You Like Me Too Much

"You Like Me Too Much" is a song by The Beatles written by George Harrison, that was recorded on 17 February 1965. It was first released on the Help! album in the United Kingdom and on Beatles VI in the United States, both in 1965.

There is an introduction using piano and electric piano, with Paul McCartney and George Martin playing two different piano parts on separate ends of the same Steinway grand piano. The Steinway appears only in the song's intro and was overdubbed separately, as were McCartney's bass and Harrison's vocal overdubs. The electric piano is a Hohner Pianet, played by John Lennon, and you can hear the instrument's tremolo being switched off after the intro. The piano introduction was later used by Bob Dylan for his song "Temporary Like Achilles".

It was one of the two songs on Help! written by Harrison, with the other being "I Need You". Help! was the first album since the 1963 release of With the Beatles to include songs written by Harrison.
