As lead guitarist for the Beatles, George Harrison provided the band with a lyrical style of playing in which every note mattered.Harrison was one of millions of young Britons inspired to take up the guitar by British skiffle king Lonnie Donegan's recording of "Rock Island Line." But he had more dedication than most, and with the encouragement of a slightly older school friend — Paul McCartney — he advanced quickly in his technique and command of the instrument. Harrison developed his style and technique slowly and painstakingly over the several years, learning everything he could from the records of Carl Perkins, Duane Eddy, Chet Atkins, Buddy Holly, and Eddie Cochran. By age 15, he was allowed to sit in with the Quarry Men, the Liverpool group founded by John Le More... (Submit New George Harrison Lyrics) (Submit New George Harrison Lyrics) Last song for one of the great songwriters | Reviewer: Mark Matulef ------ About the song Horse To Water performed by George Harrison Without a doubt, the song I listen to/view on YouTube the most is Sam Brown performing "Horse To Water" on the Concert for George (with Jools Holland, Jim Capaldi, Eric Clapton, and Tom Scott). George recorded the song not long before he succombed to illness (for Jools Holland). The lyric sums up George's interest in and struggle on behalf of the human as well as the eternal spirit - as the world around him is absorbed in self-indulgence and addiction. The tempo of the song is driving. The chorus is memorable. The three verses are complete stories in themselves. Please listen to, buy, watch, and play this song. He really is amazing. | Reviewer: Sara ------ About artist/band George Harrison George Harrison truly is one of the most amazing musicians ever. He has an amazing distinctive voice and definitely incredible on the guitar and the sitar. He was unique, he was quiet, he was incredible. No other musician can nor ever will be able to imitate him nor compare to him. He has captured my heart through music and through his life. All Those Years Ago | Reviewer: angelical99 ------ About the song All Those Years Ago performed by George Harrison I don't think this song was originally written "for" Ringo meaning as a tribute to him per se, but rather it was written for Ringo to record. I'm not sure if Lennon was truly an atheist. Twice in his song "Beautiful Boy" he says, "Before you go to sleep, say a little prayer." So I'm thinking he believed in some higher power. Great Song | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Here Comes The Moon performed by George Harrison This really is a great song. I just love the lyrics. Yeah, I thought about the 'new moon' thing too. Maybe..he was saying 'breath is always taken when it's new'..as in when it is a new moon its so dark and it makes us appreciate the moon even more for the times it's "out". And then maybe when he moves on to say 'enhance upon the clouds around it', he's jumping to the present time, as he's standing there looking at the full moon and appreciating the beauty.. OR - he was just confused! ha ha But still a great song! So Far Ahead of his time. A true genius | Reviewer: Trent ------ About the song Brainwashed performed by George Harrison I am a HUGE Beatles fan. And, like many others I have my favorites. But... I slowly find that even with my top two favorites John Lennon, and Paul McCartney. George is number 3. And, every time I hear something of his. I like it even more. Brainwashed by far is one of his best. The song itself is so catchy you could get brainwashed just by listening to it. LOL really, this song is not only a masterpiece, and a statement of George as not only a person. But, of spirituality. It is in someways a chilling reality to the world we live in. The album was released almost 8 years ago. And, the lyrics are more true now then then. George, and the other Beatles for that matter. Where not just some 4 guys who were teenage heart throbs, or a fad. The four young men were true artists, and brilliant spokesman of the Earth. love of geroge harrison's music | Reviewer: thomas p leach ------ About artist/band George Harrison With permission by publisher could I use part of this biography for a class project in my graphic design class. Not all or part but just to get the idea for this project. The music world lost and talented person in Geroge Harrison when he passed. the bass ot this song | Reviewer: daniel ------ About the song This Song performed by George Harrison Sorry George but I dont speak English, however let´s try! The bassline of "this song" is wonderful!!!!!! When I put "this song" in the stereo, cant stop to move my legs and my head!!! You wrote in Here comes the sun: "the smiles returning to their faces "´its the same feeling in "this song" He is the greatest guitar player in the world | Reviewer: Ardee ------ About artist/band George Harrison My family is a fan of Beatles. My dad, my mother, and my big brother are fans of Beatles. George Harrison is the most brilliant man if i can say so. Because he, i can play guitar well. He's my inspiration. And i think, George Harrison is the greatest guitar player in the world. More than Paul, John, etc. Because i am from Indonesia, so i will write this in Indonesian style. Wow George Harrison, kau adalah idolaku!! Motive for the song | Reviewer: Alan Fielding ------ About the song Heading For The Light performed by George Harrison In my opinion this is the very best track on the album and I wondered if it was a personal song about a girl or if it was a type of gospel song. Either way it's fabulous and when George died we lost a treasure. As Lennon once said, "George writes beautiful songs". He was right.

It was originally penned with different lyrics as a song for Ringo, then John was killed, so I wonder how much of it was changed and what the original content was. Catchy tune, fishy lyrics. a great track on 'all things must pass': hear me Lord | Reviewer: pete norris smith ------ About the song Hear Me Lord performed by George Harrison I've been listening to Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" double album since 1971 when it was cool to carry a copy of the 12" vinyl across the school yard at Sydney Boy's High on the way home. It was and still is a watershed.... his spiritual masterpiece. It wasn't until recently that I realized what a fantastic song "Hear Me Lord" is on the second disc. I always thought the first disc was brilliant and paid little attention to the second one. If you are like me, please give the second disc another chance, in particular, this song. The passion in George's voice is hard to compare. His humility brings me to tears every time I hear it. You can get a recording of it if you buy "somewhere in england" from 1981 | Reviewer: flemming olsen ------ About the song Baltimore Oriole performed by George Harrison Hi - I dont know if you found it after you posted this question last year - If you only want the song itself (Baltimore Oriole), You can get it at www.7digital.com for 0.73£ . Im a big fan of Harrison and can recomend most of his albums, if by any chance you like more than just one album I suggest you can get a recording of the album from which this song came. Its on George Harrisons LP/CD from 1981 called "Somewhere in England" which has some very good songs on it. It has been reissued recently (with a different cover and a few bonus tracks) as a part of an excellent box-set called "The Dark Horse Years" at 132 dollars, it includes almost all of his cds. You can order it via most good musicshops or go online and buy it there. Look at amazon.com they got the box set. kind regards - and enjoy the music. Flemming Filur Olsen, Copenhagen, Denmark Say Who Performed Tweeter???? | Reviewer: Doug ------ About the song Tweeter And The Monkey Man performed by George Harrison I think you'll find that Tweeter was performed by Bob Dylan with George Harrison and the rest of the Traveling Wilburys singing backup! Cheers Doug Still stupid after all these years | Reviewer: Myth Buster ------ About the song This Song performed by George Harrison To "This song is gear" - yes it is. And the lyrics are quite fun and clever. That said, try not to comment on the mechanics of music as it makes you look foolish. There are not "eight notes on the musical scale" - that is a incredibly ignorant statement. Unintentional or not, "My Sweet Lord" and "He's So Fine" sport the same refrain harmonically and melodically. That's why George lost the suit. Don't be ignorant. Nice melody | Reviewer: Ron T. ------ About the song The Lord Loves The One (That Loves The Lord) performed by George Harrison I haven't heard this song in many years but when I did hear it I thought it has a good melody. Sense of Humor and... | Reviewer: Brian in CA ------ About the song This Song performed by George Harrison ...as his friend Paul McCartney remarked on George's passing, "Someone who didn't suffer fools well". I miss him too...and Linda Mac and John...what joy they brought to my life. Hare Krishna body and soul | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Crackerbox Palace performed by George Harrison I watched the video of this song and for me Harrison tries to explain , by different ways both sides of the human race. and if it's so , I'm agree with that explanation , because we all inside our bodies all the things bad and good ones and we don't know when they appear. This Song is gear | Reviewer: doug ------ About the song This Song performed by George Harrison This song titled "This Song" shows George Harrison's utter dismay and contempt for the legal side of the music business. To think that "My Sweet Lord" is an infringement on "He's so Fine" is ludicrous, given the fact that there are only eight notes on the musical scale and that there are only a finite number of combinations in which they can be utilized. The video for "This Song" illustrates George's feeling of the court system that ruled against him in the action - they went so far as to penalize him even though they acknowledged that the similarity between the two songs was unintentional. More | Reviewer: Dave ------ About the song Hong Kong Blues performed by George Harrison This song was best known from the 1944 film "To Have and Have Not", loosely based on a book by Earnest Hemingway. It starred Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall (aged 19, yum) and Hoagy Charmicheal as bar piano man "Cricket". Hoagy performs on film.
