46. Let It Be – The Beatles

There are many songs from The Beatles that deserve to be on this list. Paul McCartney wrote Let It Be in 1970 and focuses mainly on only four piano chords. The song refers to a ‘Mother Mary’, which some consider being a religious reference.

Even though music can be an intimate and personal experience, McCartney has confirmed that it is a reference to his mother who died when he was 14. Apparently, she spoke to him in a dream, reassuring him to ‘let it be’. The rest, as we know, is history.
