There’s a lot written about Lennon & McCartney’s harmonies but I think George’s with Paul blends so perfectly. When Eric Clapton is your lead guitarist and Paul McCartney is your backing singer AND the song is THIS good the magic will follow. Also Ringo is great on this.

[@donovansiu6331]

you are right Rick, I saw a documentary not too long ago, and they mentioned about this song. George was struggling with the guitar solo or something like he couldn't hit some notes smoothly. And Eric Clapton happens to be hanging out with them at the studio at the time. So they asked Eric Clapton to mess around with it, and he got it done first try.

George Harrison was an excellent song writer, guitarist and singer. He just didn’t get the amount of attention that Paul and John received. George was “the quiet Beatle”.

[@mezellenjohnson2753]

Very true sweetheart, he and Ringo were always my favourite Beatles, God bless you Mary-Ellen UK

Yes, George definitely grew into an advanced creative composer. But unlike some, I rather liked his music all the way at the beginning, including such early work as "Don't Bother Me."

[@bobbobbins4877]

He got less attention because he didn't write as many hits. It's as simple as that.

[@mj95b]

@@mezellenjohnson2753 They were definitely my two favorites!

[@stevenschmidt3464]

John said that him and Paul knew George was going to be a great songwriter. He had just started writing songs later than when John and Paul started. John saw that George was growing through the same hurdles that he and Paul did. Which is why he knew that George was going to catch up eventually.

[@paulbakerma61]

It always brings a smile to my face when I see you visit The Beatles because the variety of music is so diverse I anticipate surprise. I’d love to see you respond to Tomorrow Never Knows.

Oh HELL yeah. Now that would be amazing. I once made a mix tape that was nothing but that song, with the original version, and about 15 other artists and bands covering it. A whole hour of just that one song, and it wasn't too much. Nobody touches that song these days though, sadly.

[@paulbakerma61]

It should be said that George IS a GREAT and capable guitarist and it says something about his ego that he asked Eric to play guitar on a Beatle track. An example of being in service to the song and what it deserves.

[@lauce3998]

7:58 That's why George called Eric Clapton, he was the only one who could "make the guitar cry". It was the first time anyone had collaborated with the Beatles. You should react to Harrison's other wonder already (Something). Frank Sinatra said it was the best song of the last 50 years!

[@Dee-JayW]

Agreed…Clapton is my favourite artist..and the way his guitar weeps during the 2nd half of Layla makes it one of the greatest love songs written, IMO.

[@d.j.starling3559]

Now you should listen to the version of this song recorded at The Concert For George, a tribute concert held on the one-year anniversary of the day George died. In the original recording you reacted to here, Eric Clapton was playing lead guitar. George was humble & confident enough to know who could best make the guitar cry & he let EC shine. In the tribute concert, EC is again playing lead, & he outdoes himself!! My all-time favorite version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps is from The Concert For George. Paul & Ringo are also part of the band, as is George's easy-to-spot son. You'll love it!! While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Taken from Concert For George) - KZbin

[@TangoEliott]

The Beatles, for me, never disappointed. After George grew into a great composer in his own right and by the end of the Beatles he was Lennon/McCartney equal, composition wise. The Beatles as composers cannot be beat and in MY opinion there is only one partnership that is equal to them and that is Benny and Bjorn of ABBA, great admirers of L&M who influenced them so much that they followed them by trying to never remake a song. In other words, there was no She Loves You 2.0. They evolved. The Beatles inspired just about everyone.

[@simply_psi]

Possibly the greatest Beatles song of them all, which is sure saying something and definitely the top 10

*Harry and Lou (George's parents), were longtime family friends. Harry worked with my dad as a conductor on the buses, and my sister and me both went to Dovedale with George, his sister and both his brothers. I kept in touch with George and his brother (who was also called Harry after their dad), right up until a few weeks before George died at one of Paul's homes in America. It's weird reading about him now as a Beatle. I don't know why, it just is?*

[@Eowyn187]

Oh this song❣ my favorite Beatles tune. And with my man Clapton, the master. Don't think I've ever listened and not repeated it at least twice more. F*cking masterpiece!

[@micheleferrazzani638]

You really need to check out THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE. It was a fundraiser concert for George's charity "Material World Foundation" on the anniversary of his death. ERIC CLAPTON is the guitarist on this song and he organized this concert along with many friends, Olivia, George's wife, Dhani, George's son. Dhani also plays guitar in this concert and looks just like his Dad. YOU SAID YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG AGAIN...CHECK OUT THE VERSION ON THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE. You won't be disappointed. The energy was palpable. The musicians later said they felt George's presence in the room like he was guiding them.

[@patticrichton1135]

I think you must have listened to the version that was done for Cirque de Soliel's Las Vegas show "LOVE" using all the Beatles' music. George did an acoustic version originally before the one you are hearing now. The "LOVE" show had Giles Martin (George Martin's son, George was their producer during their entire career) rework, add, edit together several songs, for the LOVE show. On that the violins were added to Georges acoustic version. I guess I am the only one that really LOVES the acoustic AND the acoustic LOVE show version with the violins, almost MORE than how it was released on the WHITE album. Those 2 acoustic versions made ME weep cos they are SO BEAUTIFUL, PLUS in THIS version, they left out one of George's original lines from the acoustic which I think was the most beautiful line in the song....."I LOOK FROM THE WINGS AT THE PLAY YOU ARE STAGING, while my guitar gently weeps, AS I'M SITTING HERE DOING NOTHING BUT AGING....while my guitar gently weeps." It was the last line in the acoustic version. I WISH they had KEPT that line in the "electric" version you reacted to here. In the end it's NICE to have 3 versions of it, BOTH are great, but very different.

This is George with Clapton on lead, the rest of the Beatles didn't want to do the song till Clapton came in and did the lead and it would have been a big mistake on their part as this is one of the best George and them had done, George turned out to be a great writer and artist and ended up writing one of the biggest songs ever recorded by other artists, "Something".
