"Not a Second Time" is a song by John Lennon (credited to McCartney/Lennon) performed by The Beatles on their album With the Beatles. Lennon said he was "trying to write a Smokey Robinson or something at the time."[1]

This was the song that inspired the famous musical analysis from The Times, citing the "Aeolian cadences" of Lennon's vocals as the song draws to a close, and comparing it to Mahler's "Song Of The Earth". Lennon, years later, remarked: "To this day, I have no idea what [Aeolian cadences] are. They sound like exotic birds."[2]

The song was recorded on 21 August 1963 at Abbey Road Studios.[3]
