Masterpieces and Popular Songs by The Beatles (111–120)
This boyThe Beatles
An early Beatles song, one of John’s specialty unrequited-love numbers.
John himself seemed quite satisfied with how it turned out, and afterward he wrote a sort of follow-up, “Yes It Is.” Still, what truly gives this song its sense of reality is, above all, John’s heartrending voice.
Martha My DearThe Beatles
The Beatles’ “Martha My Dear” is a song that Paul McCartney wrote about his feelings when he got his first pet, an Old English Sheepdog named Martha.
No matter how mischievous she was or what she did, he just found her irresistibly adorable.
The lyrics convey the affection of a devoted owner, paired with a beautiful, quintessentially Beatles melody—both major charms of the song.
Although it was cut from the 2009 remastered version, the piano played by Paul, who is said to have taught himself the instrument, is another wonderful highlight—so be sure to compare the versions and give it a listen!
With A Little Help From My FriendThe Beatles
It’s the second track on their eighth studio album, Sgt.
Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, released in 1967.
Mainly written by Paul, with Ringo Starr on lead vocals.
The lyrics are essentially about how “with a little help from my friends, I can do anything.”
I’m so TiredThe Beatles
It’s a song by the legendary rock band everyone knows, the Beatles, that feels like it’s singing about being worn out just as it is.
John Lennon’s vocals, where he keeps saying how tired he is, are especially striking.
That slightly slack, laid-back feel might be just right for when you’re in the mood to zone out.
Happy Birthday To YouThe Beatles
“Happy Birthday To You” is a track from The Beatles Collection, released in 1978.
The Beatles are a four-piece rock band from Liverpool, England.
They formed the Quarrymen in 1957, renamed themselves The Beatles in 1960, made their record debut in 1962, and disbanded in 1970.
Mr. MoonlightThe Beatles
This song was released in 1962 by R&B singer Piano Red.
It became widely known after the Beatles included it on their 1964 album Beatles for Sale.
The narrator, who encounters Mr.
Moonlight on a summer night, wishes for him to come again—but perhaps the season we’re thinking of is autumn.
Happy BirthdayThe Beatles
The Beatles are singing Happy Birthday.
I didn’t know footage like this existed.
If you play this song, it might end up being a birthday where the parents are even more excited than the kids—like, “It’s the Beatles!”
