Listen to the last new Beatles' song, 'Now and Then'

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 14:16:39 GMT

The final Beatles recording is here.Titled “Now and Then,” the almost impossible-to-believe track is four minutes and eight seconds of the first and only original Beatles recording of the 21st century. There's a countdown, then acoustic guitar strumming and piano bleed into the unmistakable vocal tone of John Lennon in the song's introduction: “I know it’s true / It’s all because of you / And if I make it through / It’s all because of you.” More than four decades since Lennon's murder and two since George Harrison's death, the very last Beatles song has been released as a double A-side single with “Love Me Do,” the band's 1962 debut single.“Now and Then” comes from the same batch of unreleased demos written by Lennon in the 1970s, which were given to his former bandmates by Yoko Ono. They used the tape to construct the songs “Free As a Bird” and “Real Love,” released in the mid-1990s. But there were technical limitations to finishing “Now and Then.”FILE - The Beatles, from left, Joh...

OAKLAND — A wobbly office market in downtown Oakland has prompted a veteran developer to ditch plans for a proposed office tower and instead sell the project site to an East Bay nonprofit.The 11-story downtown Oakland office tower was being planned for a site at 2406 Webster Street, a prime location near Lake Merritt and on the edges of the city’s bustling and trendy Uptown district.The highrise would have totaled roughly 157,000 square feet, according to documents on file with Oakland city planners.
