Let It Be by The Beatles probably doesn't need any special introduction. It's one of the most famous songs released by the famous British quartet. It's ranked number 20 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.
It was released in 1970 as the title track of their album with the same name. Let It Be was the twelfth and final album from The Beatles. The song was written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon, although it is generally accepted to be a McCartney composition.
McCartney said he got inspired to write it after he had a dream of his deceased mother. Let It Be is a beautiful, but sad song. It's a song about death.
