This is probably the first song I heard and loved by the Beatles. Those opening drums are so dramatic and the harmonies and the wooos!! and the yeah yeah yeahs, it is the British Invasion right there in one song. I remember finding the "apologize to her-er-er" bit oddly awkward and funny. Then it ends on that cool 6th chord or whatever it is. I imagine how thrilling it must have been for so many teens to hear this back in 1963. How could any kid back then hear this song and not go crazy with excitement and start jumping around the room? I'd be walking to school with that one in my head.
