John Lennon hated Paul McCartney's Beatles song so much he said the 'best bit was the end'.
John Lennon and Paul McCartney were the driving forces behind most of The Beatles' iconic hits, though Lennon was never shy about voicing his opinions—especially when it came to McCartney's songwriting. Reflecting on their legendary partnership, Lennon once noted that McCartney brought a sense of brightness and optimism, while his own style leaned more toward melancholy, dissonance, and blues-inspired notes. He admitted there was a time he believed melodies were McCartney’s strength, thinking of himself more as a writer of raw, energetic rock.
After The Beatles disbanded, Lennon became increasingly vocal in his critiques. He took aim at the 1967 Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, dismissed the album Let It Be, and was critical of the final medley on Abbey Road. He also expressed distaste for Hello, Goodbye, a standalone single released in late 1967 shortly after the death of manager Brian Epstein.
