Lanzada como un doble lado A con la canción "Yellow Submarine" en agosto de 1966, Eleanor Rigby marcó un salto gigante en la forma en que los Beatles pensaron en su arte, luego de explorar nuevas y más complejas ideas musicales como "Day Tripper. "Y" Paperback Writer ". Escrito e interpretado por Paul McCartney como parte de las sesiones de Revolver, presenta una composición de cuerdas de George Martin que ayudó a cambiar la forma en que las personas consideraban la" música pop ".
Recuerdo que descubrí este temazo y el "Strawberry Fields" gracias a este libro que nos hicieron leer en 3º de ESO, dado que citaba las canciones al final y al inicio del libro respectivamente, y nos las pusieron en clase
Ah look at all the lonely people
Ah look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby, picks up the rice
In the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face
That she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Father McKenzie, writing the words
Of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks
In the night when there's nobody there
What does he care
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Ah look at all the lonely people
Ah look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby, died in the church
And was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt
From his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Y aprovecho para recomendar también esta versión que hizo Thrice de la canción, en un estilo totalmente diferente.
Los Beatles óscuros. Pones esta enfrente de "I want to hold your hand" y flipas. Me pone to palote.
