The purpose of this research project is to answer the following related questions: “What made the Beatles so influential in the 1960s? Why are they still popular today? What do their songs mean, and why did they write them the way that they did?” Thus, you need to develop an understanding of the psychological, sociological, political, and artistic factors that provide the proper context for understanding the Beatles and their songs.3. You should assume that your audience consists of readers who are already familiar with the Beatles but not with their personal lives, their discography as a whole, or the critics’ opinion of their work.4.
