The One Moment From Peter Jackson’s Beatles Doco Fans Won’t Stop Talking About

Peter Jackson's Beatles doco Get Back is score rave reviews from critics and fans alike and while social media is rife with memes from throughout the three-part epic, one specific moment of the eight-hour endeavour has stolen the show.

The clip in question features Paul McCartney writing 1969 single Get Back:

The documentary also captures the rapid creation of The Long And Winding Road from McCartney.

And needless to say, the internet is losing its mind:

This felt unbelievable to be “in the room” as the Beatles catch a song that’s floating through the air and make it make sense together. It’s amazing to see Paul’s strong will and natural ability, and the rest of the bands selfless approach to creation! https://t.co/tHR5FmWB7q

John Lennon, a libra, walking in late while Paul McCartney, a Gemini, writes “Get Back” - that’s history.

There is nothing I would rather watch than the Beatles trying to figure out a song. It feels holy.

Watching Paul McCartney give birth to Get Back is possibly one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen in my life #getback

Well, Get Back absolutely lives up to the hype. What an incredible document.

Watching Paul McCartney literally will Get Back into being from the aether is the closest thing to actual magic I’ve ever witnessed. Genius is a grossly overused word, but not here.

The part in GET BACK when Paul McCartney strums his bass aimlessly and then spontaneously writes the verse and chorus of the song “Get Back” is an instant classic rock doc scene.

Paul McCartney generally started with the music when writing songs, filling in the lyrics to fit the tune. Seeing that process unfold in real-time in #GetBack is quite something, watching him try out different phrases, reaching for the words, while playing the chords. Priceless

Paul McCartney creating Get Back from scratch right in front of our eyes is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life #TheBeatlesGetBack

Songwriting is a form of alchemy. This clip of Paul McCartney coming up with 'Get Back' within 5 minutes in front of a very hungover George and Ringo is just incredible. pic.twitter.com/wRc8eRdolo

The way Paul McCartney just conjured up 'Get Back' out of thin air there was surreal, one of my most favourite songs of all time since i was a kid. Brilliant 👏 #GetBack #BeatlesGetBack#Beatles pic.twitter.com/V8saEshKcq
