No Raspberries single charted in Britain, and after looking that up I got
curious to see if they charted in some other countries. According to my
library, they also didn't chart in Sweden, Australia, or New Zealand, but
"Don't Want To Say Goodbye" and "Go All The Way" did make the "tip" charts
in The Netherlands (which doesn't rank things numerically). Also, "Go All
The Way" hit #9 and "I Wanna Be With You" #17 on Toronto's premier radio
station, CHUM.
Yeah, I know, this info has nothing to do with the question of whether or
not the Raspberries influenced Paul McCartney, but I thought I'd throw it
out there for all the chart geeks like myself. :-)
