"Yesterday" The Beatles

I believe that this song is easily the most iconic of the Beatles songs. "Yesterday" is instantly recognizable and completely embodies the style of the Beatles songs but also still holds a unique twist. The words are simple, so the song is very easy to sing with and the song is also easily stuck in your head.
The tempo is very slow, the tone of Paul McCartney is smooth and soft. The song itself is about a break up between a boy and a girl, where the girl leaves because of something he said, which is why McCartney sings about "believing in yesterday." I really like listening to this song, because like most Beatles songs, there is a feeling of nostalgia that makes the listener wish for yesterday, but a yesterday where the Beatles were all still alive and writing music.
I believe "Yesterday" hit number one in the US charts and was inducted in the hall of fame. The writer, McCartney, came up with the tune during a dream one night, but took several months to figure out the title and appropriate lyrics.
After releasing the song, there were many covers. "Yesterday" is one of the top covered songs of all time, and even the movie being made about the Beatles is titled "Yesterday."
All in all, this is one of my favorite songs to listen to. "Yesterday" has such a unique history, most of which I did not know before, and I only mentioned a small part of it.
