55 years ago today, John Lennon and Paul McCartney met for the first time!
The Beatles - And I Love Her
“It was the first ballad I impressed myself with. It’s got nice chords in it, ‘Bright are the stars that shine, dark is the sky…’ I like the imagery of the stars and the sky. It was a love song really. The ‘And’ in the title was an important thing. ‘And I Love Her,’ it came right out of left field, you were right up to speed the minute you heard it. The title comes in the second verse and it doesn’t repeat. You would often go to town on the title, but this was almost an aside, ‘Oh… and I love you.’ It still holds up and George played really good guitar on it. It worked very well.” - Paul McCartney
He had the kind of drive that none of the others possessed. As McCartney told Epstein after the Beatles signed the management contract, he hoped the Beatles would succeed.
“But I’ll tell you now, Mr. Epstein, I’m going to be a star anyway.”
