    I wanna here a mashup medley of Dont Let me Down (Original Demo), Watching Rainbows, and I Got a Feeling!! It would ROCK!

    At 1:24 onward for 15 or so secondsI heard genius, and the hair on the back of my head raised up. That little segment with the syncopation of the vocals and the elec piano and guitar riffs would have been the basis of a new song that would have been tremendous!

    Was looking for this and what a surprise it's you who uploaded it. Thanks!

    My goodness what a great piece of work you did on this ,lost classic"awesomely fab!! (would be great if you could remaster the full version, uncut, with the jam) thank YOU ! (i have only 1 point about the mix, : why are all the ,,shoot me's "gone? its something that came back into Come Together, i know, but, that is a little pity, but, i LOVE it, really)

    Nice job making this feel more cohesive!
  • So this song hits me as a blend of Dylan’s Quinn the Eskimo in a very Grateful Dead type of jam, as well as of course “I’ve got a feeling” and “I am the Walrus”. VERY interesting to say the least. This is RIPE for remixing and/or being completed and covered by whichever musician wants to take it on, nodding to you Paul McCartney!!! The basics are all there, the melody, chord structure…it can be released as an “I’ve Got a Feeling” Remix, which would be fantastic and an instant money maker!

    I think Watching Rainbows was nothing more than a jam (one that produced I’ve Got a Feeling’s chord), but this is a great edit bro!

    Ferdinand the Impostor by the Band has the same intro. They must've nicked it from the Basement Tapes Bootlegs that were circulating around in the late '60s. The Beatles have a rendition of "Please, Mrs Henry", too.
  • My first thought of this recording is it being an early version of "I've Got a Feeling" evolving into the Get Back version.

    Está increíble, la piel de gallina.
  • I've been a Beatles fan since I was 10, never heard this before. First ran across it in another video of Let It Be sessions. Awesome job with the edit, Beatles fans owe you a debt of gratitude! Would have been amazing if this song ever got finished. Gotta wonder if it eventually evolved into I've Got A Feeling
