I’ve Got a Feeling – Tom Cox

Send us Fan MailTim welcomes author Tom Cox for a joyful deep-dive into the rooftop rocker I’ve Got a Feeling. They trace Tom’s earliest Fab Four memories (Paperback Writer on the rug, Yellow Submarine with his Liverpudlian nan), his love of that mid-’60s psychedelic sweet spot, and why McCartney’s work ethic and versatility shine here. Together they unpack Lennon–McCartney’s last true collaboration: two half-songs woven into one, Billy Preston’s spark, George’s tasteful lines, Paul’s volcanic “scream” vocal, Dylan-ish wordplay, and those chromatic, energy-lifting runs.Along the way they take in the Get Back tensions, the “loose” Let It Be groove, notable covers, and Tom’s new novel Everything Will Swallow You (with a delicious cameo from the Beatles).Tom Cox – linksWebsite: https://tom-cox.com/Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/dj-acid-reflux.bsky.socialWallflower by RJ McKendree (from Tom’s novel Villager): https://rjmckendree.bandcamp.com/album/wallflowerFollow My Favourite Beatles SongBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/myfavebeatles.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MyFavouriteBeatlesSongInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/myfavouritebeatlessongX (Twitter): https://twitter.com/myfavebeatlesOriginal music by Joe KaneLogo design by Mark Cunningham
