“That Means A Lot” – Episode 87 with Mary Devlin (beatledirt)

Written By Kenyon Rosewall
 

In this Beatles podcast episode, Mary Devlin joins us for a songwriter’s conversation about That Means a Lot, one of the more interesting Beatles deep cuts. As usual, there is more here than meets the eye, and we have a sharp discussion about songwriting, social media, and Beauty and the Beast.

We cover:

-How That Means a Lot could be Paul's response to Ticket to Ride
-Is there a number of chords you need to have a good song?
-PJ Proby’s version of the song
-The Beatles’ multiple attempts to record the song, including a Beatles first
