John Lennon in his own write There was no reason for Michael to be sad that morning, (the little wretch): everyone liked him, (the scrab). He'd had a hard day's night that day, for Michael was a cocky Watchower. His wife Bernie, who was well controlled, had wrabbed his norman lunch but he was still sad. It was strange for a man who have everything and a wife to boot. At 4 o'clock when his fire was burking bridelly a Poleasman had clubbed in to parse the time around. 'Goddeven Micahel', the poleaseman speeg, but Michael did not answer for he was debb and duff and could not speeg. March 23 1964 at 09:11am ·

John Lennon I was going home in the car and Dick Lester suggested the title 'Hard Day's night' from something Ringo had said. I had used it in 'In His Own Write', but it was an off-the-cuff remark by Ringo. You know, one of those malapropisms. A Ringo-ism, where he said it not to be funny... just said it. So Dick Lester said, 'We are going to use that title. September 08 1980 at 03:45pm

Bob Dylan They were doing things nobody was doing. Their chords were outrageous, just outrageous, and their harmonies made it all valid. December 23 1973 at 03:00pm
John Lennon We wrote a lot of stuff together, one on one, eyeball to eyeball. Like in 'I Want to Hold Your Hand,' I remember when we got the chord that made the song. We were in Jane Asher's house, downstairs in the cellar playing on the piano at the same time. And we had, 'Oh you-u-u/ got that something...' And Paul hits this chord (E minor) and I turn to him and say, 'That's it !' I said, 'Do it again!' In those days, we really used to absolutely write like that-both playing into each other's noses. September 08 1980 at 03:45pm
Paul McCartney 'Eyeball to Eyeball' is a very good description of it. That's exactly how it was. 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' was very co-written. It was our big number one; the one that would eventually break us in America. April 12 1994 at 11:45am
