Yesterday by The Beatles
Yesterday
All my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday
Yesterday by The Beatles
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go
I don't know, she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday
Love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday

I know I'm in the minority here but this is by far my least favorite Beatles song. I'd rather listen to Revolution 9 non-stop all day long than to this story of a pathetic, whining crybaby. "Oh, boo hoo, poor me, I'm so lonely, sad and miserable. Please feel bad for me" You know what, just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, be a man and get on with your life! What a loser. Paul should have stuck with "Scrambled Eggs."

Then i wonder why this is the Beatles song that has been covered so much. Maybe a lot of people like hearing whiny people sing??

Yet, you come here and whine about the whiny song?

I think it's probably because the vocals are the main instrument. Musically it's an interesting arrangement even if the lyrics are boring.

To each his own. I much prefer this to: "I wanna hold your hand".

Pfff. He's upset about a girl leaving him yesterday. It's not like he's still whining about something that happened years ago.

Eric, I see where you're coming from, the lyrics are pretty whiny. I just like the song because musically it's pleasing, but it's definitely not one of my favourites. Thoughts anyone?

Seemed odd that I needed to type in the word Yesterday nine times in one quiz. But I scored 23/23 in 2:33. thanks for the quiz!
