Paul McCartney's mother (who died in 1956 of breast cancer) came to him in a dream one night when he was feeling a little stressed, depressed, harried. His mother told him "Let it be" "put away all those fears and doubts, and drugs, and booze, and just let it be, it will all work out".

@@nonrepublicrat Many of us fans of the Beatles knew long before "wikipedia" that Paul's mother's name was Mary, we knew ALL the names of their family members. Don't assume that someone who gives information got it from wikipedia, and not from their own knowledge that they knew for many years. 😊

Every Beatles song is different!

Clean and tasteful guitar work by George.

I lost my Mom last whose name was Mary, this beautiful song give me great comfort, let it be

More than a song... it's a hymn!!

These are great words - LET IT BEE, All the troubles with EVERYTHING we have, we have to let it be. THAT'S what it means.

Paul McCartney (the one with the beard on the upper right of the album cover) wrote this song about his late mother who came to him in a dream when he was depressed about The Beatles breaking up. Her advice to him was”Let It Be”. Things will work themselves out.

Simply the best band there ever was, and probably ever will be.

Best band in history.❤

Top selling musicians of all time.

I was 13 when I listened to the Beatles on the radio in 1963. I instantly fell in love with them. "I want to hold your hand" and "She loves you" were my first single. Now I am 73 and I play "Let it be" and "Hey Jude" and "Imagine" on the piano in a retirement home and people still love it. This music is timeless and I am so happy to have experienced it in my youth..... greetings from Germany, Monika.

No, the magic was NOT their versatility, the "magic" of the Beatles' was that their writing and performing were on a higher level than any other band before or since.

The Beatles are a genre all to themselves, because they did all styles of music. From rock to blues, ballads to novelty songs. Their fame, which was literally unprecedented at that time, empowered them to try everything. They were really a gift to the world that will never stop giving.

What takes this song to church is Billy Preston's organ licks at 2:36. Great guitar solo by George. Love the angelic background harmonies, too. Superb!

I know I am repeating what a lot of others have said but, THE BEATLES are the GREATEST Rock band that ever was or will ever be

Every Beatles song is sooooo different in styles and genre's, genius. The biggest best band ever.

George Harrison's beautiful guitar playing comes through strong on this song.

The Beatles are the gold standard.

Mary was Paul McCartney's mother. She died when Paul was young. The song describes his thoughts about his "mum" when he would be worried or concerned about things, and she would come to his mind and tell him don't worry about it, let it be, or just let it go.

This is the song that inspired me, as a young teen, to play the piano. I taught myself this song by ear. It took me weeks but I did it! Then I started taking piano lessons.

Sing the songs. All the best. Cheers.

Let it be the best song of the Beatles

I grew up with the Beatles music & had most of their records. They were part of the British Invasion. You can't go wrong with any of their music. They had so many great songs in the 60's. This song is the title track from the final studio album "Let It Be" that was released on May 1970, almost a month after the group's break-up. It had a lot of good songs on it. "The Long & Winding Road", "Get Back", "Across The Universe" etc.

I remember hearing this song for the 1st time back in middle school in the seventies. Was already a fan of the early Beatles from the sixties, this just pushed it higher.

@Ebony &Ivory- This was Paul McCartney singing and When he refers to mother Mary he is talking about his mom. Her name was Mary and she died When Paul was just a teenager. The same with John Lennon. His mom also died when he was a teenager. So they both had that in common.

When humankind is exploring other orbs in our solar system for future habitation, The Beatles' music will be played on the shuttles.

Paul McCartney of the Beatles wrote this song. He said his mother, who died when he was 14, came to him one night in his sleep, when he was worrying about something, and just said 'Let it be'. And Paul Mccartney, who has written more hit songs than anyone, alive or dead, turned those 7 letters, just 3 simple words, into one of the the greatest songs ever written. That is musical genius.

Paul never deliberately made it ambiguous when he wrote it, it was simply about him dreaming of his mother Mary saying "Let it Be' It wasn't until he saw that some people were taking it as referring to the VIRGIN MARY and feeling it was a religious song, that he stated in interviews that it wasn't his intention, that he was referring to his mom, but he said it was OK with him, if some people think of it in the religious vein and that it is the Virgin Mother.
