The Beatles - Slow Down

Back before he was the great and powerful John Lennon, the Smart One was a teenage boy sitting in his room at home listening to his favorite songs and learning how to play them. What seemed to appeal to him most was passion -- it spoke to something inside him. When the Beatles made their first recordings what stood out about Lennon was his commitment to the songs he sang, and it actually seemed to be stronger on the covers than on the originals. Here's "Slow Down" as a case in point.
