The lip synced promo video from the variety show The Music Of Lennon and McCartney.
"Day Tripper" is a song by The Beatles. Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, it was released as a double A-side single with "We Can Work It Out". Both songs were recorded during the sessions for the Rubber Soul album. "Day Tripper" topped the UK Singles Chart and the song peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100.Under the pressure of needing a new single for the Christmas market, Lennon wrote most of the lyrics and the famous guitar hook, while McCartney helped with the verses. "Day tripper" was a typical play on words by Lennon: "Day trippers are people who go on a day trip, right? Usually on a ferryboat or something. But [the song] was kind of . . . you're just a weekend hippie. Get it?" In the same interview Lennon said, "That's mine. Including the lick, the guitar break and the whole bit." In his 1970 interview with Rolling Stone, however, he used "Day Tripper" as one example of their collaboration, where one partner had the main idea but the other took up the cause and completed it. For his part, McCartney claimed it was very much a collaboration based on Lennon's original idea.

John, Paul, George, and Ringo knew how to tease us not only with their fine looks, but with their fine music!

The Beatles weren't very attractive men,none of them is really tall.Paul was the only one who could be called handsome.

[Mario Podolsky]

For the true meaning of The Beatles' songs there is no need to listen to the lyrics backwards or take drugs. Just google "Truth Contest The Present" and read through the Beatles section (pg 59).

Would rather see live recording either on stage or in studio. Interesting still, though.

Wild ! Have never seen this before now. Trollong the music stuff on YouTube frequently enough, and I'm still finding footage I ain't seen before thus. And it ain't as if I ain't seen plenty of Beatles stuff before now. The dancing girls motif was scored into this [ the start ]. Pretty well cafted and executed, although I would surmise that the same motif with The Hollies - I'm Alive was much better on this score. Because that was unreal. In fact, I'm gonna have another look at that now.
