So apparently I'm in a HN minority (given the current comments) given that I absolutely love this single and in fact it almost immediately made me cry hearing John's voice and those lyrics. The song made me think about the passing of time, my own aging, and the people I've lost along the way.

I think it's a beautiful song and I think watching the "Making Of" video made the song more impactful for me, making me think of those four close friends and now with only two of them left... "Now and Then"

This song has a more…”distant” quality to the sound. It doesn’t seem (to me) like the other songs from before. The lyrics seem a bit too short in comparison too. But it’s haunting enough for me to listen to it several more times.

I was recently listening to a few of those melancholic or nostalgic songs because they were different yet similar to their original styles — The Fool on the Hill, Nowhere Man, Eleanor Rigby, Norwegian Wood, Girl, Michelle, Strawberry Fields Forever, In My Life, and Yesterday.

Edit: I hope deepfakes and AI don’t create more Beatles (or Beatles-like) songs. It’s enough to have what we have and be contented with those.

It's not going to be my favourite song but the official video did bring a few tears to my eye. There are plenty of worse Beatles songs.

It's not very good imo. If it weren't the Beatles, it wouldn't be heard.
