6
songs
From 1967 to 1970, six recordings have it, and 1967 has more of them than any other year, with three. 'When I'm Sixty-Four' came first, 'You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)' last. 'Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!' and 'Your Mother Should Know' have it too, and Paul sings five of the six. On 'You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)': cabaret/lounge section. Of the six, 'Honey Pie' carries vocals on instrumental as well, which only two of their recordings do.
