I especially admire the lyrics to "Paperback Writer" as they always inspire me to want to write something (laughs) ! Paul's youthful young voice sounds so emotional, thoughtful and poignant on this song, so full of intellectual feeling, if that's not an oxymoron. He's singing about thinking, contemplating, writing. Not about romance and love. It's refreshing. Makes one want to scribble.
Thanks for this !Â

What I like about the 'Paperback Writer' isolated vocals is the way Paul clears his throat between his verses. knowing that it would never be heard on the finished record. Its quite entertaining listening to many of these vocal overdubs on Beatles songs, hearing the various 'warming up' vocalising between passages. They would have been lost forever had it not been for the ability to be able to listen to the vocal recordings in isolation.

I was thinking the same thing!

Are Macca's vocals what might be called "a high Irish tenor"--whatever, his singing is so beautiful. John has a quite distinctive singing voice. You always know it's him. He sounds sarcastic, sneering, cynical at times, his voice while singing, such as on "Sexy Sadie"-- he sounds positively scathing. Maybe the little guru didn't really deserve that, but it's an effective tune. George always sounded so heavily Liverpudlian. very heavily Souse-accented as when speaking. I couldn't help but think 'they don't sound like posh English toffs when they speak. Not that that is a bad thing."
