rdfs:comment
  • "Penny Lane" is a song by the Beatles, written by Paul McCartney.[5] It was credited to Lennon–McCartney. Recorded during the Sgt. Pepper sessions, "Penny Lane" was released in February 1967 as one side of a double A-sided single, along with "Strawberry Fields Forever". The single was the result of the record company wanting a new release after several months of no new Beatles releases. In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked "Penny Lane" at No. 456 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
  • Penny Lane is a daughter of Vicent and Amanda Lane and one of Jane's older sisters. Penny is in her late 20s. Her precise age is unknown; Jane says she's been out of the country for a decade, indicating she's at least 28 unless she dropped out of school (which is quite possible).
  • Penny Lane is a mall on Stephen Avenue downtown. It houses restaurants such as: * Mango Shiva * Zen 8 * La Tavola * Taco Time Cantina * Escoba They also have other retailers such as Angles Hair and Aesthetics. There has been talk that the 90+ year-old building will be torn down to build twin office towers, but not much has happened on this front recently. (e.g. see this article)

  • Beatles producer George Martin has stated he believes the pairing of "Penny Lane" with "Strawberry Fields Forever" resulted in probably the greatest single ever released by the group. Both songs were later released on the US Magical Mystery Tour album in November 1967. In the UK, the pairing famously failed to reach #1 in the singles charts, stalling one place below Engelbert Humperdinck's "Release Me". In the US the song reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a week before being knocked off by The Turtles song "Happy Together". The song features contrasting verse-chorus form and was credited "Lennon/McCartney", although McCartney was the main contributor to the song.

The song features contrasting verse-chorus form and was credited "Lennon/McCartney", although McCartney was the main contributor to the song. Following the success of the double A-side "Yellow Submarine"/"Eleanor Rigby", Brian Epstein inquired if they had any new material available. Both songs, though recorded during the sessions for Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, were left off the album, a decision Martin regretted, although The Beatles usually did not include songs released as singles on their British albums. This was also the first single by The Beatles to be sold with a picture sleeve in the UK, a practice rarely used there at that time, but common in the US and various other countries (such as Japan).
