The music industry’s Music Matters campaign has an impressive new video to promote its goals, armed with a soundtrack from The Beatles. The video uses a selection of audio clips from famous Fab Four songs, with suitably psychedelic stick-man animation explaining why the Beatles’ music matters. The surviving members of the band are fully behind the clip, it seems. In a blog post, the film’s writer explains that the film was sent to Music Matters as a preview. “Then I hear that Paul and Ringo were quite taken with the stick figures and I go back to having panic attacks. It hadn’t occurred to me that Beatles were actually going to look at the film, let alone give me feedback. Really useful feedback at that.”
