[Alicia Keys]
John and I are both deeply inspired by the music of the 1960s
We stand in the shadow of timeless and monumental artists like the Beatles and Stevie Wonder, Bob Dylan, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin
The forever changed what popular music could say and what it could mean

[John Legend]
The masterpiece we're about to play tonight was written by Paul just as the Beatles were breaking up. Paul dreamt of his mother Mary, who he lost when he was 15, comforting him and telling him everything was gonna be ok. It's a song that comforted generations with its beauty and its message


When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
When the brokenhearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted
There is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be now, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
When the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Oh, let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Oh, now let it be
