Hey Jude at The White House

in Music | June 3rd, 2010 Leave a Comment

Yesterday, President Obama awarded the Gershwin Prize For Popular Song to Sir Paul McCartney. (Watch it here). Then, the good part. McCartney took to the stage and performed the Beatles classic Michelle (the reference is obvious), Eleanor Rigby, and Hey Jude, during which he was joined by Jack White, Stevie Wonder, Dave Grohl and others. You can watch a small clip of that performance above. PBS will air the complete performance on July 28.
