In the final stretch of the album Abbey Road (1969), The Beatles They signed their farewell with a track as brief and powerful: “The End”Although it appears as part of the famous medley of the album, the song works as an musical and spiritual epilogue of the Fab Four of Liverpool.
Written by Paul McCartneythe work has a very remembered final line: “And in the end, The Love You take is equal to the love you make.” This phrase managed to resonate strongly in many fans of the British team, as well as in John Lennonwho did not usually hide his skepticism towards the most melodic or sentimental work of his partner.
“That is from Paul again, the unfinished song, right? We are in Abbey Road. Just a piece at the end, “Lennon said in 1980.”I had a line in it -[canta] ‘And in the end, the love you get is equal to the love you give [sic]’- which is a very cosmic, philosophical line. What demonstrates, once again, that if you want, you can think”He added.
Lennon’s recognition is not less, especially if you take into account how critic it was with some of the Beatles creations, especially with Paul’s, after the group decided to take separate paths.
