audio engineers who don't get this.
context is everything and you paint the whole experience. It sounds like you aren't sacrificing, completely, a social weekend and invited some friends over for some serious fun. Makes me wonder which I would have prefered. I am confused though, now, by the reference to a tape copy. I was under the impression that these lacquers were cut directly from the original master reel of assembled album tape that was used to create the first original lacquers, just as the first issues would have been. Is there a new generation inserted for this project? Can you clarify? Thanks
Please Please Me master tape is unusable for cutting because the glue from the splices is all over the tape and is a threat to the tape heads. This tape was copied track by track to assemble a new cutting master. Mono Masters (and, IIRC, Magical Mystery Tour too) was cut from new tape copies because there are no original cutting masters for this title. For safety reasons, they decided to assemble the cutting masters for these LPs by copying the original masters. And by the way, they used digital transfers, not tape copies, to evaluate EQ settings etc. before cutting the lacquers from the analogue tapes.
Outstanding coverage, as we've come to expect here on Ap, nice work Mikey. You aren't making the wait for my own personal box any easier, except for the fact that I'm just that much more confident that this was a good purchase decision. Missed the bullet on the stereo box and do hope the reception of this mono box will help leave an indelible mark to how future work on vinyl should be offered to us. It is a great time to still be into vinyl.
I'm looking forward to sharing this unexpected present with some friends. Remembering what it was like to have everything in front of us. Remembering what it was like to have all the time in the world but no money. Instead of the reverse, like now.

The single was released in the UK on 11 January 1963 and reached No. 1 on the New Musical Express and Melody Maker charts. However, it only reached No. 2 on the Record Retailer chart, which subsequently evolved into the UK Singles Chart. Because of this it was not included on the multi-million selling Beatles compilation, 1. 2ff7e9595c
