C is for Can’t Buy Me Love

Can’t Buy Me Love may not be my favorite Beatles song, but it is an important one.  The entire soundtrack – and movie – A Hard Day’s Night is classic.  The video below is just a fun, tiny taste of an entire movie of great music, fun antics, and classic comedy.

Can’t Buy Me Love

 1964

John Lennon/Paul McCartney

Can’t buy me love, love

Can’t buy me love

I’ll buy you a diamond ring my friend
If it makes you feel all right
I’ll get you anything my friend
If it makes you feel all right
‘Cause I don’t care too much for money
For money can’t buy me love

I’ll give you all I’ve got to give
If you say you love me too
I may not have a lot to give
But what I’ve got I’ll give to you
I don’t care too much for money
For money can’t buy me love

Can’t buy me love
Everybody tells me so
Can’t buy me love
No no no, no

Say you don’t need no diamond rings
And I’ll be satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of things
That money just can’t buy
I don’t care too much for money
Money can’t buy me love

Can’t buy me love
Everybody tells me so
Can’t buy me love
No no no, no

Say you don’t need no diamond rings
And I’ll be satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of things
That money just can’t buy
I don’t care too much for money
Money can’t buy me love

Can’t buy me love, love
Can’t buy me love, oh

Can’t Buy Me Love is also a classic 1980s teen movie, using the original Lennon/McCartney song.  I have to admit, as a very young child, I was a fan.  Check out 80s tech in the trailer below.
