Like "Help!" this song kicks off with the chorus at Martin's suggestion. George Harrison dreamed up the spot-on harmonies; Martin found them "corny," but the band overruled him. When McCartney's father heard the song, he said, "Son, there are enough Americanisms around. Couldn't you sing, 'Yes, yes, yes,' just for once?" McCartney said, "You don't understand, Dad. It wouldn't work."
