If I Needed Someone

Another early George Harrison number where the musicianship far exceeds the quality of the lyrics. The message of this song: I'm already involved with someone, but leave your number and maybe you'll get sloppy seconds. Unfortunately, it's a perfect companion piece to John's misogynistic "Run for Your Life," which follows this song on Rubber Soul and which stains an otherwise nearly perfect album.
