My First time hearing The Beatles | let it be | Reaction

I love when even young people get why the Beatles were the greats.

[@stacypollock6429]

Greatest... of all time. A hundred generations from now... the Beatles will still be gaining new fans.

I'm the same there is still hope that the younger generation will carry the banner that quality music lives on marvelous.

[@ArtorGrael]

Esp when they are beautiful, soulful girls.

[@ManubibiWalsh]

and why wouldn't they? People are the same across generations. If people loved the Beatles in the 60s, they're gonna love them now as well. Nobody gets surprised when kids enjoy Mozart's music, so why is kids enjoying The Beatles a surprise? I fell in love with them when I was in my teens, a decade ago, and I don't think my love for them is any different from the love someone who was there in the 60s felt. We are all people. Fundamentally, we are all the same. The calendar is made up anyway, generational differences are also made up, and in the big scheme of things the 60s really weren't that long ago and the world didn't fundamentally change *that* much.

The Beatles greatest Band in the history of Music....Paul McCartney wrote this song. It was inspired by his mother, Mary, who died when he was 14. Many people thought "Mother Mary" was a biblical reference when they heard it. According to McCartney, this is a very positive song, owing to its inspiration. One night when he was paranoid and anxious, he had a dream where he saw his mother, who had been dead for ten years or so - she came to him in his time of trouble, speaking words of wisdom that brought him much peace when he needed it. It was this sweet dream that got him to begin writing the song.

[@SarahDengler]

So touching!

[@neilpepper3575]

He dreamt about his mother and she said "don't worry, Just let it be".. and mother Mary..is his mother

[@binxbolling]

His original story was that roadie Mal Evans was in his dream. I think he changed his story to fit the lyrics.

[@sahpdude]

Either way this song is a gift from Heaven, cause the Bible says Mother Mary will be glorified throughout all of time and this song to me surely does just that. Another good song that I enjoy is Sweet Mary by Weezer too! But that is 90-2000s rock (different time period) but worth checking them out.. much much different vibe than Beatles but these two songs share similarity in this Heavenly comfort and soothing, that can only be from Virgin Mary and Heaven itself if you were to ask me and I suppose many others.

[@AlejandroLuisi]

🍏🖒

[@charlesdavis1080]

I hate to admit it, but I didn't realize Mother Mary was a reference to his own mother until 4 years ago, when my younger sister was losing her fight against cancer. Started crying immediately. The next year our mother joined her in the undiscovered country. Next week will be 3 years since she left us, and today is the first time listening to this song since then. Tears are in my eyes again. I can never listen to this song in the same way again, but that is a good thing. Thank you, Sir Paul.

[@terilabrecque1575]

I’m a 68 year old musician, recording artist, who saw the Beatles in person when I was only 9 years old. My childhood was filled with Beatles music and Beatlemania. My heart melts when I watch young people discovering the Beatles for the first time! ❤ It’s just so beautiful! I hope you get a chance to hear Nowhere Man, Yesterday, I’ll Be Back, and so many more. The Rubber Soul and Help albums are unforgettable classics! 🙏🏻🌷

[@Lethgar_Smith]

Im 60. I remember seeing them on TV when Ed Sullivan introduced them for the now infamous Shae Stadium performance. I was very young but I distinctly remember having to sit through some warm-up act that bored us all as we ate dinner around the table with the TV on in the living room. Then the Beatles came on and I remember not being able to make out the music because of the screaming. I remember my older brother pointing out the flash bulbs going off in the stands. You could see police walking along the chain-link fence. My mom asked, "Why are they all so crazy?" and my brother says, "Because they were the first guys to have long hair" That made sense to me because I recalled my father and my brother often arguing over the length of my brother's hair. We only watched for maybe two songs because I remember my dad, who was still sitting at the table and likely having a cigarette and a beer said, "All right, that's enough of that noise. Turn it off and get ready for bed" Sorry, I had a big memory jog there, just now.

A totally timeless classic. It’s always moved people, and it simply always will.

[@THINJIMI]

I nearly cried when I first heard it on the radio when I was 12 years old. I started praying that my dad would not turn it off before it was over as it was the first time I’ve ever heard it. And, he did not.

[@juliandrake3159]

This may be the greatest song ever written. I love this song. Always such strong emotion in this song.

[@tutupachamama]

This is number one, I agree.

[@IwasInThe60s]

I envy the young people of today. Imagine hearing the greatest band ever for the first time. I often wish I could induce amnesia and experience them for a first time once more. But the 1,005th+ listen to each song still works for me too!😆

[@movid]

Not me.. Everytime I hear them and pick up some titles still after 50 years ago, it's as fresh as yesterday ❤ Actually it feels better all the time, the road is still bright 🌄

[@smiglywilno]

I can't imagine growing up without the Beatles music being a part of my life. I just wish today's youth would have the opportunity to have all those FM stations we had, where the DJ's had the freedom to play what they wanted, sometimes playing entire sides of an LP.... WHICH, by the way, is the way MOST of us discovered the music; buy it for one song or two, and find 6-7 more that SHOULD have been just as popular.

[@chuckyanus3563]

A different time. Wish young people today could have had those times as well. It’s not just the music; it’s also the experiences that went with those times. Wouldn’t trade them.

I'm 70 and still Enjoying The Beatles. Not only that my children grew up hearing these songs and remembering them. Now I have a bunch of grandchildren who sing along in the car. The 6 year old Ruby had a Beatles project in school recently here in North Wales and it was an unexpected event... no warning. The teacher was amazed by her knowledge. Her two favourite songs she told the teacher were Birthday and Blackbird... two very different songs.

Once, quite by accident, I went to the cinema to watch the movie "A Hard Day's Night" and when I first heard the song "If I fell" there, I fell in love with the Beatles for life. It's been almost 60 years since then and I keep coming back to their beautiful songs. From LP Let It Be I also love "The Long And Winding Road"

Sarah- One of the greatest songs ever from the greatest band of all time. This is Paul McCartney singing lead for Let It Be and just for clarity when he says Mother Mary comes to him. He is referring to his own mother bc her name was Mary. She Passed away when he was just a teenager. That was the big thing he and John had in common. They both lost there moms when they were just teens.

[@tommathews3964]

These guys not only changed music, they changed the world! I know it doesn't fit reactor's needs, but The Beatles really needs to be a chronological journey. If you were to hear "I Am The Walrus" or "Lucy in The Sky With Diamonds" without knowing/hearing the progression it just wouldn't make nearly as much sense. Not to say it won't be enjoyable, but if you follow the path it makes perfect sense! It's hard to believe the same guys did "She Loves You" and "Helter Skelter" without some sense of how they got from one place to the other. Thankfully they left us a lot of material in their very short time as The Beatles.

[@viclimited9081]

.........and yet the Beatles were influenced by performers who were doing this 10 years before them....no Elvis....no Beatles....sorry.

[@tommathews3964]

@@viclimited9081 No Jimmy Rogers, BB King, Fats Domino, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, probably no Elvis either. Absolutely, The Beatles were influenced by many of the same artists and they readily espoused their love of that music! I really don't agree with saying that those artists were "doing this" before The Beatles. They were strong influences, yes, but they never did anything remotely like some of the Beatles material. Can you really see Elvis or Fats Domino doing "A Day in The Life" or "I am The Walrus" or "Dear Prudence"? I can't!

[@viclimited9081]

@@tommathews3964 ......you are so brainwashed. ABBA is played and talked about today more than the Beatles. Elvis changed the world in the early 50's (no Elvis no Beatles) and Sinatra had women screaming like insane people before that. The Beatles were the first boy band - led by clever money making business models. Some bands keep playing for over 50 years because they are "good bands" and love playing - giving their fans very subjective music for a lifetime.

Sarah: "There is always light at the end of tunnel". The Beatles also sang that very sentiment in "Here Comes the Sun". And "Good Day Sunshine". And ""I'll Follow the Sun". Also their song, "We Can Work it Out". A great post-Beatles song is Paul McCartney's "Mull of Kintyre". A very uplifting tune about his Scottish home. Paul turned 82 today.
