Song of the Day
“She’s leaving home” by the Beatles.
My father put this one in my head by sending me a link to it on Last.FM. Who knew my dad was cool enough to know about Last.FM?

You know all the Beatles’ albums up to (and including) the White album had different mono and stereo mixes, right?
Many of the songs the difference isn’t that big of a deal. Except perhaps for Help! (the mono mix uses a completely different vocal take), “She’s Leaving Home” has the most notable difference–the mono mix runs notably faster.
I’ve always thought the stereo version seemed to drag a bit, and so this is a notable improvement IMO. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJNJ_SdGNoI
