abstract
  • "Please Please Me" is a song and the second single released by English rock group the Beatles in the United Kingdom, and the first to be issued in the United States. It was also the title track of their first LP, which was recorded to capitalise on the success of the single. It was originally a John Lennon composition, although its ultimate form was significantly influenced by George Martin. John Lennon: "Please Please Me is my song completely. It was my attempt at writing a Roy Orbison song, would you believe it? I wrote it in the bedroom in my house at Menlove Avenue, which was my auntie's place". (David Sheff. John Lennon: All We Are Saying). The single was released in the UK on January 11, 1963 and reached No. 1 on the New Musical Express (the most recognized chart at the time) on February 22, as well as Melody Maker where it was Number 1 for two weeks. However, it only reached No.2 on the Record Retailer chart, which was subsequently evolved in the UK Singles chart and because of this it was not included on the multi-million selling Beatles compilation, 1. The single, as initially released with "Ask My Why" on the B-side, failed to make much impact in the US, but when re-released there on January 3, 1964 (this time with "From Me To You" on the B-side), it reached number three on the Hot 100.
