Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay uses a the line in the title, quoted from “Oh! Darling,” a song on the Beatles’ Abbey Road album, as a prompt to catalog and analyze the song’s sources and inspirations in earlier 12/8 meter rhythm and blues songs. The author then traces its emergence from previous Beatles songs in 12/8, and its differences and similarities to earlier compositions that involve anger and crying. Last, it shows how the song occupies a pivotal position in Abbey Road’s journey through the multifarious forms of love.
