" Now and Then " (sometimes referred to as " I Do not Want To Miss You " or " Miss You ") is unfinished song by John Lennon , was recorded in 1978 as a solo piano/vocal demo. After his death, it was regarded as the third reunion that may be single by his former band, The Beatles, for their 1995 autobiographical project The Beatles Anthology .
Lennon wrote "Now and Then" in the late 1970s, around the same time as "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love". He recorded an unfinished piece of music in the form of a demo at his home in Dakota Building, New York City, around 1979. The lyrics are typical of Lennon's apologetic love songs in the final half of his career. Despite reports, for most of the verses it is almost complete, although there are still some lines that Lennon did not perfect on the demo tape performance.

In January 1994, Paul McCartney was given two tapes recorded by Lennon's widow Yoko Ono, which included home recordings of Lennon's never-ending or commercially-released songs. The songs on the tape included the finally finished and released "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love", in addition to the other two songs are recording with the words "for Paul" written quickly in John's handwriting, which includes " Grow Old With Me "and" Now and Then ". In March 1995, three surviving Beatles began working on "Now and Then" by recording a rugged backing track that would be used as an overdub. However, after just two days of recording, all the work on the song stopped and plans for a single third reunion were permanently deleted.
According to McCartney, George Harrison "did not want to do it," while an unnamed participant told the Daily Express: "George just does not want to process it because it's not a matter of putting some vocals, or a bit of bass and drums to "Producer Jeff Lynne reports that" One day - one afternoon, really - it screwed up. "The song has a choir but is almost completely lacking in the verses. backing track, a rough go that we really did not finish. " An additional factor behind the song deletion is a technical flaw in the original recording. Like the "True Love", a 60-cycle power set can be heard throughout Lennon's demo recordings. However, it feels louder on '"Now and Then", making it harder to remove.

Boot and report
Throughout 2005 and 2006, press reports speculated that McCartney and Starr would release the full version of the song in the future. On April 29, 2007, The Daily Express reported that the song might be released to coincide with the Beatles catalog released for the first time through digital downloads. The supplementary report was released in the same year that McCartney hoped to complete the song as "Lennon-McCartney's composition" by writing new verses, putting on a new drum track recorded by Ringo Starr, and utilizing Harrison's guitar archive.
In April 2008, The Sun reported that "there was a discussion of 'Now and Then' settlement." From there, the story was taken and repeated by a number of sources of music and entertainment media.
The only recorded song available (official) is Lennon's original demo. In February 2009, the same version of Lennon's recording was released on a pirated CD, taken from a different source, with no "buzz" that retarded the Beatles recording of the song in 1995. Overdub was added in 1995 by another still life. members have not yet appeared.
A popular fan remix of 2007 called "1995 edit" consisted of Lennon's original demo along with instrumental overdubs (by an artist who went by the name of "iamaphoney") and samples of various Beatles songs of the 1960s. Contrary to repeated misunderstandings, this remix does not contain any work of the three surviving members of the Beatles recorded in the 1990s.
During the documentary Jeff Lynne was featured on BBC Four in 2012, Paul McCartney stated about the song: "And there's one more that we started working on, but George went from there... that someone is still lingering, so I'm going for a relationship with Jeff and do it.Complete, someday. "
