When Paul McCartney began singing “Now and Then,” the stadium didn’t erupt. It went silent. This was the song no one ever expected to hear live — the final Beatles recording, stitched together across decades. As John Lennon’s voice floated through the speakers and archival images flickered behind the stage, Paul didn’t perform it so much as carry it. Carefully. Almost reverently.

Sir Paul McCartney, of The Beatles fame, is finally coming back to UK stages this year. He’ll be hitting London’s O2 Arena and Manchester’s Co-op Live. Tickets are out right now, and you can get yours below.

Last year, the final Beatles song Now and Then was released, featuring John Lennon’s original vocals and George Harrison’s guitar.

Completed by Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Ringo Starr, the track has had its live debut by Macca as part of his Got Back tour.

Now the 82-year-old has shared the official footage from his performance of the song at the iconic River Plate Stadium in Buenos Aires.

McCartney sang and played the piano as footage of the Beatles in their youth was displayed behind him.

Argentinian fans became visibly emotional at the sight, with many being left in tears.

Alongside Now and Then, McCartney also played hits from Hey Jude and Live and Let Die to Band on the Run. His Got Back Tour arrives in the UK this December in his first British shows since headlining Glastonbury in 2022.

The living legend will perform two concerts in Machester before heading for a couple at London’s O2 Arena.

The lights in Amsterdam dimmed, and for a moment, no one moved. Beth Hart closed her eyes, took a breath, and whispered into the microphone, “Let me feel this one.” Jeff Beck didn’t answer. He didn’t need to. His guitar spoke first — a soft, aching phrase that hung in the air like a question. They slowed “I’d Rather Go Blind” down to its bare bones. No rush. No protection. Beth sang as if every word cost her something, her voice cracking just enough to feel dangerous, real. “Something told me it was over…” she murmured, and the room leaned forward.

Peter Frampton didn’t just perform “Baby, I Love Your Way” at the Royal Albert Hall — he returned to it, and the room followed him there. Under the soft glow of one of the world’s most storied stages, Frampton’s voice arrived gently, worn in the most beautiful way, carrying decades of memory without losing its tenderness. Then came that guitar tone — unmistakable, instantly familiar — wrapping the audience in something that felt less like a concert and more like a collective exhale.
