Track 9 on “A Hard Day’s Night”
What the Beatles said about “I’ll Cry Instead”
JOHN 1980: "I wrote that for ‘A Hard Day’s Night,’ but Dick Lester didn’t even want it. He resurrected ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’ for that sequence instead. I like the middle-eight to that song, though that’s about all I can say about it."
