Honestly, I feel like George made the right call. The harmonies and synthesizer riffs are more than enough in its place. Also, do you remember that clip where Dahni, Giles (?) and George Martin discovered the solo while remixing the song? The pure look of astonishment on George Martin's face is something I'm sure we all shared.

@elirosen1391 - yeah, it's such a great moment - especially witnessing Dhani's pure joy at hearing something 'new' from his Dad for the first time. I'm a little surprised they didn't release a bonus version with the solo for the Abbey Road Deluxe Edition box set. That would have been neat!

I was lucky enough to drive George on a number of occasions when he came to LA. I noticed a tiny instrument case he carried into the back of the limo and asked if it was a ukulele. "Yes, it's the most versatile instrument I own." and he proceeded to take it out and play Here Comes the Sun just for me. I had no recording device on me so it's only in my memory but it's a highlight of my life.

I think that comment is indicative of the contempt that some had of George's songwriting compared to that of John and Paul's at that time. Of course, in retrospect, it is absurd. The song Something iwas one of the most covered songs in the 20th century and Frank Sinatra thought it was the best love song he had heard. Here Comes the Sun is now the most downloaded song in the Beatles catalog. Case closed.

My father passed away two years ago after a 12-year battle with Alzheimer's. As he lost his abilities, music was the one thing that always sparked a reaction, especially the music of his favorite band, The Beatles. Even when he could barely respond to anything, just a few chords from the Fab Four would light up his eyes and bring a smile to his face. On the day of my father's funeral, unbeknownst to my mother and me, my sister asked the choir to sing Here Comes the Sun as they carried his coffin. It was one of the most joyful and heartbreaking moments of my life. After two years of longing, this will always be our song.

@@gordon5004 Yeah, it's a shame that falsehood has been repeated so many times over the years that's it's been commonly accepted as fact. It's especially disappointing when considering Sinatra the artist was noted for taking great care in always crediting the writers of all the songs he performed, be it Gershwin or Porter, Rogers and Hart or Hammerstein, Sondheim, Mercer, Cahn and Van Heusen, Legrand, the Bergmans or Berlin. Sinatra had especially high praise for Something calling it one of the great love songs of the 20th century. He tried recording it 3 times (all fails), he told us why he liked the song - because it manages to say I love you without ever actually using the words "I love you" - and he met George. I think it's safe to say Frank knew which beatle wrote the song. Ironically, it was Paul McCartney who started that rumor on I believe the Mike Douglas show. Food for thought.

I think part of the reason Here Comes The Sun is so successful is that at first listen it seems so simple but then on repeated listening the layers and complications weave their way into your brain. It’s fascinating that he was able to weave just enough complexity into it without overwhelming the feeling of simplicity. He would try certain elements and then pull them back as too far. The result feels as delicate as a soufflé.

I first heard "Here Comes the Sun" on a cheap, portable turntable at Ft. Polk, LA. It was just after I returned from Viet Nam and I was trying to shed that year and its misery. One of the NCOs at the company to which I had just been assigned was pulling CQ (Charge of Quarters) that night; I couldn't sleep (my body clock and brain were still in the war), and he loaned me his player and the album and opened the Mess Hall ("Dining Facility" these days) and told me to listen. I must have played the album 5 or 6 times. I must have plays HCTS a dozen. It helped pull me back from the war. In the 200 or so times I've played it over the decades, it never fails to soothe. An amazing pice of writing, singing, and arranging. Pure beauty. RIP, George Harrison, and thank you. You were one of a kind and you truly helped a young G.I.

When I went through a particularly bad case of COVID-19 in March-April 2020, I remember the nursing staff at the hospital would play this in the hallways whenever a COVID patient lived and got to leave the hospital to go home. They actually played this for me twice--the first time when I was being transferred to another hospital for physical rehab, but I contracted pneumonia shortly after and was sent back to the original hospital. A couple weeks later, I was able to leave to actually go home and they played it again for me as they wheeled me out. Still makes me smile anytime I hear this song (and Elton John's "I'm Still Standing").

There's something incredibly timeless in their music. Heck even their early years have many timeless classics, And all new generations still discover the fab four for the first time. I've seen lots of youngsters in the past 2 years who watched the Beatles "Get Back" mini series with great excitement, seeing how some of their favorite songs were conceived at the time the Beatles sadly grew apart as a band but started to become emancipated independent musicians. My dad always loved the Beatles and i came to them because of him. I remember as a kid in the 90s, always looking curiously at his Cassettes of the two Beatles compilation Albums, where they look down from a staircase. I personally had the great honor of walking around Liverpool, seeing the Penny Lane statue and walking by the Cavern Club and residing in a hostel pretty close to it. Felt like walking on holy ground.

"Being in that space was otherworldly" When I was in a state of mystical psychosis that resulted in a near death experience, I was tapping into all kinds of synchronicity in and around that space. It's kind of like in the movie, Taking Woodstock, where one person tells another, "Go see what the center of the universe looks like" and it looks like a big circle with a fire in the center. It's all about the collective unconscious. When I was in that state, I was tapping deeply into the collective unconscious. I forget exactly what I used to say, but it was something similar to "When you look into an abyss, the abyss looks also into you." The universe notices you noticing. That's what synchronicity is. I'm pretty sure Leary said something similar. It happened 15 years ago, so my memory is a bit fuzzy. Similarly, I think we come in knowing, and forget.

Not to forget they were also insanely unreliable too because the circuits were VERY sensitive to temperature changes and that made them very hard to tune and keeping them in tune. Kraftwerk famously always had to re-tune their instruments after every song during their concerts, sometimes even compensating that during the song as they played. This is something that got a lot better in the 80s when Oscillators became digitally controlled and not purely voltage controlled. The Oscillators were still analog but a digitally controlled power-input made them a LOT more in-tune. In the beginning Synthesizers really were only at their best when used in the Studio and a controllable environment. And yes, not many could afford both.

LOL... 10 years ago I was in an induced coma/vent for six days with pneumonia. When I came out of it I was very confused thanks to the drug cocktail I was kept under... paranoid, and didn't even remember why I was there. But in the early waking I had a dream I was driving in a car and hearing Bobby Vinton singing Blue Velvet. The entire song, all the way to the ending. No one in the hospital heard it - it was all in my dream, there must have been something to seed it. But in the shape I was in, I would rather have heard Here Comes The Sun. But the Blue Velvet thing did get me back into David Lynch and that movie as well as Twin Peaks, the show that broke television.

I would argue that he was actually the secret sauce. Hear me out: Wings and John's solo work are theoretically not terribly different from their later contributions to The Beatles catalog. So why, then, are those tunes, with a handful of notable exceptions, generally not venerated to the same extent? I maintain it is because of the absence of George's tasteful and divine contributions. Yes, he was a wingman to a degree, enhancing the other guys' work, but without his input (and to be fair Ringo's as well) those solo releases just are a bit lacking. Anyway, I just get the sense he was the straw that stirred the drink, as they say. I can say with certainty that his playing gives me chills in many of their tunes, and if there ever were an example of the whole being greater than the sum of the parts, it is with the aptly named Fab Four.

You can clearly feel that this song hasn't been written in the mood of 'what song shall we write today' it came straight from the heart. Also the phrase "It's alright" has a very comforting feel to it not only after a dark night but also, as the song tells us, after a long dark winter which metaphorically could speak for a less uplifting period in life as we all have experienced at some point but now it's alright, the dark has gone and we see the light.

Me too - as a songwriter, I quickly picked up how he opted for that alliteration using the s on the 'iSe is Slowing melting' and 'Smiles returning to the faSes'. Good choice then to replace the 'feels' with 'Seems like new Since it'S been clear'. Writing lyrics didn't come easily to George but he worked at it and eventually he struck gold. When George was struggling with the lyric of Something, the suggestion for John to use the word 'cauliflower' as a place holder was hilarious - but essentially correct. Often in pop writing, it can be less about direct meaning, than about the feeling of a word and the way it sits in the music and the surrounding words' sounds. Sometimes you have to wait and hang in there until the correct word to fill the hole emerges. People often make up their own meanings in the imaginations anyway... and then there are mondegreens...!

Love that song - George was a fantastic musician and composer. And boy can one be tired of those "know it all" journalists who always believe their opinion rules. He showed them :)

I had it on a 45 at age 9 in '69. I watched my older, hippie brother change from his "Coke bottle bottoms" glasses into round tinted 'Lennon specs'. His apartment had hanging bead strings in the doorways and a huge hookah where the coffee table was supposed to be. I inherited most of his albums and 45s from the mid to late sixties, so I was tapping out In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida melodies and such probably before anybody my age at that time. I wish I had kept all of those records.

That was the glide/portamento from the keyboard controller. The same thing Emerson used to great effect on ELP's Lucky Man and Hoedown , REO Speedwagon's intro to Ridin' the Storm Out, and a thousand other Moog solos. Simple and inexpensive to implement, it's a feature on almost every analog synth. George's Moog also had a ribbon controller that could also be used to play glide-y stuff, as did Keith Emerson's (but his could also shoot out fireballs on stage!).

Well said! 👍 The only thing I would add is that I often say that ALL the members of The Beatles should get some sort of song-writing credit for EACH song. When The Beatles broke up and recorded their solo albums and thus had to rely on studio musicians, the studio musicians were there to basically just pick up a paycheck. Punch in, punch out for the day. But when Paul brought into the studio an early draft of a song ... or John did ... or later George ... all the other members would attack the song, each adding a little bit here, a little bit there. In essence, "writing" their parts to the song. And they did this until they ALL felt the song was done -- a real group effort. It appeared to be a painstaking process, but I think each member felt that if it was a Beatles product, then it had to be the very best it could be. They were all upholding The Beatles name. 😃

One thing that amazes me about Here Comes The Sun is how easily Ringo was able to play through all those time changes in the bridge section, 7/8, 11/8, 4/4 without a hitch. Yet, when you listen to the transitional parts between the choruses and verses, isolate the drum tracks, and you can hear George pickscraping his electric guitar on the triplet parts to help Ringo along. That he could play the real time changes seemlessly speaks higher volumes of Ringo's talent that the parts where he did need George's help.

Genuinely a masterful breakdown of a monumental Beatles song. What makes it especially brilliant is the introduction of a new piece of recording and music making electronics, 'the Mog'. And here, for 60 some years, the entire world had thought it a Moog synthesizer.

The guitar and Leslie amp almost sounded like an organ and I wouldn't have been the wiser. The more I learn about these anomalies and quirks it makes me appreciate how many studio breakthroughs and experimentations makes a song what it is.

I love George and the songs he wrote. He's by far my favorite Beatle. If I had to choose between all four of these geniuses. There is nothing mediocre about any of them.

@@hw343434 I can easily imagine Paul singing "Sun, sun, sun, here it comes,: for the fourth time and saying, "That's enough already." And at that stage, he may have seemed right! But George cleverly added new textures every time the phrase repeated with strings and handclaps and synths to keep the interest going. Now it's a classic (and Paul loves it, too).

Here Comes The Sun is one of my favorite Beatles songs. It was on my phone answering for years, because I love how cheerful a greeting it is. I loved all the George songs on all the Beatles albums, it’s to pick favorite songs by the Beatles because there are so many wonderful gems on all their later albums. Long live the Beatles and music!! In 2013, my mom was in the ICU in a coma for over a month, she was in hospital and later rehab for 7 months and had 27 surgeries, I went down to Southern California and stayed with my sister for months, when I got home, my dad called me on the phone, we talked for about an hour, but the part that sticks with me, is my dad saying how much he and my mom loved the Beatles, he sang It’s Been And A Hard Days Night to me & said that song was exactly how he felt.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

such delight I have, listening to this song. It is so hopeful. In 4 years while running over 2000 miles, I listened to this song on most of my runs, often multiple times. Such joy in hearing the music as I observed the plants and sunlight and experienced the stress and perseverance of running! Praise God.

I lost my son in October of '22, i knew i was slowly loosing him. I held him in my arms every morning, feeding him to the sunrise. 'Here Comes the sun" came over the radio one day. And it became a song we played every morning. Now Everytime i hear this song. I sit up like The Undertaker with heartache.

I think the Beatles have a lot of songs in their catalogue about the joy of seeing the sun because they're from rainy, cloudy England. It's ALWAYS a blessing when the sun shines in England, unlike in many other places on the globe.

Amazing video! I’ve known about the guitar solo for quite some time, and heard it a while ago. It’s good that you should mention this, as it is a crucial lost piece to Here Comes The Sun. I didn’t realize that love had George singing the extra “and I say”, that’s really neat! I edited the guitar solo and extra “and I say” into the song, but sadly of course I can’t post it due to copyright.
