I get the art of the video. Youth wonders about the meaning of life as independence is gained (symbolized by the girl leaving home). Leaving the playground behind she ponders death in the cemetery and celebrates (not fears) its inevitable rapture. Then the inexplicable chemistry erupts as she encounters love. This is true to George Harrison's spirituality.

About the video . . . George Harrison's widow and son, Olivia and Dhani Harrison, held an online competition in which filmmakers were invited to create a video clip for "What Is Life". The winner would receive a $5000 cash prize and have their entry become the official video for the track, appearing on the George Harrison KZbin channel and other media platforms. In November, Olivia and Dhani selected Brandon Moore of Oakland, California, as the winner. Moore's video comprises dance interpretations by Emma Rubinowitz and Esteban Hernandez of the San Francisco Ballet, filmed in the streets and woods of the San Francisco Presidio.

I am 66 (as we're on the subject!) and well remember what George's music meant to me when I was a youngster. Beatles' numbers always recall the top deck of the school bus and the girls from the girls' grammar. Ah, the memories! At the time, here in the UK, this track -- and also George's _If Not For You_ -- seemed to be interpreted more often by Olivia Newton John than by the writer himself. She did a good job with them, I think.

This could have been a Beatles song, just like "Junk" & "Maybe I'm Amazed" on Macca's 1970 album. They just split before anything happened to the songs and released them on their own albums. That's why a lot of the music the four released closely after the split sounds like it would be The Beatles music. Still composed in the Beatles spirit if you will.

The winner would receive a $5000 cash prize and their entry would become the official video for the track, appearing on the George Harrison KZbin channel and other media platforms. In November, Olivia and Dhani selected Brandon Moore of Oakland, California as the winner. Moore's video comprises dance interpretations by Emma Rubinowitz and Esteban Hernandez of the San Francisco Ballet, filmed in the streets and woods of the San Francisco Presidio.

[@fredfred9519]

Emma Rubinowitz left San Francisco Ballet in 2019, but Esteban Hernandez still dances there as a Principle. The dancer's 'dance interpretations' were choreographed by the video's Art Director/Choreographer Dana Genshaft who was at the time a soloist at San Francisco Ballet. The video scenes are quite close to each other and are located either side of Veterans Boulevard. The actual location of each scene is - 0:06 going towards Upton Avenue 0:25 Kobbe Avenue, looking towards Upton Avenue 0:41 & 1:14 Fort Scott Community Garden, Wisser Court 1:43 & 1:48 San Francisco National Cemetery, between Main Drive and First Drive West 2:01 between the National Cemetery and Park Boulevard, with Veterans Boulevard in the background

George did become a superb songwriter but much later than John and Paul. John was 17 and Paul was still 15 when George joined the group

Actually, George had a tough time getting his songs on records. He was a friend of Paul's from school and John thought he was too young to be in the band. Paul had George play some song that was considered difficult at the time and that sold Lennon. By the time the Beatles broke up, George had enough material for his first solo album. Most of what was on it were songs John and Paul weren't interested in recording
