Released in August of 1968, "Hey Jude" is likely the most popular song by the most popular rock band of all time, The Beatles. Written by Paul McCartney, the single for Hey Jude was the Beatles' first release on their Apple Corps record label.

Then, by digging through Beatles history of the era and dissecting the lyrics line-by-line, we'll show who and what exactly Hey Jude is about.

...The answer may surprise you!
