The Beatles Make History With First of Its Kind Win at 2025 Grammys!
The Beatles have claimed their 14th Grammy Award win after taking home the prize for ‘Best Rock Performance’ for ‘Now and Then’.
The band have a longstanding history with Grammy Awards. If you include special honours, singular awards and Grammy Hall Of Fame awards, the total trophies they have taken home over the years now shoots up to 30. Although only six of the awards were won while Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr were still active as a group.
Sean Ono Lennon was on hand to speak on the band’s behalf after previously winning in another category for “Best Boxed or Limited Edition Package” for Mind Games.
“Since no-one is coming up to take this award, I figured I’d come and sit in. I really didn’t expect to be accepting this award on behalf of my father’s group, The Beatles, It’s really incredible, if you think about it. The Beatles have done so much incredible work and they’re still in the culture and people still listen to the music. As far as I’m concerned, it’s the greatest band of all time.”
“I think I was supposed to be here with Giles Martin who mixed this with Paul [McCartney] and he did an incredible job. I don’t know. I just want to say play The Beatles music to your kids. I feel like the world can’t afford to forget about people like The Beatles. We need this music in the world. We need peace and love and we need the magic of the ‘60s to say alive.”
In addition to The Beatles, the Best Rock Performance category included The Black Keys’ “Beautiful People (Stay High),” Green Day’s “The American Dream Is Killing Me,” IDLES’ “Gift Horse,” Pearl Jam’s “Dark Matter” and St. Vincent’s “Broken Man.”
‘Now and Then’ was initially a demo which Lennon had made shortly before his death.
His widow, Yoko Ono, later gave the recording to the surviving members of The Beatles, who first attempted to record the track in 1995 as a trio when they made ‘Free As A Bird’ and ‘Real Love’ for the Anthology project.
