I heard it yesterday for the first time in awhile.  It is Paul's masterpiece, without a doubt.

Lots of things make me cry. I'm one of those people.

But the only beatles songs to make me cry are Yesterday and For No One

Classic! I love Paul's voice on that song. I'm listening to it right now.

I like the song,but I think it's both too repetitive and too short. He should have come up with more verses. It repeats itself too much-and yet it's over almost before it's begun. Whenever I hear it,I'm like it's over already? If I'm in a certain mood I love it. I think he should have kept the scrambled egg verses and added them on to the end to fill out the song a little more and stop it from being too serious.

Were the lyrics Paul wrote inspired by John's lyrics for Help! written a year earlier I think.  John said at the end of his life he'd wished he would have been able to re-record Help.  Perhaps slow it down.  Did Paul realize the deepness in the lyrics of Help and use it for inspiration in writing Yesterday?

I don't know. It's always hailed as a monumental breakthrough, some kind of maturing thing, but did the world really need rock and roll bands singing ballads set to strings? I for one hate the fact that the greatest R'n'R band in the world could well be remembered for this granny pleaser, and cue a hundred otherwise good hard rocking bands hitting the charts with totally out of character power ballads.
 
I think Yesterday is a bit of Pauls Frankenstein, and the monsters gonna get him in the end.
