Pet_Sounds' Top 50 Beatles Songs
#40: Wait
"It's been a long time; now I'm coming back home."
The Top 50 project returns with this deep cut from The Beatles' second 1965 album,
Rubber Soul. There's not a lot to say about it--it's short, simple, and almost country.
Two things stand out, however:
The vocal harmonies might be their best on tracks not titled "Because". Listen to the
a cappella bits.
It demonstrates what Lennon-McCartney did better than just about anyone else--write a catchy, two-minute pop song that gets stuck in your head after only one listen.
