John Lennon wrote the song in early 1959, likely at 251 Menlove Avenue. [1] The early version of the song is heavily inspired by Buddy Holly, [1] and differed substantially from the Rubber Soul version with only the chorus being the same. [2] When Rubber Soul was released in December 1965 it marked the first occurrence of a writing credit for the group’s drummer. When asked about his contribution during a 1966 press conference, Starr joked that he had written “About five words, and I haven’t done a thing since!” In the US, ‘What Goes On’ was released on 21 February 1966 as the b-side of the ‘Nowhere Man’ single.

Personnel

This, it seems to me, is quite simply a song about loving someone who is going through turmoil, who is beset by their own inner “demons” and knows it, but is at the same time unwilling to just open up and reveal “what goes on” inside of them. The authorial persona (the “I” narrating the song) is not only distressed over this, but is in fact on an emotional roller coaster (“one minute up, one minute down…), excitedly agitated (“…fly from side to side…”), probably even vacillating between ecstasy and depression (“see the bells up in the sky / somebody’s cut the string in two…”). They passionately wish to know the beloved’s mind, to know more intimately what the trouble is. They want to offer support, consolation, solidarity in any way possible but, finding they are shut out, the best they can do is to continue to suffer all these emotions in silence, while trying to offer some kind of consolation in the vaguest of generalities–after all, that is really all they have to work with (“lady, be good, do what you should, you know it will work alright…).

It was also recorded by the Feelies on their 1988 album Only Life, Elizabeth Mitchell on her 2006 album You Are My Little Bird, The Screaming Trees on the 2009 compilation album Unpiecing the Jigsaw - A Tribute to The Velvet Underground [5] and the Dils on numerous live albums. The "What Goes On" organ riff was used in the Talking Heads song " Once in a Lifetime," featured on their 1980 album Remain in Light. [4] The Beatles eventually recorded ‘What Goes On’ in a single take on 4 November 1965. The session began at 11pm: it was an unusually late start for the group, and necessitated by the looming deadline for the album.
