With the unquestionable professionalism that everyone has come to expect from this podcast, unfortunately Dizzy Miss Lizzy got posted instead of Yesterday. Entirely JG's fault and he holds his hands up and admits it. Which is nice. So, um, here's Yesterday!

Is one of the best-known songs of all time really worthy of that reputation? Is it possible to discuss the song without lapsing into conversations about cover versions? And is it a song that benefits from being covered anyway?

We wrap up the Help! album this week with the closer, the classic (in some, none, or more sense of the word) Dizzy Miss Lizzy.

Does the song provide a worthy album closer? As the last "proper" rock'n'roll cover version, does it earn its place alongside the likes of "Boys" and "Twist and Shout"? And will tracks like this be missed going forwards?

Time for a bit of folk this episode as JG and Andrew face up to I've Just Seen A Face.

How does the old folk angle work? Would this song have worked in the movie, had it been written in time? And do Simon and Garfunkel comparisons work?

Tell me what you hear this week, other than two people struggling to find mind to say about Help!'s latest efforts to keep us listening, Tell Me What You See.

How Monkeesian is the song? Did John or Paul have much to say about it? And how much of a salvage job can a funky electric piano achieve?

Things take a turn for the meh this week as George - somehow - manages to get a second song released. Does You Like Me Too Much deserve it's mediocre reputation? Does it have any redeeming features at all? And, in fact, is there much to say about it that isn't just shameless vamping until a run-time is hit?

It's Only Love this week, and that is why we are talking about it! Does the song deserve a less-than-glittering reputation? Why is there is a disagreement over Bryan Ferry? And how does the song affect the shape of the album?

It's Ringo's turn to mount the microphone like a bucking bronco (now there's an image for you) with the, let's say, country classic Act Naturally. Is it, in fact, a country classic? Is it a song in need of reappraisal? And how does it compare with the non-Ringo songs on the album?

We turn to the (mean-spirited?) You're Going To Lose That Girl this week as JG and Andrew contemplate another one of Lennon's less-than-progressive lyrics.

Is the song as sour as the lyrics look on paper? Why is this such a giggly episode? What do the Tindersticks have to do with anything? And how long can a diversion go on for before returning to the actual topic at hand? (Answer: quite long!)

It's time for something a little jaunty this week as Another Girl hoves into view. Does the song help pick up the album's pace? Do the lyrics stand up to scrutiny? And can enthusiasm be mustered?

It's George's second go-around on the songwriting carousel this week as - still live and in the same room! - JG and Andrew tackle I Need You.

Is the song a step up from Don't Bother Me? Does the volume pedal (or waaaa-waaa WWAAAA WAAAAA bit if you prefer) work? And how often can the same points be made in a desperate attempt to pad out the running time?

(Also, apologies for JG sounding a bit distant on the audio mix - one of us was rather further away from the mic than the other).
