https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ox0p9chV6WM Written during a holiday in the Bahamas in 1964, McCartneys Things We Said Today takes a slightly sombre look at his love affair with Jane Asher. While on a yacht with Asher, Ringo Starr and Starr's future wife Maureen, McCartney retreated below deck to knock out this thoughtful love song. The song shifts between minor and major keys and from ballad to rock as McCartney explores a concept he came to call 'a future nostalgia' imagining how the couple will look back on that days conversations in the future. The track shivers to life with Lennons rhythm guitar and Starrs high-pace backbeat. It is a showcase for McCartneys maturity as a songwriter and it is remarkable that he could write with such poignancy so early into his songwriting career. The song featured on the b-side of the single A Hard Day's Night.
