Nature in Lyrics Challenge

Welcome to the fourth in the series of Challenges.

 

Between October 1962 and May 1970, The Beatles released 24 singles, 13 EPs, 13 Albums, with a total of 293 tracks.

                                                               NATURE IN LYRICS CHALLENGE

Below is an alphabetical list of nature-related words which appear in officially released Beatles songs.

The Challenge is to find which word appears in which song, or songs.

 

Hints/clues:

Some words appear in more than one song. In these cases, the number of songs in which the word appears is shown in [x].

Some songs contain more than one of the words on the list. In these cases, you need to find each word and post each answer in a separate post.

No "live" recording; BBC sessions; Polydor records; bootlegs; unreleased tracks.

 

Rules:

Please, no googling, wiki, social media, iplayer, youtube, personal record collection [e.g. album sleeves] in search of the answers.

You may submit one answer for one word in one song per post - not two or more songs where the same word appears - and can only post one answer per day.

Entries for Saturday 13 April, and each subsequent night, can be posted between 11pm and midnight. Results, with the number of answers for each word still to be found, will then be posted.

 

 

The list of nature-related words appears in a separate post below:

 

Good luck.

After a PM from @Mi-Amigo, the answer above is not acceptable, as it is not on his list. He has allowed me to post again, so here it is.

WORM = Roll Over Beethoven

I DO NOT WORK FOR O2

Thank you @Bambino for being understanding. That is much appreciated.

 

I couldn`t accept the answer because, although "peaches" is in the song Matchbox, the word is not in the list of words to be found.

 

I should add that "sand" noted as one I found yesterday, had previously been found.

 

I will announce the results for answers submitted today at 11pm.

RESULTS for answers submitted for Sat 27 April 2019:

 

DOG = Matchbox - @jonsie    correct

 

WORM = Roll Over Beethoven - @Bambino  correct.

 

There are still TWO answers on my list of words to find -

 

DOG [1 answer]

 

SEA [1 answer]

 

As the list of found answers is now so long and difficult to copy and paste, I will give details of answers found so far for the two words:

 

DOG = answers found

1 in A Hard Day`s Night

1 in I Am The Walrus

1 in Hey Bulldog

1 in Dig A Pony

1 in Matchbox

 

SEA = answers found

1 in Honey Pie

1 in Yellow Submarine

1 in Octopus`s Garden

 

With the other members having dropped out, @Bambino  and @jonsie  can submit an answer to either DOG or SEA after midnight and up to 11pm tomorrow night, when I will announce the results.

 

Good luck to you both.

 

Mi-Amigo

....and I'm done now!

Plenty of songs with 'see' wink

Reckon that's just about finished it for all of us I think @Mi-Amigo

Either, but it's how the lyric is written, not what's correct that matters.
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
