Side 2 ~ Track 9 ALBUM: Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967) - The Beatles ========== SONG: When Im Sixty-Four LENGTH: 2:37 Writer(s): Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon-McCartney) * Although the theme is aging, this is one of the first songs McCartney wrote, when he was only 16. * It was on the bands playlist in the earlier days as a song to perform when the amplifiers broke down or the electricity went off. * The song is in the key of D-flat major, but recorded in C-major. At the insistence of McCartney, the master track was sped up in order to raise the key by one semitone (to make his voice sound younger).
