- The Beatles' song 'Now and Then' marks their first Grammy nominations since 1997, vying for Record of the Year and Best Rock Performance.
- The track, completed in 2023, uses AI technology to separate John Lennon's vocals from a 1970s demo, with new contributions from Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr.
- The song's nomination has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some questioning the use of AI and the absence of John Lennon and George Harrison from the official nomination.
- Despite their legendary status, The Beatles have never won the Record of the Year award, making this nomination particularly noteworthy.
- The 2025 Grammy Awards will feature 'Now and Then' competing against contemporary artists like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and Billie Eilish.
