There's a lot of cool parts about this video, but I do not understand why they did some of the uncanny valley stuff. Like at 1:17 to 1:20 they had Lennon that seems to be CGI mouth moving, seems so unnecessary. That being said, the song itself is crazy good, in my opinion. I don't even consider myself to be a big Beatles fan. I listened to the original Lennon demo and it's beautiful but also I think this version helps elevate it.
George did a ton of the heavy lifting on this song's composition back in 94 but the tech just wasn't there to salvage the original demo's vocals. Final product in 2023 sounds so, so good.
