Here we are our SONG OF THE DAY. ABOUT THE SONG: Paul McCartney wrote this song in Hamburg, Germany while The Beatles were the house band at The Star Club, where they spent much of 1962 improving their skills with constant live performances. An early favorite, the band performed the song at their Parlophone Records audition on June 6, 1962. A very early Beatles song, this is a great example of how the group forged a very personal relationship with their fans through songs that spoke directly to the listener. The words "I," "You," "Me" and "Love" show up in many of their early hits, creating a strong connection between band and listener. This was used as the B-side of "Love Me Do," the first Beatles release in England. It was going to be their first single, but Peggy Lee had a song out with the same title so the record company decided to release "Love Me Do" instead. In 2007, a movie called P.S. I Love You was released starring Hilary Swank, Lisa Kudrow and Gerald Butler. Please Please Me is the only Beatles album with the original songs credited to "McCartney/Lennon"; hereafter (and in subsequent releases of this album on CD), they would be credited as the more familiar "Lennon/McCartney."
