    Thanks guys. I’m 69 and live just up the road from Liverpool. I grew up with the Beatles. Christmas when I was 9 I got ‘With the Beatles’, a plastic Beatles wig and an acoustic guitar. On the day that Sgt Peppers came out I sat on my friends front doorstep and listened to it on his older brother’s record player. One of those with the red vinyl covers. I had all the cigarette cards and watched all the films as they were released. It was a fantastic times of musical innovation. Gets me every time I hear this.

    As a 15/16 year old in 1961/62, I was a regular in the Cavern Club at the lunchtime sessions watching John, Paul, George and Pete before Ringo joined and Ive loved them since before theyvwere famous.
    The boys had this aura around them......something very special.
    I was in The Cavern the day that Mr Brian Epstein came to see them and John made a fool of him all the time he was in the audience.
    We all knew they were going to be big, but we didn't realise they would be as big as they are.......and now 61 years after the 1st release of Love Me Do, they then release their last song......a very fitting epitaph to the memory of "four lads who shook the world"
    The world will still be talking about the Beatles in 60 years.
    I'm now aged 78 and still living walking distance from the Cavern and love them more today as I did when I was 15.
    Best wishes from Liverpool ❤

    This will absolutely be the LAST Beatle song ever. During their recording career, Paul said they never sat down to write and had a dry session. Everything they wrote, was either put on an album, or vetoed to the trash bin by Ringo, George, Paul or John. (They all had equal say, and If one person did not like a song, they wouldn't do it) There are no more tapes to scour to find anything else to work on. That one tape from 1978 that had REAL LOVE, FREE AS A BIRD, and NOW AND THEN on it, was the last bits and bobs that John had left lying around.

    Love your heartfelt reaction and it's wonderful that you can appreciate all the work that went into it and really how historic this is. And it's not just the latest Beatles song, it's almost certainly the last Beatles song. It was the last demo of John that they had access to and that moment at the end where it's from The Ed Sullivan Show and they bow and then fade out and then the Marquee behind them goes blank, and then after you paused it, the whole thing just goes to Black and holds for a while, and then that Apple logo comes up.
    I grew up with the Beatles and was in high school when John Lennon got assassinated and so you can imagine this hits me and a lot of other people really hard every time we watch it. And I love the song as well, and I really like Paul McCartney's slow-moving bass line on this. It's great and Ringo's drums just sounds so modern in a way but it still sounds just like the Beatles from back then.

    George Martin's son Giles Martin did the string arrangement in the style of how he thought his father might have done it. There's a brief shot of him sitting next to Paul McCartney in the booth, and moreover, there were some George Harrison guitar tracks to this that were aborted but Paul thought there were some really interesting ideas in them, and so he sent them to Giles Martin hoping that it would influence his string arrangement and apparently it did.

    2022 AI separates johns voice and cleans it up, Ringo lays drums again and Paul does the rest, piano guitars. He also gets Giles Martin to write an orchestration based on his fathers style. Giles also mixes and adds harmonies from a couple of old Beatles songs that fit well.

    Yeah, in the digital world you really can't hit 0 DB unless you're into bit crushing and noise and such but in the analog world you almost always over drove it just the slightest bit to give it that warmth.
    But what I find fascinating about this though is that the whole mix when it's just John's voice separated from his piano demo and his living room back in 77 that has been extracted from it comes in, the whole mix is pegging right around zero DB or a bit above if I remember, and then at the end of that verse, modern Paul McCartney joins him with the harmony and they show it again and now with both of their voices the whole mix is pegging right up around 3 db. Rings so true.
    After Yoko sent these demo tapes to them, they did the first two songs years ago for something in the 90s and during that session they really wanted to do this one, now and then, but his voice was just in with the piano on a simple cassette recording plus there was a television playing a kung fu movie in the background and other room noise. They had to give up on it after George Harrison recorded some rhythm tracks, Paul on base, and Ringo on drums, but then once Peter Jackson's team developed the software to do that working on the Beatles get back documentary, and it's also Peter Jackson that did this video, then it occurred to Paul to send him the tape and say can you remove John's voice from the background noise and they could!
    And so modern-day Paul and Ringo added some stuff to the 90s session, plus John's extracted vocal from the unfinished 1977 cassette scratch demo, and that's the mix.
    For the video, Peter Jackson used mostly never before seen footage from their 1967 work on Hello Goodbye.

    As a lifelong Beatles fan I witnessed beatlemania as a child and you are right, they always used new recording technologies. Or unusual instruments (e.g. mellotron) or just being playfully experimental (playing tracks backwards and recording the rest over it). So it makes sense they are doing it again 🙂

    I remember seeing them on Ed Sullivan when I was almost 4 at my grandma's house. My aunt had brought her 5 daughters over to see it because their tv was broke. The only thing I really remember about it was what granny said after their performance "I can't believe I missed "Branded" for this, those boys should have had their hair cut before coming on tv." That is the closest I got to ever seeing them live.

    There is a BIG difference between hip hop artists sampling music from others and what The Beatles did with this song. There is no sampling here... Everyone is playing their instruments and singing. The only thing that AI was used for was separating John's vocals from his piano in the original recording. Peter Jackson put everything together in the video btw.
    And yes this is by all definitions a new Beatles song released in 2023. See Paul MacCartney and Mick Jagger have this old feud about topping each other on the lists since way back. The Rolling Stones came out with a new album, so obviously The Beatles have to release at least a new song! lol!

It is REALLY them from that "HELLO GOODBYE" video as are the shots of young Paul and Ringo from 1967.

    The so-called "warmth" of analog is DISTORTION -- beginning with the recording of the tape crossing the tape head. Digital simply removes the distortion.
