How long have you had it? I went to the web site and it doesn't have a list of stations playing it yet.

I've had the song for a few years now. It's on a bootleg CD that's got a bunch of unreleased Lennon demos. It's just him at the piano or with a guitar. It's one of the best bootlegs around. I'm pretty sure it's also got the original recordings of "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love" that the other 3 Beatles used to make the "new" songs for the Anthology.
Anyway, "Help Me To Help Myself" is a pretty good song. The demo on there is only about 2 minutes long. It's John at the piano, and the song is really unfinished. It's also strangely religious at times. But all in all, it's an unreleased Lennon song - which in my book is good no matter what.

Help Me To Help Myself is a good song.The line "Well, I tried so hard to stay alive" must have seemed so unimportant when John was writing this in mid 1980! http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
