    Paul McCartney's mother (who died in 1956 of breast cancer) came to him in a dream one night when he was feeling a little stressed, depressed, harried. His mother told him "Let it be" "put away all those fears and doubts, and drugs, and booze, and just let it be, it will all work out".

    I was 13 when I listened to the Beatles on the radio in 1963. I instantly fell in love with them. "I want to hold your hand" and "She loves you" were my first single. Now I am 73 and I play "Let it be" and "Hey Jude" and "Imagine" on the piano in a retirement home and people still love it. This music is timeless and I am so happy to have experienced it in my youth..... greetings from Germany, Monika.

    Mary was Paul McCartney's mother. She died when Paul was young. The song describes his thoughts about his "mum" when he would be worried or concerned about things, and she would come to his mind and tell him don't worry about it, let it be, or just let it go.

    I grew up with the Beatles music & had most of their records. They were part of the British Invasion. You can't go wrong with any of their music. They had so many great songs in the 60's. This song is the title track from the final studio album "Let It Be" that was released on May 1970, almost a month after the group's break-up. It had a lot of good songs on it. "The Long & Winding Road", "Get Back", "Across The Universe" etc.

      @patticrichton1135 Рік тому

      Paul never deliberately made it ambiguous when he wrote it, it was simply about him dreaming of his mother Mary saying "Let it Be' It wasn't until he saw that some people were taking it as referring to the VIRGIN MARY and feeling it was a religious song, that he stated in interviews that it wasn't his intention, that he was referring to his mom, but he said it was OK with him, if some people think of it in the religious vein and that it is the Virgin Mother.

    Paul McCartney of the Beatles wrote this song. He said his mother, who died when he was 14, came to him one night in his sleep, when he was worrying about something, and just said 'Let it be'. And Paul Mccartney, who has written more hit songs than anyone, alive or dead, turned those 7 letters, just 3 simple words, into one of the the greatest songs ever written.
    That is musical genius.

      Some of them NEED to see the Beatles in performance, especially if they have never seen them at all.

    When humankind is exploring other orbs in our solar system for future habitation, The Beatles' music will be played on the shuttles.

    Paul (vocalist on this song) wrote this song about his mother coming to him in a dream during an especially stressful part of his life. His mothers name was Mary and she had died when he was 14 years old. Obviously a very personal and very spiritual piece.

      @@mrfester42 I was just going to tell them that. Yes it's a Paul McCartney song that he did with Stevie Wonder, great video to it as well, (Oh and in case THEY read this and they don't know, Paul McCartney was one of the Beatles and did "Ebony and Ivory" years after the Beatles broke up.)
