During "Let It Be", George quit the band for a few days after having a fight with Paul over how to play a guitar riff. Then after playing in Toronto with the Plastic Ono Band, John wanted to quit the band (again) and put the whole band on hiatus. Paul went off to record the "McCartney" album which was going to be released in competition with "Let It Be" and then he came out to the press that The Beatles had officially broken up. At the end of 1970, the band legally filed for dissolution.

Fat, slick, perfection. Heavenly. If it were a rare bottle of scotch, it would run you ten grand.

There’s something about George’s face at 1:50 that brings me to tears every time. Then of course there’s also every other second of the video that does that too. ❤️

Even though George felt he didn't have a lot of leeway for his lead guitar fills, I still think it really encapsulates that unique sound he had. In fact, all of their unique sounds combined. That's just the beauty of the Beatles.

I don't know what it is about this song, it has elements of joy and sadness, celebration and loss. It was never written as a Beatles song, it was finished long after John had passed away, and yet somehow there's a finality to this song, as if it were written to be the song played over the end credits to the Beatles story. The last encore to the world's greatest set list that encapsulates everything about the band and their legacy. If the Beatles were ever going to release one final song, this had to be it. The perfect way to end the story.

what about ringo

This song still invokes strong emotions. These four guys spent their formative years together, and through the ups and downs, the highs and lows, became legends in the process and are forever connected. It's just so poignant that, after a sadly bitter end to their time together, and then losing one in the process, they came together to make magic again. "Free As a Bird" is a great great track, and I know they prefer that one, but for myself "Real Love" is one of the greatest Beatles records ever made. To hear the (then) modern day surviving members get together one more time, rekindling that magic, mixed in with an old track Lennon never got to finish; it's just beautiful.

"No need to be alone" "No need to be afraid" 😭 Thank you John, Paul, George, and Ringo for always being there for me. I love you. This song brings me up unlike any other song can.

It’s a beautiful tribute from each one of them to the others; an eloquent and touching way to bring closure to their band’s breakup; and a show of true comradery and good character on the part of each man. It’s all wrapped up in this fine piece of art.

I'm 70 years old, so I have followed them since the beginning. I love them and think they are the best, they made the best songs musically and lyrically and were real friends. But I always thought that this was due to my growing up with their music. Today I see that I'm wrong. Many young people from various countries and languages also like their music a lot. So this is a true nature phenomenon. They are great, the best.

@@Cosmo-Kramer I mean, if you listen to the demo tapes, John singing with the piano or the guitar, the atmosphere is unique, a bittersweet song. It’s actually real love, what he’s trying to transfer. The recording of The Beatles is faster, full of joy, too positive in my opinion. The voice of John was accelerated and the tempo is not at all according to the original demo. I think the version that is closest to John’s concept is the one performed by Regina Spektor. Just a piano and a calm voice expressing exactly what real love is. A perfect version, in my opinion.

The more I hear this song..the more it grows on me!

In my mind, this is the perfect send off to the greatest band of all time. It feels like they raised John from the dead to record this. 3:20 always makes me shed a tear too. The media always made out like they hated each other. Get Back showed that it was never as hostile as the media claimed. It’s a real shame that they broke up, but deep down they still loved each other till the very end, evidenced by Paul giving George his house to stay at in his final days, Johns final words to Paul being “think of me now and again, old friend”, and Ringo and Paul’s continued friendship to this day. They will always be the Beatles. The Fab Four will live on forever. May John Lennon, George Harrison, George Martin, Brian Epstein, Stuart Sutcliffe, Mal Evans, Linda McCartney, Cynthia Lennon, Geoff Emmerick, Billy Preston, Maureen Starkey, and everyone that was involved with the Beatles along their journey that has passed Rest in Peace and may Paul, Ringo, Olivia Harrison, Jane Asher, Pattie Boyd, Klaus Voormann, Pete Best, Yoko Ono, and everyone else alive that was there for the journey live forever ❤️

Jeff Lynne has on several occasions talked about the difficulties of getting Real Love done properly in the mid 90s. Essentially having just a John Lennon tape recording to work with it, some creative thinking were required to make this into the superb track it eventually become. The technological devices were still somewhat limited in 1995 but Jeff Lynne rose to the occasion and proved yet again what a master Pop producer he is!
