In the early 1960s, the Beatles were just a group of aspiring musicians, eagerly awaiting their big break. Little did they know that their debut single, 'Love Me Do,' would be the catalyst that launched them into superstardom. In the first episode of Paul McCartney's podcast, McCartney: A Life in Lyrics, the legendary rocker takes us on a journey back to those early days and shares the Beatles' perspective on fame.
McCartney reflects on the advice they received at the time, emphasizing the importance of not trying too hard and not reaching too far for success. He recalls their mantra, born out of a serendipitous event—a minor car crash that left them stranded in a snowy bank. As they contemplated their predicament, someone in the group uttered the phrase, 'Well, something'll happen.' And from that moment on, it became a guiding principle for the Beatles.
