Even though this is the brainchild of the lead guitarist in the group, he opted to omit a solo of any kind. pbjs.que.push(function() { googletag.pubads().collapseEmptyDivs(false); { bidder: 'ix', params: { siteId: '347868', size: [320, 50] }}, But since he claims that he honestly couldn’t remember, we need to revert back to his statement about his early Beatles compositions: “The early ones were just any words I could think of.”. George Harrison’s growth as a songwriter became much more evident with the December 1965 release of The Beatles’ “Rubber Soul” album. enableSendAllBids: false, The lyrics ask us what our dream is, daring us to truly live by finding our own path instead of simply going through life doing what is expected or what we’re told. googletag.pubads().setTargeting("met_pc", "dictionary"); In preparation for the first “Rubber Soul” release on compact disc, George Martin went back to the drawing board in 1986 to make a new stereo mix of “Think For Yourself” which stands as the most widely available mix of the song to this day. { bidder: 'ix', params: { siteId: '347853', size: [160, 600] }}, { bidder: 'appnexus', params: { placementId: '13531942' }}, This is, of course, supposing that the song was indeed about the government as he speculated. “We’d had our cute period and now it was time to expand…that was the feeling about ‘, While the bulk of the lyrics could easily have been addressed to the "powers that be," George undoubtedly slipped in some content that made it seem as if he was speaking to a woman, thereby continuing The Beatles established and acceptable trend of writing songs about relationships. bids: [{ bidder: 'rubicon', params: { accountId: '17282', siteId: '201358', zoneId: '990440', position:'btf' }}, In his book “I, Me, Mine,” which was first published in 1980, he explains why: “It must be about ‘somebody’ from the sound of it. { bidder: 'pubmatic', params: { publisherId: '158679', adSlot: 'met_btmslot' }}]}, type: "html5", params: { }] { bidder: 'pubmatic', params: { publisherId: '158679', adSlot: 'met_rightslot' }}]}]; The end of the first phrase, on the words “. This final chorus is actually extended to twelve measures in order to, as The Beatles were prone to do, repeat the hook line of the song to imbed the title in the listeners mind. Although The Beatles experimented with an early marketed version of this device, the Gibson Maestro Fuzztone, as early as 1963 (the same box used by The Rolling Stones on “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction”), the device used on “Think For Yourself” was called “The Tone Bender,” a unit created by Gary Hurst who personally gave it to the group sometime in 1965. { bidder: 'criteo', params: { networkId: 7100, publisherSubId: 'met_topslot' }}, The chorus that follows shows Ringo remembering to play the double triplet with Paul once again in the sixth measure, even throwing in another unnecessary triplet in the last measure. googletag.pubads().addEventListener('slotRenderEnded', function(event) { if (!event.isEmpty && event.slot.renderCallback) { event.slot.renderCallback(event); } }); With their omission of the dynamic track “Nowhere Man” which preceded the song on the British album, being held back by Capitol for a future single, George’s song arguably stands out somewhat better. node.parentNode.insertBefore(gads, node); expires: 365 }, But all this time later, I don’t quite recall who inspired that tune. Capitol's version of "Rubber Soul" was released on an individual compact disc on January 21st, 2014, both the mono and stereo versions of the album contained on a single CD.

Although engineer Ken Townsend explains in the book “The Beatles Recording Sessions” that they used an EMI-made distortion unit at times, it was not used by The Beatles until later. Paul’s bass line three times repeats the slow triplet heard in the introduction while the tambourine and maracas keep a straight 4/4 beat as an interesting contrast. This remastered set was also released on September 9th, 2009. Another interesting feature of the verses is the extended second phrase that segues into the chorus. {code: 'ad_leftslot', pubstack: { adUnitName: 'met_leftslot', adUnitPath: '/4581210/met_leftslot' }, mediaTypes: { banner: { sizes: [[160, 600]] } },
