If it's the 40th anniversary of the song, then it's the original, faster speed version that was used on the charity album. Recorded the same day as "Lady Madonna," "Hey Bulldog," and George's "The Inner Light." Strange little one-off session just before they took off on their trip to India. Oh, duh.

More info, please. And, yes, "Help" would've been another possibility. Wonderful story. though my first thought was the same as frankenslade - which version! More info, please.

My vote's for the faster (true speed?) version that was initially released on a charity album. They pulled two young women off the street to sing background vocals. The version on Let It Be is slowed down, I believe, and has added instruments. Still a great song and, surely, worthy of the expense that NASA is putting into this exercise in Boomerdom.
