History

I am going to talk about the history of a rock band. They are called "the most successful band in the world". I think  it's true. Their name is the Beatles.

They formed in Liverpool in 1960 and consisted of John Lennon, Paul McCatney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. They changed a lot in music history. Their's is famous story. They released their first album "Please Please Me" in the UK in 1964 and it had huge sales. It was numer one on the hit chart for 30 weeks. On the 31st week, this album went down to number two on the chart. Who's album was number one instead of them? It's also well-known rock band. Can you take a stab? ー It is Beatles. It was their second album and the album was number one on the for 22 weeks. This means their albums were number one on the chart for around one year. By the way, this record, that an album stays number one for 30 weeks, has not even broken now.

John Lennon got married with Yoko Ono in 1961 and he was influenced by her. He would composing love songs but after marrie he become compose about peace and pacifism. The U.S.A had a war going on then. John Lennon was murdered by a psychoticman named Mark Chapman in 1980. But some people insiste that CIA or FBI murdered him to avert public opinion from the pacifism because his songs and his message had strong influence on people. It is debatable still today.

When John Lennon died at the hospital,  the Beatles's hit song "All My Loving" was playing at the hospital.
Thank you.
