I’ve always loved this song, even before I really understood who the Beatles were. In the height of the pandemic, while we tried to maintain a sense of normal, this song became one of our regular nightly sing-along songs, with the kids belting out the words they knew.
 
This happy go lucky song, a celebration of the ideals of community and utopia, felt vibrant and obviously, yellow. While I tried to not fall into anything too literal with this collection, it would have been a mistake to paint Yellow Submarine without a focus on the colour; one that pairs so beautifully with greens and blues and pinks. A true community of colour, diversity, and hope.
