He almost co-wrote a protest song with Ron Nasty called “Raise Taxes On Those Rich Capitalist Barstewards Already!” but abandoned the effort ten minutes after his first big Beatles payday.

How did America react when John proclaimed “We’re more popular than pizzas right now”?

It wasn’t much of a plot. Basically just footage of the Beatles and Yoko watching a private screening of ‘Let It Be ‘. There was one awkward scene however, involving a slight row between George and Paul. George could be overheard saying, “If you want butter on your popcorn, I’ll give it to you, or if you don’t want butter, I won’t. Whatever topping on your popcorn that pleases you, I’ll get.”. It went downhill from there.

What was Ringo doing during the infamous “popcorn” scene?

His horoscope told him to ‘beware of the rings’ so George Martin, filled with fear, arranged Andy White instead. However, it became apparent later, that the rings, George Martin should beware of, were no rings one wears at one’s finger but instead referring to telephone calls because he had forgotten to pay his rent and a very angry landlord phoned him a few days after the recording session. 

What did Paul’s father say to Paul, after he had heard She Loves You for the first time, concerning the repeated usage of the word ‘yes’?

Not once does the diversity seem forced -- the genius of the record is how the vaudevillian "When I'm 64" seems like a logical extension of "Within You Without You" and how it provides a gateway to the chiming guitars of "Lovely Rita. - Stephen T. Erlewine on Sgt Pepper's

‘She Thinks You’re The Bees Knees, Daddio’. The influence of Jim Mac’s Jazz Band was undeniable.

Filled with jealousy and thinking an album cover bereft of art would kill album sales, the pair mischievously convinced the boys that a plain white cover for their next album would be a good idea. To this day, Love and Donovan still paul-mccartney-facepalm_gif.

It Won’t Be Long ‘ was influenced by what or by whom?
