Sorry Frightwolf, I can't see Italian in GIRL at all.

And MICHELLE? French name - well, I know a few Michelles, none of whom are French. French words? Uh-huh - school French. And the sound - FRENCH-ESQUE! You're putting me on ...

Then you need to listen to some more Italian.

I don't think you could be more wrong, on both counts. But you think the same thing about me!

Aren't opinions wonderful?

Darn straight! I think you're dead wrong on the Italian thing -- I'm telling you that there's Italian in Girl.  

But hey, it's being kept civil -- always cool.  8)

No need to reiterate. I know your view. Saying it again doesn't make me think, "Ah you might be right". I can't hear Italian (whatever that means). That's that.

Yes, always cool to be civil. We agree there, FW.

Too subtle for me. I wonder if civilities came to an end in your post just there? Hmmm ...

Italian in Girl I see as a Greek-esque kinda thing when there is the (Instrumental) refrain section.

Love BLEAT in Michelle indeed Ydoll. It's still a song. That school french you refer to was Macca only about 23 at the time fitting in syllables whatever way he could. You could interpret that the naive french may have given the song extra charm. The extra frenchiness comes from the accordian. ;)

I'm with Ydoll on this one. I've always found Michelle embarrasing. it's just too sweet and trite for me, and nearly ruins Rubber Soul for me.
As for Girl - well I guess you hear what you hear, but it don't sound either Greek or Italian to me. I need more convincing.

I must admit I do not relish singing any of those songs. I am not an ecstatic fan of them, but they don't deserve such a slating IMO. Not forgetting that they still had to appeal to everyone including the ladies. They were transforming so much during this time and trying things out.

You got it right. That's some kind of a Greek guitar playing..even the Michelle intro, it's Greek.

I love Michelle..used to sing it when i was a little boy..

Italian? Greek-esque? What on earth does that mean?!

The naive French ruins the song - forget "extra charm". The melody is good, and the song is well-played, BUT ...

Greek-esque means about as mush as French-esqe! I quote from you which after i looked back further now realise it was a FW post. Italian? I was referring to FW's opinion. Just a bit wierd you can't see the french angle in the music. It seems glaringly obvious. Parisienne cafe bars etc.

You've been watching too many travelogues about France, I think! ;D

The ordering of Rubber Soul is utterly perfect. I grew up with Rubber Soul (it was the very first CD I owned) and thus I know the tracklisting inside out. The only song that strikes me as nondescript as Wait, but I like its position between the lovely In My Life the mini-epic If I Needed Someone.

If I had to get rid of two songs, I would choose What Goes On and Run For Your Life.

I agree with GL, I'd remove What Goes On and Run For Your Life.

Side One
Drive My Car
Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)
You Won't See Me
Nowhere Man
Think For Yourself
The Word
Michelle

Side Two
Day Tripper
Girl
I'm Looking Through You
In My Life
Wait
If I Needed Someone
We Can Work It Out

Day Tripper now opens Side Two, while We Can Work It Out closes Side Two.
