The Beatles: Across the Universe (1969)

"Across the Universe" first appeared on the charity album No One's Gonna Change Our World, which featured songs from The Hollies, Lulu, the Bee Gees, and others. The song later appeared on Let It Be.  The opening line "words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup" came to John Lennon after listening to his ex-wife Cynthia prattle on about something. He turned that moment into a song. The song later helped inspire a film of the same name that featured Beatles songs.
