I Want You (She’s So Heavy) by The Beatles – ****

First released: 1969

An interesting story about this song. I became a quick fan of Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs version of "Abbey Road" due to this song. I had played this song on my parent's old copy of "Abbey Road" and liked it, but I really LOVED it when I heard the remastering. The organ solo really came to the fore on that version where I never even heard it before. That turned out to be my favorite part of the song. The "white noise" also makes more sense as I just thought it was a scratchy old album.

Of course, with the advent of the CD, this made all of this moot, but it was fun when I first heard those hidden treasures. It is also used for 2006's "Love".
