At number 15 on Rolling Stone's list is the title track to the movie Help, recorded in 1965. What actor from Only Two Can Play was originally supposed to star in the madcap film?

Answer Peter Sellers

Peter Sellers actually had a long history with the Beatles. It was Sellers who presented the Beatles with the Grammy Award in 1965 for Best Performance of a Vocal Group. Sellers, in typical fashion, referred to it as the 'Grandma Award’. Sellers pre-taped this presentation on the studio set of Help!, a film script that he was presented and turned down.
