Also,'beatlemania420' suggested a very good point to me-"Before one gig on a solo tour, John dedicated a song to "'an old estrainged fience' of mine named Paul". I'm not sure if this pertains to that but I fet it should be mentioned.-Yes it certainly does deserve to be mentioned, thank you for the helpful information mate :hug:

Paul responds by throwing himself totally into the performance, singing in a hoarse, fulsome shout that simultaneously summons and sends up the melodramatic emotionality of 1950s doo-wop and R&B. Apart from its wonderfully nuanced lead vocal, "Oh! Darling" is an expression of musical minimalism. It matches a relentlessly simple accompaniment with a relentlessly repetitive lyric that offers a promise good behaviour ("I'll never do you no harm") as the prelude to a desperate plea ("If you leave me, I'll never make it alone"). Given the state of relationships among the Beatles during this time, it is hard to imagine that Paul's rendering of this heartbroken sentiment, however satiric, did not have some basis in his sense of rejection by John.
