Miley Cyrus has engaged in significant self-reflection during this year. In the past few months, she has established new boundaries for her personal life, revised her perspective on the criticism she received in her early twenties, and prioritized her own comfort over returning to a demanding touring schedule. On her TikTok series "Used to Be Young," the singer revealed the day she decided to end her 10-year relationship with Liam Hemsworth as a turning point that has since shaped her need to place herself first. Cyrus begins, "I have to slow down because this is very serious." "Glastonbury was in June [2019], which was when the decision was made that me and Liam's commitment to being married came from a place of trauma and trying to rebuild as quickly as we could." The couple got marri...

Speaking to Conan O’Brien at Tribeca Festival, Paul McCartney reflected on his time with The Beatles while discussing his new photo book, 1964: Eyes of the Storm. During the conversation, he noted that his late bandmate John Lennon had “a really tragic life”. As McCartney joined the bill for an hour-long slot for Tribeca’s Storytellers series, host O’Brien displayed some photos featured in the Beatle’s new book. “It’s so lovely for me to see these memories and just remind me of where we were, what we did in those days,” McCartney said while discussing the memories the images evoked. 1964: Eyes of the Storm boasts a collection of 275 photos, many of which haven’t been made public until now, taken between 1963 and ‘64 during the band’s meteoric rise to global stardom. McCartney had, f...

Paul McCartney was always an unlikely bass hero. The left-handed musician occupied many roles in his music career spanning over 60 years, including composer, arranger, remixer, and producer. As a member of The Beatles, McCartney has been hailed as one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time, responsible for iconic tracks like ‘Hey Jude’, ‘All My Loving’, and ‘Get Back’. But being a bass player never seemed to be at the forefront of McCartney’s mind. In fact, by his own admission, he wasn’t terribly keen on playing the instrument in the first place. “We couldn’t have three guitars and no bass. Nobody wanted to be the bass player in those days because it was always the fat guy playing bass,” McCartney explained in his book The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present. “There seemed to be s...

Following Paul McCartney’s revelation about The Beatles‘ upcoming final song being enhanced by artificial intelligence, Sean Ono Lennon has explained how they used the technology. During an appearance on The Today Show on BBC Radio 4, McCartney was asked about AI and explained how they’ve been able to use this technology finish a composition by The Beatles. “We were able to use that kind of thing when Peter Jackson did the film Get Back, it was us making the Let It Be album. He was able to extricate John’s voice from a ropey little bit of cassette and a piano,” he said. “He could separate them with AI. They tell the machine, ‘That’s a voice, this is the guitar, lose the guitar.’ And he did that, so it has great uses. So when we came to make what will be the last Beatles record it was...

Towards the end of the 1960s, George Harrison was getting increasingly fed up with the rest of The Beatles. Despite becoming one of the greatest songwriters of his generation, Harrison was often put on the side compared to his bandmates, with John Lennon and Paul McCartney being more content to work on their collaborative songs than give their guitarist the time of day. All the while, Harrison was stockpiling for what would become his first breakthrough as a solo artist, All Things Must Pass. Across the album, Harrison sounds like he’s finally free from The Beatles’ dream, finally making songs with little regard for whether it would appease his bandmates. Though most songs demonstrated a certain weariness about the group, ‘Apple Scruffs’ became a loving ode to the people that loved the ...
