This is the text (if you need help).

The Beatles have released their last song, called "Now and Then". It was written by John Lennon in 1977. Engineers used AI to bring it to life. It sounds like the Beatles recorded it in a studio. The other side of the single is a new mix of "Love Me Do". "Now and Then" is on a new edition of the Beatles' greatest hits "blue" album.

Paul McCartney said recording the song was "emotional" and "an exciting thing". He said: "It's a genuine Beatles recording." He was excited to release a new song in 2023 that no one has heard. Beatles drummer Ringo Starr said the song was, "the closest we'll ever come to having [John Lennon] back".
