"You Can't Do That" is a song written by John Lennon and released by The Beatles as the B-side of their sixth UK single "Can't Buy Me Love"
One of Lennon's semi-autobiographical songs, "...['You Can't Do That'] contradicted the genial tone with its tense threats, sexual paranoia and nagging, dragging groove" ... so wrote Robert Sandall.Lennon not only composed, but also played the guitar solo. The recording took nine takes to complete. The song's jealousy theme was re-visited in other Lennon compositions, such as "Run for Your Life" and "Jealous Guy".
With filming due to begin on A Hard Day's Night, film director Dick Lester needed the Beatles to provide him with original material ahead of production, and "You Can't Do That" was selected as one of the songs the Beatles played as part of the Scala Theatre "live performance" scene in the film, but it was dropped for the final cut. At one stage it was considered for the A-side of their next single until McCartney wrote "Can't Buy Me Love".

If you are seeking a new and different explanation of the truth that makes sense, search for 'Truth Contest' in Google and click on the 1st result, then click on 'The Present' and read what it says. This is truth you can check. Go to pg. 59 for a very interesting interpretation of their music.

The Beatles themselves were like other men, but the music they channeled through them contained magic and messages from beyond the mind.

The Beatles were not just musicians; they were prophets.

John's solo is amazingly ahead of its time. His raw, aggressive and almost gestural solos, though rare, anticipate punk and noise-rock bands like the Pixies and Sonic Youth.
