"I'm in Love" is a song written by John Lennon and credited to both John Lennon and Paul McCartney. This song was never recorded by The Beatles.However, a home recording of Lennon performing the song does exist. In 1963 the English Merseybeat band The Fourmost made a recording of the song in the Abbey Road Studios, produced by George Martin.

Billy J. Kramer also recorded a version of the song, but the version by The Fourmost was selected for the issue and reached number 17 in the United Kingdom.

Billy J Kramer: "I'm In Love" was a song that John and Paul brought down to a session at Abbey Road. The band and I had been recording and were about to finish for the day when they played this song for me. We quickly learned the song and did record it, but didn't have the time to finish it.

Honestly, I had forgotten about it until a few years ago when EMI America released it as part of The Best Of Billy J. Kramer. A fellow named Ron Furmanek, who is a pop music historian, found the recording in the vaults of EMI and edited two of the takes that we had done into one. It was strange to hear it after all these years, especially hearing John shouting directions to me in the studio. I once again realized what a fabulous song it was and I started performing it on my shows a few years ago and everyone seem to love it.
