This was the original title of the Beatles’ second movie; the title changed to Help! after the single was initially released. The album Help! was released on 6 August in the UK and on 13 August in the US.
The song was the third of six number one singles in a row on the American charts, a record at the time, along with “I Feel Fine“, “Eight Days a Week“, “Help!“, “Yesterday“, and “We Can Work It Out“. When the song hit number 1 in the US, the Beatles became the fourth consecutive English group to hold down the top spot, after Freddie and the Dreamers, Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders, and Herman’s Hermits. Thus, the Beatles broke a combined six-week run at the top for Mancunian groups. In 2004, this song was ranked number 394 on Rolling Stone’s list of “The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time”. […]
