Hey Jude

"Hey Jude" is a song by the Beatles, written by Paul McCartney and originally recorded in the key of F major. It was released as a single in 1968 and later included in the album "The Beatles," also known as the "White Album." The song was composed by McCartney to console John Lennon's son, Julian, during Lennon's divorce. Fun fact, the running time of the song was around seven minutes, which was considered unusually long for a single at the time. "Hey Jude" features a memorable melody characterized by its catchy chorus and heartfelt lyrics that became one of the Beatles' most iconic and enduring hits.
