‘Help!’ — The Beatles
In 1980, John Lennon told Playboy that the song “Help!” had hidden depths that he himself was unaware of. In July 1965, at the height of Beatlemania, the song was released as a single. “Most people think it’s just a fast rock ‘n’ roll song,” he shared, “Subconsciously, I was crying out for help. I didn’t realize it at the time; I just wrote the song because I was commissioned to write it for the movie.”
