A new Lennon-McCartney collab has dropped — but this time, it's by the Beatles' sons

Quick Glance: Sons of John Lennon and Paul McCartney Release New Single

The most famous songwriting credit in history, Lennon-McCartney, has been revived - this time for a song written by the Beatles' sons.

Primrose Hill, a track by Paul McCartney's son James, co-written with Sean Ono Lennon, is an acoustic ballad featuring a shuffling backbeat and contemplative guitar solo.

McCartney described the song in an Instagram post as a vision he had as a child in Scotland: 'Primrose Hill is about getting the ball rolling with me & finding this person.'

Fans also have the chance to acquire a unique piece of McCartney memorabilia - the open-top double-decker bus used by him and Wings for their 1972 European tour, expected to be auctioned for up to £200,000 on April 22.

‘Saturday Night Live’ Can’t Keep it Together: Ryan Gosling hosted an episode that included appearances by Caitlin Clark, Emily Blunt and Kate McKinnon ...

nytimes.com/2024/04/14/arts/television/saturday-night-live-ryan-gosling-kate-mckinnon.html

Quick Glance: Funny Moments with Ryan Gosling and Beavis at SNL

During a television segment on artificial intelligence, the cast of Saturday Night Live had difficulty keeping a straight face as Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day appeared as Beavis and Butt-Head.

Gosling was dressed as Beavis and sat behind Heidi Gardner's character. The costumes of Gosling and Day brought laughter to the cast and the actors themselves.

Heidi Gardner struggled to deliver her lines when she saw Gosling in his Beavis outfit. When Day showed up as Butt-Head, it was even harder for her to stay serious. The entire cast fought with laughter as the sketch continued.

Ryan Gosling is celebrated for his role as Ken in Barbie and has appeared in successful films like Drive and La La Land. A live-action adaptation of Beavis and Butt-Head with him is currently not in the works.

Fourth body discovered as salvage crews race against clock to remove huge sections of collapsed Baltimore bridge

Quick Glance: Investigation of Key Bridge Incident

The FBI has initiated a criminal investigation focusing on the colossal container vessel that caused the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore last month.

Authorities are examining the sequence of events that led to the Dali, a 985-foot Singaporean ship, losing power as it departed from the Port of Baltimore and colliding with one of the bridge's support pillars.

Federal agents appeared to have boarded the ship on Monday morning to conduct a search.

President Biden and Maryland Governor Wes Moore (D) have expressed their commitment to hold accountable any entities potentially responsible for the bridge's destruction.
