McCartney Times

‘And I Love Her’ was one of The Beatles’ most touching and sincere numbers. As the central ballad on A Hard Day’s Night, the song established a softer side to The Beatles’ sound and solidified Paul McCartney as the band’s ballad-writing extraordinaire.

“It was the first ballad I impressed myself with,” McCartney told Barry Miles in the book Many Years From Now. “It’s got nice chords in it, ‘Bright are the stars that shine, dark is the sky…’ I like the imagery of the stars and the sky. It was a love song really. The ‘And’ in the title was an important thing. ‘And I Love Her,’ it came right out of left field, you were right up to speed the minute you heard it. The title comes in the second verse and it doesn’t repeat. You would often go to town on the title, but this was almost an aside, ‘Oh… and I love you.’ It still holds up and George played really good guitar on it. It worked very well.”
