Recently, the Beatles’ social media channels have focused attention on the #InnerLight2020 Challenge, an initiative launched by George Harrison‘s Material World Foundation in an effort to raise money to help those affected by COVID-19.

One of the most notable things the Beatles YouTube page has done in recent memory was premiering a slick, animated video for the 2019 mix of “Here Comes the Sun”:

That interactive visual trip through the Abbey Road Studios was part of the rollout of last fall’s Abbey Road 50th anniversary set, which was a treasure trove of material for dedicated fans of all things Beatles.
