Recently, i am so hooked on this Beatles classic, "Let It Be". It's such a beautiful song that has a very meaningful message behind. I learnt about this song when my favourite contestant on this year's idol, Brooke White, sang it during Top 12 week (Lennon and McCartney song book). I love how she has got this vulnerability in her tone and she sang this song with so much emotion and conviction. Her slightly husky and lower voice makes her stand out among all the female contestants and it's sad that she's voted out last week, placing her at a respectable fifth place. But at least she did have many wonderful standout performances.


The Beatles - Let It Be

When I find myself in times of trouble

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.


And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.


Let it be, let it be, Let it be.

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.


And when the broken hearted people

Living in the world agree that there will be an answer, let it be.

For though they may be parted there is

Still a chance that they will see

There will be an answer, let it be.


Let it be, let it be, Let it be.

Yeah

There will be an answer, let it be.


And when the night is cloudy,

There is still a light that shines on me,

Shine until tomorrow, let it be.

I wake up to the sound of music,

Mother Mary comes to me,

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.


Let it be, let it be, let it be.

There will be an answer, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be,

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be, let it be,

There will be an answer, let it be.
