[@themoviedealers]

Normally I would say that for a group this popular, you would have to at least heard the song somewhere even if you didn't remember hearing it, like in a movie soundtrack or a TV commercial. However, The Beatles to this day almost never licensed any of their recordings for movies or commercials. They were that popular that they didn't need the money from licensing deals like that.

[@TheBlackQueen]

Jude is referring to Julian Lennon, John Lennon's son. John was going through a divorce and Paul wrote this song to comfort Julian through the split.

[@sonnybarry]

And Pauls Godson. It also refers to Yoko Ono. Remember to let her into your heart, then you can start to make it better. It's a lot of good advice and wisdom to a young boy in confusing times.

[@Xcris_crosX]

Typical of Beatles to have variations of lyrical meanings. Back in the day I heard it had to do with something totally different. The minute you let her under your skin (drugs) Then you begin to make it better. And anytime you feel the pain (needle). So let it out and let it in (injection)

[@maineman9447]

Hey, Jules

[@TheBlackQueen]

Xcris crosX The Drug meaning was thought up by fans but McCartney always maintained it was a song giving advice to Julien to let Yoko into his heart. "Let it out and let it in" can refer to Crying and Comfort and "Let her under your skin" could just be the metaphorical sense of letting someone into your heart. Paul was always up front about the drug references in his songs as simple allusions, but he never said that about Hey Jude. It's a song for a 5 year old. He likely wouldn't want those references in it. And no it's not like Yellow Submarine promoting smoking.

The Beatles refused to play to segregated audiences in America. Inclusive is right.

[@arautus]

Not to mention, McCartney's song 'Black Bird' was inspired by the racial tensions that exploded in the US in the spring of 1968 as a symbolic way to support the efforts of the Civil Rights Movement. McCartney underlined also that “bird” is a British slang often used for “girl”, which would make “blackbird” become “black girl”.

True, their performance contracts stated that they would not play in segregated venues. They made sure they had it in writing.

you123ST The Beatles were influenced from so many different sources. Chuck Berry was a huge influence, however, Paul’s dad was a musician that played in jazz and dance bands when he was younger, so that was also an influence. Also, Liverpool was a major port and the members of the Beatles said they got records brought from the US by sailors, so they had access to music not heard on the radio or sold in stores in England. County music was a huge influence on their sound, especially evident in their early rockabilly sound on some songs. Paul, George and John were fans of Carl Perkins. In my opinion, the wide variety of influences directly impacted how incredible their work was. You could hear Helter Skelter and Julia on the same album. That is contrast.

Jayvee, you mention the diverse audience that is there singing along with The Beatles? Well dig this about the greatest band in music history: "The Beatles showed their support for the US civil rights movement by refusing to play in front of segregated audiences, a contract shows. The document, which is to be auctioned next week, relates a 1965 concert at the Cow Palace in California. Signed by manager Brian Epstein, it specifies that The Beatles "not be required to perform in front of a segregated audience". The Beatles had previously taken a public stand on civil rights in 1964, when they refused to perform at a segregated concert at the Gator Bowl in Jacksonville, Florida. City officials relented, allowing the stadium to be integrated, and the band took to the stage. "We never play to segregated audiences and we aren't going to start now," said John Lennon. "I'd sooner lose our appearance money." The struggle for racial equality in America later inspired Paul McCartney to write Blackbird.

[@ldchappell1]

The Beatles were together as a band for 12 years. Their recording careers lasted 9 years (1961-1970) but they were together as a group, John, Paul and George since 1958. Ringo joined in 1962. "My Bonnie", The Beatles' first commercially-released record, featured English singer Tony Sheridan on lead vocals and was recorded in Hamburg in 1961.

[@jnixa1010]

ldchappell1 I said recording. And I don’t count the Pete Best years when discussing their history, as they weren’t truly the “ Beatles “ until Ringo joined. They didn’t have official recordings that ended up on a record with Ringo until 62’

[@ldchappell1]

@@jnixa1010 They were "The Beatles" beginning in 1960. Give me a break. Of course I admire Ringo's work in the Beatles, but his inclusion in the band was not that significant to their creative output. Out of 213 songs recorded, he only composed or sang lead on 11 tracks. When John was asked in 1966 "Do you consider Ringo Starr to be the best pop drummer in the world." John responded "He's not even the best drummer in The Beatles."

[@jnixa1010]

ldchappell1 they’ve also said they never would have been as good without Ringo. John was joking, and btw, you didn’t put the full quote in there. I mean, John also said everything the Beatles did sucked, too, you believe that also? Yoko and heroin had him saying a lot of shit he didn’t truly believe. Beatles didn’t record in ‘60, btw. My initial statement was recording... they started recording albums in studio with George Martin in 62’. I’m right, you’re wrong

Fantastic harmonies. Who doesn’t love the Beatles! Their music is so diverse.

[@TheZasu123]

"Paul McCartney made sure that Jimi Hendrix was not excluded in a rock festival by stating that they would not attend the festival if Jimi was not there" this was because in one of the festivals where both Jimi and The Beatles were meant to perform the festival management threatened to drop Jimi because of his skin color, The Beatles weren't only great musicians but also great people and great friends!

Start at the beginning, say maybe the hamburg tapes (or Cavern) and work your way up through the changes to Abbey Road.

[@nickmitsialis]

I've always found 'Hey Jude' was the most heartfelt of the Beatles songs that I've heard--except maybe for Let it be.

[@skwervin1]

I saw Paul live at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with his band before Linda died... I sang along with everyone else and I don't think my ass hit the seat once he started playing - up singing... dancing... such talent... The emotion from the crowd was infectious. These four men were more than giants... they changed the world and took us along for the ride.

[@heorgegarrison5554]

First time I heard hey jude, I was speechless, my mouth was wide open, and thats when I knew what the greatest song was

"Hey Jude" holds the record for the longest song to hit #1 at 7mins.11 seconds.. 1968

[@laustcawz2089]

Actually, it's 3rd. The original single of Don McClean's "American Pie" (1971) had the first half of the song on side "A" & the rest on side "B", adding up to about 8 & a half minutes. "MacArthur's Park" (Richard Harris, 1968) was almost half a minute longer than "Hey, Jude". In fairness, though, The Beatles set a new precedent with "Hey, Jude" before the other two songs were released, opening the door for especially long songs.

[@QueenSnowPea]

@@laustcawz2089 what about In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. Also the song Get Ready by Rare Earth took up one whole side of the album.

[@laustcawz2089]

@@QueenSnowPea I did some further checking. Both Rare Earth's "Get Ready" single & Iron Butterfly's "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" single were severely edited compared to the album versions (both singles were around 3:00, give or take a few seconds) & neither got anywhere near #1 on the pop charts (at least in the U.S., though "Get Ready" apparently topped the R&B charts). I also discovered, to my surprise, that "MacArthur's Park" actually only made it to #2, not #1. Apparently, only "American Pie" both reached #1 &, because of how the original single was designed, was the longest #1 song ever, though I guess "Hey, Jude" is the longest for one side of a 7". Btw, the only reason I even know about that original "American Pie" single is that I actually had it growing up. Of course, if we're including all types of singles, then that has to include 12" singles (which were generally considerably longer) & then the discussion would get into other formats & so forth, until it practically becomes rather pointless, so, for this particular debate, I guess "Hey, Jude" & "American Pie" can split the difference.

[@elstonngunn4193]

American pie is better than hey Jude tho, I luv hey Jude but ddon McLean's song is a absolute masterpiece

[@Coolrockndad]

@@laustcawz2089 Hey Jude was on one side of a single. Were as American Pie's A side was the one played and given credit for being #1 is what I read somewhere. As far as MacArthur's Park goes, It hit 2 on Billboard not #1.

My thoughts exactly.

[@Drakesclub]

I agree with what you are saying. I really do. And if the artist in question was 10CC or the Boomtown Rats, then I would not have asked the question 'How did you get to your age without hearing the Beatles'? But, after all, it is the Beatles.

@@Drakesclub i didnt start listening to the Beatles until age 12. Some ppl probably started at an earlier or older age. Like I said, people take different paths and just because theyre famous doesnt mean much unless yourr not exposed to them, especially these days when theres broad range of music to enjoy. I dont like many famous things, or dont care about many famous things, Im sure you can name something famous you dont like either. And if so, then you should be understand him.

The Beatles are my dad‘s fave band! The were a creative force, releasing more than 10 albums, which is a lot, considering that they weren’t together as a band that long. Among my favorite songs are Eleanor Rigby, Help, In My Life, and Blackbird. There is also a really sweet Beatles tribute movie, which was only released about maybe a month ago called Yesterday. Hey Jude played while the credits rolled and my dad and I stayed to the end to sing along, because who can help it when the nananas start?

You could pick one of another hundred Beatles songs and they'd all be just about as good, though admittedly this one was a monster hit in 1968. Also, you should keep in mind they weren't just any band; they may be the most musically influential band of all time.
