This is a video I made from the Beatles song blackbird. I put a bunch of photos of the Beatles together and individually. This is one of my favorite songs.
There is a lot of chat about what the song is about :
This is what it is said to be about or the meaning of, and some other interesting facts.
Paul McCartney wrote this about the civil rights struggle for blacks after reading about race riots in the US.
Only 3 things were recorded: Paul's voice, his acoustic guitar, and a tapping. According to the video The Complete Beatles, the tap was not a foot or metronome - the Master was intentionally scratched. If you listen closely you will notice that is sounds like a scratch on a record. Birds were dubbed in later.
This was one of 5 Beatles songs McCartney performed on his Wings Over America tour in 1976.
Blackbird Singing is the title of a book of poems McCartney wrote.
Brad Mehldau recorded an instrumental jazz version of this in 1997.
In 2002, The Doves covered this on the soundtrack to the TV show Roswell.
At some of McCartney's concerts 2005, he said that one of the first tunes he learned how to play was a riff by Bach, and that modified riff turned into this song.

I love Martha My Dear. I love all the Beatles, why would I hate this song just because I like John? That's ridiculous. Paul's songs inspire me and sometimes even make me cry. It just bothers me that of all his work THIS is the song people talk about.
