The Greatest Song of the Sixties

This was a difficult choice, but to be honest with you it could only be one song and that song came from the songwriting genius Paul McCartney and was performed originally by the fab four, the Beatles.

Let It Be is a song that echoes through time and is never forgotten. It is a song that reaches into your soul and tugs at it so hard that you feel as if you’re going to cry tears of joy and tears of sadness. It is a song that can make even the shallowest of people stop and think. For me, I think of the people I have lost in life, I think of the people I know suffering from illness at this time, and I also remember all the people I met in India who are less fortunate than I am. The song also makes me think of the people I see and speak to almost every day, these people are the homeless who are selling the Big Issue. On my way to and from work, I make an effort to speak to these people. They have problems more severe than anyone else, but they get on with it. The song also makes me think about what lies ahead in my future. It makes me realise that at times things are tough, we don’t always know why, but we must believe that “there will be an answer” and that we must just “let it be”.

My choice for the song of the decade for 1960 is Let It Be by The Beatles.

Have a listen and enjoy:

Gary's Challenge

Hello people,

I apologise for the lack of posting in the past six months, but I'm back and back for good!
The first post is one that announces a challenge that my good friend Gary has given me. I must find and declare my top song from the 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and 2000's. I will post on here each time I find the top song of each decade with a link of how you can listen to it and an explanation as to why it is the top.
Cheers,

Matty
