- ‘Hello, Goodbye’ Main Writer: McCartney. Recorded: October 2, 19, 25 and November 2, 1967. Released: November 27, 1967. 11 weeks; No. 1. McCartney never claimed that the irresistibly bounce “Hello, Goodbye” was his most profound songwriting moment.
- ‘Yes It Is’ Main Writer: Lennon. Recorded: February 16, 1965. Released: April 19, 1965. 4 weeks; No. 46 (B side) As he was with much of his early work, Lennon was dismissive of “Yes It Is”; he said it was “me trying a rewrite of ‘This Boy,’ but it didn’t work.”
- ‘Long, Long, Long’ Writer: Harrison. Recorded: October 7-9, 1968. Released: November 25, 1968. Not released as a single. “Long, Long, Long” seems like a love song — “How I want you/How I love you/You know that I need you” — but the object of Harrison’s affections was God.
- ‘All I’ve Got to Do’ Main Writer: Lennon. Recorded: September 11, 1963. Released: January 20, 1964. Not released as a single. “Smokey Robinson was like God in our eyes,” McCartney once said.
