      They were playing as one. Even Ringo's Drumming was perfect for this song. Everything was perfectly played at just the right time. Ring is a under rated drummer. He's no Niel Peart, but he like John Bonhan is the perfect sound for the band. And you appreciate him more as you listen to his contribution to all of their songs.

      @@ChipEstrada Ringo, as you say is perfect for the band, he's one of those drummers that does what's right for the song, he's a truly underrated team player. He doesn't attempt to push himself into the limelight or show off, his instinct is perfect. He was always there as the songs developed in the studio, and I'm positive that what he added, as they honed a new number jamming things out, strongly helped shape all The Beatles songs. They would all have bounced of each other. Hopefully the upcoming 'Get back/Let it be' film will reveal even more of Ringo's input into the song writing process. I think he was taken for granted a lot of the time.

      Keith Jones. Yes the Beatles had many great songs. George Harrison didn’t write many songs but the few songs that he did write were really good. This is one of my favorite songs by George Harrison. I agree with you. This song is among the very best.

    I used to play piano/organ for wedding ceremonies, and one time I was playing Pachelbel's Canon in D (which is lovely but repetitive af) and I zoned out/forgot what I was playing and just as they got to the altar I was rounding out the ending of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (another Beatles/Harrison classic like this one). I didn't even know I'd done it until I saw the footage and heard myself do it.
    So I guess they didn't 'choose' a George Harrison/Beatles song for their wedding, but they got one anyway... :)
    PS Please do "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" soon btw! This story will be even funnier when you hear how sombrely it ends on an a minor chord, which is not the tone anybody wants 'set' when they arrive at the altar to face their beloved and make promises of hopefulness and joy. :)
