abstract
  • %22Yesterday%22 is a song by English rock band the Beatles written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney) first issued for their U.K. album Help! released August, 1965. Yesterday with B-side Act Naturally was released as a U.S. single September, 1965. While it topped the American chart in 1965 the song first hit the British top 10 three months after the release of Help! in a cover version by Matt Monro. The song also appeared on the Beatles' U.S. album Yesterday and Today released June, 1966.McCartney's vocal and acoustic guitar together with a string quartet essentially made for the first solo performance of the band. It remains popular today with more than 2,200 cover versions and is one of the most covered songs in the history of recorded music.%22Yesterday%22 was voted the best song of the 20th century in a 1999 BBC Radio 2 poll of music experts and listeners and was also voted the No. 1 pop song of all time by MTV and Rolling Stone magazine the following year. In 1997, the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI) asserts that it was performed over seven million times in the 20th century alone.%22Yesterday%22 is a melancholy ballad about the break-up of a relationship. McCartney is the only member of the Beatles to appear on the recording. The final recording was so different from other works by the Beatles that the band members vetoed the release of the song as a single in the United Kingdom. However, it was issued as a U.S. single in 1965 and reissued there in 1976.
