Penny Lane was a street in Liverpool which had shops and businesses which Paul McCartney thought it might be a good idea to write a song about. The shopping area is real, but the businesses and people referred to are mostly fictitious. "Penny Lane" b/w "Strawberry Fields Forever" by The Beatles was released in February, 1967.

∙ 14y agoIt was a street, a commercial block, so to speak in Liverpool- like a Bargain alley, this explains the commercial tone of the song- there are three characters of widely varying occupations, a Barber, a Banker, a Fireman, and somewhat oddly at a traffic circle- a nurse, selling poppies ( my guess for a Veterans org). there is no interaction between any of the characters, rather Kafkaesque.
