Great article. I have a different take than most on this tune. It’s not great for certain. However, I’d like to think this is a bit of a goodbye/farewell for Yoko. An overly naive way of justifying its existence but she’s 90ish and likely not going to be around much longer. In my mind it’s cool that she’ll know this is it.
Thanks for checking out Mo's guest post. I personally haven't seen anybody else bring up the Yoko angle—which, if true, is kind of sweet. Or even if it's not true, it's an interesting read on the situation. Thanks for the thought-provoking comment.
The first time I heard Now and Again it made me sad and I wanted to puke at the same time. Now I cant get the inane melody out of my head. Its too bad that Paul and Yoko and the software programmers didn't collaborate with Timmy Sean. He made the song sound kinda '65 fun.
Oh wow! Those are some intense initial reactions. I think the "now I can't get the inane melody out of my head" is some of that "Beatle magic" Mo refers to in his guest post. Timmy Sean is a talented dude, for sure. Thanks for checking it out!
I absolutely agree with your entire article. No need for me to comment, just a thanks for writing what I (and many others) feel. Cheers.
Thanks for checking it out, and for the kind words. I love Mo’s writing.
