The Beatles' hit singles "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love" are now available together on 7" vinyl, and we've got it on Complex.
Released on the group's 2025 Anthology 4 compilation album, these tracks represent something extraordinary in Beatles history: the first new music from John, Paul, George, and Ringo in more than two decades. Both songs began as demos John Lennon recorded in the 1970s, after he'd stepped away from the music industry to raise his son Sean. Yoko Ono kept these recordings for years before handing them over to the surviving Beatles.
The result was two songs that felt both nostalgic and genuinely new, bridging the gap between the band's 1960s legacy and the mid-'90s moment when Britpop was bringing Beatles-inspired sounds back to the mainstream.
