It's frustrating to see such simplistic sentences as "Please Mr. Postman, a song by the Beatles." It's not by the Beatles -- I know that's not what was meant by "by the Beatles", but let's adapt a more specific and clear way of describing such things. It's a Motown song co-written by unknown collaborators in Detroit, and it was made famous by the Marvellettes. The Beatles simply covered it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.114.11.162 (talk) 14:31, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
