It’s said that their show was the first rock concert ever held at that venue.

Masterpieces and popular songs by The Beatles (1–10)
In My LifeThe Beatles
It’s a beautiful song that turns John’s childhood memories of his hometown into a love song as he sings.
The vocal harmonies are relaxed and refined, but what truly defines the track is the old-fashioned, silky piano in the instrumental break.
Performed by George Martin, it was recorded with the tape speed reduced, creating a distinctive floating sensation.
Strawberry Fields ForeverThe Beatles
It’s a psychedelic song titled after a real orphanage where John used to play as a child.
John’s vocals, gently singing world-weary, enlightened lyrics, resonate deeply with the heart.
Miraculously stitched together from two takes with different tempos and keys, the piece builds magnificently from a leisurely first half into a raucous second half.
She Loves YouThe Beatles
A lively early Beatles hit with the memorable “Yeah Yeah Yeah!” chorus, this was from the period when every song they released shot to number one—and the only time they’d be knocked off the top was by their own next single, as the whole world was swept up in Beatlemania.
True to the Beatles’ style, the song isn’t just a straightforward love song; it adds a clever twist by having the singer speak to you about her feelings for you.
The Beatles AnthologyThe Beatles
This documentary features the members themselves recounting the history the Beatles have traveled, tracing the path of their legendary miracles.
With footage from their active years and interviews conducted at various times, you can feel the band’s journey—including their emotions.
Scenes of massive crowds, ads displayed around town, and the major events they appeared at all convey just how important this band was.
Another highlight is the behind-the-scenes insights into what the members were thinking amid all that frenzy.
Christmas Time Is Here AgainThe Beatles
This song was recorded in 1967 and was distributed on the fan club Christmas record “Christmas Time Is Here Again!” A shortened version was later released in December 1995 as the B-side of the single “Free as a Bird.” Since the same phrase repeats throughout the song, it should be easy for first-time listeners to pick up.
You might find it most enjoyable to sing along in a big group! If you gradually build up the energy as you go, it won’t feel monotonous and will have a nice sense of dynamics.
