In the mid-nineties, the song was considered as a possible reunion single by Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison during the making of The Beatles Anthology. Instead they recorded Free As A Bird and Real Love. Now more than twenty years later, there is some kind of a new Beatles reunion with Paul and Ringo covering the track.
