Competent-sounding stereo versions of 'She Loves You' have been created unofficially using the backing track from 'Sie Liebt Dich', but the engineers who prepared the remasters elected not to do this. Every release of these four songs has been in mono (or simulated stereo) and they appear in mono on the stereo version of Past Masters and Please Please Me.
