Elvis Presley, and The Supremes. Each group of artist, had it’s own background that fully lead up to the development of the successful group. The Beatles started out as a high school vocal group known as The Quarrymen that was formed by John Lennon, the leader of the Beatles. Each member of the Beatles soon joined the group and gained their reputation by performing in clubs in Liverpool, England and Hamburg, Germany. Their manager was Brian Epstein. He signed a contract with EMI…

atheists would hide it, because most people believed in God, but the Beatles did not get that memo. They could not believe how Americans were so fixated about God. In an interview with Maureen Cleave, she asked John a much unexpected question. Her question was about his thoughts on religion. John thought about the question for a few seconds, then came back and answered with “We’re more popular than Jesus now”. This remark did not get noticed much in England, but when the Beatles were about…

60 years after their start, The Beatles are nearly unanimously known as the greatest musical group in at least the past 100 years. I selected their song “In My Life” as the subject of my Man Tunes assignment. The song “In My Life” was written by Lennon and McCartney for the 1965 album Rubber Soul. The song has a runtime of 2 minutes and 26 seconds and was placed 5th on Rolling Stone Magazine’s list of the top 100 Beatles songs of all time. Although the true meaning behind the song was never…

This album was full of experimentation. Instead of the pop sound, this record had a very psychedelic feel to it. The song “In My Life” is sung about someone important in John Lennon’s life. “Of all these friends and lovers / There is no one compares with you,” is a lyric that describes Lennon’s feelings that this person is above everyone else in his life (The Beatles, “In My Life”). This is evident as well when he says…

The Beatles mostly sang about peace and love, experimenting with different concepts on the subject and various instruments. George Harrison introduced the sitar in some of their later albums. Originally, they started as a simple pop band and eventually grew and developed into a rock and roll band. Most of their fan base was composed of teenage girls, while the Rolling Stones attracted every one of every age. They would have to think of creative and clever ways to sneak lyrics about sex and drugs…

Out of the many bands and musicians that have left an impact on the world, The Beatles is undoubtedly the greatest band of all time. This English rock band, that began to take the world by storm in the 1960s, features the singers John Lennon and Paul McCartney, the guitarist Harrison George, and the drummer Ringo Starr. The Beatles introduced a new sound of rock n’ roll while writing songs that ranged from energetic and upbeat to songs that touched the hearts of listeners with their relatable…

Keywords: The Beatles art, The Beatles rock band The Beatles - Truly Modern Rock and Roll Music Band The Beatles are considered to be the greatest rock & roll music band of all generations, and perhaps they are the most powerful and admired act of the 60’s rock era. Nonetheless, one thing is for sure: the influence of the Beatles rock band on modern music is inestimable, and it has at all times been profound.

In particular, Paul McCartney and John Lennon were a musical writing dream team that was able to come up with some of the most iconic and timeless songs ever written. The fact that by their late career they were writing all their songs is one detail that not only separated them from other artists…

“The Beatles” and much of the attention will be focused on talking about its historical sketch, career highlights and the specific reason on why it is meaningful for me. The Beatles, or we say the British rock band, made up of four members of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Stahl. In 1960, the band was established in Liverpool, England, its music style from the 1950s rock and roll, and pioneered the psychedelic rock, pop rock and other genre. In 1962, it released the…

voice to sing to a nation with a blissful attitude. His raspy voice mixed in with the melodic union of strings and other instruments really captures a mood of tranquility exceptionally well. The song would also later inspire other artists like John Lennon to create songs like “Imagine” in an attempt to alleviate the hatred in the world. The production process behind this song really gravitated toward uniting a broken nation through the power of music. Armstrong achieved one of my greatest…
