Listen To The New Mix Of “I Want To Tell You“ From The Revolver Special Editions

Order the new Revolver special editions now: ‘“I Want To Tell You” is about the avalanche of thoughts that are so hard to write down or say or transmit,’ George explained in his memoir, I Me Mine. He added that, on reflection, he would revise the words in the bridge section to express the idea that ‘the mind is the thing that hops about telling us to do this or that – when what we need is to lose (forget) the mind.’ In 1991, when George performed “I Want To Tell You“ in Japan with Eric Clapton’s band, he sang the alternative words he proposed in I Me Mine: ‘It isn’t me – it’s just my mind /That is confusing things.’ #thebeatlesrevolver
