To add to what DW was saying, Gerry Marsden used to go to the local cinema when he wasn't playing/rehearsing, but only to watch the kids' cartoons which he loved.
On one occasion, he went to sleep after the cartoons and woke up during the main film which that day was 'Carousel', just as YNWA was being sung. He was really impressed with the song and wanted to do a version by him and the Pacemakers. He struggled against the resistance to his idea but eventually he delivered, and it became a big hit. It was played, like all other top ten hits, before games at Anfield and subsequently became the club's anthem.
