You mean _Backbeat_? Hm, don't remember that detail. As I recall, there
were no actual Beatles songs in the movie, due to copyright reasons --
instead, they had the band singing covers of many of the tunes that the
Beatles went on to cover on their earlier albums. I wonder if the same
copyright laws would apply to lyrics used as dialogue in the film.
