To celebrate Paul McCartney’s 80th birthday, Sean Ono Lennon delivered a heartfelt tribute with an intimate acoustic performance of Here, There and Everywhere on June 18, 2022.

With just his voice and guitar, Sean honored McCartney’s timeless songwriting in a way that felt both personal and deeply meaningful. The tribute resonated with fans, not just for its beauty, but for the emotional connection it represented—one generation of musicians paying homage to another.

“A little birdy told me this was one of your fav Beatles tunes, so Happy Birthday,” wrote Lennon on Instagram. “Thank you for all the beautiful music. You have mine and the whole world’s undying love and respect.” He added, “This version is a bit rough because it’s such a pretty song I kept getting choked up and starting again.”

Sean Ono Lennon and Paul McCartney share a close friendship and a deep musical connection. Sean is the son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, while Paul was John’s bandmate in The Beatles. Over the years, Paul has expressed affection for Sean, seeing him as a reminder of John.

Paul McCartney has often called “Here, There and Everywhere” one of his favorite songs, and it’s easy to see why. Written in 1966 for Revolver, the track captures a dreamy, heartfelt essence that stands among The Beatles’ most beautiful ballads.

At the time, McCartney was deeply inspired by The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds—especially God Only Knows, which he considers a masterpiece. That influence led him to craft this tender love song while visiting John Lennon’s home in Weybridge.

“I sat out by the pool on one of the sun chairs with my guitar and started strumming in E,” said McCartney. “And soon [I] had a few chords, and I think by the time he’d woken up, I had pretty much written the song, so we took it indoors and finished it up.”
