1. The Rolling Stones' “I Wanna Be Your Man”
Legend has it that in 1962 The Rolling Stones bumped into John Lennon and Paul McCartney on the street and mentioned they were desperate for a hit single. Lennon and McCartney followed the Stones into a studio and finished writing the song in the corner of the room while Mick, Keith and the boys waited.
"I Wanna be Your Man" was a hit for the Stones, but John Lennon would later admit, “It was a throwaway. The only two versions of the song were Ringo and The Rolling Stones. That shows how much importance we put on it: We weren’t going to give them anything great, right?”
