1969-John and Yoko Ono buy Tittenhurst Park, a mansion in Ascot, Berkshire,  for £145,000, and moved into it on 11 August later that year. It was considerably renovated before their arrival, including the creation of an artificial lake which they could see from their bedroom window.
The Beatles' final photographic session took place at Tittenhurst Park on 22 August 1969. The images were used on the cover of the Hey Jude compilation early the following year.

A recording studio, known as Ascot Sound Studios or ASS, was installed at Tittenhurst in 1970. John's Imagine album and Ono's Fly were both recorded there. The sessions were filmed, and footage was later released in the documentary Gimme Some Truth: The Making Of John Lennon's Imagine. John and Ono moved to the United States in August 1971, and Lennon never returned to England.

Speaking on the telephone from New York, on 10 September 1973 he instructed an Ascot estate agent to put the mansion on the housing market.Ringo renamed the recording facilities Startling Studios. He made it available to other musicians, including T.Rex who filmed Born To Boogie there. Ringo sold Tittenhurst in 1988 for £5 million to Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the president of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of Abu Dhabi.

The music video features a slide show-type presentation of stills and short archival video clips. The emphasis is on Lennon and, to a lesser degree, Harrison. The post-Beatles stills of Lennon at older ages are countered with stills of Harrison from the same time frame:
