00:00 Now and Then (Extended Full Version Edit with added Bridge missing in original released video version) (video included).
06:45 Now and Then (1960s Style) - BONUS version.

For those interested! There is a Bonus track added to the end of the extended version already uploaded, but this time in a 1960s style.

This is the same extended edit with edited video to fit the extended audio but for those who watch right to the end I have added a 1960s style version of the same song with what it may have sounded like back in the 1960s if released in that time with video of the Beatles performing on stage.

The two versions are individually time stamped so that you can skip the first Extended Edit and go directly to the 1960s style version if you so choose to.

I hope that you enjoy it!

The Beatles have released what's been billed as their "final song".

Called Now and Then, it's been 45 years in the making - with the first bars written by John Lennon in 1978 and the song finally completed last year.

All four Beatles feature on the track, which will be the last credited to Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr.

For interest's sake, the voice on this song is not AI, it is John Lennon's voice. Technology was used to extract & separate his voice & instrument playing from his old demo tape and clean it up from the old 1970s technology that it was originally recorded on & bring it up to 2023 audio standards, so it blended properly with modern sound technology, so it didn't sound misplaced and therefore not fitting in properly. Look at it like a remaster of his part in the song to enhance John's part & to bring it to life. All of The Beatles are recorded adding their parts to make this song, including George Harrison's part in the 1990s. The final result is as if we have gone decades back pre 1970 to when The Beatles last played together as the fab 4. This becomes iconic because of that fact.

This is the full version of 'Now and Then', with the excluded verse added back into the song but also with the whole song extended as a bonus. The included new section added here was not included in the released video version but could be clearly heard on the Beatles documentary on Now and Then. (The missing part from the video release sounded rough on the documentary but it is thankfully now sounding much better & cleaned up here)

On top of that, this version is also an extended version of that full unreleased version & because of that fact it was harder to get the extended full audio version and standard video syncing up exactly with each other perfectly. It is close though! It will do!

This is an iconic video & a great catchy Beatles song which has so much emotional triggers & because of that it is something very special especially since half the duo have now departed us, so this song brings them back together again for the very first time since decades ago!

It gets even more emotional when you realise that the last time Paul saw John in the mid 70s, John's parting words were "remember me, now and then, old friend". Also, John had labelled the demo cassette of Now and Then "For Paul". No wonder this was a labour of love for Paul. Please enjoy!
