NUMBER 89: "Good Day Sunshine" (McCartney – August 8, 1966)
Revolver CD Version - Track 8
YouTube Video (McCartney)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (sans footnotes/references) –
The song was recorded at Abbey Road 8 June 1966, with overdubs added the following day. McCartney sang the lead vocal and also played bass guitar and piano accompanied by Ringo Starr on drums. Music critic Ian MacDonald was unsure if John Lennon played guitar on the track; in his description of the recording sessions for the song, Mark Lewisohn did not mention a guitar track. Lennon and George Harrison add harmony vocals during the choruses. Lennon can be barely heard repeating "she feels good" after McCartney at 1:27. George Martin played the piano solo, recorded with the tape recorder running slower than usual and thus in the released version the solo sounds faster than it was actually played.
Like "She Said, She Said" the song closes with an imitative canon in the voices.
"Good Day Sunshine" has been played as the wake-up music on multiple Space Shuttle missions. McCartney played the song live to the crew of the International Space Station on November, 13 2005 in the first-ever concert link-up to the space station.
The song is played at Safeco Field, home of Major League Baseball's Seattle Mariners, when the retractable roof is retracted.
