Across the Universe
This is for a new movie coming out next month. I like this version of the Beatles song a lot. Not sure if I'll see the movie, but I might get the soundtrack...

Indeed, it is a nice version of the song.
Sorry Nic-Dude and S-Paw, but the song is a bit too sacrilegious to Harrison's song (his best of the limited "song-per-album" bones that Paul + John used to throw his way). While I can appreciate some jazzed up versions of classics (see the Lemonheads version of "Mrs Robinson"), put me in the negative vote on this cover.
Okay, completely ignore the brain-dead prior post......due to the movie name, I had the Harrrison-vocal "Across the Universe" song (a slower ballad) in my mind, which isn't the song in the video at all......obviously it's the more up-beat tempo "I've Just Seen a Face"........and yes, I do dig this version of it.......
And here's the soundtrack listing on Interscope Records:
