Every Little Thing

This is the third in a series of blog entries about songs picked at random from my itunes library. For the post on last week's song, "No Surprises" go (here) for "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds (Love Version)" try (here).

This week's song is an Early/Mid Beatles Tune, "Every Little Thing."

I remember the first time I heard this song... OK, not really, but there is one thing I'm sure of, this entry will not be very long even though I plan to tell you every little thing I know about this song. I can't stop thinking about it now ;)

Now, in no particular order, a list of things I know about "Every Little Thing" without having to look anything up:

1. I once made a fake Beatles fan-newsletter for some reason to send to a friend of mine who was away at school and I titled it after this song, which I thought was a vastly clever title. The one real Beatles fan newsletter I knew about was called "Good Day Sunshine" which is an OK title.

2. There is a Japanese band called Every Little Thing (or ELT) but I don't know if the name has anything to do with this song. Also, it's been about four years since I have heard anything about Japanese music, so I don't know if they are still together.

3. This is kind of an unusual Beatles song in that Paul wrote it, but John sings it. (Usually they sang their own songs).

4. Ringo plays some kind of weird drum on this. I recall reading about it somewhere and also you can hear it.

5. This was on the album Beatles for Sale which was their fourth album.

This is a good song; I like it. It's not my favorite song or anything. Well, were you expecting this put-my-itunes-on-shuffle experiment to shell out nothing but the hits?
