Sir Paul McCartney has explained how The Beatles hit ‘Help’ was really a “cry for help” from John Lennon.

The Fab Four legend admits his late bandmate – who was shot dead outside the Dakota apartment building in New York City in December 1980 – was “always” looking for help throughout his life and the upbeat track had a deeper lyrical meaning for Lennon.
