Before we hop onto anything The Beatles, I think the most recent Beatles tattoo that made headlines was by Drake. Inspired by The Beatles’ Abbey Road album cover, Drake, fr some fans, crossed over the line more than when he whacked about how he’s “got more slaps than The Beatles”.
The picture above reveals four figures that seem like John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, in an addition to the fifth figure marching ahead of the Beatles, which rises to be Drake himself.
So in this list, besides this very controversial tattoo by Drake, we have added some more amazing the Beatles tattoo for all the super fans who took to Twitter to snap back. And of course for those who kept it to themselves.

I remember standing in the parlor, with my guitar, looking out through the lace curtains of the window, and writing that one.”

Misinterpreted throughout their time, the Beatles dropped incalculable Beatles tattoos beneath the contour of a Yellow Submarine.

Across the Universe Tattoo
While some of the Beatles’ best singles came straight out of McCartney’s slumber, Lennon arrived at ‘Across the Universe’ while he was attempting to drop asleep. Irritated with his spouse, Cynthia, he withdrew to the kitchen to pen down the verse’s opening line, which aimed his rage into something grandiose. Lennon had an ability to string terms together, even if they executed any reason (“I Am the Walrus,” “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds,” “Come Together,” etc.). But in ‘Across the Universe,’ his poem outlines a more comprehensive image of enchantment — as if he’s contemplating the world unwind sluggishly.

Beatles Tattoo

The Free Tattoo
The U.S. civil rights movement motivated McCartney to compose this song, which was adjusted on the side two of ‘The White Album.’ He penned ‘Blackbird’ at his Scottish estate to reveal his love and support for the black Americans grappling for identity in the United States, especially ladies (“bird” is a British lingo for “woman”).

A different lyric from the Beatles’ number “Because”, it was carefully draped across the wearer’s wrist. She affixed a little, rosy heart that is apparently linked to love. Not the most authentic depiction of all, still presumably one that implies a lot. In order to confer gratitude, you can opt for figurative designs.
-
Beautiful Beatles Tattoo
The optical vogue advertised in the Yellow Submarine was regarded as innovative. The movie was enjoyed for its entertainment quotient and, of course, music. Considering that the astounding music is consolidated with attractive visuals, it’s nearly improbable not to display it in tattoos as well. The way is a little caricaturish as the colors are particularly lucid.
-
Autographed Tattoo
If you haven’t met the band but are still huge fans, you would have probably dreamt of their autographs too.

This full arm tattoo is probably the most innovative and well made on this list.
-
Let It Be Tattoo
This is not just a simple tattoo but has a simple message behind it too, which is, “let it be”. Probably it means that one must go with the flow and not overthink everything. The inspiration behind this song was a dream about Paul McCartney’s late mother which he had. He said in an interview, “I think I was getting, like, a little bit over the top with [the party fashion] – getting pretty tired and pretty wasted. And I went to bed one night and had a kind of restless night. But I had a dream where my mother, who had been dead at that point for about 10 years, came to me in the dream and it was as if she could see that I was troubled. And she sort of said to me, she said, ‘Let it be.’ And I remember quite clearly her saying, ‘Let it be,’ and ‘It’s going to be OK. Don’t worry.’ You know, ‘Let it be.’ I woke up and I remembered the dream, and I thought, ‘Well, that’s a great idea.’ And I then sat down and wrote the song using the feeling from that dream and of my mum coming to me in the dream.”
