In an alternative universe, the 1960s began with a sense of melancholy and despair. Music was no longer a source of joy and hope, but a reminder of what once was. John Lennon and Paul McCartney, two of the most influential musicians of our time, never crossed paths in this world, and their absence left a significant void in the music industry.

The Beatles, the band that changed the face of popular music forever, never formed. Instead, Lennon pursued a solo career as a struggling artist, while McCartney became a factory worker to make ends meet. Without each other's support and creative genius, their music lacked the spark that made it so magical. Their personal lives were just as colourless and depressing as their professional careers. Lennon struggled with relationships and found it hard to trust people. His marriage to Cynthia ended in divorce, and his relationship with his son Julian was strained. McCartney, on the other hand, lost his wife Linda to cancer, leaving him alone and desolate. As the years passed, the lack of inspiration and joy in the music industry began to affect other areas of life. People became disillusioned, and the sense of community that music once brought was lost. The world became a bleak and gray place, and it seemed like all hope was gone.

As hopelessness spread, Lennon and McCartney lost their will to live. The absence of joy in music and the lack of inspiration in their personal lives left them feeling empty and lost. They lost their loves, and the world around them began to crumble. In the end, Lennon died alone, desolate and consumed by despair, his creativity stifled and his hope long gone. McCartney lived on, but his life was a sad and empty existence, with no joy or inspiration left to sustain him. Both men suffered the tragic fate of losing all that they loved, and their lives ended in sorrow and defeat.

The absence of Lennon and McCartney left a void, and it was ultimately filled with despair and desolation. The music scene of the sixties was bleak and uninspiring. The melodies were monotonous, the lyrics were shallow, and the performances lacked energy. People no longer gathered in crowds to dance to the beat of the music; instead, they listened to it in silence, almost as if they were mourning its loss.

The absence of The Beatles affected not only the music industry but also society as a whole. The counterculture movement never emerged, and the political and social changes that followed were less impactful. The world remained divided, and the hope for a brighter future faded away.
As the years passed, the lack of inspiration and joy in the music industry began to affect other areas of life. People became disillusioned, and the sense of community that music once brought was lost. The world became a bleak and gray place, and it seemed like all hope was gone. Some artists tried to create music but their efforts were in vain: people could not shake off the feeling of hopelessness. This lack of hope ultimately led to a global mental health crisis that left the world vulnerable to a deadly virus.

As hopelessness spread, people lost the will to live. The lack of joy in music and the absence of cultural change left the world in a state of despair. People stopped caring about the environment, and the earth suffered as a result. Governments crumbled, and the world became a lawless place.
In the end, the lack of hope led to the destruction of the world. The human race failed to thrive, and life as we know it came to an end. The world died because of a lack of hope, and there was no way to bring it back.
