Part 2/7:
What makes "She’s Leaving Home" particularly fascinating is its stylistic choices. Unlike much of their catalog, this song features no instrumental accompaniment from the band members themselves. Instead, the vocal lines are complemented by orchestral arrangements crafted by Michael Leander. Notably, Ringo Starr does not perform on this track, while George Harrison participates.
The song operates under specific structural elements: McCartney penned the verses, and Lennon took on the choruses. The production makes use of double-tracked vocals and limited four-track recording technology to create a rich, layered sound.
