About Hey Jude

Hey Jude is a song attributed to Paul McCartney and John Lennon (but largely the work of McCartney). It was originally recorded by The Beatles for the self-titled The Beatles album (also known unofficially as the White Album), but released instead as a single. The song, despite its unusual length of 7 minutes, 11 seconds on the original 45 rpm version, became the Beatles' best-selling single. But they did produce a shortened version for American radio because most stations refused to play a song of such length.

The song, originally titled Hey Jules, was written by McCartney to comfort John Lennon's son Julian when John and his first wife, Cynthia Powell, were getting divorced. John himself appreciated the song greatly too, as he had just begun his relationship with his future second wife, Yoko Ono. McCartney had also just broken up with Jane Asher and was about to start seeing Linda Eastman.

About the Fanlisting

In general, a fanlisting is just a place for fans of a certain thing, such as a TV show, a band or in this case, a song, to come together to share their love. For more fanlistings, please visit TheFanlistings.org.

I created this fanlisting for Hey Jude because I love this song. I believe that it is one of the most lasting and monumental songs of all time. The name You'll Do was taken from a line in the song. As for the layout, I used a random pic of The Beatles. Links to brushes and patterns used can be found here.
