message: Though "All Together Now" is often rumoured to be the song McCartney composed for use in the worldwide telecast of the UK segment of the Our World TV special, McCartney has never confirmed this. It was recorded six weeks prior to the TV special, and the live broadcast was meant to feature the Beatles finishing the recording of a new song. "Hello Goodbye" is also often rumoured to be McCartney's candidate. Occasionally, "Your Mother Should Know" is, too. Both of those songs were recorded in the months after the special was broadcast.
McCartney has never confirmed what song was meant for Our World, nor has anybody else among the Beatles' inner circle who would have had knowledge at the time. It's unconfirmed if McCartney's candidate song was even ever recorded by the Beatles at all.
The only direct statement McCartney has ever made on the matter confirms that whatever song he had written for the special was not recorded prior to the recording of "All You Need Is Love", which would rule out "All Together Now", since it was recorded six weeks earlier. Some time between the 26 and 30th of June 1967, McCartney appeared on the BBC Radio show Where It's At hosted by Kenny Everett. On the show, he explained how the composition of "All You Need Is Love" came about, and the quote is partially transcribed in Keith Badman's book The Beatles Off The Record. The audio circulates on bootleg as well:
"What happened was, a fellow from the BBC...asked us to get together a song for this [television special]. So we said, 'We'd get one together, with nice easy words, so that everyone can understand it.' So he said, 'Oh, all right then. We'll see you in a couple of weeks.' So we went away, and we just played Monopoly for a bit, and then the fellow said, 'Now where's the song?' So we said, 'Ah! Don't worry, Derek. His name was Derek Burrell-Davis...We'll soon have a song for you.' So John and I just got together and thought and I wrote one, and John wrote one, and we went to the session and we just decided to do his first. By the time that we had done the backing track for John's, we suddenly realised that his was the one, you see. All You Need Is Love, perfect...So we've still got mine ready to do for the next one which is in a similar nature in its simplicity but with a different message."

replies: text: The Lede was still referring to the Our World special - I've altered the wording (hopefully appropriately). Grutness...wha? 23:58, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

message: The cited reference (MacDonald, Ian (2005). Revolution in the Head: The Beatles' Records and the Sixties (Second Revised ed.). London: Pimlico (Rand). ISBN 1-84413-828-3.) does NOT mention a banjo or a triangle at all.
Here is the text of the reference:
[111] ALL TOGETHER NOW (Lennon—McCartney)
 McCartney vocal, acoustic guitar, bass, handclaps; Lennon backing vocal, acoustic guitar, ukelele, harmonica, handclaps; Harrison backing vocal, handclaps; Starr drums, finger cymbals, handclaps
 Recorded: 12th May 1967, Abbey Road 2.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no authoritative reference anywhere stating that Lennon played a banjo or that Starr played a triangle on this track.
Looking at this page's history, it seems that the banjo and triangle edits were made by Nafta0123 on 3 May 2017, and have remained unchallenged despite the fact that he did not provide any supporting reference for such claims. 2A00:23C8:7E0E:9301:AC21:7738:D7FD:FE2 (talk) 03:41, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
