songs
Ten recordings have it, from 1964 to 1970. It sits thickest on Rubber Soul, three of its fourteen tracks. 'I'll Be Back' came first, 'I Me Mine' last. 'Things We Said Today' and 'Wait' have it too, and John sings seven of the ten. It goes quiet after 1966 and comes back in 1969 for 'Come Together'. The lead vocals go John on four, Paul on two and George on one. Of the ten, 'Girl' is in F minor, one of only two of their recordings in that key.
