WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW – EPISODE 43 – BEATLES LOVE SONGS

On the first Friday of each month from 6-7 PM, Cindy Sullivan presents music and chat with a philosophical edge. This special 2 hour episode of ‘What The World Needs Now’ was broadcast on Southern FM on Friday 21st June 2024. In this episode, Cindy proposes that ‘what the world needs now’ is BEATLES’ LOVE SONGS. Cindy plays some of her favourite Beatles’ love songs and interviews a fan whose mother went to the 1964 concert at Festival Hall in Melbourne.

Global Beatles Day (also known as World Beatles Day) is celebrated on 25 June, to commemorate the date that the Beatles participated in the BBC show Our World in 1967, performing “All You Need Is Love” broadcast to an international audience. The holiday was created and first celebrated in 2009 by Beatles fan Faith Cohen, who calls it “a thank you or love letter to The Beatles.”
