Jude-not Julian Lennon

I wasn’t aware of the origins to Sir Paul’s "Hey Jude."

Always like Jude. The other kid never caught my attention, other than his strikingly similar looks to his father.

Good for Jude!

After 50 years, STILL discovering interesting tidbits-particularly song inspiration. As much as I'm a Fab Four fan, I don't know much beyond basic Beatle "must know" facts-I think? I would not be a category killer on Jeopardy or get Daily Double.

One thing for certain, the Beatles are one of the few bands with endearing fans that have "facts."

Julian was only 5 years old at the time and didn’t grasp the message of the song — which was originally titled “Hey Jules"- as at least some inspiration for the song.
