In 1960, the band made its debut in the music industry, quickly becoming a rock icon. The legendary line-up consisted of: John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. Although Lennon and Harrison have been dead for years, the last song will be released soon, which will be the culmination of the band’s career. How is this possible?
There’s a new song by The Beatles. Paul McCartney announced the premiere of the song
In an interview with the radio, Paul McCartney announced that work on the last song from the repertoire was completed. Although he did not reveal its title, both fans and the media began to assume that it was “Now and then”, which he composed in 1978. The song was one of several recorded two years later on a cassette entitled “For Paul”, shortly before the artist’s death.
Reportedly, in 1994, Yoko Ono’s widow gave a cassette of the recordings to McCartney. The musicians even started working in the studio creating the backing track and recording the missing verses, but in the end not everyone was satisfied with the quality of Lennon’s recording. Harrison had particular reservations, as he refused to continue working, and as a consequence, further production was suspended.
It didn’t have a very good title, it needed some rewrites, but it had a beautiful verse and John sang it. (…) George didn’t like it, and since the Beatles are a democracy, we didn’t do it
– McCartney told about the song in an interview with “Q Magazine”. Later, the artist repeatedly expressed his desire to finish the song so that he could share the final version with fans. Now it’s finally possible.
How did the last Beatles song come about? Artificial intelligence has played an important role
During the making of the documentary “The Beatles: Get Back” directed by Peter Jackson, the musicians got acquainted with the possibilities of artificial intelligence. It was then that the dialogue editor programmed modern technology in such a way that it was able to recognize and isolate the voices of individual members of the group. This opportunity was also used during the last concert tour. Jackson was able to extract John’s voice from an old tape. We had a voice and a piano recording, and he was able to separate it using artificial intelligence. As it turns out, artificial intelligence played a significant role in the creation of the last Beatles song, on which we will also hear Lennon. The artist’s voice was extracted from a cassette that was created over four decades ago. “We just finished it, it should be out this year,” Paul McCartney announced.
