Yeah I hope you know what I mean, but I was wondering if you knew if it´s John or Paul?


They were the most brilliant, powerful, lovable, popular group on the planet...

I have always believed it was John.  Until recently, when it turns out to have been Paul (finishing his middle part).  Amazing how like each other these two could sound.

Hmm I guess it could go either ways.



Interesting.


I'd like to say thank you on behalf of the group and ourselves, and I hope we pass the audition.

Really?  Ever hear Let Me Roll It?

Fact is they sang so closely together in the early days that they had to follow each other's style perfectly, and did.  They both developed the ability to mimic the other.

I wish I had the reference to which it was proved to me to be Paul.  Believe me, I wasn't going to go easily, as I have assumed it was John since I was 14 when it came out.  SOmeone produced something that convinced me but damned if I can remember what.  Sorry about that.

So I guess you have to take what I say with a grain of salt.  if I come across it I will post it.

ohk, you win Charlie

I still like Johns voice better, and I'll take another listen to a day in life

John did have a distinctive voice, but I wouldn't say Paul couldn't do it.

Fact is we have no way to 'prove' it either way.  But what the heck, without definitive proof we can all believe whatever we want.

Hell, I also surmised that it was Paul up until the orchestra drowns him out, and when the ahhhh voice comes back I figured that's where it switched to John and then he strats singing the last verse.

Once you listen closely you can kind of hear it, huh?

Geez, no need to apologize to me!  I too was as stunned as you were!

You think Paul sounds like John on 'Let Me Roll It' Chuck? I never really noticed that, but again, I wasnt looking for it. Cool, you've stirred my curiousity. I'm going to go take a listen again.

Didn't Paul deliberately record it to sound like john (the piano and vocal intro is a dig at Mother from POB, and its even got its own "primal scream" at the end.
It was Pauls' gentemanly response to Lennons "How do you sleep?"
