Than to Be With Another Man

garrett #626: "...Stevie Ray do 'Red House'..."

Now that I've got it playing in the background, yeah, I've heard it. Not sure it's better than Jimi's....

Covers.

Read in a morning thread that today, 1965, was the day Rubber Soul was released. Looked at it and thought, not a clunker in the playlist. Then listened to it and thought, it has my least-favorite Beatles song (even below Yellow Submarine, Octopus's Garden, or Mr Moonlight) -- "Run for your life."

Contains the stupidest line, too: "I'd rather see you dead, little girl, than to be with another man." I know it's supposed to mean "than to see you with another man," but it reads like, "than for me to be with another man." Too bad, because, structurally, good song & good tune, but, but, mean.

So, what would be the best Beatles cover? Cocker's Little Help from my Friends does not get counted because, Cocker.
