Yeah, that part of the song provides some insight into the young Paul McCartney's attitude towards women in general (and Jane Asher, in particular).

The sections that Lennon wrote also reflect a definite impatience with women.

It's still a great love song, but not an entirely nice one.

Where's the compromise? Where's the reality, maturity?


You miss the point, some of the lyrics are exposited. Listen to the song as a whole to get the global meaning.

No, I do not like it. Kept thinking "There must be something wrong with my connection to RP. Right? This can't really be as bad as it sounds."

Right. Human relationships have undergone a massive paradigm shift. These lyrics are so far from reality. ... Give me a break, dude. No, the lyrics are just fine for today and will be fine in 50 years.

Good lord. Slavish Beatles cover for the FAIL.

Like the shot-for-shot remake of "Psycho". What's the point?

I love him as host of "The Amazing Race."

Copy-cat version. Went from a 7 to a 3.

I gotta give him a 7 just for having the balls to cover the fab four.

Got my attention. The bridge and orchestration need work (odd key) but a 7 overall for faithfulness to source material.

Not too bad, but not much new here either. I usually prefer covers of classics to try taking a different tack.

Nice interpretation. I'd like to hear it again before I decide if it's a keeper.
