Currently, I've Just Seen A Face is my favorite Beatles song.


It's a solo performance released under the name 'The Beatles'. ;D

Most definitely!  Just like I'm Looking Through You.

According to the Abby Road Studio Sessions, I've Just seen a Face, I'm Down and Yesterday were recorded on June 14th, 1965 in that order all in one day! Phew!

Some present-day bands might take a year to do that.  ha2ha

I've Just Seen a Face - WOW Amazing song!! Love the guitar intro. The entire album Help! really is pure genious, can't get enough!
In my opinion, the Beatles are not only the greatest musical act of all time, but also mankind's crowning artistic achievement.

 I've Just Seen a Face is one of those timeless songs and I would have liked it on the English Rubber Soul (like on the US release) and Wait released back on Help when it was recorded. I think that would have stopped the leak twords the end of Rubber Soul and maybe would have it considered the greatest Beatle Album ever. But... such is life. Auntie Gin would be proud!

Currently, I've Just Seen A Face is my favorite Beatles song.

It took ten years but Paul finally took a lesson from groups like these...


...and performed a bluegrass version in 1975...

I've Just Seen A Face Wings Live 1975

Aww...this is why I've always longed to see Paul live. He seems like he's a lot of fun as a performer. I've always loved this song too. The beginning, ending and everything in between. :)

^Thank you so much for the amazing video!  ;D

As for my thoughts on this song....I am insanely in love with it. I think it's my favorite Beatles song, certainly top 3. It's my mom's too, so we sing it together all the time and when I play it on guitar. It's like our thing. I saw Paul live in PA in August 2010, and he played this song. I about died of happiness when I heard that opening guitar. My mom unfortunately wasn't with me, so I called her and let her listen to it over the phone! She was so happy! I promised her I would do that if he played it. But I didn't expect him to 'cause it's not one of his usuals. I got an amazing surprise.

Anyways, I think this song is just so happy. It displays perfectly what it feels like to fall in love. Listen closely to the lyrics. I think it has an unusual rhyme scheme and a different kind of way of flowing along, and it kind of pulls you along. There's really no other song like it in the Beatles' entire catalog. I wish the Beatles had done it live.

I love it when they do it in the movie Across the Universe as well. It was captured perfectly and I'm so glad the director was smart enough to include it.

So did your mom!  That was a sweet thing you did.

^Yeah, thanks  :)

It was so loud in there that I had no clue if she answered the phone or not or if it had went into her voicemail or something. So I just yelled into the phone "Mom! I don't know if you're there! Can you hear this!?" Apparently she was talking back to me and I couldn't hear it at all. So I just held the phone up for her to hear it, lol.
