![THE REAL REASON BEATLES BROKE UP!](https://cdn.magzter.com/1368738884/1715168306/articles/9VnV_4b7b1715334802188/THE-REAL-REASON-BEATLES-BROKE-UP.jpg)
THE Rolling Stones have played together for seven decades, so why did the Beatles — who began about the same time — split up after just seven years, seven months and 24 days?
Now, in a warts-baring book, All You Need Is Love: The Beatles in Their Own Words, former band aide Peter Brown and writer Steven Gaines reveal too-fast fame and bitter bickering destroyed the beloved rock band, ending their spectacular hit-making run on April 10, 1970.
Bandmate George Harrison, who died at 58 in 2001, later admitted their success “became too much to live with. We kept realizing we were getting bigger and bigger until we all realized we couldn’t go anywhere. You couldn’t pick up a paper or turn on a radio or TV without seeing yourself.”
The bandmates later bitterly complained about their former leader John Lennon, who had become henpecked by strong-willed wife Yoko Ono.
Harrison trashed Lennon, calling him a “piece of s**t. He’s so negative about everything. He’s become so nasty.”
Paul McCartney, who’d been boyhood pals with Lennon and co-wrote hits like I Want to Hold Your Hand, Eleanor Rigby and A Day in the Life, resented the bond Lennon had forged with Yoko, the book claims.
