I'm Looking Through You

"I'm Looking Through You" was written by Paul about his girlfriend, Jane Asher. It tells the familiar story of how two people can grow apart when one person changes. At this point in time, Paul and Jane had been together for five years--but it had been a pretty crazy and intense five years. The Beatles had shot to super-stardom, and stuff like that understandably changes people.

I like this one; Paul sings in a higher range, which gives the song a more urgent and questioning feel. The music is stabby, poking and prodding and almost accusing, an excellent match for the lyrics. Overall a great, albeit sad, song. :)

That's all for today. See you guys tomorrow. :)
