Who in the Beatles Are Still Alive

Who in the Beatles Are Still Aliveの全体像を分かりやすくまとめてご紹介します。

Here’s where it gets a bit tricky. If you’re counting the people who were technically part of the band’s extended orbit, there’s one more name: Pete Best. Remember him? He was the Beatles’ original drummer before Ringo.

Pete is alive and well at 82. He’s still a nice guy, and he doesn’t hold a grudge—or so he says. (I’ve always wondered if he secretly plays Ringo’s drum parts in his head while gardening.) Also alive: Stuart Sutcliffe’s memory—but Stu himself died tragically young in 1962, so he doesn’t count for the “alive” list.

Why Does This Even Matter?

Here’s the thing: the “who’s still alive” question isn’t just trivia. It’s a weird litmus test for our own mortality. When Paul and Ringo finally leave this world (please not for a long time, universe), it will truly close a chapter. The Beatles won’t just be a band that broke up—they’ll be a band that completely vanished into history.

But for now, we’ve got Paul playing “Hey Jude” with fireworks behind him, and Ringo shouting “Peace and love!” from a stage. Every time they perform, they’re not just playing music. They’re insisting that the band’s spirit still breathes. And honestly? That makes me grin.

So if you’re reading this and feeling a bit gloomy, remember this: two of the four are still here, still making noise, and still causing fans to scream. That’s a lot more than most bands from the 1960s can say. Long live Paul. Long live Ringo. And long live the day your cousin realizes that those grainy black-and-white faces are still, in a very real way, dancing.

Now, go put on “Abbey Road” and annoy your neighbors. You’re welcome.
