Video: You Can Now Travel The World With The Beatles Lyrics!
A new video uses Google Maps to take Beatles fans on a world tour, covering more than 25,000 miles, using the group's lyrics as a guide.
Produced by Vanity Fair, the nearly 13-minute clip begins in their hometown of Liverpool. In addition to obvious places like Penny Lane and Strawberry Field, Beatles songs that reference their parents (like "Julia" and "Let It Be") are matched with John Lennon's and Paul McCartney's childhood homes.
After three-and-a-half minutes, the video turns from Liverpool to Blackburn ("A Day in the Life") and the Scottish town of Kircaldy ("Cry Baby Cry") before flying to London, where Buckingham Palace ("Her Majesty"), the Royal Albert Hall and the House of Lords and Bishopsgate ("Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!") are acknowledged.
