Beautiful version--they did it even better live than they did on the recording. Paul sounds nervous, though; he's stuttering through the introduction. :( I <3 Paul!!

@scdevon Agreed, The Beatles was the sum of its parts. However, I think you misunderstand their playing abilities: they all played the parts they were required to for the music they composed. George was shamefully undervalued - as guitarist and writer - within and outside of the group. But to describe Paul or Ringo as average! By what measure? Within their band they were the only suitable people for those roles. Same with John, who was not a virtuoso guitarist but was a marvellous musician.

It should be clear to anyone watching this clip that George Harrison was the musical glue that held the band together. By his own admission, John Lennon was a lousy guitarist and often "played" live with his rhythm guitar either turned way down or unplugged completely. Paul was an average bass player. Ringo was an average drummer at best. Their talents all blended beautifully, though.

what a beautiful song!!! I love it!!! thanks!!!

Yes, All of todays acts can't touch them. And at 20 years old George playing that lead totally unheard of. As a musician, to us they were playing chord progressions in ways nobody even thought of. We were still playing three chords in those days, and we thought we were cool....yea right!

You could put all the top acts in music today together in front of an audience and they couldn't do this. This song makes you see how those talented geniuses went from "Please Please Me" to "Yesterday."
Crazy Talent. Lovely.

Incredible how much the live version sounds like the studio version but coming from the Beatles I'm not at all surprised!



Never SAWR them at all...gotta dig that accent. Great song, and George was smooth on that solo.

does anybody else notice he seems a little bit out of breath 0:10-0:20 then he starts signing and its like perfect breathing, i'd like to believe signing is more natural to him than talking,. its the only explanation for such wonderful sounds... -Laura age:14(:
