    Fun fact that you probably new: One of the contestants, Melanie, was actually the inspiration for the song, She’s Leaving Home. Melanie states she remembered hearing that song for the first time, and thinking it could’ve been written about her, but dismissed it, only to find out later it was written about her. She thought it was very coincidental that the one and only Paul McCartney had also judged her in this contest, let alone wrote a song about her.

      I sometimes wonder about the many coincidences like this that we are not aware of. That you are unaware that as a child you stayed in the same hotel as the person you eventually marry etc.
      The Beatles Eleanor Rigby coincidence is the strangest. That there is a grave for a woman of that name in the graveyard of the Chruch where Paul first met John playing at the church fair.
      Yet he was unaware of the grave or name he would make famous.

      @@daBEAGLE1017 - No the newspaper didn't mention they had met and Paul was unaware when he wrote the song.
      As for saying "Faul" don't be ridiculous. It's the most absurd conspiracy ever.
      You cannot simply replace another human being without any would being able to prove it. You have to travel on a passport, not to mention the countless lawsuits Paul had with the rest of the band. There would be no reason to keep secret about it either.
      It's just stupid, seriously.

      I think the swinging 60s only happened for a few people in London and a few in California.
      And apart from the music scene, I don't think there was much to admire about that time.
      The 90s was my era and it is so much better now.
      We had a few records or CDs, maybe a video player and a few videos. There were four TV channels and they ended at midnight. If you wanted to learn something you had to go to the library and get a book.
      Now you can look up anything and learn about anywhere in the world, learn a language, take virtual tours of any country or city.
      The access to information, knowledge and ability to learn anything or listen to or watch anything every created is mind-blowing.
      We had none of that. There were movies and albums I'd heard about but there was no way of ever hearing or seeing them. Art I could never see. We were limited by the very small amount of access we had to the world.
      Now, anything is possible and you are only limited by yourself.

    Although winning, Melanie was disappointed with the signed album, other competitions on the show had offered a dinner date with a pop star, so she thought she'd be taken out by one of The Beatles. Paul's firm handshake almost broke the false fingernails she was so pleased with too. She did however get offered a year as one of the show's background dancers, so she saw many more famous performers.

    I read Melanie's story and it resembled a lot of what happened to me around the same age. Good providing, but strict parents, a father who worked often 7 days a week, who did show some understanding and a mother who basically showed no love or understanding at all. I too got married as soon as the law allowed, as the marrying age, without permission, had just been dropped to 18. When you marry for the wrong reasons, as Melanie also did, it was bound to fail, which it did some 8 years later in my case. If there is no or little love in a home, girls will look for it elsewhere.
