Ringo Starr - Photograph

Co-written by Richard Starkey and George Harrison, this was the lead single from Ringo's self-titled 1973 album.

My father died in 1970. I was 5yo. This song was playing in a little diner @ the beach. Mom had taken us on our first outing. The song touched me. I almost never heard it again. Just found this two days ago and can't stop crying and laughing at the same time. I keep replaying it live and in my memory. Thank you to George and Ringo for the beautiful simplicity of this song.

I've been watching it over and over, myself. My mom passed away in November after a very long battle with Alzheimers. Her photos keep popping up(screen saver). For some reason I have to say "I love you mom, and miss you" every time I see her photo. She was a keepah !

Teamwork makes the dream work. The song was written by George Harrison and Ringo Starr

[@srkbear1]

Actually I’m fairly certain that Harrison mainly contributed the chord changes in the verses (Ringo said “I only know three chords; Harrison adds an additional four and they think I’m a genius.” He also clearly led the ecstatic solo/bridge/middle 8 section (especially the 12 string and vocal harmony work). However, the choruses dominate the song, certify the euphoric recall folks still have when recalling it, and exemplify the sweet, childlike joy Ringo possesses that single-handedly saved the Beatles from Death by Virtuosity. It’s the element of the song that made it immortal, and it all came strictly from Ringo’s imagination and no one else’s. I’m never one to pass by an opportunity to laud George, but in this case I think Ringo earned his due...
