A real "beanfest," as one British music writer put it -- a Paul McCartney ego-trip all the way (complete with scat-singing), but a truly worthy one. It's huge and sprawling and never fails to move one emotionally; when Paul appeared on "Saturday Night Live" and was asked to sing it at rehearsal, he had to be prompted to remember the lyrics and then proceeded to move all nearby listeners to tears. When you see The Beatles' original video of the song, you'd never guess it was being performed by a group that was starting to splinter.
