OpenAI's Answer
The release of "Real Love" in 1996 faced several challenges:
-
Commercial Success: Although "Real Love" was part of the Beatles' Anthology project and followed the success of "Free As A Bird," it did not achieve the same level of commercial success, peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and selling 500,000 copies in the first three months.
-
Comparison to Previous Hits: There were high expectations following "Free As A Bird," and "Real Love" needed to meet those expectations while competing with the legacy of the Beatles' previous hits.
