What are the most popular Beatle ballads? The “Fool on the Hill” is a wonderful version from 1967 written and sung by Paul McCartney and was recorded in September 1967.

“Yesterday” may be the most played song on the radio of all time, a ballad that was also covered more than 2,400 times by artists ranging from the Carpenters to William Shatner of Star Trek fame.

“She’s Leaving Home” was never intended to be anything more than a filler song for an album, but the Lennon/McCartney lyrics broke through the noise to make this ballad a cult favorite.

“Do You Want To Know A Secret” and “You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away” proved to be early hits for the boys from Liverpool, offering early Beatle fans and their parents a safe harbor from the day’s rock and roll.

“Hey Jude” and “Let It Be” are classic reminders that the Beatles were coming to an end; the lyrics seem haunting today given how the band members slowly drifted apart.
