"I'm a Loser" is a song by The Beatles originally released on Beatles for Sale in the United Kingdom and on Beatles '65 in the US. Written by John Lennon, and credited to Lennon/McCartney, it was considered for release as a single until Lennon wrote "I Feel Fine".



According to music critic Richie Unterberger, while the lyrics tell a story of romantic rejection, "I'm a Loser" is one of the first Beatles compositions that "goes beyond young love" including "the hypocrisy of keeping up a happy face when your world's falling down".



The Beatles recorded this song on 14 August 1964, the same day as "Mr. Moonlight" and "Leave My Kitten Alone". It was recorded in eight takes with no overdubs.

* John Lennon -- vocal, acoustic rhythm guitar, harmonica

* Paul McCartney -- harmony vocal, bass

* George Harrison -- lead guitar

* Ringo Starr -- drums, tambourine
