  • "A World Without Love" is a song recorded by the English duo Peter and Gordon and released as their first single in February 1964, reaching number one in the UK Singles Chart in April. The song was written by Paul McCartney and attributed to Lennon–McCartney. The B-side was "If I Were You" written by Peter and Gordon. In June 1964, "A World Without Love" topped the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. It also reached number one on the Cash Box chart in the U.S. for one week. It was included on the duo's debut album in the UK, and in the US on an album of the same name. It is one of two songs written by Lennon–McCartney to reach number one in the US by an artist other than the Beatles. The other is "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" by Elton John. "A World Without Love" is one of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. McCartney did not think the song was good enough for The Beatles. Prior to giving the song to Peter and Gordon, he offered it to Billy J. Kramer, who rejected it. McCartney described John Lennon's reaction to the song: "The funny first line always used to please John. 'Please lock me away –' 'Yes, okay. ' End of song. " Lennon said of the song that "I think that was resurrected from the past.... I think he had that whole song before the Beatles.... That has the line 'Please lock me away' that we always used to crack up at. " This song was never released by the Beatles and the only known recording of the song by any member of the Beatles is the original demo of the song performed by McCartney which is now in the possession of Peter Asher.
  • «A World Without Love» er en britisk sang spilt inn av Peter & Gordon, accompaniment conducted by Geoff Lowe i Abbey Road Studios, 21. januar 1964 og utgitt som duoens første single 28. februar 1964. Platebetegnelsen var Columbia DB 7226. Produsent var Norman Newell. Melodi og tekst var laget av Paul McCartney, men tilskrevet Lennon/McCartney. B-siden var «If I Were You», skrevet av Peter & Gordon. «A World Without Love» var med på duoens debutalbumer i Storbritannia og i USA med samme tittel som sangen. «A World Without Love» er én av The Rock and Roll House of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. Paul McCartney syntes ikke sangen var god nok for The Beatles. Før han gav sangen til Peter and Gordon ble den tilbudt Billy J. Kramer, som avslo den. En vesentlig grunn til at nettopp Peter & Gordon fikk sangen, var at Peter var bror til skuespillerinnen Jane Asher som på den tiden var kjent som Paul McCartneys venninne. McCartney beskrev John Lennons reaksjon på sangen: «Den morsomme første linjen pleide alltid å behage John. Please lock me away - Ja, okey. Slutt på sangen». Den finnes ikke på noen utgivelser med The Beatles.
  • A World Without Love är en låt komponerad av Paul McCartney (men som brukligt krediterad Lennon–McCartney) och lanserad av popduon Peter and Gordon som deras debutsingel 1964. McCartney tyckte inte låten var något för The Beatles att spela in och erbjöd den först till Billy J Kramer som tackade nej. Han gav den då till Peter and Gordon, då Peters syster Jane Asher sällskapde med McCartney vid tidpunkten. Låten blev en stor framgång och låg singeletta både i USA och Storbritannien. The Beatles spelade aldrig in någon egen version av låten, men en demo med McCartney existerar. Låten finns med på Rock and Roll Hall of Fames lista "500 låtar som skapade rock'n'roll".
  • «A World Without Love» (Мир без любви) — песня Джона Леннона и Пола Маккартни. В 1964 году в исполнении дуэта «Питер и Гордон» возглавила хит-парады по обе стороны Атлантики.

Состоит из двух частей. Содержит инструментальный проигрыш в середине на гармонию первой части. В аккомпанементе задействованы гитары (ритм, соло и бас), электроорган и ударная установка.
