Sorry to be a killjoy, but #s 2 & 3 feature one instrumental break in the middle and one long outro to close the song.So far, I can think of four Beatle songs and two solo songs which fit the bill. I should point out that quickie ad-lib voices or screams during an instrumental break are ok such as Ringo’s “I feel fine” during Honey Don’t . Also ok are background wordless voices.

Seems a little nit-picky to me. How long of and instrumental break is required to be valid?
In She’s so Heavy, there are 2 short (about 10 sec) instrumental interludes that transition the ‘I want you” lines to the “she’s so heavy’ lines @ ~ 0:55 and 1:45.
Anyway, it’s a game. I’ll wait for the next one to start.

I don’t think brief guitar riffs count as instrumental break. I wouldn’t count Day Tripper for the same reason. I’m thinking of two or more instrumental breaks that sound distinctive from the main verses. But I guess this is subjective and others might disagree. Anyway,, I’ll add another one from the early days.
