Nobody I Know is a song written by Paul McCartney[1] (attributed to Lennon–McCartney) which Peter and Gordon recorded in an April 1964 session at Abbey Road Studio. Peter and Gordon had had a UK and US #1 hit with the McCartney composition "A World Without Love" and McCartney wrote "Nobody I Know" with the specific intent of providing a follow-up hit for the duo. The track reached #10 UK and #12 US.[2][3]
A French rendering entitled "Partir, il nous faut" was recorded by Petula Clark and issued on a 1965 EP headed by her hit "Dans les temps".[4]
