Are you sure you've got the correct lyrics?

I like to consider this song one of a trilogy, starting with Satisfaction and continued
with 19th Nervous Breakdown. A nice comment on the 1960s lifestyle.
To me this trilogy (I would even use the word trinity) captures the FIRST golden era of
our boys.

Great song. The stereo (studio) version is interesting as the two guitars become separated...rough rhythm guitar and that thin repeated lead line. Only knowing the mono version all these years I have always wondered what the high-pitched notes were, almost bell-like or a little like a harmonica or something. Only in stereo (or "true stereo") do you realise it's a guitar.

This is one of a few songs where the drummer can play the drum riff
and everyone knows what song it is.
I don't think anyone else has ever used this drum riff in another song

Listen to the track I posted on the Tracking Cookie - live in Honolulu, 1966, and that lead guitar line stands out a mile. Brian?

yeah, but it's too bad that the stereo version has become standard on radio, etc.--or at least it was for years when the first wave of CDs were produced. It's tracks like this that make you understand why mono is preferable for most '60s material. The track just sounds weaker with the guitars isolated.
