This was written by Lennon in late 70s but was never completed so Paul and Ringo finished it. In the beginning of the video, you can see George, Paul and Ringo working on the song in the mid 90s but the technology at the time couldn't separate or make John's vocals more clear from the demo, so they had to wait until now to record it with the help of AI. It was pretty emotional hearing this the first time for me, me being a huge Beatles fan. There is also a trailer/documentary about the making/finishing the song. I would urge you to watch it, it's so good, peace.
Ricky, this video is making most men emotional. It's hard to watch this and not think about our own lives and people we don't have anymore. This video gets me every time. It's using technology to say goodbye.
This song reminds us of John’s hauntingly beautiful melodies and of what we lost in 1980. The slide guitar always makes me emotional. It’s a great bookend to the Beatles.
@@RobynHurley-zp9sh I remember it all too well. I had bought Double Fantasy in October of that year and was looking forward to a tour. I so identified with his wit, sense of humor and outlook on life. He sang about what it meant to be human. I feel like I was robbed not being able to grow old with him.
I know , recently here in the UK Sir Tom Jones had a number one album & he's 83 . He's really still got his voice . You should react to him , he's been a judge on the uk voice for the last 10 years and most episode the audience shout out for him to sing a song . On one occasion he dueted with jennifer hudson you should check it out . @@grandparentsreact
The first Beatles song I heard was on British TV when I was 8 in 1962, if I remember right it was love me do, it was a song played between two programs, when the UK only had two channels.
This song & video gives me such nostalgic vibes. I grew up with the Beatles music as a young girl. This also makes me a little sad since John & George are no longer with us (John was murdered in 1980 & George died of cancer in 2001). But I like the video showing them all together. I am sure Paul & Ringo loved doing this tribute & it must have brought back a lot of fond memories for them. The Beatles had a great sense of humor that is shown by some of the flashbacks & like seeing the costumes from Sgt. Pepper's album.
I've watched most of the first time reactions videos and noticed you post the same thing on every one of them. I can't tell if you are a bot or if you're just manually copying & pasting to all reaction videos..!?
@@vertigo0105 Oh, believe me, we are not a bot. There is certain information that we choose to share on each reaction video as we are aware that new viewers are coming in with each video we post. You will notice our lists of viewers and countries of the artist continues to grow as time goes on.
They were great n my youth too... But they're greater than a music band, they really changed the world as we knew it until then... And I'm from Oporto, Portugal...
Great song, nice reaction. Is that David Crosby sitting on the couch? I thought he passed earlier this year or was it last year. The Beatles, the most creative and I influential band in the history of recorded music and it ain't even close. FACT! Merry Christmas and Happy Year to you both. Peace ❤
Great nostalgic memories for me, I first saw the Beatles live at the Cavern club in 1962, we were docked at Liverpool and I was introduced to the Cavern by a Liverpudlian shipmate.
Great review guys! I was a junior in high school when they were on Sullivan show.. loved them ever since! This song/video gets better all the time.....😮
Thanks for watching. We love Tennessee. Many years ago we moved to southern California. We loved the weather, but it was like we were in a different country. We were so homesick. Only took is 3 months to get back home to Tennessee. (That was 41 years ago.)
John wrote it in the 70's. The rest tried to do it in the 90's for Anthology but the piano was too loud over John's vocals. AI was used to separate his voice from the piano so they could record it & used George's guitar from when they tried before. Being a fan since I was only 4 years old when they came over in 1964, I cried watching this for the 1st time. Their last song as a band.
The Now and then timeline: 1977 - John Lennon records the demo on his piano using a portable cassette recorder. 1994 - At John Lennon's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction as a solo artist, Yoko Ono gives Paul McCartney a package containing two cassette tapes, with 4 songs in total..."Free as a Bird", "Real Love", "Grow Old with Me" and "Now and Then". 1995 - Paul George and Ringo go into the studios to record "Free as a Bird" using the demo tape as a base, and adding their own instrumentations to it. It became a single and was included on Volume 1 of their "Anthology" collection. 1996 - The three remaining beatles (The Threatles) went into the studio again to record "Real Love", it became a single as well as being included on Volume 2 of the "Anthology" collection. Since the "Anthology" collection was going to be a three piece collection, they wanted to do a third song to be released on Volume 3. Since Yoko Ono" had already released "Grow Old with Me" on one of John's posthumous LPs, they decided to work with "Now and Then". They added their own instrumentation while playing back the cassette demo, but there was just too much background hum as well as an overpowering piano and times so they stopped working on it. 2021 - While directing the documentary "Get Back", Peter Jackson's team was able to create the technology to separate tracks from original recordings. 2022 - Using the technology that separated the tracks for "Get Back", they were able to isolate Lennon's vocals to a single track. Then they added George's guitars that he recorded back in 1996, Ringo added new drums and Paul added new bass. As for the string orchestra, which was conducted by Giles Martin, (Beatles producer, George Martin's son) they were told they were going to work on a new Paul McCartney single to keep it all secret. 2023 - Finally, when all the new instrumentation was completed, McCartney and Martin added portions of original vocal recordings of "Here, There and Everywhere", "Eleanor Rigby", and "Because" into the new song, which were used for background chorus vocals. And on November 2, 2023, "Now & Then" became the last Beatles song that would ever be released that features all four members of the band.
Old guys have been calling new music "not real music" for probably hundreds of years. But in current year, it could not be more true. This is so much more advanced, than ANYTHING you hear on the radio. Key changes, chord progressions, surprises, these are all thing that every song used to have. Now it's just a melody with a bland, repetitive vocal, passing for a whole song.
Back in the '60's my mom would sometimes say , when she saw the fashions of the day, ''I used wear a dress or coat like that, in the 30's everything gets re-introduced, and perhaps modified, including music.
@@MrDaiseymay No doubt. I have already predicted that this age of auto tune and AI, will result in a young generation pushing back against it, and doing everything analog and real. The pendulum never stops swinging, no matter how far out it goes.
This song is sheer genius. Such a perfect song to be their last song. This was definitely the last song that they had all worked on, but was unfinished. But it was worth the wait.
I lost my mother last year, she was 75 years old. So she was of you guys' age. I think she would have loved this song and I still think of her when I hear it.
Hello Tennessee, this is Michigan Calling...I can Tennessee you down there, I'm sitting on my roof lol...Caroline Buckman, one of the violin or viola players, received an unexpected call to contribute to the recording, unaware that it would be The Beatles' final song. Around May 1, 2022 they recorded the strings in Los Angeles CA area in a studio, with Paul there, but they were told it was a "Paul project." The secrecy surrounding the project aimed to prevent rumors from spreading. Ms. Buckman never found out the song was for the Beatles. Despite this, her mother expressed immense pride upon learning about her daughter's involvement in such a pivotal song. Tragically, Buckman succumbed to breast cancer at the age of 48 in March 2023, just 11 months after her participation in the recording. Buckman's mother, reflecting on the news received on November 1, expressed mixed emotions. "You're going to make me cry," she said. "She would have been delirious about it. It is sad, but I'm very proud."
il never understand the sheer genius of this band. 1963 was their first album, 1969 was their last. they released 2 new albums a year. its insane productivity, and each new one had more innovation than the last. insane talents!
@@grandparentsreact Love your channel, ive subscribed too. if you could react to my song on here i would love you forever but im sure sure your busy keep up the good work! Much love from Ireland xx :-)
The most mind-blowing fact is that, with all their hits and world fame, The Beatles split up when all members were still under 30 years old! Ringo was the oldest at 29 years old.
The fact that John started this song AFTER they broke up and George died before he finished this makes me think this is as not a bad song, but a cash in. It's a great song, but this was a solo John song 😊
My biggest wish in life was to meet a “Beatle”. Any Beatle. I never did. 😢😢. They’ve always been my musical idols. I have cried every time hers this song. The story behind it is so incredible but people still don’t understand their use of AI. John’s voice was not messed with at all, AI was only used to separate the Piano (and noice) from John’s Voice. The Cassette Tape John used was back in 1977, they had no multiple track, they had only One Track, you could do nothing without affecting everything else on the track. AI was used to extrapolate the noise and Piano sound and just leave John’s voice alone. We are actually hearing John’s real voice. Also, when John wrote this song, the Band had broken up for a few years already. Thy had talked about recording one last song, but never did because John was assassinated in NY in 1980. The cassette tape was stored by Yoko Ono and she didn’t see it again until the 1990s. In the Tape, John had written a note for Paul to listen to it and see what the Band thought. Yoko Ono found the tape and note and gave it to Paul. The Band started recording it in the 90’s but could not separate the Voice from the Piano sound until 2022 with the help of Peter Jackson. George Died of Brain Cancer in the 1990s, not long after the filming of the three of them working on this song. The song and tape were shelved until time could catch up with technology and separate the voice from the piano. This song is HISTORY. I still remember hearing The Beatles when I was a Young Teenager. 😢😢
Paul has labeled it as the LAST Beatles song or at least the only one that could possibly have all four in it. So I wouldn't look for it. Unless some other tape shows up that they had worked on but never publish there will be no more. There is more information on the making of it and considering your reaction I would suggest looking for those videos it makes it more impressive than you think.
Can i suggest you google the songs recorded by other artists that the Beatles wrote that will open up alot of possible records you were not aware of that should give you joy i am sure
Thank You can i suggest Mary Hopkins Those were the days written by Paul McCartney the young girl hadappeared on a TV talent show and went to number 1 in the UK from memory she had a lovely voice
Beginning has all four of them in funny stripped swimsuits...from a1963 home movie a doctor found and he never developed, it was released several years ago. Later they had made promo film in late 1967 for the song "Hello Goodbye." that's why the "Sergeant Peppers" unfirms with three corned hats etc. But they are also using outtakes of the film that were never used in the official video...John in white sport coat goofing off, and all of them moving drum equipment and an amplifier off the stage...that was published on computer [online] a few years ago as outtakes from Hello Goodbye. Many other things, photos, etc. But a the end the bow was from the movie A Hard Days Night [1964], but in the original movie there was no fade out, that was down by computer tricks.
Further thought you cannot go wrong with Queen Coldplay or ELO Dire Straits Sultans of Swing live at the Alchemy is probably the best live performance you will find please see my reply to yours below in relation to The Beatles and Mary Hopkins,
We added the Mary Hopkins song you requested to our list. We are both very familiar with Sultans of Swing, so probably can't do a true reaction to that one. Let us know if you want to request any particular songs from any of these other artists you lists. Thanks!

A crazy project, I thought. I wonder if it will work. I can only say: Yes!!!! The old magic was back after the very first notes. Hearing the voice of John Lennon shook me. The video is beautiful. It makes you cry. And then you realize that this really is the last Beatles song. Many thanks especially to Paul McCartney. Without his technical and musical genius, it wouldn't have been so wonderful. If you're interested, I've put two of my own clips of the song on my RUclips channel ("Pearls for the Jukebox"). ruclips.net/video/8rJRPeqgkAs/видео.html ruclips.net/video/jiOcUuZb0Bg/видео.html I'm sure you'll find one or two suggestions there.

The song and tape were shelved until time could catch up with technology and separate the voice from the piano. This song is HISTORY. I still remember hearing The Beatles when I was a Young Teenager. 😢😢
Thank you so much for sharing your memories and all of this great information.
Paul has labeled it as the LAST Beatles song or at least the only one that could possibly have all four in it. So I wouldn't look for it. Unless some other tape shows up that they had worked on but never publish there will be no more. There is more information on the making of it and considering your reaction I would suggest looking for those videos it makes it more impressive than you think.
Thank you so much for watching with us, and for the information.
Can i suggest you google the songs recorded by other artists that the Beatles wrote that will open up alot of possible records you were not aware of that should give you joy i am sure
Good suggestion. We also welcome suggestions from viewers like you for the next reaction. Thank you for watching.

Hi
Hello. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Beginning has all four of them in funny stripped swimsuits...from a1963 home movie a doctor found and he never developed, it was released several years ago. Later they had made promo film in late 1967 for the song "Hello Goodbye." that's why the "Sergeant Peppers" unfirms with three corned hats etc. But they are also using outtakes of the film that were never used in the official video...John in white sport coat goofing off, and all of them moving drum equipment and an amplifier off the stage...that was published on computer [online] a few years ago as outtakes from Hello Goodbye. Many other things, photos, etc. But a the end the bow was from the movie A Hard Days Night [1964], but in the original movie there was no fade out, that was down by computer tricks.
Thank you for watching and for sharing all this info with us.
Further thought you cannot go wrong with Queen Coldplay or ELO Dire Straits Sultans of Swing live at the Alchemy is probably the best live performance you will find please see my reply to yours below in relation to The Beatles and Mary Hopkins,
We added the Mary Hopkins song you requested to our list. We are both very familiar with Sultans of Swing, so probably can't do a true reaction to that one. Let us know if you want to request any particular songs from any of these other artists you lists. Thanks!
Queen Somebody to Love at Montreal Coldplay Sky Full of Stars ELO MrBlue Sky All Over the World flash mob Coldplay again Fix You the Dire Straits recording is a different kettle of fish to the standard record without seeing it you cannot really explain over 200 million from memory have seen it Best Wishes from the UK@@grandparentsreact
@@philipbillington2314 Thank you so much for all these suggestions
A crazy project, I thought. I wonder if it will work. I can only say: Yes!!!! The old magic was back after the very first notes. Hearing the voice of John Lennon shook me. The video is beautiful. It makes you cry. And then you realize that this really is the last Beatles song.
Many thanks especially to Paul McCartney. Without his technical and musical genius, it wouldn't have been so wonderful.
If you're interested, I've put two of my own clips of the song on my RUclips channel ("Pearls for the Jukebox").
