1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 2: Well, as we know, just the last week or so,

3
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 2: we were blessed with a new Beatles song.

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: Now and then, as Liam Gallagher so elegantly said, when

5
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: asked what he thought of the new song, he said,

6
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: the Beatles could crap in my handbag and I'd like it.

7
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 2: I think this is better than a crap in the handbag.

8
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 3: I think so too. I think it's what the Beatles

9
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 3: is is like a classical car, you know, it's the Beatles.

10
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 2: I see some people have been curmudgeonally saying I don't

11
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 2: like this, and that fair enough, but how lucky are

12
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: we to have this? And this is what technology brought us.

13
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 2: So this was a song In case you didn't know

14
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 2: where John Lennon had been tooling around at home writing

15
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: this song. Yoko found the tape, gave it to Paul.

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: They were able to use technology AI not to manipulate

17
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: the voices in any way, but to tripp John's voice

18
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 2: from the backing.

19
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 3: The late George Harrison did want to be a part

20
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 3: of it in the two thousands before he died because

21
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,040
Speaker 3: he thought the quality, the voice quality wasn't good enough,

22
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 3: and they put it on a back burner then George.

23
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:18,639
Speaker 2: Died and the technology improve technology, so they've added George's guitar,

24
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 2: they've added Paul's guitar and vocals. They've added Ringo's new drums,

25
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 2: so it became a Beatles song, which is quite amazing. Amazing,

26
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 2: and George Martin their longtime producer. It's his son Giles

27
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: who has produced it. Just incredible. And some of the
