    LOL  Yup!
    The first time I heard that song I thought it was great.  Every time since, I run for the dial to avoid 20 minutes of nah nah nah, nah-nah-nah.  :lol:

    The one on the same-titled album. Don't know who produced it. That's better than the one they usually play on the radio.

    I think that one is the top release, even better than the recent remix/deluxe reissue.

    I agree. Naked is the best mix.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    When I was introduced to the Naked version, it was like hearing the album for the first time. Amazing mix.

    I love how the Naked version jumps right into it. Never a fan of the studio chatter Spector left in his work. I remember reading something about Paul hating what he did for like 30 years before instigating the Naked version.

    Having Paul and Johns voices in stereo on the Glyn Johns mix is fun. On One after 909.

    Agreed! I am glad they put out the GJ mixes. He definitely has a talent for voices. See Band of Horses Mirage Rock. He tried getting those guys to harness their inner Eagles/Beatles on a number of those songs.

    Let It Be…Naked is by far the best version. After listening to both I really didn’t care for the strings being added in some of the songs on the original. Not having Don't Let Me Down on the original was a big miss IMO.
