In 1968, Paul McCartney visited Julian Lennon, the five-year-old son of John and Cynthia Lennon, during a difficult time following their separation. On a quiet drive, McCartney hummed a melody to comfort the boy, originally calling it “Hey Jules,” and told him, “Take a sad song and make it better.” This heartfelt moment inspired the legendary Beatles song Hey Jude, which would become one of the most beloved and enduring ballads in music history.

Released the same year, Hey Jude topped charts worldwide and remains a symbol of hope, empathy, and emotional connection. The song highlights McCartney’s genius in turning personal compassion into a universal anthem, demonstrating how a small act of care can resonate across generations.
