Don't hate it, but not a keeper for me as it's got the backing of one of my very favorite songs behind one of my two least-favorite Beatles songs (the other being the similarly treacly The Long and Winding Road). C in California
I love both of these songs, but the mashup isn't doing it for me. I think there are other Beatles songs that would be a better fit.
If you want to hear the Funk Brothers doing Beatles songs, there were a bunch of Beatles covers by Motown stars back in the '60s, though the only one I have in my collection is Stevie Wonder's version of We Can Work It Out. On the flip side, the Fabs' version of You've Really Got a Hold on Me is brilliant.

I like it! Right up there with "Tie Your Mother Down vs. Super Freak".
Whoa! Not the worst I've heard--it actually works.. In places..
p.s. I have all kinds of Beatles mashups--I'll have to see if some of them are on youtube and forward just for fun..
This is cool. At least it's better than Ed Sheeran's mashup with "Let's Get It On." ;)

Oh, this is magical. Love it. Really love it.
Jamerson... my goodness
I went through a mad phase 10-15 years ago listening to all kinds of mash-ups. One of my Beatle favorites was this-

Beatles meet Shaft/Beach Boys/Radiohead/Michael Jackson!
I liked it a lot.
I know one person who thought it was the greatest thing ever, one who said he loved it and one who hates it. I feel like you do. Unsure.
"Video unavailable".... Do you have a link? Thanks!
What the hell's going on with me not checking in yesterday??
M_Sharp,
I uploaded a different link. Let's see how long this one lasts.
Thanks, Sal. I don't hate it, but it's not working for me. I few snippets from Marvin would have helped.
