The sad thing is that I didn't know this was a cover of a Beatles song, I didn't know this until I looked up the song while watching I Am Sam (which was meh.)
The first time I heard this version of this song I was a kid, in the shittiest dead end job. And at this job I used to stare out the window like a sad little cockney orphan hoping to god that a pack of ninjas would bust through the windows and doors and the ninjas would take off their masks and it would be the Beatles and we would ninja flip into the sunset. One day, this version came on while I was staring out said window...it was the first and last time I didn't want the ninjas to come.
This is a great cover of one of my favorite Beatles songs. Perfect harmonies and a very respectful treatment of a song that always makes me melancholy for the different women no longer in my life, and friends no longer on this earth. One of the best Beatles covers I've ever heard.
This is a nice version. However, what I like about the original is that Paul and John are harmonizing live- there is no overdubbing. This version is just a little too "polished" and doesn't have the same spirit as the original for me.
I love the cover, well done by those two! ;-) Almost as good as Sarah McLachlan's version of "Blackbird", also from I Am Sam... Great soundtrack there =) Thank you for putting this on here, got some very nice footage there too =)
Yeah, it's a tough call....better than the original?....I think so...It gives me an extra level of goosebumps, so I think it is better on a visceral level.
Why can't people just appreciate the rough Liverpool accents? Hell, I'd prefer anything to 'X-Factor' style singing. I tell you, if someone like Lennon or Dylan has to go on X-Factor to get famous in the 60s, no WAY would they be famous. This is over produced bollocks, not performed from the heart of the writer, and not how it should be presented.
a very good cover but the original is the best! Mc Cartney and lennon! it doesnt get any better sorry!it takes more than a nice harmony to make up for the lack luster backing track they bought of ebay for $5's......... Harrison, lennon, Mc Cartney! people they were the futre, they were the past.....
What a sweet and beautiful video you made for this song! I love how the different worlds come together towards the middle of the video. These glimpses are like moments of encapsulated joy in nature and go perfectly with this song
this is the only movie thats madee me cry so muchin my life. i couldnt watch it again it was too much for me.. damn man.. so good! i like the funny ducks in the begining true love
Many thanks for posting. I have been looking for ages for this version......The original Beetles version brings back many memories and this is a brilliant cover
I saw a live performance of Aimee mann this past summer at folk festival in Vancouver and she sounded great.Really,thanks for the insight on this album,no idea where i've been:)
yep, married in 1997. i noticed on the soundtrack of "hard eight" that the tone of her music had changed a little, she definitely seemed happier. good for them.
If you are ever bored perhaps you'd like to come on over to my channel and explore the video project I've been doing for the past year and a half. Don't know if you would like it, but you like this song, which means in my mind you have respectable musical taste :)

I didn't think it was possible to cover a Beatles song and do it justice, but these two have absolutely succeeded. And with excellence nonetheless.

This is a cover of a classic Beatles tune. Not exactly country, but I get what you're saying.
