1. "Hey Jude" 1968

This song with super simple lyrics and melody was actually not written by John Lennon, but James Paul McCartney. McCartney is very talented in arranging music, and the moral of this song is also very simple. McCartney wrote it to Lennon's youngest son, Julian, when Lennon divorced his ex-wife Cynthia.

You can freely understand the pattern of this song. When the London Olympic Games opened, this song was also sung. This song for children implied hope and care. In that depressed era, this song warmed many people's hearts, and this is how the great single was born.

2. Yesterday 1965

This song is also from McCartney, inspired by a dream of McCartney, but the lyrics were written by Lennon and Paul. The interesting thing about this song lies in its retro music structure, adopting AABA's musical form, blending big and small tones, and the whole song sounds sad and restrained, which shows the deep memory of the departed lover incisively and vividly.

This song has been covered by many famous singers for countless times. Anyone who is familiar with the Beatles knows that the Beatles' lyrics are simple and the melody is concise, which truly appreciates elegance and vulgarity. Musically, the Beatles tried the chord progression mode in this song. The lyrics describe a love that disappears silently.

3. "I want to hold your hand" 1963

This song was recorded by the Beatles for the first time with four-track recording equipment, and it was also the Beatles' first American champion single. In fact, this song is quite interesting. Epstein, the Beatles' agent at that time, wanted Beatles to open up the American market, but the music aesthetics in Britain and the United States were different.

It happened that Paul and Jane Asher fell in love, and Paul and Lennon wrote this song inspired by it. It sounds lively and simple, which makes people feel happy.

4. Love Me Do 1963

The lyrics of this song are really simple. The word with the highest frequency in the whole article is "love", and the whole song is talking about "love me do". This song has a brisk rhythm, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. However, the list performance of this song is very erratic, falling out of the top 3 for a while and rushing to the top 12 for a while. Lyrics describe a teenager who is eager for love, full of warmth and hope.

5. Let It Be 197

is another Paul song, which is also the main song of this album. Paul's piano and george harrison's guitar Solo complement each other, and the whole song has a very large range. When writing this song, the Beatles had given up live performance for more than two years, but McCartney, who loved the stage, was very unwilling. There were arguments and divisions within the band, and Paul was very sad that the band lost its cohesion.

Paul's mother, Mary, once said to McCartney, "Let everything be as it is", so the lyrics like "Mother Mary comes to me" came into being. You can see that Paul doesn't want the band to split up. In fact, I think this is very similar to McCartney's character. He always has a positive attitude towards things, which is why he will have many great musical achievements after leaving the band.
