When he was a boy, John Lennon was reprimanded regularly for chewing gum in school. Eventually, he finished with school, but not with gum. Watch videos of his performances with the Beatles and you'll spot him chewing between verses of a song. The most obvious instance is the 1967 BBC broadcast of "All You Need Is Love," but there are others. In some early Beatles footage, you'll catch Ringo Starr playing the drums and chewing, too.

The Beatles' "All You Need Is Love" opens with a passage from which national anthem?

A) "God Save the Queen"

B) "Hail to Thee, Nicaragua"

C) "La Marseillaise"

D) "The Star-Spangled Banner"

Previous answer: White Diamonds is a fragrance created for Elizabeth Taylor.
