The Reviews about Blackbird (page 3/ 10)
------ performed by The Beatles


Civil Rights Movement and "Blackbird" | Reviewer: Lynda | 4/19/09

I think all songs are open to personal interpretation, but straight from the man himself, here is Paul talking about "Blackbird" and the Civil Rights Movement of the '60s at the Coachella Festival on April 18, 2009...enjoy! (youtube)

thank them for the song | Reviewer: horacio | 4/7/09

i´m alone since one year. i´ve heard this song this morning after let my little daughter at school and i can´t stop crying. i understand breezie about the moments but i wish her keep and enjoy the present moment dancing with her child.



Life-long memory moment | Reviewer: Breezie | 4/4/09

I've been singing this song to my son since the day he was born. Tonight, with him now being 27 months old, I held him in my arms and danced with him around the living room as he sang the entire song along with me, "...blackbird fly..." in his amazing little-boy voice. I will remember this forever, and keep the visual of it and his beautiful face smiling up at me in my mind for the rest of my life. And not to sound morbid, but I hope that at the end of my life, that this memory it is the last thing that I think of when it's my time to go.

I'm so glad this song exists.



HOPE | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/10/09

My school is doing RELAY FOR LIFE in May and my vocal group is going to sing this song because of the amazing message, and because of how the lyrics speak to you especially when they are being related to cancer.



blackbird | Reviewer: alexis | 12/10/08

C'mon Dan... | Reviewer: Thiago | 12/9/08

In the "Back to U.S DVD", Paul speaks to the audience about the song. He said that in England, sometimes they call girls "birds" and in the 60's there were a lot of problems regarding civil rights... specially in the southern states of the US.. so, he wrote this song with that in mind...



Inspiring, perhaps more than hope | Reviewer: Lucius | 11/30/08

I really thin this is a beautiful song, not only because of the outstanding acoustics but the lyrics as well, and you can argue over what it means as much as you want but all that really matters is how inspiring it is. The song basically means that things are gonna get better, after all the time you've been waiting for. It's not particularly about world peace or anything in particular, it could be about anything like a relation, but it can pertain to any situation, and how its always darkest right before dawn, things are gonna get better. This song inspires Hope above all else.

Don't give up on life.

THE TRUTH. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/15/08

i cant tell you how many times i've listened to this song in the last week. its a good song to cry to. it is just so simple and sweet, and somewhat easy to play on guitar. blackbird will live on for every, as will the beatles. and john lennon isn't dead.. he is just hiding from "all the lonely people" - "Eleanor Rigby" think about it.



...Not really, actually =) | Reviewer: johannes | 10/4/08

Dan, your theory, or as you call it 'the only interpretation' is flawed in one essential place.
You say that it was about a black woman in liverpool that john knew in his childhood. Apart from the fact that racial discrimination was less frequent in 1940's or 50' europe than it was in america, there is also the problem that john did not write this song.
I've read in some interviews this song is about the civil rights movement, with special emphasis on black women, but it wasn't from a distant childhood memory. Remember this song was written in 1968, a famous year in history for what happened to the civil rights movement.
Anyway, i think we'll both agree that it's a great song!
