"That was the thing about The Beatles: They never stuck to one style. They never did just blues, or just rock. We loved all music." - John⁠

‘Lady Madonna’ was recorded on two separate days at the beginning of February 1968 - the session had been somewhat hastily arranged. ⁠

“I was writing the words out to learn it for an American TV show and I realised I missed out Saturday; I did every other day of the week, but I missed out Saturday. So I figured it must have been a real night out.” - Paul⁠

"Part of the secret collaboration was that we liked each other. We liked singing at each other. He'd sing something and I'd say, 'Yeah,' and trade off on that. He'd say, 'Nowhere land,' and I'd say, 'For nobody.' It was a two-way thing." - Paul⁠

'Help!' was hurriedly filmed in a single day. The band were supplied with only a plank to sit on, an umbrella and a shower of fake snow.⁠

“The ‘Help!’ single sold much better than the two before it: ‘I Feel Fine’ and ‘Ticket To Ride’. But there were still a lot of fans who didn’t like ‘Help!’ They said, ‘Ah, The Beatles are dropping us. This isn’t as good as ‘A Hard Day’s Night’.’ So you can’t win. Trying to please everybody is impossible – if you did that, you’d end up in the middle with nobody liking you.” - John, 1970 ⁠

"John was always helpful. He said things like, 'When you're writing, try to finish the song immediately, because once you leave it it's going to be harder to complete,' Which is true. Sometimes, anyway." - George⁠
