One of the only Beatles songs where the cover version is perhaps better than the original.

@Ringolero Reggae music is the African heartbeat nurtured inna Jamaica.

Heavenly sound. Apart from Esther Philips cover of 'And I Love Him' (which Lennon himself preferred to his own) this is undoubtedly one of the few examples of a Beatles number being elevated. Raising the song to another level.
Just... celestial. My Mum's name is Rosslyn too, so that adds to the love for me...
Thanks for providing this. Peace.
classic rendition, best version yet as the Paragons are better singers than the Beatles. i might be an 80's baby but this takes m'eback to my youth. sends shivers up my spine. Reggae music is the african heartbeat!
