  • Discover little-known stories behind classic hits on Music 101 with Mr. G. Mick Smith.
    Dec 15 2024

    Behind many classic hits lie little-known stories that add depth to their legacy. Some songs were born out of spontaneous inspiration, like Yesterday by The Beatles, which Paul McCartney famously claimed came to him in a dream. Others emerged from personal struggles, such as Eric Clapton’s Tears in Heaven, a poignant tribute to his late son. Certain hits were even rejected before their rise to fame—Frank Sinatra’s My Way was initially considered too risky, but it became a defining anthem. Meanwhile, Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody faced skepticism from producers for being too unconventional, only to become an iconic masterpiece. These hidden tales reveal the serendipity, emotion, and persistence that often define timeless music.
