I think they had similar voices.

It's George. No doubt. Also some people says that Devil In Her Heart was sang by John and not George. a-hard-days-night-george-5

 

For me, both songs are George. a-hard-days-night-george-10

I thought they all had colds when they recorded the PPM album, PLUS they'd been recording all day: could that explain George's raspiness?

I'm sorry if I've annoyed people on this thread; I had no intention of stirring up aggravation. a-hard-days-night-ringo-6 It was just an honest question.

No apology needed - as I said it was a very legitimate question. I was just laughing about another thread that is similar to this one and got way out of hand.

From Anthology:

'Do You Want To Know A Secret' was 'my song' on the album. I didn't
like my vocal on it. I didn't know how to sing; nobody told me how to
sing: 'Listen, do da do, Do you want to know a secret? do da do. Do you
promise not to tell...'

I suspect George was mimicking the style he'd heard the others use, before he found a voice of his own.

I think its George. Although it sounds like John, George's voice could sound like that as well as there's no point in switching out lead vocals for one line. idk maybe it is john but I'm still convinced that its Georgie

Yeah; the more I hear it and other people's strong opinions the more I think it's George… a-hard-days-night-paul-4 And yay for half-apples!

I don't care if it was John, Paul, George, Ringo, Mick Jagger, Kermit the Frog or Winston Churchill.

The instrument has yet to be invented that can measure how much I don't care.

Is it possible to care less than nothing? If so I care ten times nothing.

I just don't want to go through another debacle like ADitL: John v. Paul. That was just too painful and ridiculous.

It is to painful Zig. The thread had a resurgence in your absence.
