"All You Need Is Love" is a song written by John Lennon[3] and credited to Lennon–McCartney. It was first performed by the Beatles on Our World, the first live global television link. Watched by 400 million in 26 countries, the programme was broadcast via satellite on 25 June 1967.[4] The BBC had commissioned the Beatles to write a song for the United Kingdom's contribution.

All You Need Is Love is one of most known and most symbolic songs of the career(quarry) of Beatles, and becomes durably the anthem of the Flower power. She will be associated also always with John Lennon, her author, who has never stopped up to his death to promote its message under all the possible forms.

She pursues her career(quarry) for more than forty years, having been interpreted in particular simultaneously in 156 countries, on December 7th, 2009, within the framework of a campaign(countryside) against the AIDS in Africa.

The lyrics talk most of the time about love :

We can also hear choruses which say "love" or "love is all you need" during the song.
