Lennon-McCartney was the songwriting partnership between the English musicians John Lennon (1940-1980) and Paul McCartney (born 1942) of the Beatles. It is widely considered one of the greatest, best known, and most successful musical collaborations ever by records sold, with the Beatles selling more than 600 million records worldwide as of
2004. Between 5 October 1962 and 8 May 1970, the partnership published approximately 180 jointly credited songs, of which the vast majority were recorded by the Beatles, forming the bulk of their catalogue.
Lennon-McCartney, as well as other British Invasion songwriters, inspired changes to the music industry because they were bands that wrote and performed their own music. This trend threatened the professional songwriters that dominated the American music industry.
Ellie Greenwich, a Brill Building songwriter, said,
"When the Beatles and the entire British Invasion came in, we were all ready to say, 'Look, it's been nice, there's no more room for us... It's now the self-contained group-makes, certain type of material. What do we do?" In 1963, The Sunday Times called Lennon and McCartney the greatest composers since Ludwig van Beethoven.
