Union 5-3992 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Not to be outdone by the Rolling Stones releasing an album 59 years after their debut, the Beatles released a song 61 years after their debut single: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on par with the Free as a Bird/Real Love collaborations they did in the 90s. This one is a little overproduced though as Lennon's original demo was a bit ore haunting.

Rick N. Backer Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 It will be the most streamed song of the year. And then 2 greatest hits packages that are 50 years old that feature songs that are between 60 and 53 years old will be the most streamed/downloaded albums of the year. But sure, tell me how there are more influential bands in history. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invisible airwave Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I remember when Beatles (anthology) and Stones (live album) released new music and it was the same year as this movie. It all comes full circle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyta Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 (edited) It is haunting and lovely, just like Free as Bird was. Makes me sad and happy at the same time. Still wish we hadn't lost John so soon, all the music that was taken from us, we'll never know. I am sure I shall listen again, John was my favorite but it did sound good to hear them all together one last time.

Lurkst Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 I'm impressed by the technological effort to put it together more than by the song. I think it will be a poignant album closer on the new version of the Blue album though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, heard it in the car a couple of times today and it's very well produced. While lacking a bit in FABness, it's certainly emotive. If in the 1960s you were asked to predict what the 80 something Beatles would sound like, this might be the answer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But sure, they just happened to come along at the right time. Nothing to do with their individual and collective talents. They not only all existed at the same time, but they lived in close proximity to one another, met and formed a band. Let the odds of that sink in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
