- Pop[2]
- ska[3]
"Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" adalah sebuah lagu dari the Beatles dalam bagian White Album. Liriknya ditulis oleh Paul McCartney[4][5] dan dimasukkan ke Lennon–McCartney. Setelah perilisan album, Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da dikeluarkan sebagai single di berbagai negara, meskipun tidak di Inggris atau Amerika Serikat, dan menduduki puncak tangga lagu single di Australia, Jepang, Selandia Baru, Swiss, dan Jerman Barat. Saat dikeluarkan di Amerika Serikat pada tahun 1976, cuman dapat menempati nomor 49 di Billboard Hot 100.
McCartney menulis "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" dalam gaya Reggae dan ska dengan menggunakan frasa yang dipopulerkan oleh Jimmy Scott, musisi Nigeria yang berbasis di London. Sesi rekaman yang ditandai dengan ketidakharmonisan saat McCartney menguji rekan bandnya dan staf rekaman. Namun sangat tidak disukai oleh John Lennon, dan perdebatan sengit selama salah satu sesi menyebabkan Geoff Emerick berhenti dari pekerjaannya sebagai teknisi rekaman The Beatles.
Keputusan The Beatles untuk tidak merilis single tersebut di Inggris atau Amerika Serikat menyebabkan beberapa cover dari musisi lain. Salah satunya Marmalade yang menjadi band Skotlandia pertama yang memiliki hit nomor satu di Inggris ketika covernya menduduki puncak tangga lagu Record Retailer pada akhir 1968. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da diejek oleh beberapa komentator karena sifatnya yang ringan, dan muncul di beberapa daftar lagu terburuk yang pernah ada. Sejak 2009, McCartney rutin membawakannya dalam acara konser.
