Research claims song lyrics could be having 'detrimental' impact on health of elderly

References to "losing hair" and "wasting away" in The Beatles' classic When I'm Sixty-four could be having a "detrimental" effect on the health of the elderly, researchers have said.

The song lyrics "when I get older, losing my hair, many years from now, will you still be sending me a valentine, birthday greeting, bottle of wine", associate old age with being "unlovable", according to the new study.
