BEATLES: Every Day of The Week! Quiz

Answer: Sunday

This is a catchy piano number by The Beatles from 1968. It features the spiritual Harrison track "The Inner Light" on the B-side. Written by Paul (who plays the piano) it features all four Beatles singing with their hands cupped around their mouths.

The full lyric is:

"Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace.
See how they'll run."

Answer: She's Leaving Home

Written primarily by McCartney it relays the fictional events surrounding a true story he read in "The Daily Mail". Lennon added the melancholy lyrical pleas from the parents of the young girl, "We gave her most of our lives" and "We gave her everything money could by". Through a strange quirk of George Martin's orchestral prowess none of The Beatles are heard instrumentally on this tune.

Answer: Tuesday

This song is featured in The Beatles' odd television/movie "Magical Mystery Tour". Lennon once recounted partial inspiration for the song from the poem "The Walrus and The Carpenter" by Lewis Carroll. Lennon would reprise the walrus character in his equally bizarre contribution to "The White Album" ("Glass Onion") by teasing fans with the admonition, "Here's another clue for you all, the walrus was Paul"!

Answer: Saturday

Lead vocal is by John who wrote the song- he got the idea from an old poster he bought at an antique shop in Sevenoaks, Kent, when the group was making a promotional TV film for "Strawberry Fields Forever".

Answer: Sunday

The song is rumoured to have been about drug use, or "day tripping". The tune recorded in November 1965 features Lennon and McCartney on lead vox with Harrison doing background vocals.

"She was a day tripper,
Sunday driver, yeah,
It took me so long to find out, and I found out.
Day tripper, yeah."

Answer: Honey Don't

Answer: Monday

The song was written by Paul when The Beatles' self-styled record label, Apple Records, was experiencing financial difficulties. The number fades away and blends into the beginning of Lennon's "Sun King".

Answer: She Came in Through The Bathroom Window

There is some question about whether or not McCartney wrote this tune about the antics of an ambitious and intrusive fan. Many know the very funky version of this song as performed by Joe Cocker.

Answer: Two of Us

This song was actually written by Paul for Mortimer, a teenage singing group from New York. It was recorded by them for their first song on Apple Records but for some unknown reason the record was never released. The number begins with Lennon saying, "I Dig A Pigmy by Charles Hawtry and the deaf aids". Weird, eh? Interestingly, there is no bass guitar on this track.

Answer: Eight

This was probably the first song in rock 'n roll song in history to feature a "fade-in" at the beginning of the record. The catchy song was originally being considered as a single in the UK until John penned "I Feel Fine".
