"As a consequence, I was able to meet John and the others face to face. I remember sitting on a bed in the Beatles' hotel room, sipping whisky and coke, the Beatles' favourite tipple at that time. Meanwhile, three Wellington high school girls managed to clamber up a drainpipe in an attempt to meet their idols. While they had to be content with autographs in the corridor, I felt very privileged to have made it into the inner sanctum. It was a funny feeling knowing that because I was related to John, I was doing what thousands of young Kiwi girls would have given an arm and a leg to be able to do. While I was talking to John, the other Beatles walked in. Paul McCartney was amazed at the family resemblance. When it was time to go, John asked me to take care of Aunt Mimi. You could sense the strong bond and love that John felt for Mimi, the woman who raised him. In fact, one of the main reasons the Beatles visited New Zealand was because John knew that his aunt had several relatives out here, and he wanted to give something back to her."
Lynda Mathews, John Lennon's second cousin. ㅡ From the book "Eight Days A Week" by Graham Hutchins.
"Just before the Beatles came to New Zealand in June 1964, John phoned his aunt from Germany inviting her to join them, as he had heard that there were a few 'rellies' over there. This was just a couple of days before they were leaving, and Mimi said she didn't have much of a wardrobe for travelling. Forget that, John told her 'you can buy all you need when we get there.' So Mimi came and while the Beatles were playing she looked up her relations, staying on for a period after the Beatles had departed. In Hamilton she stayed with my parents and I met her there. She was so grateful for the kindness shown to her by these new-found relations and was more interested in finding out all about us than she was in talking about the phenomenal success of the Beatles."
Jack Mathews, John Lennon's second cousin. ㅡ From the book "Eight Days A Week" by Graham Hutchins.

The only logical conclusion: singers have incredible and enviable stamina
In Seven, Jungkook promises intense, mind-blowing action, seven days a week but are all singers/songwriters so confident in their prowess and performance? (7/7)
JK is topping the trending songs in the UK at the moment and the official charts website wrote this about his debut solo song.
So what does Craig David have to say? Well he admits that seven days was a bit too much for him and his lady so they took Sunday off to rest. (6/7)
BTS has also explored this theme. Now the video goes a whole different way (Benny Blanco bless) but Bad Decisions lyrics suggest that the boys are quite conservative in their estimation of their own aptitude and are happy to restrict their activities to the beginning of the week specifically Monday to Wednesday. (3/7)
They're not as conservative as the Cure though. All their activity is reserved for Friday. However, you can't say they don't make the most of that day. "Always take a big bite. It's such a gorgeous sight. To see you eat in the middle of the night. You can never get enough, enough of this stuff, it's Friday, I'm in love" (1/7)
Finally, confidence abounds from the original boy band, everyone's favourite Liverpudlians, The Beatles. These guys have added a whole additional 24 hours to the week. So there you have it John, Paul, George and Ringo incredible and enviable stamina. Watch the girls go wild at Shea Stadium and you'll see what I mean. (8/7)
I think the fab four have it guys.

I’m watching The Beatles documentary, Eight Days A Week again. It is mind numbing on a thousand levels. What still stuns me is the music. The music still overwhelms me. This song highlights their harmonies. Their supernatural harmonies.

I was watching "The Beatles - Eight Days a Week - Touring Years" with Polish lector. And then they qouted John: "Still, in the early days, we didn’t care about lyrics as long as the song had some vague theme… she loves you, he loves him, they all love each other.”
And Polish lector ommited this "he loves him" part. He only translated "she loves you" and "they all love each other".
Just Poland being Poland.
