Cilla Black - It's For You

This extraordinary record by Cilla Black makes her sound like a queen. Lennon and McCartney wrote this for Cilla, and its as perfect as thing finding a particularly lustrous green beetle under a rock.

Produced by George Martin, the influence of James Bond is particularly evident. Martin also arranged "Goldfinger" in the same year.

If Lennon and McCartney look smug at the end of the song, you can't scarcely blame them. This is a hell of a song to give away.

Enjoy. It's for you.
