now and then - kind of reeling over the aching sense of time and space incorporated in the song. the sound of john's voice stopped in time blended to the soft background timbre of paul's voice that now holds so much age in it. talking to each other across impossible distances. digital ghosts and haunted emotions.
I've never seen anyone do it so here's a rockstar version of the 6 fanarts challenge :)
David always looks extra cartoony and george is just next to him like šæ
And now and then
If we must start again
Well, we will know for sure
That I will love you
You sure are, Johnny. You sure are.

Reminding myself of the existence of this ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE that came out around this time last year for absolutely no reason whatsoever š it just fills me with so much love and joy š„°
Robbed of the opportunity to participate in a true final collaboration with his greatest muse, McCartney instead elevates this suggestion of a song into a realized record, one where its elegant, softly psychedelic flow lets Lennonās longing linger in the subconscious. That regret is articulated clearly in a chorus of āNow and then, I miss you / Now and then, I want you to be there for me / Always to return to me,ā words that sharpen Johnās original intention with its second newly written clause. Itās a passage where Lennonās yearning for McCartney intertwines with Paulās mourning for John, a shared grieving for the partnership that defined both their lives. In that sense, āNow and Thenā does provide something of a fitting conclusion to the Beatlesā recorded career ā not so much a summation but as a coda that conveys a sense of what the band both achieved and lost.
Excuse me while I go cry forever at this paragraph
the beatles . the chaos

This one is inspired by young Paul McCartney in the early-Beatles period. He was very mocking and spry but sometimesĀ languid and very artistic. So bohemian wow.
