I approved this and I think I was listening to the entire song to see if I could find the exact thing because it just didn't fit the way it should.

I ended up approving it because well, to me it's there. It's just that they might have done something to it like thunder axe said maybe it's chopped up somehow. Maybe they replayed some and directly sampled some. Or they just recreated it entirely with the same instruments.

Exactly, I hear parts that DO sound like an exact match, but other parts I just can't find in the Eleanor Rigby melody...

this one is weird, maybe it's chopped up... there are melody lines that sound exactly the same, but then bits that don't. i thought maybe it was a left channel/right channel thing, but it's not even that.

Its clearly a Direct Sample.

Perhaps more of an inspiration than an actual sample.
