songs
It turns up on fifteen recordings, from 1963 to 1970, almost the length of their recording life. The first is 'A Taste of Honey' and the last 'I Me Mine'. Every one of those years has some. John sings lead on six of them, Paul on four and George on two. Three of them share it on 'Because'. Among them, 'Wait' is in F♯ minor, and only two of their recordings are.
