The Beatles had a few professional rivals throughout their years in the music industry, with The Rolling Stones being one of the biggest. But the Fab Four were also fans of the music produced by the artists they were "against". John Lennon in particular was a staunch supporter of the music that he enjoyed.

In 1965 Lennon listened to a track from The Beach Boys while being interviewed, and he adored it.


Lennon was given the chance to listen to The Beach Boys' track, The Little Girl I Once Knew, while discussing music. And the iconic Imagine singer leapt into action. He exclaimed: "This is the greatest!. Turn it up, turn it right up! It’s got to be a hit. It’s the greatest record I’ve heard for weeks. It’s fantastic. I hope it will be a hit."
