The song is set to appear on Ringo's 20th solo album, What's My Name, which will be released on October 25. Speaking about the recording process, Ringo said in a statement: 'Jack asked if I ever heard The Bermuda Tapes, John's demos from that time. And I had never heard all this. Share this article Share 'The idea that John was talking about me in that time before he died, well, I'm an emotional person.'And I just loved this song. I sang it the best that I could. I do well up when I think of John this deeply. And I've done my best. We've done our best.' Ringo then went on to say that it wasn't a 'publicity stunt', but was 'just what I wanted', as he added: 'The strings that Jack arranged for this track, if you really listen, they do one line from Here Comes The Sun. So in a way, it's the four of us.'  The news comes after thousands of Beatles fans flocked to the iconic London zebra crossing that was the focus of their Abbey Road album to mark 50 years since the picture was taken last month.John, Paul, George Harrison and Ringo held up traffic on August 8, 1969 by posing on the crossing outside their recording studio to capture the famous shot, taken by freelance photographer Iain Macmillan. And their dedicated fans clamoured to do the same thing today as they packed out the roads in St John's Wood.It was believed that around 2,000 fans were outside Abbey Road Studios so far with lines stretching around both sides of the pavement.Abbey Road was the band's 11th album and the last to be recorded by all the members of the 'Fab Four' at the same time.Relations between them were breaking down and their final record, Let It Be, was finished after they came in to record individually or in smaller groups.
