Free as a Bird was written and recorded as a demo by John Lennon. In 1995, it was worked on by the remaining members of The Beatles and released in December of that year. I remember watching a TV program back then that promised to play this post-Beatles Beatles song and I was as excited as I ever was in my life, before or since. They counted down the seconds leading up to playing it and it was so surreal. I fell in love with the song the second I heard it and it remains one of my favourites to this day.
