  1. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

    Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It was written primarily by John Lennon and credited to the Lennon–McCartney songwriting partnership. Lennon's son Julian inspired the song with a nursery school drawing that he called "Lucy – in the sky with diamonds". Shortly before the album's release, speculation arose that the first letter of each of the title nouns intentionally spelled "LSD", the initialism commonly used for the hallucinogenic drug Lysergic acid diethylamide. Lennon repeatedly denied that he had intended it as a drug song. He attributed the song's fantastical imagery to his reading of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland books. The Beatles recorded "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" in March 1967. Adding to the song's ethereal qualities, the musical arrangement includes a Lowrey organ part heavily treated with studio effects, and drone provided by an Indian tambura. The song has been recognised as a key work in the psychedelic genre. Among its many cover versions, a 1974 recording by Elton John, with a guest appearance by Lennon, was a number 1 hit in the US and Canada.

    "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" is a song by the iconic British rock band, The Beatles. It was released in their 1967 album, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band." This song is one of the most controversial by the group, as many assumed it to be a veiled reference to LSD (the initials matching those of the drug) due to its psychedelic imagery. However, the band members, specifically John Lennon, insisted it was inspired by a drawing made by Lennon's son, Julian, depicting his classmate, a girl named Lucy, surrounded by stars.
