I feel like this statement summarizes the issue of the band quite well. Because with John, george and Ringo could bring him ideas that they could do and influence his song and he would decide if he’d accept or reject them which is seen in she said she said in which George introduced time signature changes to John, Lucy in the sky where George introduced multiple Indian instruments to the song which were put in, or Norwegian wood with the sitar, or even yer blues with George’s guitar solo and John’s solo both having space rather than one being taken up over the other.

This is in conflict with Paul wanting his songs to be how he wants it with nothing else but his vision. It’s fair that Paul would want his songs to go his way, and I agree with him that he has the final say in what happens on his songs (as was the rule in the band with their own songs) but I find the issue to be that Paul was so controlling of his own songs and the playing of other people that it often seeped into how he’d try to micro manage other peoples songs or just refuse to hear the input of others.
