| The Beatles - Good Day Sunshine 1966 "Good Day Sunshine" is a song by The Beatles on the 1966 album Revolver. It was written by Paul McCartney, with help from John Lennon, and credited to Lennon/McCartney. Leonard Bernstein praised the song for its construction in a 1967 CBS News documentary. Richie Unterberger of allmusic said the song "radiates optimism and good vibes" and Ian MacDonald said it is "superbly sung by McCartney and exquisitely produced by George Martin and his team" and "displays The Beatles at their effortless best." McCartney said that he was influenced by The Lovin' Spoonful: the song's "old-timey vaudevillian feel" particularly recalls the Spoonful's big hit "Daydream" to which it also shows some harmonic resemblance. * Paul McCartney -- vocal, bass, piano, handclaps * John Lennon -- harmony vocals, guitar, handclaps * George Harrison -- harmony vocal, handclaps * Ringo Starr -- drums, handclaps * George Martin -- piano In other news, I have added the lyrics to this song so you can sing along, or perhaps learn the song! This is how I learned my first Beatles song! Enjoy :) Album: Revolver |
