With the Beatles releasing their last song ever called “Now and Then” it has made most, if not all, Beatles fans think about the impact and importance that the Beatles have on the music industry and the world.
The song has been gaining the attention of young fans and older fans. The music video already has 22 million views on YouTube after only four days.
The track is a tribute to bring all four of the Beatles back together. With John Lennon and George Harrison both passing away, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr came together to make a track with all four of them on it for the last time.
Throughout the years, the Beatles have gained a massive following. They are the most listened to and the number one selling band of all time.
Their influence around the world continued to grow throughout their career, with albums like “Abbey Road”, “Revolver”, “Rubber Soul” and “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”.
The band made their first song, “Love Me Do” in 1963, and didn’t look back from there. That song is what sparked “Beatlemania” in 1963.
“Beatlemania” was when the popularity of the group really started to grow. Everyone in England was obsessed with them and they were the biggest thing at the time because of the new type of pop music that they brought to the world.
They also sparked the British Invasion in 1964, which was when British pop and rock music started to become very popular in the United States. They opened the door for many other British artists, like David Bowie and The Rolling Stones.
The Beatles were considered the second “pop explosion” following Elvis Presley in the 1950’s.
They have influenced many bands and artists, including Bowie, Nirvana and the entire culture. They left their mark on the music industry and the entire world immensely.
They flipped the script on popular music at the time. British pop took over everywhere and it was hard to gain sales as an American artist at the time.
The band was only together for seven, almost eight years, and they changed music as drastically as they did. They are undeniably one of the greatest bands and the most influential of all time.
With the Beatles last song ever coming out, fans can enjoy music from “Now and Then”.
