  • Something" is a single released by The Beatles in 1969, and featured on the album Abbey Road. It was the first song written by George Harrison to appear on the A-side of a Beatles single. It was one of the first Beatles singles to contain tracks already available on a long playing (LP) album, with both "Something" and "Come Together" having appeared on Abbey Road. "Something" was the only Harrison composition to top the American charts while he was a Beatle.
    John Lennon and Paul McCartney-the two principal songwriting members of the band-both praised "Something" as among the best songs Harrison had written. As well as critical acclaim, the single achieved commercial success, topping the Billboard charts in the United States, and entering the top 10 in the United Kingdom. The song's success continued after the breakup of The Beatles, when it was covered by over 150 artists including Elvis Presley, Shirley Bassey, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, James Brown, Julio Iglesias, Smokey Robinson, Joe Cocker becoming the second-most covered Beatles song after "Yesterday".[1]
    Lyrics :
    Something in the way she moves,
    Attracts me like no other lover.
    Something in the way she woos me.
    I don't want to leave her now,
    You know I believe in how.
    Somewhere in her smile she knows,
    That I don't need no other lover.
    Something in her style that shows me.
    I don't want to leave her now,
    You know I believe in how.
    You're asking me will my love grow,
    I don't know, I don't know.
    Stick around, and it may show,
    But I don't know, I don't know.
    You know I love that women of mine.
    And I need her all of the time.
    Know am I telling to you.
    That women..that women that make me blue.
    Something in the way she knows,
    And all I have to do is think of her.
    Something in the things she shows me.
    I don't want to leave her now.
    You know I believe and how.
    Enjoy and comment :)

    I think McCartney misses his friends very much.

      Yes he does =( , two days ago I saw him here in Chile , poor Paul could barely sing Here Today (for Lennon) i'm sure he was weeping inside.

      I was watching an interview from 1988, George Harrison said he didn’t really know Paul. He said that for about 10 years, they didn’t really communicate. I’m sure they got closer during the last few years of George’s life. Life is funny like that.... age does that to you.

    Both John and Paul praised George's songwriting brilliance on this song. That must have been the ultimate compliment George ever received as a songwriter...when his two fellow Beatles declared "Something" better than their own tunes on the ABBEY ROAD album.

    For me, Paul performing George's song and opening with the Ukulele is the epitome of the Beatles' love for one another.
    After all of their great hits and number one best sellers, this one song with it's earnest declaration of love is the one that always brings a tear to my eye. Not out of sadness, but out of appreciation for the beauty and emotion they always shared with us.

  • @chibichibi9981
    @chibichibi9981 Před 13 lety +37

    Everything about this performance is so sweet and beautiful. The fact that Paul's playing the ukulele that George gave him, the fact that Olivia and Yoko are there, the fact that the guitar solo is played exactly how it was written... so many little things to it. Paul and George were brothers despite how things seemed between them at times. ♥

    I agree with you guys about the part where the audience joins in. I start crying because it's so emotional. I was lucky enough to see him live 5 times. But when he did this beautiful tribute to George at Wrigley Field in Chicago, OMG! I was in tears when the audience just joins in the words "I don't know Oh I don't know!" Such a beautiful moment. I hope Sir Paul stays with us for a long time. He is a breath of fresh air!

    Saw him in concert on Monday, Nov 22nd, one of the greatest experiences ever. Singing this song brought tears to half the audience, fantastic

    The solo is easy to play, yet it is incredibly hard to mimic George’s pace and playing style. Plus the “bend” on the 12th fret is actually a release and almost everyone messes that up.

      Yes it's very obvious if someone missed that one yet it's hard to imitate George's original play

      The solo is full of ‘pre-bends’. It’s George’s style.

    I've loved this song since the first time I've heard it... But this version is really emotional! From the greatest simplicity of the little ukulele to the unwaited music explosion befor the solo.... LOVE PAUL! LOVE GEORGE! ♥
