About This Track
The piano playing on this song was inspired by 1950s rock/blues pianist, Fats Domino. McCartney recalled in 1994, “‘Lady Madonna’ was me sitting down at the piano trying to write a bluesy boogie-woogie thing … It reminded me of Fats Domino for some reason, so I started singing a Fats Domino impression. It took my voice to a very odd place.” Domino himself would cover the song later in 1968, and it would become his most recent U.S. Hot 100 hit (peaking at exactly #100).
The song and in particular the introduction are similar to Humphrey Lyttelton’s “Bad Penny Blues” from 1956.[3] John Lennon helped write the lyrics. The line “see how they run” was included after his suggestion (and was a theme that had been used in the previous year’s “I Am the Walrus”).
