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).

2019-01: A utopia de John Lennon seria um pesadelo
Imagine foi tocado na passagem de ano cumprindo a tradição mais uma vez. Como seria um mundo como a canção? Um pesadelo de acordo com este artigo do NYT:
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/lennon-s-utopia-is-no-dream-it-s-a-nightmare-hddst53sd
Citando:
"John Lennon’s utopia is no dream, it’s a nightmare
Trying to live by the platitudes of Imagine would destroy all our bonds of nation and culture"
(...)
" song is chosen for this sacred annual spot because it is regarded by many as a hymn to a better world. “Imagine there’s no countries,” sang Lennon, “It isn’t hard to do/ Nothing to kill or die for/ And no religion too/ Imagine all the people living life in peace/ You may say I’m a dreamer/ But I’m not the only one/ I hope some day you’ll join us/ And the world will be as one.”"
