The lyric "watching her eyes and hoping I'm always thereis contrasted by For No One 's "no sign of love behind the tears", which happens to be a later track on Revolver . What are our thoughts? Does this seem like a coincidence or am I not reading too far into this?

very interesting take that I quite like-- i never though of that before, how For No One could be a follow-up in a storyline involving HTE.

I think you've stumbled on something quite brilliant here, @thasboy .

 

HTAE: "Each one believing that love never dies"

FNO: "A love that should have lasted years"

 

HTAE: "I need my love to be here"

FNO: Still "you need her", but "she no longer needs you". Heartbreaking!

 

Here, There And Everywhere was written "with Jane Asher in mind", while For No One was written "while McCartney was on holiday with Jane Asher" according to @Joe 's articles. a-hard-days-night-paul-7

Another way For No One comes off as the follow-up to Here, There, And Everywhere is the arrangement. On HTAE, you have lush harmonies and the progression goes up from G to Am to Bm to C but on For No One , it's just Paul with Ringo on drums and Alan Civil on French horn and it goes down from B Gb/Bb Abm Gb E G B.

If you're reading this, you are looking for something to do.

Here, There And Everywhere is me and my dog's song, so For No One can't be the followup song. We are soulmates and our love never will die. We are going to leave this earth as one.

I've always liked this song, but someone pointed out the structure (possibly in McCartney 3, 2, 1?) where the first verse is "here", the second is "there" and the third is "everywhere" and that made me fall in love with it.

More recently I've been thinking about the third person in this song (someone is speaking), and the fact that it *really* sounds like he saying "watching their eyes" (both times). It occurred to me that there could be another pattern in the verses: I, both, each (1, 2, 3).

My hot take is that after the Beatles split they went down the paths of spiritualism, solipsism, alcoholism, and Paul McCartney

Just unveiled in the last few minutes, Trunk Animations new video for Giles' remix:

Listening right now, and it seems to me that this song captures the true beginning of Ringo's mid-period  accumulation of a particularly sensitive, melodic style of drumming, like he employed on "Something " or "Sun King " or "A Day In The Life ", using really resonant low toms and whispery ride cymbal

I consider Here There Everywhere the perfect love song to ever exist, Not to flashy and lustful just slow soothing gentle and softpaul-mccartney-thumb_gif.

In on a very short list of transcendent love songs. Probably a song or two off Pet Sounds could accompany it. Dylan has so many facets to his love songs, it's hard to think of many that encapsulate the purely positive aspects of love. Dylan and Lennon often focus on the juxtaposition between the pain they feel and the relief their love brings. McCartney and Brian through his lyrical collaborators often like to focus on the joyful, heavenly sensations that love brings. This isn't always the case but Wouldn't It Be Nice and Here There And Everywhere sure feel they capture "the good kind of love" as Brian says.
