I love the song for its musical aspects and while I feel that it has some kind of majestic or spiritual quality to it, I also see Kevins point about Paul being somewhat pompous with the whole thing. I almost get the feeling that Paul heard of thought up a decent little catch phrase and knew everybody would jump on the bandwagon because he was Paul McCartney and it was a Beatles song. Let It Be, just leave it alone, accept it, worry about yourself, be peaceful, etc,,,. Theres tons of things you can come with that plays within the context of those three words and people ate that stuff up at the time. Regardless of all that, I think the songs wonderful musically. Love the piano, thunderous drums, guitar solo (not so much the organ solo on the other version),and even the chorus. Great song composition wise in my opinion.
'You Know My Name' is kind of awful, but isnt that what they were aiming for in the first place with that song? If I never heard it again, it would alright with me.
