The Beatles Score A Brand New Top 10 Hit In Their Home Country

The Beatles don’t release “new” music very often. The band was all but done with doing so for decades before they returned with “Now and Then” in late 2023, which the remaining two members promised would be the last thing they’ll release…probably. While they’re not writing and recording like they did so many decades ago, those companies that own the rights to everything they made continue to share archival projects and previously unreleased tunes and recordings—and fans snap them up without hesitation.
The Fab Four collect new hits on two charts in their home country of the United Kingdom this week. The band even manages to return to the top 10 on a tally with a debut, which is surprising given how long it’s been since they first split.
The Beatles’ latest offering, “From Us To You,” debuts at No. 9 on this week’s Official Vinyl Singles chart. It’s the seventh top 10 smash from the rockers, and not even their first new one of 2024.
In August, a project titled “From Us To You - 2 March 1964” hit the same tally. The Beatles pushed that set to No. 6, and now they’ve collected their second new top 10 smash—at least on vinyl—of the year.
