061 - The Beatles

Beatles album Rubber Soul  (1965) is almost entirely filled with songs that don't exceed the three minute mark. Despite almost religiously sticking to this time-constraint the album exudes welcome diversity in its tracks. This song might not make many people's 'Top 5 Beatles Songs' lists, nor  others' 'Favourite Rubber Soul Tracks'. It is a little soppy and the harpsichord bridge in the middle sounds outdated. Yet there's something in the lyrics I'm drawn to. Without going too deep they are both reflective and warm, endearing the listener to them.
