By late 1974, Bowie was staying in New York City, where he met John Lennon during his "lost weekend" period of estrangement. Shortly after Lennon reunited with his wife Yoko Ono, the pair jammed together, leading to a one-day session at Electric Lady Studios in January 1975. There, Carlos Alomar had developed a guitar riff for Bowie's cover of "Footstompin'" by the Flares, which Bowie thought was "a waste" to give to a cover. Lennon, who was in the studio with them, came up with the hook when he started to sing "aim" over the riff, which Bowie turned into "Fame" and thereafter, according to Marc Spitz, wrote the rest of the lyrics to the song with Lennon. However, according to Doggett, Lennon made the "briefest lyrical contributions" that was "enough" to give him co-writing credit. Bowie later said that Lennon was the "energy" and the "inspiration" for "Fame", and that's why he received a co-writing credit. Lennon stated in a 1980 interview: "We took some Stevie Wonder middle eight and did it backwards, you know, and we made a record out of it!"

4:20 I doubt very much Lennon was the main writer of "That Means a Lot" ā that song is a track on the Beatles' Anthology 2, sung by PAUL.

Thanks for this video, very informative! Love LOVE both Lennon's and McCartney's talents, and it's so fun to learn they contributed so much to other artists' hits, that's amazing! None of the Lennon-penned tunes came as any surprise to me. But Lennon never had quite as much of a musical head on him, tune-wise, even George Martin said so. Their gifts were: Lennon lyrics - Mac melodies. I've long heard it said you can read Lennon, and you can hum McCartney - I think that's true! But that's why they made such a good team - so awesome!!!!!

Never knew that Keith Moon recorded 'Move Over Miss L.' Only familiar with John Lennon's version. Quite remarkable that the Beatles established Apple Records not only to record their own music, but also help other less well known artists get their music out there. Do not know of any group before or since offhand who has ever done that.

32:55 "I Call Your Name" is not the same song as "I'll Keep You Satisfied".
