“Let It Be” is a song by The Beatles released in 1970. It was written by Paul McCartney and became one of the band’s most iconic compositions. The inspiration for the song came in a dream McCartney had about his mother, Mary, who passed away when he was young. In the dream, his mother spoke to him and told him that everything would be fine, suggesting that he simply let things flow (“let it be”).
The recording of “Let It Be” was part of an album of the same name and was also the title of a documentary showing the creation of the album. The song is noted for its positive and comforting message, and has come to be regarded as one of The Beatles’ most moving compositions.
