About This Track
“Two of Us” was originally released on Let It Be and was later released on Anthology 3 and Let It Be… Naked. Its title was used for the VH1 film Two of Us about a fictional reunion between McCartney and Lennon.
“Two of Us” was originally a hard, guitar-driven rocker. In the Let It Be film, McCartney and Lennon sing the song “rocker” style into the same mike. McCartney had never been satisfied with this style, which he described as “chunky.” And so on 24 January, he and the band reworked it. Lennon had ideas about how the song might sound if Stevie Wonder performed it, and just before revisiting the song, the band had run through the Everly Brothers hit “Cathy’s Clown”. With these influences and a move from electric guitar to acoustic, the song transformed into the gentler, stripped-down version that fans know today. The Beatles performed a finished version of the song live at Apple Studios on 31 January 1969; this performance was included in both the Let it Be film and album.
