------------------------

"Yellow Submarine" is a 1966 song by the Beatles, written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon--McCartney), with lead vocals by Ringo Starr.
It was included on the Revolver album and issued as a single, coupled with "Eleanor Rigby".
The single went to number 1 on every major British chart, remained at number 1 for four weeks and charted for 13 weeks.
It won an Ivor Novello Award "for the highest certified sales of any single issued in the UK in 1966".
In the U.S., the song peaked at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and became the most successful Beatles song to feature Ringo Starr as lead vocalist.

It became the title song of the 1968 animated United Artists film, also called Yellow Submarine, and the soundtrack album to the film, released as part of the Beatles' music catalogue.
Although intended as a nonsense song for children, "Yellow Submarine" received various social and political interpretations at the time.

Composition

McCartney was living in Jane Asher's parents' house when he found the inspiration for the song: "I was laying in bed in the Ashers' garret... I was thinking of it as a song for Ringo, which it eventually turned out to be, so I wrote it as not too rangey in the vocal, then started making a story, sort of an ancient mariner, telling the young kids where he'd lived. It was pretty much my song as I recall... I think John helped out. The lyrics got more and more obscure as it goes on, but the chorus, melody and verses are mine."
The song began as being about different coloured submarines, but evolved to include only a yellow one.

In 1980, Lennon talked about the song: "'Yellow Submarine' is Paul's baby. Donovan helped with the lyrics. I helped with the lyrics too. We virtually made the track come alive in the studio, but based on Paul's inspiration. Paul's idea. Paul's title... written for Ringo."

Donovan added the words, "Sky of blue and sea of green".

McCartney also said: "It's a happy place, that's all. You know, it was just... We were trying to write a children's song. That was the basic idea. And there's nothing more to be read into it than there is in the lyrics of any children's song."

Recording

Produced by George Martin and engineered by Geoff Emerick, "Yellow Submarine" was finished after five takes on 26 May, in Studio Two at Abbey Road Studios, with special effects being added on 1 June.
"Yellow Submarine" was mixed on 2 and 3 June, and finished on 22 June.

Interpretations

Although intended as a nonsense song for children, "Yellow Submarine" received various social and political interpretations at the time; music journalist Peter Doggett wrote that the "culturally empty" song "became a kind of Rorschach test for radical minds."
The song's chorus was reappropriated by schoolchildren, sports fans, and striking workers in their own chants.
At a Mobe protest in San Francisco, a yellow papier-mâché submarine made its way through the crowd, which Time magazine interpreted as a "symbol of the psychedelic set's desire for escape".
American poet Amiri Baraka criticized the song as an arrogant, solipsistic boast of White people's isolation from the real world.
A reviewer for the P.O. Frisco wrote in 1966, "the Yellow Submarine may suggest, in the context of the Beatles' anti-Vietnam War statement in Tokyo this year, that the society over which Old Glory floats is as isolated and morally irresponsible as a nuclear submarine."
Writing for Esquire, Robert Christgau felt that the Beatles "want their meanings to be absorbed on an instinctual level" and wrote of the interpretations, "I can't believe that the Beatles indulge in the simplistic kind of symbolism that turns a yellow submarine into a Nembutal or a banana—it is just a yellow submarine, damn it, an obvious elaboration of John [Lennon]'s submarine fixation, first revealed in A Hard Day's Night."

Tribute

A 51 feet (16 m) long yellow submarine metal sculpture was built by apprentices from the Cammell Laird shipyard, and was used as part of Liverpool's International Garden Festival in 1984.
In 2005 it was placed outside Liverpool's John Lennon Airport, where it remains.
