I've Just Seen A Face
"I've Just Seen a Face" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles. It was released in August 1965 on their album '' Help!'', except in North America, where it appeared as the opening track on the December 1965 release '' Rubber Soul''. Written and sung by Paul McCartney, the song is credited to the Lennon–McCartney partnership. The song is a cheerful love ballad, its lyrics discussing a love at first sight while conveying an adrenaline rush the singer experiences that makes him both enthusiastic and inarticulate. The song began as an uptempo country and western-style piano piece, originally titled "Auntie Gin's Theme". McCartney then added lyrics that may have been inspired by his relationship with actress Jane Asher. The Beatles completed the track on 14 June 1965 at EMI Studios in London on the same day they recorded " I'm Down" and " Yesterday". The recording fuses country and western with several other musical genres, including folk rock, folk, pop rock an ...
