The Beatles began recording "She Loves You" on a tour bus in England in late June 1963. They recorded it on July 1, 1963, less than a week later. The "yeah, yeah, yeah" line in the chorus became one of the most memorable of the Beatles' career. "She Loves You" was released in the UK August 23, 1963.

With massive advance orders fueling its rise on the UK pop chart, "She Loves You" hit #1 in September and spent a total of 18 weeks in the top 3. It ranks as the Beatles' all-time bestselling single in the UK having sold nearly two million copies.

"She Loves You" was first released in the US on September 16, 1963. It received a positive review in Billboard but failed to gain interest from radio DJs. The song also received a lackluster response when featured on American Bandstand's "Rate-a-Record."
