Summary: As John Lennon said, "life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." That lyric is certainly true of us, as we had to take an unexpected hiatus from the podcast. But now we're finally back with a new episode! We had previously analyzed Paul McCartney's contributions to John Lennon's Beatles songs in episode 9, and so for this episode we explore the opposite scenario: Lennon's contributions to McCartney's Beatles songs. We examine the songs that were primarily authored by McCartney, and how Lennon's contribution drastically altered the song. Lennon's contribution can be in the form of an added section, assistance with lyrics, or a vocal or instrumental performance. We explore songs such as "Michelle," "She's Leaving Home," "Honey Pie," and many others. Do you agree or disagree with our song choices? Are there other excellent examples of Lennon's contributions to McCartney's Beatles songs that we may have missed?
