"Please Please Me" is a song and the second single released by 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. "Please Please Me" has a diverse history. George Martin has stated that the original version of this song was "rather dreary", was too slow and consequently had little prospect of being the big hit the band were looking for. Martin said, "I was still thinking that we should release their [earlier] recording of "How Do You Do It?"", a previously taped Mitch Murray composition that Martin insisted the Beatles record which he had seriously considered as an alternative debut single instead of "Love Me Do". The group replied that they were only interested in recording their own material. McCartney (who turns 71 today) said: "It was symptomatic of our group that we turned down "How Do You Do It?". Ringo Starr commented: "I remember us all being ready to stand up for the principle of, 'We have written these songs and we want to do them'". George Martin was ultimately sympathetic to their appeals, but said later: "[I] would still have issued "How Do You Do It?" had they not persuaded me to listen to another version of "Please Please Me". Lennon first conceived "Please Please Me" as a bluesy, slow tempo song. Lennon recalled: "I remember the day I wrote it, I heard Roy Orbison doing "Only The Lonely", or something. And I was also always intrigued by the words to a Bing Crosby song that went, 'Please lend a little ear to my pleas'. The double use of the word 'please'. So it was a combination of Roy Orbison and Bing Crosby". Originally it was vocally sparse, did not contain any harmonies or responses, nor did it have the scaled harmonica intro. George Martin claimed he first heard it at the "Love Me Do" re-make session on 11 September and, in his opinion, it "badly needed pepping up" and asked the Beatles to consider making major changes to it, including increasing its tempo. By the time it was brought back into the studio on 26 November 1962, its arrangement had been radically altered, and it took 18 takes to record what George Martin immediately predicted would be their first major hit.

Lyrics:

Last night I said these words to my girl

I know you never even try, girl

C'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon)

Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you

You don't need me to show the way, love

Why do I always have to say "love"

C'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon)

Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you

I don't wanna sound complaining, but you know there's always rain in my heart (In my heart)

I do all the pleasing with you, it's so hard to reason with you, whoah yeah, why do you make me blue

Last night I said these words to my girl

I know you never even try, girl

C'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon), c'mon (C'mon)

Please please me, whoa yeah, like I please you

(Me) Whoa yeah, like I please you

(Me) Whoa yeah, like I please you
