Yellow Submarine/Eleanor Ridgy (The single)

Released August 8, 1966 Yellow Submarine only went to #2 partly because the southern states banned the song off their radio stations because of some statement John had made about religion that was stupidly taken way out of context. Eleanor Rigby peaked at #11. Two years later Yellow Submarine was made into a well received animated film, the album was released in 1969. The song also became The Beatles 21st gold record, breaking the record set by Elvis Presley.
