Marmalade was one with Ob La Di and i think there were a few more (?) yet how would that have come about ? Did they not want them ?

Step Inside Love by Cilla Black and World Without Love by Peter and Gordon were both written by McCartney.

When a new Beatles LP came out, there were often one or two cover versions trying to make the singles charts - Cliff Bennett and the Rebel Rousers had a hit with 'Got to get you into My Life', and somebody had a hit with Michelle, and I think someone did 'You've got to Hide your Love Away' too.
They wrote 'World without Love' for Peter and Gordon, too - probabaly 'cos Paul was knocking off Peter's sister.........

The Stones covered 'I wanna be your man' but I think it was an album track.
