Lennon's voice is what really carries their version for me. There aren't many others who can belt out rock and roll like that.

Anyway, The Beatles' version is surprisingly rough and heavy, isn't it? Kind of a shocker for those who are listening to the Beatles' second album, and aren't expecting it (although Roll Over Beethoven kinda primes them for it).

You know it's a rocker when an underground garage rock nut says it's surprisingly rough and heavy!
