Did The Beatles call it a song? I have no idea.

Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

Jesus and his carpenter dad built a couple of basses together. The called the second one the J-Bass. The first bass was gifted to his friend Peter, it was called the P-Bass.
I do not know. I personally think it was a creation by George Martin and his staff.
Well, that's where the mantel turned up missing one day.
I didn't know she could really sing, pretty good actually. Nice Ric bass. It does become annoying rather quickly though on the other hand. Pretty difficult to even approach the original.
Blame Yoko for train leaving on track 29.

. I can't tell you if it's faithful to the original though, I've probably only listened to the whole thing once.

I'll add it to all the other stuff I blame her for, starting with her voice -- find a tabby cat, insert it into the AutoCatSqueezer, push the button.
I hasten to add that I do not mistreat animals, but I sure felt mistreated by Yoko the first time I heard what was purported to be her singing.

I don't think I've ever heard a Beatle tune that I can say I've actually disliked. I always liked Hello Goodbye, especially the bass line.

Yoko came from a rich family. Those parents often indulge their children and let them pursue an artistic path, whether or not they have any talent.
A couple of years ago I started a thread entitled something like "Did God rest after he created the Fender Precision bass?"
It didn't last very long....

Another one was "What can Fender do to make their relic basses more realistic?" I put in a poll with stuff like: put cigarette burns on the headstock (which believe it or not they did start to do), widen the neck-pocket in the body so the neck can really slop around, put the bridge on crooked etc, it was a lot of fun until one of the mods who happened to like Relics came along.

One of them was "hang the G string over the edge of the neck".
She had a voice only a mother could love, for sure.
She could actually sing fairly good when she tried, well at least hold a tune and she had some vibrato, can't remember where I heard it though.
Not to start a religious war, seriously, but relics are something I just never took to. I was raised to treat all musical instruments with care and respect. I hate putting even the tiniest nick or scratch on one. I dunno, do relics satisfy some need to buy street cred, so that you can look like you just came off a 9-month tour in a 70s Ford Econoline van with no roadies or something?Another one was "What can Fender do to make their relic basses more realistic?"

I think you are thinking of Happy Christmas (War is Over).
