About I'll Be on My Way

"I'll Be on My Way" is a song attributed to John Lennon and Paul McCartney, which was first released on 26 April 1963 by Billy J. Kramer with the Dakotas as the b-side of their single "Do You Want to Know a Secret", a song also attributed to Lennon–McCartney. The single reached number two in the UK charts while "From Me to You" by the Beatles was occupying the number 1 position. According to Lennon, the song was written by McCartney: "This was early Paul." However, there is good evidence that Lennon also contributed to the song. Author Todd Compton attributes it to "McCartney–Lennon." The Beatles recorded a version of the song, first released in 1994 on the Live at the BBC compilation. more »
