Song lyrics
Michelle, ma belle 
These are words that go together well 
My Michelle 

Michelle, ma belle 
Sont des mots qui vont très bien ensemble 
très bien ensemble 

I love you, I love you, I love you 
that's all I want to say 
Until I find a way 
I will say the only words I know that you'll understand 

Michelle, ma belle 
Sont des mots qui vont très bien ensemble 
très bien ensemble 

I need to, I need to, I need to 
I need to make you see 
Oh, what you mean to me 
Until I do I'm hoping you will know what I mean 
I love you 

I want you, I want you, I want you 
I think you know by now 
I'll get to you some how 
Until I do I'm telling you, so you'll understand 

Michelle, ma belle 
Sont des mots qui vont très bien ensemble 
très bien ensemble 
And I will say the only words I know that you'll understand 
My Michelle

Weakest song on Rubber Soul by far. The beat is great but the lyrics are so cheesy. I feel that if this song wasn't on here or the lyrics were better, Rubber Soul would be the best album in the history of music.

This is one of their better songs, a mid-Beatles age romantic classic. How many other bands could sing in another language in that time? This is an efficient song



4/5

What are you people talking about? This song is awesome. Weakest song on Rubber Soul? You must not listen to Rubber Soul, or something, because that's pathetic. First, listen to Michelle. Drags, you say? Listen to Girl. If any of them drag, that's the one.

do you know who is michelle?
when the beatels where on a tour to france, at the airport were a lot of fans and one girl named michelle died because of the large crowd who basecally run her over.

that's y they are speaking french. hoever, i agree that the lyrics are lame.
i mean come on they didn't even know her so saying" i love u" and "i need you" is totally redicilous.

but they are still owsomeeee !!!! :cheery:

THESE ARE THE REAL SONG FACTS!!!!!!

John Lennon invited McCartney over to college parties when he was still in high school, and French culture was a trend. Paul would try to fit in by sitting in a corner and pretending to be French. He would play little tunes in French, but he only knew a few French words so he would groan or make words up. John told him that he should make it into a real song for Rubber Soul, so he asked his friend Ivan Vaughan, whose wife was a French teacher, for a French name and some words to rhyme with it. Vaughan came up with "Michelle, ma belle." McCartney came up with the next line, "These are words that go together well," and Vaughan taught him the French translation, "Sont des mots qui vont tres bien ensemble," which he used in the song as well. When he played it for Lennon, John suggested the "I love you" part in the middle. (thanks, Klasic Rok - Battle Ground, WA)
This is not based on any particular woman. They chose the name because it sounded good.
