this song was "good hunching music." I didn't understand at the time what he meant (I was 11). As for the connection to the Beatles, it kinda sounds like "I Saw Her Standing There." But I'm sure that's not it!

Both Lennon and McCartney were influence by the R&B sound and style. One of their favorites?

(10,172 posts)13. Of course I did!
I love the Beatles, and I deliberately used the present tense. I loved them then, and I still love them.
