I don't like the "tatatatatatatatatatatat" schtick. Except that, I think it's not bad, no?

Fun fact for boob fans: they're actually singing "tit" there over and over.

Which is funny because the Dennis character jokes about that at the beginning of Love and Mercy.

The idea for the "titititit" part in Girl was gotten from the similar part in "You're So Good To Me" by the BB's where they go "La la la la."

Girl is one of my favorite songs. In fact, I'd put it in the top 2!

Thank you for breaking the tie.  3D

The preceding albums were the countdown. Now we are BLASTING OFF!!!

Quote
Rubber Soul is an album by the Beatles, their sixth UK album, and the tenth released in America. Released on 3 December 1965, it met with a highly favourable critical response and topped record charts in the United Kingdom for several weeks, as well as in the United States, where it was issued with a different selection of tracks.

Produced by George Martin, Rubber Soul incorporates a mix of 1960s pop, soul, and folk music styles. The album's name comes from the term plastic soul, which popular African American soul musicians coined to describe Mick Jagger, a white musician singing soul music. It was the second Beatles album – after the British version of A Hard Day's Night – to contain only original material, and was recorded in just over four weeks to make the Christmas market. Unlike the five albums that preceded it, Rubber Soul was recorded during a continuous period, whereas the group had previously made their albums during breaks between tour dates and other commitments. The project marked the first time that the Beatles focused on creating an album as an artistic work, an approach that they then developed with Revolver (1966) and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967).

The album has been included in numerous "best of" album lists compiled by various publications, and is regarded by musicologists as a major artistic achievement that continued the group's artistic maturation while attaining widespread critical and commercial success. In 2012, Rubber Soul was ranked number five on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". In 2013, after the British Phonographic Industry changed their sales award rules, the album was declared as having gone platinum.

Regarding "Girl", I've always loved the line "She's the kind of girl you want so much, it makes you sorry".

Such a good line, from such a good song. And it's not just the words, it's the way he sings them. With sheer longing.  When John was expressive with his voice, he really could make you feel something.
