George: **does literally nothing**
His hair: ⬆️↗️➡️↘️⬇️↙️⬅️↖️↩️↪️🔃↪️↘️⬆️↕️🔃⤵️
Majestic as fuck.
His hair has muscles of its own
Here there and everywhere
Hadouken!!
George might have had the most majestic hair ever.
You got that right. No other Beatle changed their hairstyle (and facial hair) more than George. He carried all those styles off beautifully. I think his hair was very easy to work with--a hair stylist's delight.
My hair looked like this once. I couldn't pull it off though. The result of a horrible perm, lol.
piggyjo , my hair is currently in that " George-Style " . Except I didn't perm it lol, just cut it and used a curling iron
he had some pretty damn good hair
He got more handsome as he aged as well.

George's perfect answer to the stupidity of copyright litigation that he had to deal with, just like "Silly love songs" was Paul's perfect answer to all the critique of his lyrics.
turquisestones Plus, his musical response was to borrow from two sound alike songs and even call them out by name. Very clever.
He was told before he released My Sweet Lord that it was the same as He's So Fine. He didn't care. Foolish. Sometimes you have to remember you ARE living in the material world
@@anthonypicco7811 Well, "the same" could be applied to many many songs, possibly to 70% of all the rock songs from the 50s and very early 60s. The difference here is that George had deep pockets and My Sweet Lord was a beloved mega hit.
@@anthonypicco7811 Very little work is totally original, most art copies from one person or another, and that is a good thing, thats how you get new art. Copyright is a silly thing that stands in the way of that.
A lot of Shakespeare plays would not have survived modern copyright laws, think about that.
@@emperorpicard6474 So you are in favor of stealing? Back in the 1800s, many authors discovered their books reprinted without their knowledge, and they earned NO money from those copies sold. That book might have taken a year of their life, involved emotions and struggles and re-writes until it was perfect, but they have NO legal ownership? How are they supposed to earn a living, or support themselves and their families? Will we have a gov't program to feed, house and give medical care to artists and writers and musicians for free? (I think we all should have that, but we are not yet a socialist world.)
Should we also get rid of patents? Just because you come up with a good idea for a product, you should have NO control over its marketing, or any ability to stop someone from producing the same product and giving you NO money for it? Being "inspired" by another work is one thing. Note for note or word for word is, in my eyes, thievery. Sure, West Side Story was inspired by Romeo & Juliet, but it was not an exact copy. That is a big difference.
I understand your ideas. I understand we all inspire each other, but as long as the world is set up economically the way it is, copyright & patents are the only solutions to assure creative types get paid.
I always liked George's sense of humor
I've never heard this song before, but I know the story behind the lyrics, George Harrison was an absolute legend, this entire song was a middle finger towards the copyright lawsuit from My Sweet Lord, and he wrote a song about how he felt about it. Absolute gold, even at the end of 2020! We miss u George!!
I bet George would have shit himself if someone stole his music... it's a two-way street and I was disappointed in Harrison's attitude toward other musicians.

0:14 me walking into the classroom late for a test I didn't study for
Literally
I often wonder if George naturally sang out of the right corner of his mouth or if he just developed it as a habit from sharing the mic with Paul
Bronwyn J. McCartney damn i never thought about that! something to think about, really!
He had a deformation in his tooth.
@@jaydenwhitlen1489 i always thought it was because he teeth were super sharp
really! LOL
@siddhesh patankar what her comment or the video. The comment had me dying LOL
It's funny when you think about it, George was purportedly and seemingly super shy and naturally quiet/reserved etc. but likely extremely comfortable in front of cameras because of his profile. It shows in his videos and interviews anyway. I can't think of too many other well known people with those traits.
Harrison Ford describes himself that way …. and he’s pretty good in front of the camera
There are loads of celebrities that are introverted/reserved but are extremely comfortable in front of an audience/camera. Johnny Carson was a fine example and he often talked about this with his guests who felt the same way.
Buster Keaton was very shy, a bit awkward, & actually avoided crowds but not onstage or in front of or behind the camera where he was a brilliant director & gorgeous clown in the 1920s
Actually while he didn't speak as much on interviews because the other Beatles took up the spot. But Paul McCartney said that if you did anything he would go on the biggest rant. He was quiet on interviews because of Paul and John but in person he was very talkative
Michael Jackson was shy, but when he was onstage performing he once said he felt at home.
George always had a good sense of humor! Miss this man….R.I.P. George.
How was your day?
*Paul*: I was signing up some papers over at Apple Corp and preparing a European tour
*Ringo*: I lunched with my agent and went to an interview with Johnny Carson
*John*: I recorded a few songs with Harry Nilson and wrote the arrangements for a song.
*George*: I went to a court and shot something with midgets, clowns, Rolling Stones in drag and girls dancing on a table.
wow--as funny as this video is your reply is equally hilarious!
Agreed LOL! @@JamesSaintRave
nuttywolfie , This is so funny. We must always remember, Gorgeous George was the "Quiet" Beatle. Yeah right! I love him and have for 54 years and miss his crazy sense of humor. 💛💗❤️💜💙
Shoot, that WAS Ron Wood in drag.
George,the "fun" Beatle.✌😍😁
George the type of guy to laugh in your face by writing a song , about a lawsuit. 🤣
Yeah "Sue Me Sue You Blues!" The best x Beatle & This Song was aimed at "Faul"!🤷♀️
@@itchiray This Song was written due to George's lawsuit problem with My Sweet Lord, being similar to ''He's So Fine''.
You can see a lot of references to that problem on the lyrics, such as ''anyone's copyright'', ''This song is in E'', ''has nothing bright about it''.
itchiray Oh wonderful,
One of those “people” who believe in the Paul’s dead thing.
*joHn BeaT wiFe, iT MuSt MeAN pAuLs DEaD*
Hes so fine , my sweet lord, I like pie . Any 3 syllable words work
@@IjigenTheHand "Bright" being the name of the Shirelles' music publishing company, of course.
One of the first music videos, and still the best. It's got it all: drag queens, saxophones, and a Beatle!
Even count Dracula
And one of the drag queens is Ronnie Wood from The Rolling Stones!
A member of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and The Who!
@@shummish that's Keith Moon!
Strawberry Fields Forever is the first music video.
It's been 20 years, George. You are still missed.
You may have lost the lawsuit george but you won the fight with THIS SONG.
¡ Yeb Bush ! That’s a rather bogus opinion innit
@¡ Yeb Bush ! Dude. You've commented this on like 5 other George Harrison songs. Chill.
¡ Yeb Bush ! You have a real grudge against George, don’t you? I’ve seen your comments on several other of George’s songs, and you either hate him for whatever reason, or are a bot.
@@vivgreen6872 XD this got me. Dude must have nothing going on, I s'pose
¡ Yeb Bush ! This Bot, there’s nothing special about it...this bot pretends it’s a ‘HE’...this bot trolls you and me. 🎸🎼🎹
Crackerbox Palace and This Song are true classics with excellent videos.
Agreed, they're both terrific songs and vids.
Just discovered these two classics
Of course they're excellent, they're directed by Eric Idle!
Ding Dong is a great video.
That along with Faster, I Got My Mind Set On You, This’s Love and Any Road.
I’m so glad I got to live the same era as the Beatles and their solo careers. It’s been magical.
Once George flew into the freedom of his own abilities, his humor came out and cracked our eggs wide open.
Oh shit, George Harrison started the "E" meme
alright it wasn’t just me who realized that
That crossed my mind as well.
He just said this song is in the key of E. That's all.
H3h3 i don't get it
What time?
The breakup of the Beatles really allowed us to see what's going on in George's mind at all times
i'm betting no one expected George as the one with the silly music videos
@@Adamdidit The best is the George Harrison "Pirate Song" from Rutland Weekend Television in 1975.
_i rlly love it hahah xD_

I'm sure they all had interesting minds but hell old George boy somehow sticks out
I dont know what it is about his voice, but to me, to my ears it is pure bliss !!!
george’s voice was awesome!
The Monty Python-ness of it is just too funny! He really made a statement with This Song! I miss him and his light. #PeaceAndLove!
After George lost his case with MY SWEET LORD as he had to pay $700,000 (as I remember) to the writers of HE'S SO FINE for having essentially the same melody and chord progression he wrote THIS SONG! So he made a negative a positive over night and moved on! haha That's George for ya!
Five years after this song was released, Harrison actually bought out Bright Tunes, and paid for it the same amount of $587,000 that Allen Klein had initially paid for the company.
"This TUNE has nothing BRIGHT about it..."
Even though George won the day, the fact Klein bought the company that was suing George is a special kind of nasty.
Eric Andrews luckily it backfired on him. He only got back what he paid for Bright Tunes, instead of the 1.6 million they could have gotten
he LOST?!
What a brilliant man George was.
CHlEFFIN Yes!☺❤
@¡ Yeb Bush ! You tell em' Yeb!
I agree 1,000%. I think if the Beatles stayed together, he would've been dictating how things should run.. Well, after he quit The Beatles and came back,
they say John and Paul treated much differently. They respected him more. George will always be brilliant! Even up in Heaven!!!!!!!!!➕⛪
I love how George is walking down the hallway at the beginning of the video. Cracks me up every time.
The steno lady hammering out on the machine like a piano was great. 0:55
She reminds me Linda McCartney
My aunt looks like George Harrison.
Charlie Ladd I'm sorry.
is she single?

This song is like a time capsule back to 1976. This song is for you and (for me).
One thing I know!!! George is the best among the Beatles. His harmonies and solos are heavenly!!!!
Yes he´s definitely top four.
Lennon and McCartney were pure musical geniuses. But if I had to listen one Beatles solo music all day, I would WAY prefer to listen to George.
@@725jenks CRackerJaCK PAlacE 🎶
😂@@edmunddonnelly3881
that walk at the start was so adorable. like a lil baby throwing a silly tantrum. you are missed George.
It’s only taken 55 years but George is now officially my favourite Beatle!
Paul is my fave but George has certainly been testing my loyalty!!!
@@wynnie_margeaux It's close between George and John for me
John always first, but then very closely followed by George.
Geoge's guitar solo in "I Saw Her Standing There" sealed the deal for me.
For me its always been George from day one. "The Quiet Beatle." A brilliant song writer's mind!
I have not seen this video in decades but I’ve never forgotten it. Incredibly clever tune in response to the “My Sweet Lord” lawsuit (despicable). I thin I first saw it on SNL in the late 70’s(?) love it love it. Love it!
Exactly!!!
Shown on Saturday Night Live, November 1976 when George was the musical guest.
His hair, his smile... Its too much beauty
This Song was George's hilarious response to that silly Lawsuit.
along with that other silly lawsuit that gave us "Sue Me Sue You Blues", :)
The question is what will happen when I upload my cover of this song tomorrow.
@@conniethesconnie 😴😴😴😴
George is probably the definition of perfection😍
No doubt about it he is perfect from the inside and outside
Though he'd sneer and say, "What a load of crap!" if someone told him that.
The king Midas of songwriters
i miss him :((((
George Harrison walking like that in 0:05 has me dying!😂
This song...is pure fun, and another example of the late George's genius. Rest In Peace Mr. Harrison.
George also directed the video.
Remember this Song!!
George’s Response to Him losing Court Case
My Sweet Lord
My Sweet Lord is a BOP, I love that song so much
Humor had to be his answer
Grete Ringgaard he saved Monty Python twice! Once petitioned the BBC to keep it on and personally financed Life of Brian. He makes a cameo. Look it up.
And marijuana.
@@lindsayheim-nugent2567 he re-mortgaged his house for Life of Brian, my sweet Lord, please bless Lord Harrison.
George was the most talented performer of the Fab 4! All the features of a true pop star !
No he wasn’t…it was a 4-Way tie
@@cbennett196631 Oh sure he was! He's so relaxed, having the best humorous attitude that really shows on his solo videos.
John was too stiff and stone-faced to reach that level.
Of all the Beatles' solo work, George always had the best videos, right until the end.
Anyone else miss George's fangs? I found them really attractive. He's still drop dead gorgeous though
Keith Moon had the fangs(vampire) in this.
His smile 🥰
I miss more than just his fangs, I miss the legend himself
brackets
He’s also still drop dead
Humor had to be his answer
The Best Beatle!
What a brilliant man George was.
I love the beatles. So glad i grew up in that era. George is sorely missed as is john.
yes, humor, and love and light, he shined like the sun! good man, blessed are his wife, and family and true friends, to have been in his life.
Just remember that at one point in his life, he looked like this and had this voice.
wonderful.
2:39 I like how George is like "Check out this next part man"
Isn't that the same fair isle jumper / vest as Paul McCartney's Waterfall clip?
Hey leo surprised to see you here
It definitely looks real similar
George plagiarised that jumper ;-)
@@dabble778 i wonder who the old ladies in the court room were lamo
they're very similar but not the same.
Rest in peace, George, thanks for all the great music, humor and memories with and without the Beatles! I miss George!
I agree, so talented
Today is the 21st anniversary of his passing. November 29, 2022. 😢
His voice makes me want to cry. Nostalgia maybe. How beautiful he sang!
getting 80 years old this day and the world is missing him forever!
One of George Harrison's nicknames should be the "Seventh Python".
He produced it
Yeah, since he's the reason Life of Brian exists.
I think he was......didnt one of the pythons have their wedding on the grounds at friar park(George's castle)?
@@rosecrow1545 i forgot about that. george is the 7th python.

George being silly makes me smile
Sir George Harrison: underrated genius, he died too young!😢
Yeah famously underrated George Harrison....
This world really don’t deserve a man like George he’s too pure
George's wit was awesome and on full display in this song! Such an underrated album, too. Miss you George.
I love these clips, there is nothing obscene or violent. Just a bunch of crazy people who had a great time. How come I only discovered them today?
I love George. This is a poorer world without him. Forever loved never forgotten 🙏
Legendary Drummer Jim Keltner as the Gavel Thumping Judge. Great Video from George
George, inmortal.
The Best Beatle!
yeah ! he didn't need those other 3 at all !
Come on... This is not a competition. The Beatles was 3 genius and one drummer. That is all.
and a genius drummer!!!
let's throw you in with 3 geniuses and see if you can keep up and thrive
yeeeeaaa
Happy 80th birthday George....you are so missed : (
i missed this date... yes he is missing in this bloody world of ignorants
The Judge is Jim Keltner. Drummer for Traveling Wilburys, Little Village, Eric Clapton, Joe Cocker, Ry Cooder, Delaney & Bonnie, Bob Dylan, Carly Simon, Ringo Starr, Gabor Szabo, George Harrison, John Lennon, Steve Miller Band, Harry Nilsson, Neil Diamond
Drummer for Ringo Starr? Isn't that like being Elton Johns piano player?
@@conniethesconnie probably for the all starr band
0:22 Note the California flag. This was shot one night at the LA Superior Court.
1:35 Yep, that's Ronnie Wood from the Rolling Stones, dressed in drag as a Python character.
2:04 Olivia Harrison in the back with a headband.
The first shot at the beginning is the LA County Courthouse. I noticed this, because I had that same shot in a student film I shot roughly 17 years after seeing this video on SNL as a kid. When I rediscovered this video on RUclips a couple years ago, I noticed the similarity -- leaving me to wonder if I'd subconsciously plagiarized a shot from a video about subconscious plagiarism! (Only one shot in common, your honor, no singing lawyers, I swear!)
The most British courtroom in all of Los Angeles.
The judge is Jim Keltner, a longtime drummer for George and other musical luminaries. I believe he also did session work for the Traveling Wilburys.
@@MrJunkieBrewster He did...Jim is my cousin....
@@egatlin070254 Lucky you, I'm a big fan of him. Is he as good a person as he seems? Greet him from a stranger from spain.
I love George Harrison's music to bits.
That cop with the guitar makes me laugh every damn time. God bless George and his sense of humor! Rest in peace, pal...you will always be right here in my heart.
I think every court room in America should have a sax trio at the ready. A trial involving a big name defendant could only benefit from the sound of a bari sax.
As George would defy, he wrote this to stick it in their eye! Love ❤️ him
George looks like a mystical combination of Weird Al and Russel Brand. I love him
If I'm not mistaken, the cop was Brian Wilson of The Beach boys. This video was also part of an episode of Saturday night live from 1976, Brian Wilson was the musical guest for the following week, they were at the same place at the same time.

my fav beatle ever , i loved them all but george was special
My favorite too.
The stupidity of copyright. It gets in the way - all the time. Where the f--- do people think songs come from? The ether? Classical, blues. rock, everything comes out of a tradition. Good on G. Harrison for speaking the truth about it.
It's all about greed. No one should own any part of the 12 musical notes that man has discovered and we should be able to put them in any sequence we wish!
You might feel different if you wrote a melody that someone used in their song
Are you stupid? One thing is coming from somewhere else and another thing is copying your exact same idea!
@@billyboy6028 jerk!

Could be "Sugar Pie Honey Bunch" --- No, sounds more like "Rescue Me"!
A song so catchy that most people don't even listen to the lyrics - but they should!
"This song ain't bad or good". You said it, George . . .
very meaningful,,,good lyrics for a fucking unforgetabble generick "rock song",,,you can see /hear in plain sight that the songs are given to him,,,and they did a dirty number on him with the sweet lord thing , sort of,,
George was the most talented, and the most missed...
Little darling,i love these words....they remind me the words the man i love,say to me when we speak❤
George was very big on self-referential lyrics. First “Only a Northern Song”, then “This Song”. He had a great sense of humor.
This video was on TV before MTV was. It got shown on an early episode of Saturday Night Live.
He is...literally the most beautiful thing I've ever laid eyes on
A song is a means to Express one's emotions and feelings towards the world rather than adding auto-tune and doing stupid naked moves infront of camera. "This Song " beautifully portrays what George felt while in court during copyright trial. Every corner of this room and every line of it expresses all the emotions of the writer(George).❤
This aired on the Beatles reunion episode of Saturday Night Live in November of 1976. I had only seen this video with the SNL audience laughing in the background. Thanks so much for posting this clean copy!
You know during the reruns of SNL when George was on, they didn't play this song I guess because it was in litigation. They played Cracker box Palace
@@jameshoran8 The original airing of the episode ran both songs. In the reruns where they cut the episode from 90 minutes down to 60 minutes, they always cut one of the songs by the musical guest. "Cracker Box Palace" was the first song, and actually charted, which is why they kept that one.
Voice mail from Ronny Woods to Mick Jagger. "Hey Mick, I'm going to be doing a video for the George Harrison tune. You'll see me. I am the one in drag at 1:35. And by the way, Mick we couldn't get Charlie to be the judge, so we got Keltner."
The way his hair bounced in the beginning made me smile UwU 💖💖💖💖💖💖
I don’t know how I would have got through this virus without RUclips
I just love Harrison’s style of music. He defines the Beatles style in a big way!
"THIS SONG, is a very good Song! R.I.P. George Harrison!
George had the best solo discography out of all of the Beatles imo
Consistency. He always issued quality and craftsmanship and had people working with him who wanted to give their best to him. It shows. Even on things like Somewhere in England and Gone Troppo, when he was tired of the machine.
Facts
@@DrTomoculus I have GoneTroppo and it's not a bad album, but it's not as good as All Things Must Pass or Thirty-Three and 1/3.
