It was released as a single in 1968 and was accompanied by this promotional video clip, filmed at Twickenham Film Studio. It also has a terrific story, which gives us a glimpse into the band and the kind of relationships they had, which I think has helped cement it into music history. But I think you could argue that it is one of the most memorable as well as one of the most epic, largely owing to the enormous coda that takes up over half the song. So, why 'Hey Jude'? Out of all the great songs that the Beatles penned, it's hardly the most remarkable or unique (nor is it my personal favourite). Over the decade that the Beatles performed they wrote and released countless great songs that have been re-recorded dozens of times.
