re: No piano!!!Listen carefully to the US mono mix of the song, as indicated in the "Recording History" section of this page. During the bridge, during the lyrics "I love her more, till I walk out that door...", the piano is heard distinctly. This is not the mono mix available on "The Beatles In Mono," but as heard on the original mono US "Something New" album, today available on "The Capitol Albums, Vol. 1" CD box set.
re: MrI agree with Mr. Gates above. I'm compiling a Beatles instrument spreadsheet and this song is a dilemma for me. Your logic makes sense up to Mr. Gates' point above. George would've had to play Paul's 1962 Hofner 500/1 bass upside-down. I play guitar/bass and I know it's possible, but is that really what they did for this song??
I love the detail in your website by the way. Very well done.

re: Any GenreMy greatest inspiration was my Father. Always on the go and never tired. Always took care of his family and never let us know if there ever was anything going on or things were bad in our family. I never did without even when there wasn’t anything, we never knew it. He was always busy and took care of everyone before himself right up till he couldn’t take care of himself anymore but made sure we fulfilled any of his prior obligations. I took care of him till he passed and it was probably some of the most extordinary wonderful times in my life to REALLY get to know my Father and loved listening to his stories growing up, his life on the farm, and when he was in the Navy.

re: Three part harmony & John does both lower and higher harmony on main verseDr. Royer,Thank you for the great tips on getting to sleep and mattress needs. I have one of your water based pillows and I love it! : ) It definitely helped get rid of cricks in my neck that I used to experience. I love your humorous “clap off” exit. Thanks for the healthy tips!
