The Beatles - I'm Looking Through You (Second Version - Take 3) (Visualiser)

Paul wrote “I’m Looking Through You” while reflecting on his relationship with his then-girlfriend Jane Asher, who was 120 miles away in Bristol acting in an adaptation of Charles Dickens’s novel Great Expectations.

As Paul later remembered in Many Years from Now: “This one I remember particularly as me being disillusioned over her commitment. I would write it out in a song and then I’ve got rid of the emotion. ‘I’m looking through you, and you’re not there!’ I don’t hold grudges so that gets rid of that little bit of emotional baggage.”
Three different versions of the song were attempted. The first was recorded on 24th October, followed by two further takes during a six-hour session on 6th November. The third and final version was recorded on 10th and 11th November.

This version comes from the 6th November session and shows how both the tempo and arrangement had changed from the early version, while still including two instrumental 12-bar sections. Paul subsequently wrote a bridge to replace these sections in the final version.
