yes. I broke 1000 views. here is some information about this song you might like to know. "Dear Prudence" is a song written by John Lennon and credited to Lennon/McCartney. It was initially performed by The Beatles and is the second track on the 1968 double-disc album The Beatles (also known as "The White Album"). It was recorded in one take at Abbey Road on 28 August 1968. The song is about actress Mia Farrow's sister, Prudence, who was present when the Beatles visited Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in India. Prudence, focused on meditation, stayed in her room for the majority of their stay. Lennon, who was worried that she was depressed, wrote this song for her, inviting her to "come out to play". While the Beatles left the course, Mia, Prudence, Mike Love of the Beach Boys, and others, stayed and became Transcendental Meditation (or TM) teachers. Prudence now teaches elementary school along with her husband, and they both still practice TM, and advanced versions of it, and may still teach TM. This song, along with the preceding track "Back in the U.S.S.R.", features Paul McCartney on drums rather than Ringo Starr, who had recently walked out. Starr returned after the recording of this song to find flowers waiting for him on his drumkit. Lennon considered this song to be one of his favorite Beatles songs, and his son Julian Lennon has named it his favorite. In 1987, Lennon's original handwritten copy of the lyrics was sold at auction for $19,500.

dude, right on. The Beatles will NEVER go out of style. Unlike some of these superficial bands nowadays.

1968, The White Album. Wow what a beautiful song, I love that somewhat melancholic guitar. Forty years old and the song still sounds as fresh as this morning.

What a song - what a voice. Lennon wrote it about Prudence Farrow (sister of Mia) becuase she basically locked herself away for hours and hours somewhere in India trying to perfect transcendental meditation.

trust me dude, It was hard for me to do so. I mean I saw Beatlemania in 1979 and totally got mesmorized by "I am the Walrus". I was 15. It was then, after how many years of Beatle obsession that I finally could choose. But there are so many others that come oh so close. As far as I am concerned, these songs are all sacred.Nothing has come close. I still get goose bumps and butterflies in my stomach, and have a self induced psychodelic trip every time I hear their songs, especially these two.
