Eight Days a Week

Should have been a cliche, but for once the cheeriness isn't forced. Beginning with that engine-revving fade-in, John's unusually sunny vocals and hand-clapping are worthy of a revival. Anthology 1's early version of the song substitute wistfulness for high spirits but is quite effective in its own way (How about John and Paul's falsettos on the word "week"?).
