"Yesterday"

This week I have decided to do “Yesterday, by Paul McCartney and the Beatles. This song was the first solo record by any one of the Beatles, seeing as how Paul was the only one involved in the recording, although the entire band plays the instrumental part of the song. At concerts and performances, this is a very popular song. Even today, with George, and John passed away, Paul will still play this song on request.

“Yesterday,” was written by Paul McCartney, in 1965. This song is one of the top covered songs of all times throughout the world. It can be found on the Beatles' album HELP!. Paul was taking a nap one day and woke up with a song stuck in his head. Many people suffer from this everyday. The one thing that stuck out about this, was that no one had ever heard of the song he had stuck in his head. It was later that Paul and the band realized that he had dreamt up the song. He wrote down what he could remember and then together the band filled in the rest.

"Yesterday" Lyrics

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, I yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go I don't know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm
