What girl's name is the title of a song on the Beatles album 'Rubber Soul'?
'Michelle' is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1965 album 'Rubber Soul'. It was composed principally by Paul McCartney, with the middle eight co-written with John Lennon. The song is a love ballad with part of its lyrics sung in French.
Following its inclusion on 'Rubber Soul', the song was released as a single in some European countries and in New Zealand, and on an EP (Extended Play) in France, in early 1966. It was a number 1 hit for the Beatles in Belgium, France, Norway, the Netherlands and New Zealand. Concurrent recordings of the song by David and Jonathan and the Overlanders were similarly successful in North America and Britain, respectively. 'Michelle' won the 'Grammy Award' for 'Song of the Year' in 1967 and has since become one of the most widely recorded of all Beatles songs.
The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960, comprising John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. They are regarded as the most influential band of all time and were integral to the development of 1960s counterculture and the recognition of popular music as an art form. Rooted in skiffle, beat, and 1950s rock 'n' roll, their sound incorporated elements of classical music and traditional pop in innovative ways.
