Ahhh Girl queried thoughtfully 
Silly Girl, how do you work the phrase “but it’s my pride” into the meaning of the song going along with the idea that the woman is dead?

Oh, is that what he says there? I wondered… a-hard-days-night-paul-4

*takes sentimentalist hat off* 

Sounds like John’s feeble attempt at a rhyme for ‘…by my side’ to me. george-martin

When singing this song (as I have more than usual lately, what with reading The Scarlet Letter and that), I like to can’t help but sing 

Yes  It  Is,

This could have been (still could be?) a great cover for Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton & Linda Ronstadt to do.

Now today I find, you have changed your mind

Yes It Is takes me back to the days of collecting singles. Until SFF/Penny Lane you would never hear a B side played on the radio. It would always be a surprise when you flipped the A side over and in this case a good one. I love the fact that I Need You was also recorded at this session. Being the Beatles, there was always a bit of mystery to accompany any release. In this case it was the 8 Arms To Hold You reference.

If anyone ever asks for proof of John’s ability as a singer, make sure Yes It Is is on your list. a-hard-days-night-john-1

It’s very beautiful, and one that makes me enjoy John’s voice and also reflect on his life as a whole. What a talent!
