The Beatles’ song that was Paul McCartney’s ‘best’ but John Lennon hated…..

It was never a problem for John Lennon to say what was on his mind or to stir up controversy. He made the famous statement that The Beatles were “more popular than Jesus” in an interview in 1966, which resulted in a great deal of criticism from Christians in the United States.

John continued to make contentious remarks after he left the band. He was candid about the aspects of being a member of The Beatles that he did not enjoy, and he also took aim at some of the music that they had worked on.

Previous investigations conducted by the ECHO have focused on John’s distaste for the otherwise universally acclaimed album “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” as well as his arguments with Paul McCartney regarding the parts of particular songs that each of them had contributed to.

‘Let it Be’ was one of such songs, and it was composed by Sir Paul in the year 1968. When asked about the origin of the song, Sir Paul stated that the concept occurred to him in a dream during a very stressful moment for The Beatles.

This was due to the fact that the sessions for ‘The White Album’ caused significant conflicts among the band. When Sir Paul was only 14 years old, his mother Mary passed away from cancer in the year 1956. It was in the dream that she appeared, assuring her son that everything will be well.

These are the first lyrics of the song, which go as follows: “When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me.” The act of uttering words of wisdom, this shall be.” When asked about the process of writing the song, Sir Paul said, “It was wonderful to visit with her once more.”

I counted myself really fortunate to have that dream. Consequently, that inspired me to write “Let It Be.” The song, which is about hope, faith, and resiliency, is extremely meaningful to a great number of people; nevertheless, it appears that John was never a fan of it.

According to Chris Ingham’s book “The Rough Guide to The Beatles,” John made the erroneous assumption that Sir Paul had recently imitated the song “Bridge Over Troubled Water” by Simon and Garfunkel. However, the song “Let it Be” was actually composed a year earlier.

John aimed his question at the message conveyed by the song by asking, “Are we supposed to giggle in the solo?” while the recording was in progress. Despite the fact that he had left the band, he continued to drip cold water over it.
