The Beatles’ Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band is considering one of the greatest albums of all time. But did you know that one track by Paul McCartney was specifically written for Frank Sinatra? Well it turns out it was When I’m Sixty-Four.
According to The Beatles’ Anthology, Paul said: “When I wrote When I’m Sixty Four I thought I was writing a song for Sinatra.
“I wrote [that] when I was sixteen. It was rather tongue-in-cheek and I never forgot it.
“I wrote When I’m Sixty Four vaguely thinking it would come in handy in a musical comedy or something.”
While Sinatra never sang When I’m Sixty Four, he did cover McCartney’s famous track Yesterday.
