The story behind the song

"Yes It Is" is a song that delves into the pain of a love lost, focusing on a plea for a former partner to remember the speaker's feelings and the conditions of their separation. It was an attempt by John Lennon to revisit the style of "This Boy," resulting in a piece with complex and unusual three-part vocal harmonies. The song's atmosphere is further shaped by George Harrison's early use of a volume pedal on guitar. At its heart, it plays like a melancholic echo of past promises and lingering regret.
