The Beatles’ producer George Martin wanted ‘How Do You Do It’ to be The Beatles’ debut single. They reluctantly recorded it, but eventually convinced Martin to release ‘Love Me Do’ instead.
‘How Do You Do It’ was by Mitch Murray, a budding English songwriter. Martin’s deputy Ron Richards first heard the demo, and suggested that an up-tempo version would be a chart success.
At the time, Martin was unconvinced by the quality of John Lennon and Paul McCartney’s own songwriting, just as he was unsure of Ringo Starr’s drumming. Having taken a chance by agreeing to release a Beatles single, he was under an obligation as an EMI producer to ensure it sold well.
The Beatles knew that their credibility as musicians, particularly in Liverpool, would be adversely affected by such a breezy pop song, and persuaded George Martin to release ‘Love Me Do’ instead of ‘How Do You Do It’. Martin still considered releasing the song as the follow-up to ‘Love Me Do’, convinced of its potential.
‘How Do You Do It’ was eventually released by Gerry and the Pacemakers in March 1963. The group’s debut single, it topped the UK singles charts for three weeks, before being deposed by The Beatles’ ‘From Me To You’.
The Beatles’ version surfaced on bootlegs in the 1970s, and was eventually released in 1995 on Anthology 1.
In the studio
Although The Beatles diligently recorded ‘How Do You Do It’ on 4 September 1962, they didn’t put too much effort into it. It was dashed off quickly at the start of the session, in order to spend more time on ‘Love Me Do’.
The session began at 7pm, following a studio rehearsal between 2.30 and 5.30pm. In that time they practised six songs, including ‘How Do You Do It’.
It is unknown how many takes were recorded, but a mono mix was made later that evening, from take two. George Martin made acetates of this and ‘Love Me Do’, so that he and Brian Epstein could decide the next day which song should be The Beatles’ debut.
Lyrics
How do you do what you do to me?
I wish I knew
If I knew how you do it to me
I’d do it to you
How do you do what you do to me?
I’m feeling blue
Wish I knew how you do it to me
But I haven’t a clue
You give me a feeling in my heart, ooh la la
Like an arrow passing through it
I suppose that you think you’re very smart
But won’t you tell me how do you do it?
How do you do what you do to me?
I wish I knew
If I knew how you do it to me
I’d do it to you
You give me a feeling in my heart, ooh la la
Like an arrow passing through it
I suppose that you think you’re very smart
But won’t you tell me how do you do it?
How do you do what you do to me?
I wish I knew
Wish I knew how you do it to me
But I haven’t a clue
Wish I knew how you do it to me
I’d do it to you
Wish I knew how you do it to me
I’d do it to you

The recording of “How Do You Do It” is a testament to how professional The Beatles were even at this early stage in their career. They didn’t like the song (with good reason) and yet they did a fantastic job recording what would easily have been their first #1 hit single as surely as it was for Gerry & The Pacemakers. Their version is naturally superior to the Pacemakers’…
I’d have to agree. Even though they didn’t care for it, I think the Beatles’ version is much better than Gerry and The Pacemakers’ version. Gerry’s version sounds a little forced & rushed to my ears.
Personally, I would refer to “forced & rushed” as “energetic”, something the Beatles version is sorely lacking. They didn’t want to do the song and it shows. (I really like Gerry Marsden’s version).
Is Ringo or Alan on the drums? I Am not sure
That’s Ringo from September 4th 1962. Andy was only on the session a week later.
One of their finest early songs. It should have been a single.
John’s voice is surperb on this song and gives an enthusiastic performance!
This is a great song that should have been released years ago. Breezy pop song? They released Hello, Goodbye & Maxwell’s Silver Hammer which although very good songs, much more trite than How Do You Do It. What were the Beatles thinking?
At the time The Beatles were trying to push their own songs, their “brand.” pretty brazen for an almost unheard of group. They could have fallen flat on their faces and never been heard of again. It took guts (and the guidance of George Martin) to make it work. And did it ever!
Duder, this was 1962 before they ever released anything
Love Me Do may not be the greatest of songs, but it’s certainly not ‘breezy’. As Paul said, LMD has a blues base, which makes it wholly different from HDYDI. Now, the Beatles did put out a few singles that could be called breezy, but they generally tried to stay away from the ultralight stuff, even the ones they wrote themselves. Example- They gave away World Without Love because they thought it was too breezy and corny.
It just seems that way now. Back then, Love Me Do sounded pretty tough.
I Have a 7 inch demo acetate of “love me do” on a white label typed with group name being “THE BEETLES”. It’s a 45rpm mono no year or other details except timing. I bought it from a London dj who bought it from a reputable London record store which said it had come from a customer in Liverpool who found it in a Liverpool pub. Which pub I don’t know, if story genuine I don’t know either. Trying to find some light on the matter.
Hi, I know it’s 6yrs later if you get this message but I also bought a 7″ mono acetate with a typed beetles label on of “How do you do it” from a London dj bbc who had bought this from a reputable dealer in soho who had received it from the pub in Liverpool. Now either these are ripoff bootlegs or coincidence. I can’t find anything anywhere that describes these as a bootleg and have been looking for 6yrs or so and found no info. Another coincidence my name is Peter!
Had the Beatles released “How Do You Do It” as their debut single, it surely would have gone to number 1, but the fact that they didn’t write it and it wasn’t their style may have adversely influenced their reception on subsequent releases. Of course, we’ll never know, but the fact that they were a self contained unit of writing, singing and playing their A-sides might have been tarnished by that one song. Gerry & the Pacemakers dispensed with the “Ooh la la” backup vocals. Otherwise it’s the same arrangement.
Gerry’s version is “rockier” than either Murray’s demo or the Beatles’ version. Slightly faster tempo and more strident rhythm guitar playing. Gerry sings it in a stronger voice than either of the other two as well.
All that said, I still love the Beatles version, and it certainly had the makings of a hit, had it been released. But while I understand their resistance to having their first single be a cover, I think the cheesiness factor doesn’t hold up, considering some of the cheesy songs they wrote themselves not long after, From Me to You being a great example.
The Beatles may have done a professional job with How Do You Do It, but it does not sound like a Beatles song. It lacks energy, which I believe was done deliberately by the boys to dissuade George Martin releasing the song. As others have noted above, Gerry Marsden rocks the song like he wanted to actually record it without having his hand twisted behind his back. History shows that the Beatles and the Pacemakers both made the correct decision with the song. I wonder how many hit songs Mitch Murray wrote?
The first bootleg I bought (in the mid ’80s) was a 7″ 45 rpm single on red transparent vinyl with How Do You Do It? on one side and the promo film version of Revolution (with the live ‘shoo be doo wop’ vocals) on the other. Until then, the only thing I’d heard about the song was that Martin had wanted them to record it but they refused. It was a nice find!
Just heard it on a oldies radio station where i live in Spain, could’nt for the life of me get the vocals. So the web was contacted!, well!, blow me down with a hair dryer and put me in curlers, ‘THE BEATLES’. Good vocals but blatently no enthusiasm. Glad they stuck to thier guns. The rest as they say……………
When I hear the Anthology version, I’m glad the Beatles released Please Please Me instead. How Do You Do It could have been suitable for a B-side or an album filler.
For years I thought this song was a Beatle song that was used to kick-start all those Liverpudlian groups like Gerry’s (such as the Merseybeats, the Fourmost, Cilla, etc). Ah well…
Mitch murray was ahead of his time when you consider that he could not have been influenced by the mersey sound when he wrote How do you do it!
And yet the song was very merseyish in sound..
It is now well known from Mark Lewisohn’s book, All These Years, from 2013 that George Martin had nothing to do with this song not being released, and that he let the Beatles believe that they talked him out of recording it in favour of one of their own songs. In the week between their recording sessions on 4 September 1962 and 11 September 1962, both Mitch Murray and Sid Coleman from Ardmore & Beechwood, who were publishing the single, put an end to it. Murray thought the Beatles version was a “piss take” and Coleman didn’t like it. Martin was told that the Beatles first single had to have Lennon-McCartney songs, and that is what happened. Not his decision, nor was signing the Beatles to Parlophone in the first place. Time to stop perpetuating the myths.

Содержание
История
Согласно биографу «Битлз» Хантеру Дэвису, в 1962 году к музыкальному издателю Дику Джеймсу обратился сын его друга с предложением взять песню How Do You Do It?, которую он не смог пристроить в другом месте. Издательство Дика Джеймса к тому времени работало уже около года и остро нуждалось в потенциальных хитах. Почувствовав хитовый потенциал песни, Дик Джеймс обратился к своему старому товарищу по фирме «Парлофон» музыкальному продюсеру Джорджу Мартину, с которым работал как певец ещё в середине 50-х. Джордж Мартин также высоко оценил песню и предложил её к исполнению группе «Битлз», с которой только начал работать. «Битлз» песня не понравилась, так как группа была сосредоточена на сочинении собственного материала. Тем не менее 4 сентября 1962 года «Битлз» сделали черновую запись композиции в качестве варианта для заглавной песни их дебютного сингла. Как известно, дебютным синглом «Битлз» стал Love Me Do, но Джордж Мартин продолжал настаивать на выпуске группой How Do You Do It? до тех пор, пока они не принесли собственную великолепную песню Please Please Me.

В песне нет слова «шизгара». Такого слова вообще не существует. Солистка Маришка Верес поёт фразу «She’s got it» («она это получила», в контексте значит нечто вроде «В ней что-то есть.
В 2008 году песня стала известна за рубежом, благодаря тому, что она включена в саундтрек к популярной компьютерной игре GTA IV. Её можно услышать на волне вымышленной радиостанции Vladivostok FM.
Песня начинается с того, что Маккартни отсчитывает «one, two, three, FOUR!». Обычно это вырезалось с записи, но этот фрагмент Джордж Мартин оставил на записи, посчитав его «цепляющим». Причём.
Песню хотел записать Элвис Пресли, но он при этом хотел выкупить половину прав на песню. Долли Партон отказала ему, и была вознаграждена много позже, когда песня в исполнении Уитни Хьюстон принесла.
Вокалист группы Эксл Роуз (Axl Rose) и бывший на тот момент участником группы гитарист Иззи Стрэдлин (Izzy Stradlin) были влюблены в одну и ту же девушку. Когда девушка предпочла Иззи, она при встрече сказала.
Группа работала над песней во время живых концертов в лос-анджелесском клубе Whiskey-A-Go-Go, где постоянно работали в 1966-м. Им нужно было играть два сета за вечер, поэтому они были вынуждены растягивать.
Cуществовал второй вариант второго куплета, который забраковал Холстинин:
Ты отдаешь все, что есть,
Тем, кто приходит в твой дом,
Но ты одинока, как перст,
Даже когда мы вдвоем…
В студии во время записи Джон имел весьма смутное представление об аранжировке, высказав пожелание продюсеру, что хотел бы изменить голос таким образом, чтобы он напоминал пение Далай Ламы.
