Always hated the song.  Boring and mundane.  It doesnt do anything.  More noise than music.

Actually I’ve just clicked on the link and that’s not the original mix.  The one on the album is pretty much him and guitar.  This has a lot of discordant and irrelevant sounds superimposed on it. To no good effect.

The video also isn’t very appropriate for it. The song is contemplative and almost like a meditation, the video is a lot of fast cutting to old Beatle clips which don’t match the tempo or mood of the music.

Give me the original version any day..

I liked the video more than the song.
