I am convinced that in 500 or 1000 years people will still look at the Beatles and their music as being timeless classics.
you are delusional
If not, then somewhere along the line we will have screwed things up irreparably. I do hope you are right.
Nah mate, guitars groups are on the way out!
@@B.R.0101 😂
Sadly, they won't be in earth and 500 or 1000 years. The human race is just gonna destroy everything. Including the Beatles. Sad sad sad.
Another masterpiece from Paul McCartney. Written about his deceased mother after he dreamed of her reassuring him during a difficult time. It can be interpreted and applied many ways. Bottom line is that it’s a beautiful song. Beatles music will almost always lift you up. Great reaction. 🌺✌️
Not really. He had a dream in which their assistant Mal said let it be. He obviously changed this to Mother Mary in the song, which also refers to the mother of Jesus. Paul sometimes changes stories over time, and now he says his mother was the one in the dream.
Not really it was john Lennon who said let it be he woke up from his number 9 dream. Lol
@@williamjordan5554 no evidence of that I’m sticking with McCartney story it makes more logical sense
@@kevenrowe2958 Trust me. I've been reading about them since 1971.
@@williamjordan5554 nope I won’t cause their ain’t much really evidence . I think will take McCartney word over that other guy you claim
One of the greatest songs of any genre or any era, period.
Facts
George Harrison's guitar solo is icing on the cake!! And again at the end.
Absolute fire!
I think it's his best work. Even more then While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
Like John Lennon said: "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans".
Thanks, guys! ❤
He didn't originate that quote. He borrowed it.
A similar saying “Mann Tracht, Un Gott Lacht” is an old Yiddish adage meaning, “Man Plans, and God Laughs.” Despite our most careful planning, the Road of Life is unpredictable.
The Beatles, the beginning and the end ❤️ no one can match them, or touch their brilliance. A gift from God.❤️
Them 70s ROCKED BABY ,, This was from 1970
AS a catholic this song hits me so much among the charity we do out there, we met Paul and he mention about his mom and Virgin Mary it was sweet, God bless everyone especially Mothers.
@@theodoreritola7641 1969 theodore, before Abbey Road.
The Beatles were god......
Amen!
George Harrison just steals the show with that blistering guitar solo.
No doubt, the rosewood telecaster with one of rocks most melodic and memorable leads!
The “fifth Beatle” Billy Preston on keyboards…. perfection
Paul is playing piano, Billy the organ.
Not "The" fifth Beatle, one of the 10 - 15 "Fifth Beatles"...😄
The only real fifth beatle was George Martin.
Geoff Emerick insisted "the fifth Beatle" was a presence in the room when all four were in the studio. The sum was greater than the parts.
@@nelsonacosta961 when George Martin decided to leave the beatles broke up.
BEST BAND OF ALL TIME!!
PERIOD!!!!!!!!👍🥁🎧🎹🎵🎸🎙
led zeppelin
@@eye5856 LZ may have been better musicians, but as for song writing - not even close. AND, I love LZ to so no disrespect intended. Others may say Pink Floyd, or Queen, but again, not when it comes to writing music. They were all good, but I don't think LZ or the others would even exist if not for the Beatles showing everyone else how to do it. The Beatles had absolutely no broundries when it came to music.
AGREE 100%
The Worzles.
that would be Motowns Funk Brothers but for a singing and playing they get my vote
It's impossible to overstate what a music and cultural phenomenon were The Beatles. They were of their time. We shall never see those times again.
Paul McCartney wrote this song after he had a dream about his deceased mother appearing. This was during tense times in the band, and his mother told him in the dream "it's all right, just let it be".
She died of breast cancer when he was fourteen years old and John lost his mother Julia eighteen months later to an off-duty drunk driving cop who hit her as she was crossing the road after visiting here sister (John's Aunt Mimi) who raised him.
"That became a very big bond between John and me, because he lost his mum early on, too. We both had this emotional turmoil which we had to deal with and, being teenagers, we had to deal with it very quickly. We both understood that something had happened that you couldn’t talk about - but we could laugh about it, because each of us had gone through it. It wasn’t OK for anyone else. We could both laugh at death - but only on the surface. John went through hell, but young people don’t show grief - they’d rather not. Occasionally, once or twice in later years, it would hit in. We’d be sitting around and we’d have a cry together; not often, but it was good."
Actually it was his road manager Mal Evans who appeared before him whispering "let it be, let it be" while he was meditating.
@@paulknight9998 McCartney has repeatedly said it was his mother, Mary, (Mary Patricia Mohin McCartney), who said "Let It Be", to him, in a dream. 2 vids of him stating this, currently on youtube, are titled; Paul McCartney Breaks Down His Most Iconic Songs & Paul McCartney Carpool Karaoke.
@@wnsafford1854 He changed the story over time. Trust me. I've been a fan since 1971.
@@wnsafford1854 And president Clinton repeatedly said he never had sexual relations with Miss Lewinsky. Several videos of him stating this on UA-cam. What is your point?
"I've never heard a bad song by the Beatles." Like all artists there are some that don't work quite as well as others, but those are kinda rate in their catalog. It can't be said enough that the entire catalog was written, recorded, and released over a period of 8 years. Try to imaging any modern artist create this much high quality material from, say, 2014 through today.
@Far Stox One band that for me is like that in that even when I do not love the song I can still appreciate it is Radiohead.
Revolution 9
@@lubinlfb3563 My personal fav.........................
Think about this they released 12 albums from 1963 - 1970 and they did this before any of them were 30 years old. Insane.
@Far Stox Never heard of them.
Paul McCartney was in a bad place searching for answers. He had a dream about his deceased mother, Mary. She came to him and just said "let it be". The rest is Rock history.
The “Get Back” documentary puts the recording of this album into a new perspective. It’s 9 hours in length yet goes by fast.
When you hear McCartney playing around with Let It Be while other people are talking over it...it's crazy. And, an emotional moment for me to hear those notes. This is easily one of the most iconic songs ever written and performed. Inspired by Paul's Mum, Mary.
@@JanS1: it’s almost deja vu when McCartney starts poking away at “Get Back”. They were definitely out of sync for the most part until that rooftop concert.
A must watch!!!
One of the best songs from the 70s Baby
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
That wasn't his original story. Mal Evans was the one in the dream.
That is beautiful, I always wondered about this song. You hear mother Mary you think Jesus mother and I didn’t think they were religious. Thanks for the info.
@@daisi4925 They weren't except maybe George.
@@williamjordan5554 thank yoy
Wrote the words, wrote the music, played the music and sang the words. Greatest band the world's ever seen.
God graced the universe, giving us the Beatles.
Most influential band in history. Changed history.
I love howl the Beatles put aside all personal feelings, pulled on their pro musician pants, and make 2 more LP's before the split, perhaps saving the best for last.
This song is POWERFUL.
Yes Lawd. Pure Royalty! 👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Let It Be, recorded in January 31st & April 30th, 1969 in Abbey Road and ended in January 4th, 1970 on Apple Studios. Great video guys, keep it up! Please react Magical Mystery Tour (1967) also by The Beatles!
I love this song. I had never heard it before, but in 2017, I spent some time in the psych ward of the hospital (nervous breakdown--everybody kept dying on me), and I can absolutely say, you will find some of the most creative people in the psych ward. My first roommate in there was a truly gorgeous young bipolar woman who was an amazing cello player. Anyway, another guy played guitar, and one night, he played this and a bunch of the patients started singing the song, and it was just so beautiful. I guess we were "the brokenhearted people." Honestly, it really was a special moment.
My favorite Beatles song. Always gets me in the eyes. "And when the night is cloudy, there is still a light that shines on me.........". Who doesn't know that feeling? Good post.
So beautiful!❤❤❤❤. The Beatles were on another level. A truly awesome band!!
It's astounding that there are music lovers who have not heard EVERY SINGLE BEATLES SONG already. But glad you folks are catching up! You really need to listen to their entire catalog, and then you will have enough musical knowledge and experience to judge all that came after them.
Simple brilliance. Paul's voice hits the mood perfectly. Love George's guitar.
Mary McCartney inspired this song written by Paul McCartney, her son... Paul lost his mom to cancer when he was a teenager. 'Let it be' was something she would always tell him when he went thru tough times...
(The late) John Lennon also wrote a song 'Julia' about his late mom, who passed away when he was a teen, after being hit by a drunk driver (who turned out to be an off-duty police officer).
Ever since I was a child in the 60's, I have loved The Beatles music. Great music and I mean all of it. And "Let It Be" is one of my favorites. Also that is Billy Preston on the Organ.
I went past Pauls boyhood home last month, just a nice little house in a nice little street in a suburb of Liverpool, utterly unpretentious. To me it shows that no matter the material life you might have had or have, nothing beats having a strong family around you to bring out the best in a person.
BJ, you are so right on when you say you've never heard a bad Beatles song. There truly is no such thing. There never was, nor never will be, such artistry. I'm happy to have seen them.
Lovely Rita Meter Maid...shocking
'Revolution #9' is pretty unpleasant.
@@Fuliginosusbut unique and artistic nonetheless
My favorite George Harrison solo. He recorded this solo in Jan 1970 while putting together his song, 'I Me Mine', with Paul and Ringo. It would be the last time they were ever together as Beatles in the studio. Billy Preston guests on organ for the church feel. He was a great addition to their group when they tried to record a Get Back album and movie. Billy Preston plays the Fender Rhodes keyboard with them on their famous Rooftop performance.
Thanks for playing the version with the heavy solo and outro. This is the best one.
One of my earliest memories.. It's the late 70's, I'm walking up a set of stairs. A little crappy 70's tv, sitting on a dresser, is on. Paul is on it singing this song. Thats it, thats the whole memory.
A song about his mother, but with spiritual overtones. That's why he says "Mother Mary", instead of the normal way of referencing one's mother (i.e. "my mother, Mary", or "Mary, my mother"). Great song choice!
I was born 1962..that year The Beatles coming to my brain...and never go out
I love all their songs.
One of their most beautiful songs. To this day it brings a tear to my eye and I know every word still.
The Beatles ALWAYS took us to church!
Definitely one of my top 10 songs of all times for me just a masterpiece plane and simple 🥰👌👌
At the time, 'Let it Be' had the highest debut on the Billboard Hot 100, beginning its chart run at number 6 and eventually reaching the top. It was the Beatles' final single before McCartney announced his departure from the band.
The great Beatles and their amazing songwriting.
The Beatles getting spiritual. “Let it Be” a simple yet powerful message. The song can bring tears to my eyes.
I've heard it an untold number of times and yet here I sit, at 55, with eyes brimming.
LET IT BE Came out in May of 1970
@@theodoreritola7641was written and recorded BEFORE Abbey Road.
No one has sold more albums to this day.Literally hundreds of self written songs.Their songwriting progression from 63-70 is impressive..Thank you so much for jamming these old classics with me you guys !!
it’s a lot of serendipity imo. His mother was named Mary but it makes it seem more spiritual. Billy Preston was there to add warmth on keys and he turned in almost a pump organ type performance. When he does that descending sequence it’s definitely going to church. And that guitar, shoo! Free and easy, not trying to play every possible note.
If this was the only song Paul McCartney had ever written and recorded he'd still deserve to be in the pantheon of rock.
They set the standard for all other pop rock artists to try and follow or expand upon if they had the talent and desire to do so!👍🏻❤️✌🏻
amazing that their are people in the world who have never heard this. oh to these this for the first time!! paul is the greatest musical genius without a doubt.
My grandson taught himself to play the piano by playing Let It Be. He's a music major and teaches music to kids
IMO one of the best songs ever written. John Lennon’s Imagine also comes to mind.
Anytime I’m feeling anything but happy this song always gets me right again. I don’t know why, it’s just something about his voice and the song in general ❤️
"My heart is Full" - ahh, beautiful my dear! ..Let it Be is the first ever power ballad.
A Gospel and Blues and Pop inspired Beatles song, and a beautiful one like they always. Just one of 200 or so great Beatles songs inspired by all kinds of genres that also influenced those genres going forward. These guys were THE great synthesizers of music.
My favorite McCartney/ Beatles song. Paul said his Mom used to say this to him and the song came to him in a dream
This was my grandmother's favorite song. She bought me my first two Beatles albums for my 13th birthday in 1979, Let It Be and Revolver.
You can never go wrong with a Beatles song (even individually}.
The piano brings the hymnal feel to this song but the killer for me is the guitar - pain, sorrow and anguish in those notes. A brilliant song!
Beatles stay forever for shure , legends never Die . Imagines what ....
Paul wrote this, but John also has a lyric from a song of his that is in the same vein.
“Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”
Except John did not originate the quote. He borrowed it. The first known appearance was in an issue of Reader’s Digest magazine dated January 1957. The statement was printed together with nine other unrelated sayings in a section called “Quotable Quotes”:[2]
Allen Saunders: Life is what happens to us while we are making other plans.

The Beatles transcended rock & roll and pop music to become something unique. Their music will live for centuries, like classical music. I got to see Paul McCartney in concert in 2011, and I remember thinking that it was like seeing and hearing Mozart live playing his own music.
I lost my own mother "Mary" last year, this beautiful song gives me great comfort
Music is universal, and not one way only.
WOW such a beautiful song, Touches your soul ,thanks, you guys are wonderful, stay safe and enjoy your day while I enjoy your channel, Peace and love.
Paul wrote this for his mother memories
The Beatles are unique in many ways, but one other thing that set them apart is that about 95% of their songs have a positive message, or positive lyrics.
Glad you guys got to enjoy this uplifting song. This and 'Long and Winding Road' seem to be a peak for the Beatles, as Paul dipped into spiritual wisdom. A blessing.
I was five years old when the Beatles first went worldwide. I'm glad to see you guys react to them and love them also. I hope you do more by them soon. Thanks for a great reaction. Peace
The greatest band hitting on all cylinders.
There is very good reason why the Beatles are known to be the greatest band in recorded history. They had their first UK hit in 1962 and from there every single they released in the UK up until 1967. They were the first group to have the top five singles in the charts at the same time. They were the first band to have a double fold album cover with Sgt. Pepper. The first to do a lot of things that until they did it had never been heard before in music. Do yourselves a favour and dive into the Beatles rabbit hole, you won't regret it.
Even though I am first listening this reaction in September, I love to go back and hear some of your reactions from months ago I may have missed. This is a great one!
20th Century Classic! "Let it Be" was all over the radio when I was a really little kid, so listening to it always reminds me of my late mother. Also, check out the gospel choir version of the song from the motion picture "Across the Universe" when you can.
That lead guitar from George Harrison up is mind blowingly good.
One of my favorite Beatles tunes! So simple and yet so powerful. Hey Jude and Obla-di Obla-da are other great ones to check out
"Life is what happens while you're busy making other plans." - John Lennon (Beautiful Boy)
The Beatles actually accomplished over 200 hits and disbanding all before any of them turned 30. So young ,.,, so brilliant. BTW...Billy Preston was on organ
I've always felt like this song was the perfect musical expression of exiting the stage with a graceful, classy finality.
Great job! The Beatles songs, like this one of course, have been in my head for over 50 years and I can't just listen to them and enjoy them. I can only enjoy the songs through people like you. I love watching you hear the song and find pleasure in doing so.
Really enjoyed your reaction to another Beetles classic. As well as your comments. Ya'll are a beautiful couple. And Asia, your smile and laughter are infectious😊
Or even the Beatles
The great Billy Preston played Hammond organ on this recording
Beatles songs sound like they may have been written yesterday! No equals. Rock on.
Paul's mother (Mary) used to say that to him when he was troubled , as a youngster. This song pays homage to Mother Mary.
And it's so true : Dont let it get to you, let it be, it'll resolve, eventually and like all things, it'll pass. Just chill, dont sweat it.
John Lennon's "imagine" and "Give Peace A Chance"
George Harrison's, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "My Sweet Lord"
Billy Preston's, "That's The Way God Planned It" from George's fundraising Concert for Bangladesh - all timeless messages that are completely relevant today. 🌈🙏 Love you two 💞
Behind every Beatles song was their producer, George Martin. His role in the success of this incredible band should not be understated. Whenever you here complex musical instrumentation on a Beatles tune you should raise a glass to George Martin, one of, if not the, greatest producer in music history, and one of the best argued cases for being the fifth Beatle along with Stuart Sutcliffe, Brian Epstein and Billy Preston.
True. I call George Martin "The Wizard". He was SOOOO good! He mixed "Love" for the Cirque de Soleil , and it was his last work. His last HAD to be with the Beatles!
- if you haven’t listened to it yet, please do so.
Don't forget Pete Best, and Billy Shepherd who replaced Paul McCartney after he died.
... except for the small detail that George Martin didn't produce this song. It was produced by convicted murderer Phil Spector.
@@alexandergibbs6950 Didn't know that. Thanks for the information.
This song will continue to be a masterpiece for many generations
A beautiful gospel tune! Paul’s mother, Mary, died when he was 14. She came to him in a dream with this message. 🌹
The Greatest band of all time. No words!!
One of the all time greats. In 1999, Rolling Stone magazine published it's Top 100, presumably because of the millennium of those 100 songs, TEN were by The Beatles, with this song at #20. The list was revised in 2021 to include more contempory bands but The Beatles were still there with their solid 10. They'd moved up and down a bit but that shows just how big and influential they were.
In the same album lisen ''The long and winding road '' another master piece from Paul.. Amazing !!
You two are extremely likable. Good job.. enjoy the watch.
You literally could do almost any Beatles song from any of their albums and it would just be magnificent. They really didn’t do anything that wasn’t superb. Best band that ever existed.
It's fun to hear you guys react to this music. This is later Beatles music. I was about 3 years old when The Beatles first hit the US on the radio and the Ed Sullivan Show. I was too young to know them as the lads from Liverpool although I do remember hearing 'A Hard Days Night' playing from a radio when I was 4 years old. I found out many years later my mother was a huge fan of The Beatles. :) Their musical style had shifted by the time they did this song and continued to shift. I grew up with it. :)
Love this song! When I was a teenager and I was feeling really down I used to listen to this song. Cried a little bit and start again. It really gave me hope and courage. Greetings from Lima, Perú.
George Harrison's guitar solo is...... So sweet!
"Let it be" is the literal interpretation for "Amen."
Great iconic song by the most iconic band in history. When The Beatles were about to record their album "Let It Be" in January, 1969 Paul was very stressed about the cracks that were forming in the band. He was beginning too see the end and was very concerned about it all. One night in his dreams his beloved mother, Mary came to him in a dream and told him to just let it be, you can't control everything, what will be, will be. I think this experience gave him some comfort. George Harrison kills the guitar solo on this one, his guitar is almost speaking. I hope you two continue your Beatles journey as you two have no clue about the catalog of music these guys released between 1963 to 69.They covered just about every genre of popular and rewrote or should I say wrote the book on how to make studio recordings starting in late 1966 or even mid 66 with Lennon's "Tomorrow Never Knows" from their "Revolver" Lp. These four guys along with Bob Dylan were and still are one offs. I feel very safe in saying that you will never see the likes of these people in your lifetime and beyond your lives. You know I'm gonna bring up George's "Here Comes The Sun" from their "Abbey Road" 2019 50th anniversary remix with video, sounds incredible ! Also Their 1968 video of Lennon's "Revolution" great color and sound. In this one you'll see how The Beatles could rock out with the best of them. Never try to put them in a box and say they were this or that. They truly did it all. Rocker's, pop, greatest ballad writers ever, greatest LSD music ever, Listen to their "Rubber Soul" Lp, the greatest pot record ever and that was back in 65, Rockabilly, orchestra music. Like I said, they did it all. The proper way to listen to them is chronologically from 63 to 69. Some will say 70 when the "Let It Be" Lp was released but that was recorded in January, 1969 and sat on a shelf for a year. "Abbey Road" recorded in the summer of of 69 and released in September of 69.This was actually their last album. Listen chronologically and hear the growth of this band in 7 short years. Like I said, you will never see another Beatles. Lennon/McCartney will never happen for many many years into the future. These two were songwriting geniuses. Lennon's brain and his view of the world around him was very unique. One of a kinder with this guy. Hey Asia, more George Carlin in the future please. This guy was The Beatles and Dylan of comedy ! 👌👌👌☮️✌️💕🙂
Great song, wonderful reaction.This will never get old.Thank you both
You got it Asia! I’m so impressed when I see your generation dig our generations music. I was literally a flower child of the sixties and teen of the 1970s, lol!
I’m inspired!
One of Beatle Paul's very finest moments (with major boosts from George Harrison on lead guitar and Billy Preston at the keys) ---"Eleanor Rigby" and "Got to Get You into My Life" are other absolute must-hears from his Fabster days...
14 year old me, had this album. Love every song on the album. Love the not as well know, Dig a Pony also. So blessed to have lived the Beatles era. Mother Mary was actually Paul's mum he is referring to, she passed when Paul 14 also. All of the Beatles I feel are and were spiritual men. On the instrumentation, I think Ringo deserves all of his accolades, the way he drove that band, cannot be understated
Such chills thinking about what it was like to hear something like this play on the radio for the first time. What were they doing, and what were they thinking about? So many KIDS hearing it are now very old or not with us anymore. Nostalgia is a very powerful tool.
The Beatles were always good. There music lot of the time had a great message.
