Okay, Bunyan was known for his strength, skill and speed. Maybe strength could lead to Carry That Weight ?

I have no idea what Paul Bunyan is known for mccartney-shrug_01_gif Could some kind person help a European out?

He was kind of mythical North American lumberjack folk hero, of superhuman size and strength, who achieved many fantastic physical feats, and he was always accompanied by his faithful  sidekick Babe, the Blue Ox. There are several huge whimsical oversized statues of them in various USA locales (pictured one of which I drove past twice last month while travelling), and they were the subject of a 1950s animated Disney short.

Thanks VB for keeping the ball rolling. I remember that cartoon from my childhood. I saw this monument in N Cali last summer (its huge).

Hint 1: Babe the ox does not have any bearing on the lyric or song title I have in mind.

Hint 2: Ron’s comment is aiming in the right direction. I would add what is the source of Bunyan’s strength?

One more guess and I’ll reveal the singer and fab timeline. a-hard-days-night-john-1a-hard-days-night-paul-8ahdn_george_06a-hard-days-night-ringo-7????

Seems a counterintuitive guess for someone so committed to deforestation, but maybe “Mother Nature’s Son ?”

Hint 2: Ron’s comment is aiming in the right direction. I would add what is the source of Bunyan’s strength? Don’t know if this helps, but in my picture of the monument the person in the red shirt by Paul’s boot is 6 feet tall.

That be my song @vonbontee! I’ve thought more about Paul Bunyan and his Tall Tales in the last few days than since I was 5 years old! Funny how he and Babe suddenly appear on family holiday drives. Please collect your hard earned prize VB and lets try another one…

I really want it to be The Songs We Were Singing, but since solo songs don’t count I’m going with

Your Mother Should Know (Let’s all get up and dance to a song That was a hit before your mother was born)

My hot take is that after the Beatles split they went down the paths of spiritualism, solipsism, alcoholism, and Paul McCartney

@Shamrock Womlbs Here is a list of songs and play counts from the 1963 UK tour. I assume I Saw Her Standing There was the opener, but nothing stands out for the “H” notation.

Looks like it was John’s turn to sing when that “H” song came up; and Paul gets a blank space there too…maybe they each got reserved a spot to sing whatever they felt at the moment? Who knows…

…anyways, first two guesses are incorrect.

No x 2:

Your Mother Should Know

Her Majesty

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

Wow, thanks for that link. It seems like there’s a web site for each and every little thing in this world xD

As for the song…what about P.S. I Love You? (treasure these few words, since i think it’s a hand written track list a fan made)
