Love Me Do Lyrics
WOAH HARMONICA. WOAH CAPITAL LETTERS. WOAH IN GENERAL. WOAH.
well i cant really say this is some of the Beatles' better material.... kinda funny though, to listen to this to see how well they progressed
This is, my friends, a Love Song.
A Song about Love, Love Me Do speaks of fidelity: "I'll always be true". This is about a person who is willing to engage in a mature, two-sided relationship.
Note his manners: he is asking "Please, love me do". He is willing to offer true love, expecting the other person to be able to offer the same thing. But he's not demanding: he politely asks his partner to, please, do the same. Politely.
This is indeed one of the Beatle's most mature lyrics, as it is about a relationship that can come only from maturity and understanding.
P.S. I'm stoned.
I have to say that I agree with frijolito- and I am not stoned! It is as simple as a love song can be. why bother with cliches and confusing cryptic messages? Just put it out there, clear and simple:
Love me do
A simple love song, and a great one too... always makes me feel good listening to it... and I can't resist humming/whistling along to the harmonica parts
better than any coco does it all the time
Hold the caps, please.
If I recall correctly, this was the first US release Paul sang in. Something about John playing the harmonica?
well this is a good beatles song

Okay people, ready? I'm sure you'll think this is insane, but so do i...
My father insists that a man named "Muddy Waters" played the harmonica part in the recording of this song.
I know, he's crazy, John played it. It says that in many books and websites i've read. Andy White played drums instead of Ringo. Why would they tell this, but not that another man played harmonica? Basically, my dad argues that there are no facts against his case. If anyone can find out what a man named Muddy Waters was doing June 2, 1962 i would be ever so appreciative. I know, insane, right?
@regular_freak Muddy Waters is the father of the Blues. As to him playing the harmonica on the track, John Lennon played it but they were all heavily influenced by the big-time Blues players like Muddy Waters... this source even goes so far as to say 'copied' which I don't doubt --https://books.google.com/books?id=PMaszIALuVYC&pg=PA188&lpg=PA188&dq=muddy+waters+harmonica+love+me+do&source=bl&ots=So7XLktTVf&sig=ACfU3U1Scfk7TbIVe1fVoN_fmxcu2azXpQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwid89f6g_7wAhXqm-AKHWFIAu0Q6AEwHnoECCMQAw#v=onepage&q=muddy%20waters%20harmonica%20love%20me%20do&f=false...
