Each Sunday I post a music clip at our site and detail some of the history behind the song and the artist. I haven't posted them here before, because I'm still not sure of the protocol with regard to linking back to the site I post at. Today's song is 'Let It Be' from The Beatles, and even though it's probably a song we have all heard hundreds of times, if not more, most of us are unaware of the history of the song, in its many different versions.
Thanks, I am a big Beatles fan, and these were nostalgic to watch. I enjoyed all three versions, but it sure made me feel old, especially the Ed Sullivan voice intro on the last video. I still remember watching them make their American debut on his show and my father shaking his head and proclaiming their hair was filthy, lol.
Your father was ahead of his time.
True. But they were pretty clean looking on the Ed Sullivan show. The rest came later.
Sorry Guys.
It seems that for some reason or other the link seems to be corrupted.
This is the new link.
