John Lennon reportedly admired Paul McCartney’s 1964 Beatles song ‘Here, There and Everywhere’ so much that he felt jealous of it, calling it “damn fine”. The remark highlights the competitive but creatively productive partnership between Lennon and McCartney, whose contrasting songwriting styles helped define the Beatles’ output.

Although the article’s title refers to 1964, ‘Here, There and Everywhere’ was recorded and released in 1966 on the album Revolver. McCartney wrote the ballad, drawing inspiration from the Beach Boys’ harmonies, while Lennon later praised it as one of McCartney’s strongest songs.
