"To Know Him Is To Love Him" - Cover Version
"The Beatles" 來自英國 Liverpool 利物浦, 當時的鼓手仍然是 Pete Best。1962年一月, 樂隊在當時的 West German 西德 Hamburg 漢堡 Star-Club 演唱之後, 在 Decca Records 唱片公司亦以 "To Know Him Is To Love Him" 作試音的歌曲, 完成錄音之後, 並沒有印製唱片。
愛 的 頌 歌
十五年之後, "The Beatles"一張德國版的雙唱片專輯 "Live! At the Star-Club in Hamburg, Germany 1962" 於1977年五月面世。原來在專輯當中, 他們把 "To Know Him Is To Love Him" 歌曲名字和歌詞內的 "HIM" 全改為 "HER", 成為由男士演繹, 給女士一首愛情的頌歌。

1962年八月, Ringo Starr 加入樂隊之後, 翌年, "The Beatles" 再重新錄製此曲, 而錄音聲軌亦衹用在電視台節目演出之用而已。這個版本, 經三十二年之後, 在一張1994年的專輯 "Live at the BBC - Pop Go The Beatles" 重見天日, 歌曲由 Paul 與 John 同演繹。

"TO KNOW HER IS TO LOVE HER" The Beatles - August 1963 Recording
Chorus: Paul McCartney
To know, know, know her, is to love, love, love her
Just to see her smile, makes my life worthwhile
Yes, just to know, know, know her is to love, love, love her
And I do, And I do, And I do
Verse 1: Paul McCartney
I'll be good to her, I'll make love to her
Everyone says there'll come a day, when I walk alongside of her
Chorus: Paul McCartney
Yes, just to know, know, know her, is to love, love, love her
And I do, And I do, And I do
Refrain: John Lennon
Why can't she see? How blind can she be?
Someday she'll see that she was meant just for me, oh, oh
Chorus: Paul McCartney
To know, know, know her, is to love, love, love her
Just to see her smile, makes my life worthwhile
Yes, just to know, know, know her, is to love, love, love her
And I do, And I do, And I do
Refrain: John Lennon
Why can't she see? How blind can she be?
Someday she'll see that she was meant just for me, oh, oh
Chorus: Paul McCartney
To know, know, know her, is to love, love, love her
Just to see her smile, makes my life worthwhile
Yes, just to know, know, know her, is to love, love, love her
And I do, And I do, And I do
TO KNOW HER IS TO LOVE HER - John Lennon
原來 John Lennon 亦早於1973年把此曲以個人演繹和收錄下來, 之後再没有任何安排, 直至他去世後六年,
在一張紀念 John Lennon 的專輯 "Menlove Ave." 當中, "To Know Her Is To Love Her" 以不同風格的演繹, 於1986年十一月同公諸於世, 帶給樂迷一番追憶。

"TO KNOW YOU IS TO LOVE YOU"
Peter & Gordon 1965年, Brian Hyland 1967年, 和 Bobby Vinton 1969年的翻唱版本, 以棄用歌詞中的 "HIM" 或 "HER" 而改以直接對你 "YOU" 的剖白, 同樣大受樂迷歡迎。1987年, Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt 和 Emmylou Harris 三人合唱的 "To Know Him Is To Love Him", 亦把此曲打進美國 "Country Single Chart" 鄉謠單曲榜上。至今在音樂資訊平台有記錄, 包括 "HIM", "HER" 和 "YOU", 不同風格、男女歌手的翻唱版本達八十個, 不同外語版本有十二個, 一首 "LOVE 愛" 的頌歌。
