From Me To You - Lecture Series 15 (bonus)

In this lecture, Kenyon takes an in-depth look at "From Me to You," a 1963 song by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. As the Beatles’ first number-one hit in the UK, the song showcases their early knack for melody and personal connection with fans. Kenyon explores the song’s structure, including its signature harmonica intro, chord progressions, and its place in the "pronoun game" used by the Beatles to engage listeners directly. He delves into the harmonic shifts, blues influences, and lyrical themes, breaking down how the song’s simplicity belies a sophisticated use of tension and release. The lecture also highlights the unique decision to end with a harmonica phrase that harkens back to the intro. With historical context and musical insights, Kenyon reveals how "From Me to You" fits into the Beatles' broader evolution and the songwriting genius that made them pioneers in pop music.
