About "Michelle"

From the original Beatles Album "Rubber Soul" (1965)

JOHN 1972: "Both of us. I wrote the middle with him."

PAUL 1977: "'Michelle' was like a joke French tune for when you go to a party or something. That's all it was. And then after a while you say, 'Well, that's quite a good tune. Let's put some real words to it.'"

JOHN 1980: "He and I were staying somewhere and he walked in and hummed the first few bars, with the words, and he says, 'Where do I go from here?' I had been listening to (blues singer) Nina Simone. I think it was 'I Put A Spell On You.' There was a line in it that went, 'I love you, I love you.' That's what made me think of the middle-eight for 'Michelle.' So, my contributions to Paul's songs was always to add a little bluesy edge to them. Otherwise, 'Michelle' is a straight ballad, right? He provided a lightness, an optimism, while I would always go for the sadness, the discords, the bluesy notes."

PAUL 1988: "I'll never forget putting the bass line in 'Michelle' because it was a kind of Bizet thing. It really turned the song around. You could do that with bass. It was very exciting."

la mejor música del siglo XX

Michelle es una de tantas canciones que los beatles nos regalaron de su inspiración, Paul estuvo en México en el mes de mayo y tuve la fortuna de irlo a ver y escuchar.Fueron también mis dos hijos mayores y disfruté muchisimo ese viaje porque además de compartir con ellos el concierto nos pasamos unos dias muy agradables en la ciudad de México.
Tengo una nieta que lleva el nombre de Michelle que es un regalo de Dios.

My name is Erácleo, I have 59 years. I am separate, I live in Maringa, Parana State, Brazil. Always been a fan of The Beatles. Michelle is one of the most romantic songs of the band. With my 14 to 15 years, I heard this song in Curitiba, the state capital. Struck me, struck me very much even. I'll be back time to that time, in a lovely cold night in Curitiba, my hometown, I went back to vacation ...

Me chamo Erácleo, tenho 59 anos. Sou separado, moro em Maringá, Estado do Paraná, no Brasil. Sempre fui fã dos The Beatles. Michelle é uma das músicas mais românticas da banda. Com meus 14 para 15 anos, ouvi esta canção em Curitiba, capital do estado. Me marcou, me marcou muito, mesmo. Volto o tempo para aquela época,,, numa linda noite fria da Curitiba, minha terra natal, que eu voltava para férias...
