john lennon
in 1994, yoko gave paul mccartney some cassettes containing demo recordings of four of john lennon's unfinished songs: "grow old with me", "free as a bird", "real love" and "now and then" with "for paul" written on them in john's handwriting. the three remaining beatles (paul mccartney, george harrison and ringo starr) never attempted to work on "grow old with me" in a similar way that they had with the other beatles "reunion" songs. "free as a bird" and "real love" were the only ones completed. they did work on now and then but decided to abandon it because lennon's original demo required too much work to bring it up to the standard needed for an official release. there do exist, however, recorded versions of "grow old with me".
