"John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr of the Beatles started out in Liverpool, England, but it wasn't long before the band took the entire world by storm. As the group ascended to superstardom, the famed foursome expanded their horizons and put down roots around the UK and beyond. The group's 1964 song "I'll Follow the Sun" is "a 'Leaving of Liverpool' song," McCartney explained in his 2021 book The Lyrics. "I'm leaving this rainy northern town for someplace where more is happening.""
"The Beatles' rise to fame is explored in the 2024 documentary Beatles '64 (streaming on Disney+), featuring never-before-seen footage of the group and its packs of fans during the frenzy of Beatlemania. Of course, it wasn't all massive crowds and wild concerts; the four led quieter lives in their time at home, where they penned and practiced some of their greatest hits."
The Beatles formed in Liverpool and rapidly achieved worldwide fame, relocating and establishing homes across the UK and internationally. The 1964 song "I'll Follow the Sun" expresses a desire to leave rainy northern Liverpool for livelier surroundings. The 2024 documentary Beatles '64, streaming on Disney+, includes never-before-seen footage of the group and large crowds during Beatlemania. The band's public frenzy coexisted with quieter domestic lives in which members wrote and rehearsed many of their greatest songs. Photographs and snapshots provide intimate glimpses into private homes and creative moments that contrast with the public spectacle of touring and mass fandom.
