This song has a more…”distant” quality to the sound. It doesn’t seem (to me) like the other songs from before. The lyrics seem a bit too short in comparison too. But it’s haunting enough for me to listen to it several more times.
I was recently listening to a few of those melancholic or nostalgic songs because they were different yet similar to their original styles — The Fool on the Hill, Nowhere Man, Eleanor Rigby, Norwegian Wood, Girl, Michelle, Strawberry Fields Forever, In My Life, and Yesterday.
Edit: I hope deepfakes and AI don’t create more Beatles (or Beatles-like) songs. It’s enough to have what we have and be contented with those.

It's not very good imo. If it weren't the Beatles, it wouldn't be heard.
I think it's a beautiful song and I think watching the "Making Of" video made the song more impactful for me, making me think of those four close friends and now with only two of them left... "Now and Then"
