"That Means a Lot" is a song written mainly by Paul McCartney, and credited to Lennon–McCartney. It was released in 1965 by P.J. Proby. Proby's version reached #24 on the NME chart. Prior to the release by Proby, the Beatles recorded a version that was intended for the Help! film and soundtrack album. The Beatles were dissatisfied with the song and their version was not released until Anthology 2 in 1996.

Lennon said at the time: "this song is a ballad which Paul and I wrote for the film, but we found we just couldn't sing it. In fact we made a hash of it, so we thought we'd better give it to someone who could do it well." In an interview with Mark Lewisohn in 1988, McCartney said, "There were a few songs that we were just not as keen on, or we didn't think they were quite finished. This was one of them." --WP

The Beats are an Argentine rock band that emerged as a tribute-band to The Beatles and were named "The Best Beatle Band in the World" in 1996.

Thanks for the downvotes. I thought this was a community devoted to serious Beatles content & discussion, but I guess not.

Back to r/Beatles I go, then.
