The Beatles' song John Lennon thought he should have sung instead of Paul McCartney
Paul tried his hardest to get the vocals right
Paul McCartney and John Lennon didn't always see eye to eye. In the early days of The Beatles, the two would write songs as they sat together in Paul's childhood home on Forthlin Road in Allerton.
However, as they got older and artistic differences emerged within the band in the second half of the 1960s, John and Paul tended to write independently. Often, they would write the basis of a song before presenting it to the other for final tweaks and touches.
Occasionally they would clash and recording sessions for 'The White Album' and what became 'Let it Be' were marked by tempestuous moods, which resulted in Ringo Starr and George Harrison leaving the band for periods. John also shared his disdain for some of Paul's later work with The Beatles, saying he disliked the 1967 album 'Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band', the single 'Let it Be' and the closing medley on 'Abbey Road', which he called 'junk'.
It wasn't just the final songs on 'Abbey Road' that John shared his disdain for. He also wasn't happy with the finished product of 'Oh!
