ARE YOU READY TO SING?

Today we are going to sing a very nice song. It is from a famous rock-and-roll band from Liverpool, England.

Since the 1960's, this British band has inspired a lot of musicians and music fans around the world, not only because of their melodies and rhythms, but also for their messages in them.

Guess who they are.

Here it is.
ENJOY!
