 I'm listening to the album again and I forgot how good I've Just Seen a Face is. Very reminiscent of S&G but brilliant intro and verses.

Yesterday just came on and I just had to skip it.
I voted Yesterday off straight off the bat.
After listening to the album tonight, I should have as well. Enjoyed everything except that track. Maybe its heavyweight status threw me.
Such an overrated song.

I know I’ve said I think their covers are usually lesser than originals, but if Yesterday outlasts Act Naturally, this board has shit for brains.

Interesting that It's Only Love hasn't garnered a vote in the opening round. Lennon apparently hated the song, considering it one of the worst things he'd ever written.

Good song. Talent doesn't equal taste! ;)

Artists aren't the best judges of their own work, plus I think Lennon was in a bad place at the time of that interview. Lyrics aren't the greatest but it has a great yearning melody.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Yeah, it’s a much better song than half this side, IMO.
