Welcome to the next in the series of Challenges:

                                      THE ALTERNATIVE TITLES CHALLENGE

 

Some of the well-known Beatles`s songs began with different "working titles"; some UK albums initially had different suggested titles; some UK albums were released in other countries with different titles.

The Challenge is can you identify which alternative title refers to which song, UK album, or UK album released in another country?

Below, in three separate posts, are the alternative titles to:

40 SONGS; 13 UK ALBUMS; and 15 UK ALBUMS released in other countries.

 

Hint: some ALBUMS, released in the UK, had more than one suggested title.

 

RULES: please no googling, wiki, website, social media searches for the answers

You may post one answer from one catagory - Songs; or UK Albums; or UK Albums in other country - in each post but not one from each catagory. You may only post one entry per day.

 

Entries should state which catagory, the alternative title, and what it refers to

[for example, using the famous example "scrambled eggs", which is not in the Challenge, would read:

SONG: "scrambled eggs" = Yesterday ]

 

Entries for each day will be open from midnight until 11pm.

The Challenge will not be open until midnight tonight [Sat/Sun 30/31 March 2019].

Results will be announced at 11pm with a list of answers still to be found in each catagory.

Thanks @MI5 ; @jonsie ; @Cleoriff ; and @pgn for wanting another Beatles Challenge; and I hope that @Glory1 ; and @Bambino will be joining in, too.

 

To give a little more, without giving too much away at this stage, the new one will be on lyrics but, as you have stormed through this one, there is going to be a slight twist in respect of what you will be searching for. Don`t worry - yet - it will all become clearer when its launched. In the meantime, you have to find those pesky answers for this Alternative Titles Challenge.

The results for answers submitted today will be posted around 11pm and you will be able to post your answers for tomorrow after midnight.

 

Oh, and as you are all Beatles fans, I have a surprise in store for next week [not on this thread]. More on this at the end of this week wink

Thanks @Glory1 and @Bambino for saying you`ll join with @MI5 ; @jonsie ; @Cleoriff ; and @pgn ; so the Beatles Six are up for the next Challenge. I am so pleased.

As a bit of a tease, so you can do a bit of homework [and I know you won`t google for hints wink , not that it would help], here`s a clue - the next Challenge will be titled

 

                                                            NATURE IN LYRICS CHALLENGE.

 

Anyway, I`ll let you all consider your entries for this Alternative Titles Challenge after midnight.

And, in case anyone is wondering, neither of the two most difficult ones have been found.

Good luck.

@pgn  Ending = The End has already been submitted by @Cleoriff as an answer for today, so you can submit another answer - as there are only a few answers left to find, please check the list above.

To give you time, I will not post the results to today`s answers until 11pm.

Entries for tomorrow [Thurs] can be submitted after midnight tonight.

Hope that helps.
