Eight Days a Week

One from the LOOKING THROUGH THE GLASS ONION Podcast Archives – brought to you by the McGuigan Brothers Podcast.The fall of 1964 was an outrageously busy time for The Beatles. In the midst of live appearances and constant touring, they went into the studio to record Beatles For Sale. Relying on some of their favorite covers to fill out the album, John and Paul were still able to write a few gems - including the song Eight Days A Week. In its brilliant simplicity, Eight Days A Week is classic Beatle rocker. Billy and Jay of course discuss the writing and recording process and they uncover some great deep dive items as well! It's the first pop song with what feature? What Beatles hit surprisingly replaced this song as a single? Did the boys like this song? And just WHO uttered the phrase I've been working eight days a week? So much to uncover in this one! Hold me (clap/clap), love me (clap/clap). HOLD me (clap/clap), LOVE me (clap/clap), enjoy Eight Days A Week!
