The Beatles - Ticket to Ride 1965

Back


"Ticket to Ride" is a song by The Beatles from their 1965 album "Help"! It was recorded 15 February 1965 at Abbey Road Studios and released two months later. In 2004, this song was ranked number 384 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest songs of all time. The song was written primarily by John Lennon (credited to Lennon/McCartney), with Paul McCartney's contributions in dispute. Lennon said that McCartney's contribution was limited to "the way Ringo played the drums".McCartney said that was an incomplete response, and that "we sat down and wrote it together... give him 60 percent of it... we sat down together and worked on that for a full three-hour songwriting session.Lennon said the double-time ending section (with the lyric "My baby don't care") was one of his "favorite bits" in the song. "Ticket to Ride" was released on 9 April 1965 in the UK and 19 April in the U.S. with "Yes It Is" as its B-side, topping the Hot 100 for a week in the US and the UK Singles Chart for three weeks in the UK. The original single's label declared that the song was from the United Artists release Eight Arms to Hold You. This was the original title of The Beatles' second movie; the title changed to "Help" after the single was initially released.
