[Music] A romantic ballad hidden in a wonderful transitional album. "Michelle" - 1965

Good evening, wonderful Hive platform! I hope you are all well. I also send warm greetings to the https://scrobble.life/ project and a fraternal hug to everyone.

Once again, with great enthusiasm and pleasure, I bring you another review concerning or centered around the Fab Four from Liverpool. Today, I'm delighted to talk about one of the most beautiful, velvety, and sublime songs they ever created. I'm referring to "Michelle," a true gem, ladies and gentlemen. Beyond being a romantic song, for me, it also has a timeless and universal message, one that any father could dedicate to his daughter, sister, or mother, as the lyrics lend themselves to that and many other beautiful things as well.

I should mention that this great song is included on the album or LP "Rubber Soul," released in November 1965. It's considered by many critics and music scholars to be tangible evidence of their leap from an early stage to more elaborate works. This album even features a track where they introduce a Hindu sitar, something they had never done before, but which would appear on several tracks in later years. And of course, there's a wealth of cultural aspects and what's known as transcendental meditation, but that's a whole other story.

On another note, this song includes some very delicate and beautiful lines in French. It's one of the very few songs—you could count them on one hand—where they use a language other than English. Judging by my experience and what I've heard from them, I've heard them sing in Italian, German, and that French line in the song "Michelle." This beautiful song is credited to the Lennon-McCartney duo, featuring Paul on bass and acoustic guitar, and of course, vocals and backing vocals. George played a 12-string guitar, John provided acoustic guitar accompaniment, and Ringo played drums. Produced by George Martin, it also featured a Hohner-type electromechanical piano.

It's impossible to listen to this melody and not feel enveloped by a special magic. Paul masterfully interweaves the verbs "need" and "want" within the song's structure, drawing you in because we've all felt love or been in love and know how wonderful it is. Regarding the video, the user who created it took some scenes from the film A Hard Day's Night and composed it, but the background song is "Michelle."

I hope you enjoyed this short review of this special song. For now, I'll say goodbye, but not before wishing you a very good night. We'll read each other and see each other soon. Blessings!
