Beatles songs: Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds

 Beatle songs: Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds by ric gustafson


One day in 1967, Julian Lennon showed his father a drawing he had done at nursery school. He explained to his father that it was a drawing of a classmate of his. Her name was Lucy O'Donnell. Young Julian called the drawing ' Lucy in the sky with diamonds'. John loved the title. Lucy lived near the Lennon home.
By the time Paul came to help complete the song, only the first verse and the chorus was done. John and Paul finished the lines and the images for the new song.
The song was included on the album ' Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band'. The album was released in June 1967.
