To celebrate the occasion, fans gathered in Liverpool's docks Friday afternoon to set a new world record for the most Beatles fans singing "Love Me Do" in a round.

Organized by the city's Beatles Story tourist attraction, the record setting sing-a-long drew in more than 1,500 participants from around the U.K. to crush the previous record of 897 people singing the song, according to The Telegraph. more on this story
