Hans Hot 100 Beatles Songs: #37: ‘Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds’- a John Lennon song from Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band- every song except ‘Lovely Rita’- made the Hot 100. There were no singles from Sgt. Pepper- but I think ‘Lucy’ could easily have been a chart topper had they released it as a single. It was a controversial song from the album- many reading it as an advertisement for L.S.D. – Lucy Sky Diamonds- John to his death denied this. He said he was inspired to write the song from a drawing his son Julian had made.
