The Beatles are now also on YouTube Shorts

For a long time, surviving Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr refused to entrust their songs to streaming services. However, concerns have subsided for some time. Now you can hear and, above all, see a large selection of Fab Four songs on YouTube Shorts.

A total of 75 songs from the band’s recently reissued greatest hits collections “Red” and “Blue” are available on the video platform.

The aim is to “introduce a new generation of fans to the incredible story of one of the most important bands in modern music and to give people a whole new way to creatively engage with their catalog,” says a press release.

You can’t get enough of the Beatles

You can see all sorts of clips and picture collages for the Beatles songs, which when arranged one after the other reinforce how important the musicians’ artistic, visual vision was for the creation of myths around John, Paul, Ringo and George.

Also available on YouTube is of course the current single “Now And Then”, the (presumably) last song on which all four Beatles members can be heard. As is now well known, the basis for the piece comes from a demo by John Lennon, which was transformed into a Beatles track using artificial intelligence.

Since “Now And Then” also stormed to number one in the singles charts in Great Britain, the Beatles now hold a new record here too – the surprisingly long period of time between two different pole positions (the most recent one achieved by “The Ballad Of John And Yoko”) year 1969).
