I don’t normally share anything personal but this my dad from a while back explaining to my daughter he signed the Beatles. Ordinary people do extraordinary things. Great decisions are made for the simplest reasons. “I figured if I like them this much other people might too” ❤️

Thanks for the question. We decided to pan the drums and the bass as George is playing acoustic and singing live. With drums and bass in the centre George’s voice doesn’t ‘float’ in the same beautiful way as it should do for the song. It’s all about how the music makes you feel.
