I´ve been having a few arguments about this. I´ve been through all the isolations, some bootlegs and of course by now I´ve listened to the tracks dozens of times, but I can´t listen to any vocals by Ringo, although some friends keep insisting he sings on the chorus. I think they´re just suggested by the clip.
Someone keeps telling me about his "low voice". I may be losing some hearing, but I can still hear the bass singer on "Gone Troppo" or on Elvis´s recordings.
If there´s indeed vocals by Ringo and for some reason I´m really incapable of listening it, would it be possible to isolate it?
Thanks!

I heard several different isolations and I couldn't hear Ringo as well. If he only sang a low octave harmony of the main melody, which a think it's the case, it would be hard to hear it properly.

Speaking of Autotune, why oh WHY did they have to use it on John's voice. That opening verse sounds so robotic. It's madness... they wait 30 years for the tech to appear that can cleanly isolate his voice, and then they do their best to wreck it.

A great analysis by Wings of Pegasus on the use of "autotune" on John's voice.

I kept wondering why they didn't fix Paul's vocals at least a little. He sounds like he's really struggling to hit some notes, which makes it a bit difficult for me to listen to it...

It’s definitely hard to un-hear it now

Oh he’s quite audible on the stereo version as well

I´m sorry, guys...
Is there any chance some of you are taking Paul for Ringo?
