Michelle
Lennon/McCartney

Lyrics:
Michelle, ma belle
These are words that go together well
My Michelle

Michelle, ma belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
tres bien ensemble

I love you, I love you, I love you
that's all I want to say
Until I find a way
I will say the only words I know you'll understand

Michelle, ma belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
tres bien ensemble

I need to, I need to, I need to
I need to make you see
Oh, what you mean to me
Until I do I'm hoping you will know what I mean
I love you

I want you, I want you, I want you
I think you know by now
I'll get to you some how
Until I do I'm telling you so you'll understand

Michelle, ma belle
Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble
tres bien ensemble
And I will say the only words I know that you'll understand
My Michelle

What Goes On? Anomalies

0:45
'Fwip' in the word "say"
Not on mono
0:56, 2:01
Wrong note in guitar part under word "ma", makes a major chord, instead of minor (Right channel)

I've revised my opinion of these, after hearing from Max Mismetti. This is called a dissonant chord, the chord has a major AND minor third. The "third" being the note which normally distinguishes between a major chord and a minor chord. In this case, the strings just rang out louder and made it sound wrong, but it is in fact correct.

1:39 * NEW *
Click on lead guitar channel after solo ends (left)
2:01-2:08
Song slows from 118 bpm to 109 bpm, and stays like that. The sound of the snare changes here, so this must be an edited on ending - at least on the drum channel. Vincent Dubrall suggested that this was a "retard" - the song is intended to slow down. However, the change in sound implies that some kind of joining of takes took place.
2:27
Left ear - cough - not audible on CD, as vocals are dipped off. * NEW * Also stray guitar notes.
Note: I did not write or compile these anomalies. Please don't email me with new anomalies and please read the WGO Info page.
