The Beatles - Hey Jude - quick facts and bio


* Hey Jude was released as a single in August 1968 and did not appear on any album at the time


* Hey Jude was No.1 for an incredible 9 weeks in America and was the group's biggest selling record


* Hey Jude was originally conceived when Paul McCartney was driving his car

* Lots of unconfirmed ideas on who Jude was - from John Lennon's son Julian to Bob Dylan to John Lennon himself


* John Lennon felt 'Hey Jude' was the best song that Paul McCartney had ever written


* A thirty six piece orchestra was used in the Coda of 'Hey Jude'. It adds great punch and weight to the end of the song using huge simple chords which underlie the simple but effective and repetitive chant


* Nevertheless Hey Jude is very much a piano based song and can sound great using only piano and voice. The song has a beautiful piano accompaniment and catchy melody


* Hey Jude - 7 minutes 20 seconds (mono) and 7 minutes 11 seconds (stereo) was an attempt by the Beatles to get away from the three minute pop song. This was their answer to Bob Dylan's Desolation Row - 11 minutes 21 seconds and Jimmy Webb's MacArthur Park - 7 minutes 21 seconds. MacArthur Park was sung by Richard Harris
