4 of the Beatles' Best Ballads Worth Revisiting

23 December, 2024 - 0 Comments

The Beatles knew how to produce hit after hit throughout their career like it was easy. And quite a few of those hits were heartwrenching ballads. Let’s take a look at a few of The Beatles’ best ballads worth revisiting! Just keep in mind that this list is far from exhaustive. The Fab Four put out far too many memorable ballads to include on such a short list!
1. “And I Love Her”

This ballad from A Hard Day’s Night came from a period of The Beatles’ career when John Lennon and Paul McCartney were interested in penning soft, delicate tracks. And they definitely succeeded in that with “And I Love Her”.

Written by McCartney, this song is a dramatic ballad and an ode to falling in love with that special person. Even though McCartney should get the most credit for this track, we can’t help but applaud George Harrison for his guitar riff contribution to “And I Love Her”.
2. “Blackbird”

Some would say “Blackbird” is the very best out of all of The Beatles’ ballads. We can certainly understand why many fans would agree with that sentiment. This standout track from The White Album was McCartney’s attempt to write a soothing anthem of sorts for African-American women who were struggling during the Civil Rights movement in the United States at the time.
