Has the song "Tell Me Why" been done by any other artists? Who wrote it?
In my search I find the song name "Tell Me Why" done by several different artists.

Dude, chill out. You're not required to do squat. Next time just ignore a post you don't like. No need to apologise for anything. You asked a question and this is bigger then it needs to be. How about we just let it go now?

you arent going to last long in this forum with an attuide like that. We all teach each other and help each other on here. No one talks down to people like you have done in 7 of you 8 posts. Man would you like it if we all started callin you names and treating you like an idiot? Bowlfreshner has a dry sense of humor, i guess you dont get that and am sorry read more of his posts and you might get it. You are new, this is not the best way to make a good first impression

That's the Tell Me Why that I know. Then again I'm old and remember when the world was black and white like a good noir film.

Fun Facts:
it was written by John Lennon in either Paris or New York[1], it was completed in only eight takes on Thursday, 27 February 1964, at Abbey Road Studios, London.

Paul McCartney has said:

I think a lot of these [Lennon's] songs like "Tell Me Why" may have been based in real experiences or affairs John was having, or arguments with Cynthia [Lennon’s wife] or whatever, but it never occurred to us until later to put that slant on it all.[2]
Lennon described the song as resembling "a black New York girl-group song".

That's not the correct song. I checked.

No, that's not it. I tried to find tabs for his version but could only find lyrics. If he want's I could give it a listen and give him the chords at least.

There is a forum on their website: http://www.thesouthtown.com/

Have you tried asking there?

Guys:

In fairness, Bowl's response struck me as pretty darned ... condescending. That said, I've edited the obscenity in mr_dreadlocks' reply as that's definitely outside our forum policies. And I'm locking this thread 'cause, frankly, it 'tain't worth gettin' folks' feathers ruffled.
