The Beatles - Something (REVIEW)

[@WMalven]

That's George. He wrote this song. John's singing back up. Frank Sinatra called it "the greatest love song ever written."

[@russellmorgan5611]

I think Sinatra actually credited this to Lennon and McCartney which wound George up somewhat.

[@324cmac]

It really does sound like John only though. Maybe George did that on purpose?

[@324cmac]

I don't think it's the greatest love song ever written. Some of Frank's were better.

[@davitofarito]

It's Actually George and Paul, not John.

[@WMalven]

@@324cmac LOL!!! Frank didn't write any songs, love or otherwise.

[@jamesnorrisbarrett8927]

McCartney's Bass on this is some of his best work

[@docsavage8640]

His harmonies are quite nice too

[@scottpeterson7469]

Paul writes some the most melodic bass lines. His bass work on “Silly little love songs” is some of my favorite too

[@BigTwinRiver]

Paul is one of those individuals who just IS music incarnate. Mozart, Hendrix, Prince, Karen Carpenter, Brian Wilson. Oh, Aretha Franklin...The truly great are uncommon, but not hopelessly rare to find. I loved how "they" paid tribute to Paul in the documentary on Sound City recording studio. What a great flick.

It's George, not John. George also wrote this masterpiece, really coming into his own as a great songwriter after working in the huge shadow of John and Paul.

[@pokerface1967]

its both of them

[@radioethiopiate]

To be fair, George has a bit of a John-style inflection in his voice, especially here. (Must be that Liverpudlian accent ) It's easy to mistake George for John as a n00b until you get an ear for George's voice. I know I did.

[@007ndc]

I've seen that some consider that George does his best John Lennon imitation with this incredible song . Here Comes The Sun is his Paul imitation

[@davidgoldstein1526]

George wrote the song years before they recorded it for Abbey Road. This is my personal #1 song of all time. It is as close to perfect as a song can be-the lyrics, the melody, the bass line, the drumming and the guitar playing all meld seamlessly together and result in beautiful song.

[@cha0tr0pic]

@@pokerface1967 Nah, this one at least is 100% George!

[@stonehobson2487]

It's a George Harrison composition. Covered by many other artists. George wrote, plays the main guitar part, and sings. This was a precursor to the songs on his All Things Must Pass album. Thank you.

[@botabob]

I didn't realize this was Harrison's work, but as I was watching this reaction, I thought this sounds like something Harrison would write. I have a hard time distinguishing the voices, as I am but a casual listener. Thanks for the information.

[@brewstergallery]

Deep, sweet n sad George is on vocals and guitar. This song, which is about his then wife Pattie Boyd, blew Lennon and McCartney's mind when George Harrison brought it in. When high tone people like Sinatra, Sarah Vaughn, Peggy Lee, O Jays, Isaac Hayes, King Curtis, Tony Bennett, Ray Charles... are singing it, you know you wrote a banger. Currently there are 628 recorded versions of it.

George Harrison wrote four songs about a woman - Patty Boyd, 'Something,' 'I Need You' and 'So Sad,' and 'For You Blue'.' Eric Clapton also wrote five songs about Patty Boyd, 'Layla", 'Wonderful Tonight,' 'She Waiting,' 'Old Love' (my favorite), and 'Bell Bottom Blues.' That's a lot of inspiration for one woman to be the muse for so many great songs. Love your amazing analysis and comments on the music.

But timewise AR was released first then Let It Be.

[@stevedahlberg8680]

My absolute favorite part of this song is the bridge. And George is totally bringing it on lead vocals. And the high harmony is just killer.

[@docsavage8640]

Isn't that the chorus? Does this song even have a bridge?

[@EchoesDaBear]

Great reaction!! George made some of the the best Beatles songs!! And that's him singing it, playing guitar on it - he owns this one! This probably places in my top 5 Beatles tracks. It's just beautiful.

I was in 7th grade when this came out. I'm 66 and this song hits me much harder today then back then. The Beatles were the modern equivalent of Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms frorming a group (my apologize to fans of Chopin and others who belong in this group). I'm the son of a 60's jazz musician.

[@edwardcapobianco2975]

Great bass playing by Paul. George said Paul's bass line was a bit too busy for George's liking. It's the perfect formula that made them so great. The contributions that each made on the others songs is what put them in a class by themselves. On the opening track come together it was Ringos drum pattern and Paul's bass playing again that made the song. John's original arrangement had a much faster tempo. Paul suggested slowing it down and giving it a "swampy" bass line and feel. Add in Ringos 100% perfect and memorable drum pattern and you get The usual Beatles platinum standard! On the track Something it was George's soulful,bluesy guitar and Paul's bass playing that carried the song and compliments eachother perfectly! Pure Beatles fire!

[@ivanjulian2532]

The great thing about Abbey Road is how awesome Paul was as a backing musician on the songs that he didn't write. There isn't band on the planet who wouldn't have wanted Paul's skills at that point in his career - purely as a backing muso.

It's George. He wrote it. He was always my favorite Beatle, but when he wrote this one, he hit the pinnacle. There will never be another Beatles. The table was set for them by what went before, and there can never be another table set like that one so it follows there can never be another Beatles. They were absolutely right for their, which was also my, time. At 79 I am so thankfully I came along during the period I did. Probably America's golden age, but certainly music's golden age. Recording tech was just coming fully into it's own at that time and they just carried it forward like no one else. I loved them.

Such a beautiful, beautiful song. George’s solo work is worth diving into. He didn’t put out the same volume of work as McCartney or Lennon, but he is one of the best song writers ever.

[@docsavage8640]

George had a LOT of duds in his solo catalogue. Maybe listen to all his LPs before you say such silly things. He was great when he was "on," but he churned out a lot of mediocre tunes when uninspired to fill out his albums. Same thing happened to the others after the band was over. But all made at least one masterpiece album.

[@hmm3484]

⁠@@docsavage8640Well, I HAVE listened to (and own) all of George’s solo work. Maybe you’re the one who hasn’t listened to his songs. Yes, he had some duds but they’re far outweighed but what’s good. Besides, it’s not as if all of them didn’t have duds. Some of Paul’s solo work is horrendous; some of it’s great, just like George’s, John’s, or Ringo’s.

[@jamesdrynan]

George's guitar solo was recorded live with the string accompaniment. It is regarded as one of the tastiest iconic solos. One of George's songs that acknowledged him as a gifted songwriter.

[@ChristopherRobinson-l5v]

Ringo’s drums on this are extraordinary. It’s the perfect combination of sadness and funk.

Written and sung by George for the penultimate rock muse Pattie Boyd - the same Pattie Boyd that Eric Clapton wrote Layla for, which has references to George not being there when Pattie needed him.

There are moments in songs over the years that are so painfully beautiful, you physically feel the bittersweet ache. For me it doesn't happen often, but the vocal harmony of "and all I have to do is think of her" has always melted me. George gets my vote for best love song ever as well as best pop song ever with "Here Comes the Sun."

[@gregcable3250]

George lead singer, guitar parts, and wrote the song. It is about his wife Patti Boyd, who Eric Clapton was in love with and finally got away from his best friend George in the 70s and married. But before he got her, he got a heroin addition over her and wrote Layla about her (i.e., Layla is Patti Boyd) as well as many of the "and other assorted Love Songs" which is the extended title of the "Layla" album with Derek and the Dominoes. A great album with alot of anguish throughout and great playing--I recommend "Have you ever loved a women" --Eric on lead vocal and guitar, slide guitar is Duane Allman, and also "Why does love got to be so sad?" from the album.

[@marksimpson1991]

When it comes to the Beatles, typically whoever wrote it, sang it. George and John sound fairly similar vocally, and it was John who taught George how to sing. In my opinion the best backing vocals of any Beatles song is one that Ringo wrote, and it's "Octopus" Garden". John and Pauls backing vocals are as smooth as velvet on that one, changing Octaves all over the place.

[@CuriousGeorge1111]

You say Abbey Road is two for two? Just you wait! Between Abbey Road and Tommy, you guys have hit musical gold. Both albums are from musical geniuses at the top of their game. Yeah, The Beatles recorded Let It Be first, and Apple wasn't sure how to finish the production--they eventually had Phil Spector do a controversial job, eventually releasing it after Abbey Road. Then the lads asked George Martin to produce one last, traditional, Beatles studio album and here it is--a masterpiece of masterpieces. George wrote and sang this masterpiece, and had tried for years to get the band to record it. Don't worry, in time you will be able to recognize George's more nasal and less forceful voice. Lennon had a classic rock voice that he could scream and shred. Paul's harmonies and loving, walking, melodious bass, Ringo's drumming, George Harrison's vocals and writing, George Martin's arrangement and production... perfection. I'm looking forward to re-experiencing it with you.

“Something” was the only single released from this album, “Come Together” was on the “B” side.

[@RadCenter]

If you watch the three-part documentary by Peter Jackson (director of "Lord of the Rings" and also the Beatles' "Now and Then" video) called "The Beatles: Get Back," you'll see the day George brought this partially finished song to the rest of the band to be completed. George hadn't finished the lyrics, so John helpfully suggested inserting nonsense lyrics like "attracts me like a cauliflower" until the right lyrics came to him. The whole documentary is riveting, as you feel like a fly on the wall while songs for two of the greatest albums of all time-"Abbey Road" and "Let It Be"-are recorded. It's more than 9 hours, but worth every minute. Besides their own songs, the various band members play all or part of many other songs in different styles, including blues and rockabilly. I counted at least 200. I came away impressed not only by their deep musical knowledge but by John's guitar skills, which I had never really appreciated.

[@ivanjulian2532]

Guitarist Nerd moment... the solo was played on a 57 Les Paul in the Rhythm "neck" pickup position through a Fender amp. Due to a lack of remaining recording tracks on the 8 track master recording machine, I believe George had to play the solo live along with the backing orchestra. The Les Paul later became famous as "Lucy", she's cherry red in color and it was also the guitar Eric Clapton used to record the solo for While My Guitar Gently Weeps. The solo is often quoted as one of the best of all time. Lucy is still in the family collection.

George didn't get many of his songs on the Beatles albums (usually 2 per album), but ome of the songs he did get on, were amazing.
