Reeya Paulose traces her love for The Beatles back to one of the earliest influences in her life—her mom. Before Reeya turned 12, her mom passed away, but not before passing down a deep appreciation for the band and their music. “Eight Days a Week” reminds Reeya of the way her mom talked about The Beatles—not just the songs, but who they were and why they mattered.
It wasn’t about one moment, but about many little ones. Reeya shares how her mom’s enthusiasm helped shape her understanding of music as something more than sound—something cultural, emotional, and lasting. Even now, hearing the song brings back that bond and reminds her of the woman who introduced her to one of the greatest bands of all time.
