Could be, it was singing, sounded something like:

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Yes I'm sure that's the one. The description even says "the adult beetle is a night-flier and often comes crashing into lighted windows on warm evenings in early summer".

Thanks Beetle.

Beetle correctly identified by Beetle. :)

Is his name John, Paul, George, or Ringo?

Yes, I thought it was rather fitting - and you're welcome :-)

Okay, so you identified it, but weren't willing to put its name in the post...

That looks like what we call "June Bugs" which come out this time of year at night. Ugly things, and they are pretty tough.
