Formed in 1960 in Liverpool (England), The Beatles quickly became an international rock symbol and legend. You could hear their songs everywhere back then and you can still hear their masterpieces being played around today, and not just from the older folks. The Beatles in fact is cool within Gen Z audience ā so much so that in late 2019, CNBC wrote on a piece analyzing the magic of the band's longevity and how their music stays relevant.
Year after year, The Beatles receives over 1.5 billion streams annually on Spotify alone
Within the karaoke realm, The Beatles' songs are the go-to karaoke songs for many, and they are one of the most popular artists for karaoke in Singa.
Here are 10 best The Beatles karaoke songs of all time:
1. Let It Be
Let It Be is undoubtedly the most popular song from the legendary Fab Four. The lyrics, melody and vocals work wonderfully together to bring about a sense of calmness, comfort and even hope. It's a great song for all time, but especially for when one is having a tough time.
2. Help!
The Beatles once again mastered the art of story-telling and capturing complex emotions with this number.
When I was younger, so much younger than today, I never needed anybody's help in any way. But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured
3. Hey Jude
Whenever Hey Jude is sung in karaoke, nobody can refrain from joining in its famous Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah chorus. This anthem has the power to transcend time, age, race, anything and everything. It turns a moment into a lasting memory.
4. Come Together
I can't count how many times I've heard this song in karaoke, and yet not once did it fail to excite people. Come Together's appeal lies in its serious bass, cool drum as well as amazing guitar and organ solos. The song is extremely catchy and sexy.
Many famous artists like Michael Jackson and Aerosmith also did covers of this song.
5. Yesterday
Story goes that the melody of Yesterday came to Paul McCartney in his sleep one day. Just wow!
6. All You Need Is Love
Besides its great message, All You Need Is Love could be a good karaoke choice for those who are not very confident of their singing skills. I believe that one can simply read the lyrics (as if they were speaking it to somebody) and still rock the song.

7. Twist and Shout
Even tho The Beatles didn't write this song (credit goes to Bert Berns who originally had gotten inspired from the Mexican folk tune La Mamba), they definitely lifted Twist and Shout to a new height within pop culture.
If you wanna drive the crowd crazy, this song won't let you down. Grab the mic and start twisting!

8. Back In The U.S.S.R.
One of the more controversial song from The Beatles. A political statement? A mockery? A musical experiment?

9. I Want To Hold Your Hand
I Want To Hold Your Hand marries African American rhythm and blues, West Coast surf music and rock ānā roll beautifully. Many believe that this is "THE" song that started the American Beatlemania in the first place.
The song is a simple and sweet love confession. If you don't know how to ask out a woman of your dream, maybe you can sing this to her?

A passionate love letter sang from the rooftop. Do you need more convincing?
