Hey Jude - The Beatles



"And any time you feel the pain,
Hey Jude, refrain,
Don't carry the world upon your shoulder.
For well you know that it's a fool,
Who plays it cool,
By making his world a little colder"


I was reminded of this a couple of days ago by a friend of mine. It's a beautiful and energizing Beatles song that seems to rise in spirit as it progresses.

It sums up everything great about The Beatles: the energy, the charisma, the vision of making rock music and the astounding beauty and mainstream-ness of the music produced. This is purely McCartney so far as I understand and it's something I've always enjoyed listening to when I was down. Not down now but I still love listening to it! Enjoy!
