From my email news feed:

Ariana Grande made music history this week, becoming the first female artist to have songs holding the top three spots on the Billboard Hot 100 charts at the same time. The songs (7 Rings; Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored; and the title track Thank U, Next) have led a dominating performance by the pop star's fifth album, which also broke the record for most simultaneous Top 40 hits, with 11. If that weren't enough, the album crushed Spotify and Apple Music records for highest streaming volume during an opening day. Grande is just the second act ever to grab the top three spots - the first was The Beatles in 1964, when Can’t Buy Me Love, Twist and Shout, and _________________________ topped the charts.


It's too easy to google this. So don't.
Does anybody remember the third song by the Beatles that completed the top three spots?


First off: I'm going to have to check out Ariana's album.
And I assumed that when they qualified her feat with "first female artist" I assumed the Beatles had already achieved it.

But I never would have guessed that third song.

That is a good one, drawing a blank right now but I bet as soon as I see the answer it will be a duh moment.

Edit: Just looked it up an definitely wouldn't have guessed this one

Was going to say Help, but think that came later and the "never would have guessed" comments finalized my thought I was wrong

And will now add my own never would have guessed

Umm...Opel? You're calling Drafter pothead, but your guess was Shake it up Baby, which is actually Twist and Shout.

Won't give it away but will say everyone wrong so far. In spite of Tail's too easy to google claim, I'll be surprised if someone gets it.

Initially I was thinking “Love Me Do” but if SOB sez that ain’t it, then I’ll go with “She Loves You”.

Honestly wish I hadn't looked it up because now I just want to play know it all and spill the beans, but nope, nope and nope

Really though, all the artists in the past 55yrs and Ariana's the one to tie the Beatles? I admit I haven't listened to her but it just feels wrong
