| | | |
− | ===United Kingdom=== | + | ====Country of Origin==== |

It won an [[Ivor Novello Award]] for the highest certified sales of any single issued in the UK in 1966.

− | ==="Bigger than Jesus"=== | + | ==Characters== |

Despite this, it sold 1,200,000 copies in only four weeks and earned the Beatles their twenty-first US [[Gold Record]] award, beating the record set by [[Elvis Presley]].
