39 Chicago - Colour My World (1wk 39 NEW)

40 Hurricane Smith - Don't Let It Die (7wks 35-17-10-9-15-22-40)

The angry/bonkers Ram album cut which at the time John Lennon famously misheard the line "ketchup, soup and puree, don't get left behind" (well the song is about having a picnic, and its title was the name of a USA squash additive drink), as "catch up super fury (a damning nickname George Harrison gave him for when he lost his temper), don't get left behind" as a pot shot at him. This rocking song has been covered in concert by Jack White featuring Katy Perry (sadly no longer on youtube), and finished in first place on the artist's official website forum for the song missing from the 4CD 67 track edition of Pure McCartney (released 2016), which should have been included.
