Pop Song 420 of 500 'Hey Jude' The Beatles 1968
It was written by Paul McCartney and credited to the Lennon–McCartney partnership.
The writing and recording of "Hey Jude" coincided with a period of upheaval in the Beatles. The ballad evolved from "Hey Jules", a song McCartney wrote to comfort John Lennon's young son Julian, after Lennon had left his wife for the Japanese artist Yoko Ono. The lyrics espouse a positive outlook on a sad situation, while also encouraging "Jude" to pursue his opportunities to find love.
In May 1968,[4] John Lennon and his wife Cynthia separated due to his affair with Japanese artist Yoko Ono. The following month, Paul McCartney drove out to visit the Lennons' five-year-old son Julian, at Kenwood, the family's home in Weybridge. Cynthia had been part of the Beatles' social circle since before the band's rise to fame in 1963; McCartney later said he found it "a bit much for them suddenly to be personae non gratae and out of my life".Cynthia Lennon recalled of McCartney's surprise visit: "I was touched by his obvious concern for our welfare ... On the journey down he composed 'Hey Jude' in the car. I will never forget Paul's gesture of care and concern in coming to see us."[9] The song's original title was "Hey Jules", and it was intended to comfort Julian from the stress of his parents' separation. McCartney said, "I knew it was not going to be easy for him", and that he changed the name to "Jude" "because I thought that sounded a bit better".
Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Hey Jude, don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better
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
Na, na, na, na-na, na, na, na-na
Hey Jude, don't let me down
You have found her, now go and get her (let it out and let it in)
Remember (hey Jude) to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better
Better, better, better, better (I'm begging you), better, oh!
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude (Jude)
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude
(Yeah, you know you can make)
(Jude, Jude, you're not gonna break it)
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na (don't make it bad, Jude)
(Take a sad song and make it better) na-na-na-na, hey Jude
(Hey Jude, Jude, hey Jude, wow!)
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na (ooh, Jude)
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude (hey Jude)
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude
Na, na, na, na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, hey Jude
