  I’m 66 years old.  Lived for the Beatles. I can’t stop watching the music video of Now & Then & can’t stop getting emotional.  When the Beatles bow at the end - I lose it.  What they have done with this on multiple levels is nothing short of incredible!

  When ANY "Singles" are thought to be "Misses" by reaching only #2 and #4 on the "Singles Chart" it shows You how SAD Critics and Fans can be...

  Now and Then really got me, it's classic Beatles with a Modern twist

  To add, it makes me think of what has been said to be John’s last words to Paul: “Think about me every now & then, my old friend.”

  It turns out it’s a truly beautiful song. It’s been an earworm in my head all day, tears flowing down my cheeks. John’s voice is so poignant to hear. Brilliant

  Real Love and free as a bird were both beautiful songs they sure warmed our hearts when released! Great job Andrew!

  I think "Real Love" and "Free as a Bird" are as good as good Beatles songs.  Beautiful!!

  You have to laugh at an industry where having the 2nd highest selling album or single is seen as a disaster. Free As A Bird and Real Love were huge hits that were in the charts for ages, at least in Australia. Even if they never actually got to number 1, they still sold a lot of copies and were up against some stiff competition. Free As A Bird did actually make it to number 1 in some countries I believe. But it&apos;s like when people look at The Monkee&apos;s Headquarters album being a flop because it only got to number 2...behind Sgt. Pepper.
