Is the name "paco" in a beatles song?

Asked by goldilocks (273points) March 31st, 2008 from iPhone

in the movie “across the universe” all of the characters have names from beatles songs ( ie: sadie from sexy sadie and max from maxwells silver hammer) but there is a man named paco that I cannot find the song for. Does anyone know the song?

I never could find the relevance of “Paco.” Good luck!

Across the Universe is not all Beatles songs, they do have the most material in the movie, but there are other references in it. Great movie by the way (o:

I believe it’s in one of their Anthologies which includes songs that were not released, bloopers etc. I am an avid Anthology listener so I will keep my… ears peeled.

@amanda:yes all the songs are written by Paul or John except two are written by George.

Paco is short for Francisco so maybe a reference to San Francisco the last large concert The Beatles performed.
