Written by Paul McCartney and attributed to the songwriting partnership of Lennon--McCartney, it was one of their relatively few songs that were never officially released by the Beatles . Several takes of this song were apparently recorded on 26 November 1962 at EMI Studios, although George Martin was dissatisfied with the results . This session has yet to emerge on any of the Beatles bootlegs . </P> <P> Surprisingly, although Quickly's version was released in the UK as Beatlemania was taking off, the single was a flop and proved merely the first of a series of career disappointments for the singer . "Tip of My Tongue" remains one of only two original A-sides written by Lennon--McCartney not to have at least made the UK charts upon its initial release; the other was Peter and Gordon's "I Don't Want to See You Again", which did at least chart in the US, peaking at #16 . </P>

Who sings it was right on the tip of my tongue
