The nominations for Now And Then mark the first time since the late 1990s that The Beatles have received Grammy nominations

Nearly 50 years after their split, The Beatles have been nominated for two Grammys, thanks to the power of artificial intelligence (AI). The group’s last song, Now And Then, which was restored last year, has been nominated for the Record of the Year category. It is competing against tracks such as Texas Hold ‘Em by Beyonce, Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter, 360 by Charli XCX, Birds of a Father by Billie Eilish, Not Like Us by Kendrick Lamar, Good Luck, Babe! by Chappell Roan and Fortnight by Taylor Swift featuring Post Malone.

Additionally, the song has also earned a nomination for Best Rock Performance, where it is up against Beautiful People (Stay High) by The Black Keys, The American Dream Is Killing Me by Green Day, Gift Horse by IDLES, Dark Matter by Pearl Jam and Broken Man by St. Vincent.
