Is it normal that a band that ended on 1970 still gets radio airplay and frequent references in the social media almost every day here in Europe? This is a very personal and somewhat infomal logbook of some of these references to The Beatles as a proof of their everlasting relevance and continuing influence over the years. As if they needed. Also includes highlights of promotions and some additional info on the band. Mainly in Portuguese (sorry guys).

2020-09: O livro do Beatles novo
The Beatles: Get Back will tell the story of the final Beatles album, Let It Be, drawn from over 120 hours of transcribed conversations from the band’s studio sessions. It will accompany Peter Jackson’s feature documentary of the same name, also set for release that month.
The book documents January 1969, with friction building in the band as they recorded music for an intended TV special – George Harrison walked out of the sessions at one point and John Lennon described them as “hell”. The music they made, though, would be among the most poignant in their catalogue, and the sessions built towards the group’s final live performance, on top of the Apple Corps building in London on 30 January 1969.
The songs they recorded were later mixed (including with controversial input from Phil Spector) and eventually released in May 1970 as Let It Be, instead of the original title Get Back. It followed the recording and release of Abbey Road in September 1969, and was released a month after Paul McCartney’s departure precipitated the band’s split."

2020-01: Filha de Michael Jackson e "avariações"?
Citando:
"Paris Jackson, the daughter of late and controversial ‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson took to social media via Instagram to reveal that she has a new ‘bf’ [boyfriend], that being – late the Beatles member, John Lennon. Jackson revealed this shocking and stunning revelation in the following post, that you can view below. I wonder what Yoko Ono would think! Paris would also post this other John Lennon picture with the following caption: “Love is the flower you’ve got to let grow.” That picture also can be seen below.
