October 1960. London street corner, 4:47 PM. John Lennon and Paul McCartney sat broke and desperate, busking with a broken guitar for 3 shillings, ready to quit and go home. Johnny Cash and his 7-year-old daughter Rosanne walked by. She said "Daddy, they sound sad, can we help them?" Johnny knelt down, gave them 5 pounds, sat on the pavement, and told them something that changed everything: "The world doesn't give permission — you TAKE it. Stop waiting. Stop asking. You're musicians because YOU say so. Talent doesn't beg, it DEMANDS." The next day they walked into the Cavern Club and demanded to play. Within 3 months, lines formed outside. By 1963, they were the biggest band in the world. What nobody knew until Rosanne's memoir: Johnny had been searching for them deliberately since the night before. In 1970 when Beatles broke up, Johnny sent each of them personal letters: "You took the permission. Never give it back. Stay human." John kept his in his wallet until he died.

Disclaimer: This story reflects The Beatles' documented compassion and their commitment to helping people in need. While specific dialogue and details may be dramatized for storytelling purposes, the core events are based on their well-known character and actions throughout their careers.
