Even after the Beatles broke up in the late 1960s, ‘Beatlemania’ never really died down. With members John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, they are still widely regarded as one of the most influential music groups in history.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney are arguably the most famous out of the four band members, and are credited with writing most of their hit songs.

So it comes as no surprise that folks were thrilled when their sons, Sean Ono and James McCartney, posted a selfie on Instagram that took Beatles fans back to the 60s.

CBS reports that:

Lennon uploaded the picture with the caption: “Peakaboo…” The photo now has more than 26,000 likes on social media platform, with many commenters getting overjoyed over the reunion.

“How fantastic to see John and Paul’s sons together, love this XX,” wrote one user. Another said, “The spitting images of your parents!”

Some are even seeking a musical collaboration in the near future. One person wrote: “PLEASE MAKE A SONG FOR US.”

Here’s the selfie – Ono on the left and McCartney on the right:

Compare that with their fathers – Lennon on the right and McCartney on the left:

Sean is the son of Lennon and Yoko Ono. He also has a brother, Julian, who is the son of Lennon and the late singer’s ex-wife Cynthia Lennon. James is McCartney’s fourth kid under his first marriage with Linda McCartney, who died in 1998. James has four other sisters.

Lennon has been on a Beatles’ kids photo tour of sorts. Last week, he snapped a picture with George Harrison’s son, Dhani, leaving fans to wonder if there’s more to come — or hope for a reincarnation of the iconic boy band.

“Now you guys get Dhani and Zack in the new band! Beatles the Next Generation!” said one commenter.

Sounds like wishful thinking.

Still, the resemblance is uncanny.
