John had lifted the first line from a Chuck Berry song (not unusual in those days). But when he played it for Paul , he was also using the same rhythm and style, so it sounded very much like Chuck Berry's song. Paul told him that we need to get away from that. That's when he came up with the opening bass notes and new rhythm. It changed the whole character of the song which was a better fit for John's amazing lyrics. This has always been my favorite Beatle "fun" song.&nbsp;</FONT></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Sat, 24 Jul 2021 17:56:10 GMT MaVolta 2021-07-24T17:56:10Z First Notes https://community.aarp.org/t5/Rock-N-Roll/First-Notes/m-p/2414688#M201755 <P>Songs you know as soon as the the first note or chord is played.</P><P><BR />I’ll start with Lola by The Kinks</P> Sun, 20 Jun 2021 22:52:23 GMT https://community.aarp.org/t5/Rock-N-Roll/First-Notes/m-p/2414688#M201755 Raynyky 2021-06-20T22:52:23Z Re: First Notes https://community.aarp.org/t5/Rock-N-Roll/First-Notes/m-p/2414693#M201760 <P><FONT size="5"><EM>Eight days a week &nbsp;
