Art Has No Expiration Date
Always Was, Always Will Be

Here’s a fun and horrifying fact sent to me by Day By Dayer Matt Landry - somebody born in the 1800s would have as much a chance of hearing the first Beatles album, Please Please Me, as would somebody born today. (Actually, they likely would have a greater chance.)

This is due to the fact that last week was June 11, 2026.

Please Please Me was released on March 22, 1963.

So…

December 31, 1899 to March 22, 1963 = 23,091 days

March 22, 1963 to June 11, 2026 = 23,092 days

That album now officially was released closer to the 1800s than today.
