This came to light with a ex-friend of mine. He thought he was so cool. When I saw his selfish clever charade I bowed out of our friendship simply by disagreeing with him on his thoughts. He had lost control. He and his new wife stopped calling and visiting. 15 years later he called my father and told him he wanted me to be HIS BASS PLAYER in his newly forming band. I never answered him and never saw him advertise or play in a band. The only difference NOW is you're down there Tim. I'm looking through you Tim and you're a real nowhere man. theraputic! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/6/08 I think this song is a lyrical masterpiece, and unlike some do not find it a sad song but uplifting and full of optimism. It is the kind of tune that can perk you up and I even found the words galvanising when heartbroken! bo ho. As for the musical arrangement I have never found fault and feel that anyone who does is over analyzing and frankly up themselves Matt Reply to Salvador | Reviewer: lalalalicious | 1/14/08 Jeez, chill out, Salvador! Steven was just asking a question. There's nothing in Steven's review that sounds negative; he is only asking a question on the mechanics of the song. And at the time this song was released, it is very likely that Paul's voice is edited. The Beatles particularly liked to experiment with the sound of their music. It is actually an Fb chord, by the way. ;) Peace Out! sorry Steven | Reviewer: Salvador | 11/2/07 Steven- Paul isn't "up-pitched" at "disappearing overnight." Maybe you think this because he sings the phrase at a different pitch that "treat me right." However, the chords are different. He is singing over a Eb chord and, not surprisingly, sings an Eb. The "treat me right" is an Ab. I think the way they vary the chord progression here to make the transition back to the Ab of the verse is beautiful, as is the entire song. so true | Reviewer: qwerty | 10/29/07 i think in some way or the other all of us can relate to this song. when i listen to this song im reminded of a particular person or an incident. it kind of jolts you inside. it definitely has a lot of impact because its honesty. and although the lyrics are not poetically outstanding, they are very clever Pitch Shift | Reviewer: Steven | 10/21/07 I swear as Paul sings "disappearing overnight" he sounds mechanically up pitched. Does anyone else hear this? Almost robotic. what?! | Reviewer: Jim Chalker- Seriously? | 10/8/07 Jim Chalker, don't criticize The Beatles, or anyone for that matter. That's how they chose to write it. If you would have liked it better a different way that's fine, but don't say they "should have" written it a certain way. By the way, in your second paragraph, are you seriously trying to compare yourself to The Beatles in that you both write silly tunes? No. Just stop. And if their tunes are so silly then I guess the millions of fans they have are silly too. i like this song. | Reviewer: charlie | 9/21/07 I dunno what this songs about... but I like it. Its nice, it sounds relaxing and its a good toe-tapping song. Beautiful | Reviewer: J | 5/26/07 This is a great song, Rubber Soul is amazing. This song is actually about Jane Asher, around the time she and Paul started drifting apart. It's very sad and melodic. I just love it. Love it all!!!!! | Reviewer: Sally | 4/11/07 To start, I'd have to say the whole album Rubber sole rocked the wits out of me, I know a lot of people don't like it because they say 'oh the Beatles were doing drugs when they made this album and it shows' and 'oh I don't like the rage they put in their music' but regardless of all that I still can’t get over how it makes me feel when I listen to it. I love this song especially, from the moment I heard it I couldn't get the tune out of my brain. I love how it leaps from calmness to wildness, it's like I feel their anger--yes anger--while I'm singing along to the lyrics, and I can really connect and relate to that because I mean everyone gets angry everyone knows the feeling. So hands down this is definitely my favorite Beatle song, it may not be the most popular one that everyone remembers them for…but different tastes make this wide world of ours go round. I also have to disagree with Jim—although he did have a few nice points—I would fully recommend buying the Rubber sole CD if you’re really into the Beatles like me because it’s worth it, you only live once right.
