I have expanded the page a little with a relevent quote from McCartney discussing the song in a Rolling Stone interview from October 2005.---- Ally, 9th June , 2006

Could someone add the appropriate inline citation to the Rolling Stone interview? LuciferMorgan 18:52, 18 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Needs another infobox[edit]

OK, there's an infobox for The Beatles' version of the song, but we still need an infobox for The Shirelles version (it's in the name of the article, after all). Democraticmacguitarist (talk) 19:15, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

live version[edit]

i think it should be noted that this song is also on the beatles only real live concert album, live at the hollywood bowl. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.44.230.184 (talk) 19:25, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Title[edit]

As this is both a Shirelles song and a Beatles song, (and I'm trying to track down who sang the French version wrongly credited to Sandie Shaw), shouldn't it be called Boys (Dixon/Farell)? Totnesmartin (talk) 18:04, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Per the music naming conventions at WP:SONG#Naming, songs (and albums) are typically disambiguated by performer, usually by the original performer. Indeed, though, there should be, and is, the redirect Boys (Beatles song). Regards--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:28, 15 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
