"I've Just Seen a Face" is a song by The Beatles. It appears on their 1965 UK album Help!. But in the United States, this song, along with "It's Only Love", appears on the Rubber Soul album.
Several songs on 1964's Beatles for Sale, as well as "I'll Cry Instead" from A Hard Day's Night, had leaned in a country and western direction. But "I've Just Seen a Face" was almost pure country, taken at such a fast tempo that it might have been bluegrass if not for the absence of banjo and fiddle. The song, principally the work of Paul McCartney, starts with a mesmerizing few bars of acoustic guitar patterns not heard elsewhere in the song, abruptly changing gears into a stiff-beat shuffle that's almost as fast as any song the Beatles wrote.
"I've Just Seen a Face" was written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon-McCartney), and features McCartney on vocals. Before its release, the song was briefly.
