The Unbelievable Comeback of The Beatles
In a remarkable event that stunned music enthusiasts worldwide, The Beatles released a new song titled “Now and Then” in November 2023. This release, occurring 43 years after John Lennon’s death and over two decades following George Harrison’s passing, was a groundbreaking moment in music history.
The Genesis of “Now and Then”
Originally penned by John Lennon in the 1970s, “Now and Then” was further developed by the band in 1995. Back then, technological limitations hindered the song’s completion to the band’s satisfaction. However, with the advent of AI technology, pioneered by Peter Jackson, Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Ringo Starr resurrected Lennon’s voice from the demo, culminating in a track featuring all four iconic members.
A Tribute to The Beatles’ Legacy
Accompanying the farewell song is a music video directed by Jackson and a 12-minute documentary by Oliver Murray. This film offers a unique glimpse into the band’s journey, enriched with commentary from McCartney, Starr, Harrison, Sean Ono Lennon, and Jackson.
