In November 2022, Apple Corps released a promotional video for The Beatles’ song “I’m Only Sleeping“ to promote the reissue of the “Revolver” album. The video, created by artist Em Cooper, featured her signature hand-painted oil-paint animation style and was made of more than 1,300 individual oil paintings.

On this day, this video was honored with the Best Music Video award at the 2024 Grammy Awards ceremony.


We won the Grammy!! I can’t believe it! I’m still in shock. Best day of my career and so many kind people saying they connected with the things I said on stage: I believe in art. I believe art generates art. It was the incredible power of The Beatles song I’m Only Sleeping which coiled the spring inside me which generated this expression. Thank you so much @thebeatles @sophiemadeleineobrien, @suereviews @jelly_laura_jelly @universalmusicgroup @applecorpsltd @sean_ono_lennon I feel so proud and so grateful to have made this music video with you.

Never in a million years would I have expected this [reception]. It was a very private project. I didn’t share it with anyone. When it was finished, I just sort of put it out of my mind and carried on with my life. But since it came out, I’m really proud and happy to have done the song justice.
