Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) To explicate with an audio sample what cannot be conveyed with prose alone:
  • According to the musicologist Alan W. Pollack, the "vocal parts are more intricately worked out than first meets the eye. Paul takes the lead for most of the verse sections with John singing in harmony below him." He notes the "trill-like ornaments John sensually tacks onto the end of his phrases in the verse." As well, the bass and rhythm guitar provide the song "its characteristic bounce". (Pollack, Alan W. (1996). "Notes on 'There's a Place'". soundscapes.info. Retrieved 17 May 2021.)
  • Howard Kramer writes that the song illustrates the Everly Brothers' influence on Lennon and McCartney's harmonies. (Kramer, Howard (2009). "Rock and Roll Music". In Womack, Kenneth (ed.). The Cambridge Companion to the Beatles. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. ISBN 978-0-521-68976-2. Page 68.)
  • The musicologist Ian MacDonald writes that the sound of Lennon's voice demonstrates that he had a cold. (MacDonald, Ian (2007) [1994]. Revolution in the Head: The Beatles' Records and the Sixties (Third ed.). Chicago: Chicago Review Press. ISBN 978-1-55652-733-3 Page. 66.)
  • The music critic Tim Riley compares Lennon and McCartney's harmonies to the Beach Boys', writing that Beatles' "[double] the effect" of any similar attempt. (Riley, Tim (2002) [1988]. Tell Me Why: The Beatles: Album by Album, Song by Song, the Sixties and After (Revised and Updated ed.). Cambridge: Da Capo Press. ISBN 978-0-306-81120-3. Page 56.)
