(Regarding 'Across The Universe ', Is 'Naked' an officially released album? The song still works as it was released with sound affects on 'No One's Gonna Change Our World'. Are the Anthology albums officially released albums?)

I don't think we can count #8. I was going for different "official" versions released in the 60s while the Beatles were still together. But if you guys think I was too ambiguous in my phrasing, I guess we will have to accept it.
I asked earlier if 'Naked' and the 'Anthology albums were counted as official albums ... and the answer was 'definitely'. It does make it a bit too easy using those albums though! I'm happy to remove #8. 'Across The Universe ', #2, will need to be compared to the 'Nothing's Gonna Change Our World' version, rather than the 'Naked' version.

9. Help ! - The mono mix has an entirely different John lead vocal to the stereo, the tambourine is also missing.

I personally do consider both Naked and Anthology to be "official" Beatles releases despite not being released in the 60s, but am happy for my #2 answer to be changed to be in keeping with the spirit of the round!
