Way too much filler. It could have been a great single album. Did we really need two versions of "Isn't it a Pity?" Or that half-baked third disk of jamming?
@@OroborusFMA Luckily, most people disagree with you. Not a bad song on this album. The Apple Jam part is ok but most people consider it a double album.
One of George Harrison's quotes when asked about the names of the Lord & God he used in his lyrics of this song, was “It does not matter what you call Him, just call Him” That quote helped me ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Another Quote, Spirituality does not come from one specific religion, it comes from the search within ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
My fav George song is under the Beatles and it is Here Comes the Sun. In 1969 England had the darkest longest winter and George was inspired to write it when spring finally broke that year.
@@lukebicknell7702 not a Beatles song. This was after the Beatles broke up. George was the first former Beatle to have a number one song after the break up.
3 friends and I did a pom-pom routine to this when I was in the seventh grade, so every time I hear this song it brings back those memories, we weren't cheerleaders, just pom-pom girls but we had a load of fun doing this routine to this song!
I am SO fortunate to have grown up to witness Beatlemania and all that it gave to me. George Harrison ...my teacher and idol my whole life... and beyond.
George was definitely special. Even though I'm a drummer and Ringo is a hero of mine. George is my favorite Beatle. As a young kid I had no idea which Beatle wrote which song. When I finally started to find out who wrote what. I found out my favorite tunes were written by George.
@@MsAppassionata like me I like Beatles songs like Strawberry, Hey Jude, Eleanor Rigby, Penny Lane, Hi Darling, Fool on the Hills, Long and Winding Road, in My Life, Let it Be and many more songs from McCartney Lennon. But when asked what The Beatles song is my favorite and in my opinion is the best: my answer is SOMETHING .... which is George Harrison's song.
Love it! In the early 1980's I was hanging with some Krishna's and they told me that anyone who said the Hare Krishna mantra, which is throughout this song, was guaranteed entrance into Krishna heaven. So they thought this song was great. My favorite Harrison songs are Give me Love and What is Life. Hope you get a chance to listen to them.
4 teenagers became a band. 4teenagers grew up fast. 4 teenagers became adults. 4 adults got tired of all they accomplished in a decade . Simple reason why they broke up . 4 adults wanted to be themselves again.
"Beware of Darkness" absolutely blows this song away in my opinion. It's powerful yet soothing, and has calmed me down in many occasions. Sometimes you need a song like that. It's my favorite.
My favorite George song is definitely “While my guitar gently weeps” but he wrote so many great songs. The Beatles were broken up over just growing apart due to frictions within the music. Something as big as the Beatles could only last so long but they Will live on forever.
I love All Things MUST Pass. George wrote this song for his Dad after his mum passed away to help him with his grief on losing his wife...and George's mum. So special and soothing in a sad way.
George is known to have pondered the meaning of life by saying....."I remember thinking I just want more. This isn't it. Fame is not the goal. Money is not the goal. To be able to know how to get peace of mind, how to be happy, is something you don't just stumble across. You've got to search for it."
Yup. George figured it out. Knowledgeable Truth through Life Experience is 1 key to happiness. Truth has pre-existed our conscious acknowledgement of; it. The material world is only one part of what we think is perceived as reality.
There was a lot of speculation that Yoko Ono was responsible for the breakup of The Beatles. However they have said that the reason that they broke up was because they were growing apart as artists, and as people. as each of them was married, some of them with children, at the time that they broke up. They needed to break up when they , before they hated each other forever. My favorite George Harrison song is Within You Without You. It is off of the Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album. George Harrison learned to play the sitar, on their infamous trip to India. He infiltrated it into a few of their songs after that. But I love that one best. Lyrics are amazing on that song.
A lot of things contributed to the breakup. The death of Brian Epstein. A new manager. Yoko Ono's constant presence and John Lennon's drug use. Creative differences also was said to play a major role. I was very saddened by their break up but all went on to create their own legacy.❤️
I think that people underestimate the importance of Brian Epstein. He was the glue that held them all together. They slowly began to drift apart after his death.
Not to mention John, George and Ringo wanted Allen Klein as their new manager, whereas Paul wanted Linda's father and brother to manage the Beatles affairs.
George was the quiet Beatle. Throughout my life I’ve loved and revered the Beatles collectively and individually. I was born in fall of ‘65 and remember new songs of the Beatles on the radio hearing for the first time! Ringo is the reason I play drums to this day. Paul always had my interest and teamed with John was unstoppable. But George I didn’t understand when I was a kid. In my late twenties is when I began to understand George and his writing. Since then George has remained my favorite Beatle though I truly love them all and wish Ringo and Paul continuing healthy lives. I saw Paul last spring for the Got Back tour. Last summer turned 80 and he played with no breaks FOR THREE BLOODY HOURS…NON STOP!!! Ringo with his All Starr Band does the same! Respect! Peace and Love!
Your optimism and upbeat personality combined with your appreciation for the music you react to, always makes my day better. Thanks for this reaction; I agree that George was a very special person, and left quite a legacy that will live on hopefully forever. ❤️🙏❤️
This was George's first single after the Beatles broke up. Huge #1 hit. There's another song on this album worth hearing called "What Is Life" that was released as the follow-up single. You might also want to check out George's song "Give Me Love, Give Me Peace On Earth." I think it was on that same album, if memory serves. By the way, if you want to hear a pure fire rendition of this song (My Sweet Lord), check out Billy Preston singing it at "The Concert for George" (after he died, where a ton of music superstars gathered to sing a bunch of George Harrison songs as a tribute to him). Billy Preston was known as "the 5th Beatle." Also performing on the song were Eric Clapton, Jeff Lynne (of ELO), Dhani Harrison (pronounced "Danny," George's son...who looks just like his dad), Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney (the closest to a Beatles reunion we ever got), and others. ruclips.net/video/1EORbL8N-R8/видео.html
You could drop the needle on just about any track on the first 2 records of "All Things Must Pass" and find a great song. I still say "Isn't It A Pity (version 1)" is probably his greatest recording. Especially when you consider he'd written it when he was about 23 years old. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.
George was very spiritual. This song is an anthem to Hare Krishna. My Sweet Lord is from George's first album post Beatles, called All Things Must Pass. This DOUBLE album is a masterpiece. It explores George's spirituality where there was no room to do so within the Beatles. George's second solo album, Living in the Material World is almost as good and it explores his spirituality even more.
This is one of the most beautifully earnest spiritual songs ever. "What Is Life", "Wah-Wah", and "Let It Down" off this same album are amazing. I also strongly encourage you to listen to "Love You To" and "Within You Without You" by The Beatles; two George Harrison compositions that really exemplified his spirituality and comfort with eastern instruments and sounds.
Not sure if anyone mentioned that he was sued (and lost) a copyright infringement case over this song being lifted from "He's So Fine". He's still one of my favorites.
I adore the whole ALL THINGS MUST PASS album and bought it when it first came out. I used to play the title song each morning for awhile after my mother died. I love an obscure song of George’s called MISS O’DELL. He flubs a line and gets overcome with the giggles. He wrote it for a close friend. He kept waiting for her to come visit him while he was in town but she kept putting him off, and when she did come see him he told her he’d written it when suffering from boredom.
This is such a beautiful song, George Harrison was an amazing musician. Check him out with the band The Traveling Wilburys, it was a super group made up of Harrison, Roy Orbison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne.
Thank you for putting the spotlight on George! His strength (aside from playing incredible guitar) is that he's so honest and sincere in his music. And, yes, he's a very spiritual guy, so he touched on that subject a lot in his solo career. For more solo George, try, "Isn't It a Pity" or "All Things Must Pass." Those are really deep, moving songs.
Thank you so much for doing this becuase George is my musical inspiration. He has written my favourite Beatles songs and My Sweet Lord is an example of how good George is independent of John and Paul. Please react to I Me Mine by the Beatles, George wrote it!
Happy Birthday, Baby George. 25/02/1943 The quiet, dark and mysterious Beatle. Or was he? At one of The Beatles' first recording sessions with George Martin, they were asked by George Martin " Is there anything you don't like?" and quick as a flash George Harrison said "Well for one thing I don't like your tie!"
George Harrison was the first Beatles to have a solo no 1 album: "All Things Must Pass". He was an extraordinary artist. The reason The Beatles split up was irresistible force paradox. ie: John and Paul's conflicting ego (and genius). My favourite George Harrison's songs? This, and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "Here Comes the Sun".
I love this song so much makes me cry brings me back memory of someone who passed away and was really important in my life. Love your reactions and great taste of music you have will be checking out more of your reactions.
One of my favorite songs by the Beatles and George in particular is "It's All Too Much," from the Yellow Submarine movie and soundtrack album--one of the most joyful (and psychedelic) songs I know.
He had a Middle Eastern/India religion that he discovered later in his life and he devoted himself to it, heart and soul. George was very special and was the heart of the Beatles to me.
When you want to know perfect love, there is only One. Love is Spirit is Life. Everyone will fail you. As humans, that is inevitable. God's love shines, bursts forth from within when your heart longs to be loved, to know love. George enunciated a beautiful and perfect prayer in this song, a masterpiece, a profound blessing.
I love George so much! My favorite Beatle! (John was second) George actually was the first Beatle to quit, (in 1968) but came back two weeks later. (see the movie Get Back) He was just tired of his work being pushed aside on Beatle albums, just getting one or two max. (He did get three songs on Revolver) But by 1970, The Beatles had been together fro ten years, and they were all in their late 20's ready to branch out and create their own magic. George had so much music written at the time of the break up, it became his 3 album masterpiece "All Things Must Pass" (Which My Sweet Lord is from) Just Perfection. And George's voice? gentle and smooth, but strong and sometimes rough too. His voice can be so soothing, and his spirituality surrounds you with warmth. I have so many favorites, but What is Life?, Give Me Love-Give me Peace on Earth, The Art of Dying, Here Comes the Sun, and Something, of course. He had an amazing life, but never forgot where he came from. Gone too soon, but loved forever. Thanks for you fun review and many happy listening s to all new music to you!
I remember learning that the Beatles had broken up when I was about 6 years old. They'd been broken up for a couple of years and I felt like I'd been punched in the stomach, I felt genuine childhood grief. WHY??? They sound like such great friends? They get along, they are funny! What happened??? I asked my mom through sobs and SHE said, it was because they grew up. The Beatles was for kids. It was for people falling in love, not for people who were married and had all kinds of life or death responsibilities involving all these complex social and legal relationships. It was just too complicated. They had to go off and become individual adults with wives and kids. Another take on their breakup is that they never really broke up. On the late Beatles albums they were each writing their own songs. It was like a compilation of solo projects. Then when they did solo projects they constantly collaborated with each other. But there was a magic to the Beatles being all together at once. The Saturday Night Live where Loren Greene (joke, Paul McCartney would get it) the director ;-) of SNL offers the Beatles a 1000$ if they do a reunion on SNL. That prospect really struck a chord with a lot of people, and again when it was learned that it almost happened.
The Beatles broke up because they grew up. They started off as young kids trying to find themselves; and they did, and that was it. Comes time to fly the coop and do your own thing eventually - they did it right and their timing was perfect. They were the 60's.
The "4 headed' creative magical machine was getting tired of being a single entity and was morphing into 4 individuals. They left on a magical mystical high never to be duplicated again
Since this is Harrison's big single right after going solo, you might want to try Lennon's and McCartney's equivalents: "Instant Karma!" and "Maybe I'm Amazed". Two utterly incredible songs.
My favorite George Harrison song is "Here Comes The Sun" from Abbey Road, but you ought to check out The Beatles "Do You Want To Know A Secret" from 1963 for an example of the maturity of his earlier song writing. "My Sweet Lord" is a total vibe. One of my earliest musical memories involves hearing it on the radio at the ice cream shop my parents took me too after church when I was very young and it was top of the pops. Dig the way the bass and drums sort of sneak up on the song half way through, expanding the overall sound in a way that gives support to the backup vocals while letting the whole tune breathe.
AND the video for it.....and RINGO is in it, and watch for Phil Collins walk by carrying one of Lennon's albums under his arm, Paul & Ringo did backing vocals. ruclips.net/video/AVu6nPTVbBQ/видео.html
Fantastic song we all know that george seach god in this beatlemania time and he find he his peace in india pholosophie ,this is my george favorite solo song🙏

RIP you musical genius, I pray the Lord answered your prayers. Gone way too soon.
The entire All Things Must Pass is a great album.
Way too much filler. It could have been a great single album. Did we really need two versions of "Isn't it a Pity?" Or that half-baked third disk of jamming?
3/4 of it is great.
@@OroborusFMA Luckily, most people disagree with you. Not a bad song on this album. The Apple Jam part is ok but most people consider it a double album.

Underrated to the max

George Harrison was so spiritual. My favorites by him are What Is Life, Beware of Darkness, Isn't It A Pity and Just For Today. What a talent!
Beware of Darkness,
If Not For You as well.. Just a beautiful album
What Is Life, I Don't Want to do It, Art of Dying. ❤
I agree all bops you should check out it's all to much by him soo good
My fav George song is under the Beatles and it is Here Comes the Sun. In 1969 England had the darkest longest winter and George was inspired to write it when spring finally broke that year.
George Harrison was a spiritual, religious, and peaceful man rip a legend
I think you’d enjoy “I me mine”. A George song from the Beatles days
One of my favourite songs by The Beatles
@@lukebicknell7702 me too Luke!
My fave song as well ✌🏻😊
@@lukebicknell7702 not a Beatles song. This was after the Beatles broke up. George was the first former Beatle to have a number one song after the break up.

Well you don't love many songs by the Beatles then. 90 percent of the catalogue was written by Lennon or McCartney.
He didn’t say that he didn’t like Lennon/McCartney songs. He said that George was his favorite.
@@MsAppassionata
like me
I like Beatles songs like Strawberry, Hey Jude, Eleanor Rigby, Penny Lane, Hi Darling, Fool on the Hills, Long and Winding Road, in My Life, Let it Be and many more songs from McCartney Lennon.
But when asked what The Beatles song is my favorite and in my opinion is the best:
my answer is SOMETHING .... which is George Harrison's song.
George was 26 years old when the Beatles broke up. It blows my mind that a guy that young had already given so much wisdom to us.
Actually I think he was 27 since they broke up on April 10 and he was born on February 25th
Love it! In the early 1980's I was hanging with some Krishna's and they told me that anyone who said the Hare Krishna mantra, which is throughout this song, was guaranteed entrance into Krishna heaven. So they thought this song was great. My favorite Harrison songs are Give me Love and What is Life. Hope you get a chance to listen to them.
I believe this is my favorite of George's ❤ He wasn't religious, he was spiritual !❤

He was a beautiful soul
"Beware of Darkness" absolutely blows this song away in my opinion. It's powerful yet soothing, and has calmed me down in many occasions. Sometimes you need a song like that. It's my favorite.

what is life PLEASE really special
Here comes the Sun, another George Harrison classic. Don't miss it!!!
I love All Things MUST Pass. George wrote this song for his Dad after his mum passed away to help him with his grief on losing his wife...and George's mum. So special and soothing in a sad way.
Happy new year really impressed with your comment what a wonderful smile you got if you don't mind please friendship with me 🥰😘 💝🥰 ?
George and Ringo are my favorites. George, in my opinion was the best looking. I love this song, and Here Comes the Sun.
And the most normal.
George is known to have pondered the meaning of life by saying....."I remember thinking I just want more. This isn't it. Fame is not the goal. Money is not the goal. To be able to know how to get peace of mind, how to be happy, is something you don't just stumble across. You've got to search for it."
Rubber Soul... best! Still have my original copy.
Yup. George figured it out. Knowledgeable Truth through Life Experience is 1 key to happiness. Truth has pre-existed our conscious acknowledgement of; it. The material world is only one part of what we think is perceived as reality.
George is definitely underrated.
There was a lot of speculation that Yoko Ono was responsible for the breakup of The Beatles. However they have said that the reason that they broke up was because they were growing apart as artists, and as people. as each of them was married, some of them with children, at the time that they broke up.

It’s so fun to watch someone experience this song fresh. Brings me back to 1970!
You can't go wrong with early George Harrison and "Don't Bother Me". I believe it's his first Beatles contribution.
Many things brought their breakup. Mostly, they were growing up and going their own ways.
A lot of things contributed to the breakup. The death of Brian Epstein. A new manager. Yoko Ono's constant presence and John Lennon's drug use. Creative differences also was said to play a major role. I was very saddened by their break up but all went on to create their own legacy.❤️
Lennon & McCartney suppressed Harrison's songs for years. George Martin didn't help much either.
I think that people underestimate the importance of Brian Epstein. He was the glue that held them all together. They slowly began to drift apart after his death.
Not to mention John, George and Ringo wanted Allen Klein as their new manager, whereas Paul wanted Linda's father and brother to manage the Beatles affairs.
Another awesome George tune is "Any Road" - perfectly captures his character, like a giggling brook running from deep water.
George was the quiet Beatle. Throughout my life I’ve loved and revered the Beatles collectively and individually. I was born in fall of ‘65 and remember new songs of the Beatles on the radio hearing for the first time! Ringo is the reason I play drums to this day.

The most beautiful and mystic song i will ever hear. The amount of emotion I get from listening to it is unbelievable. We still love you George
I think one of my favourite of George's solo is "Give Me Love"
Give Me Love is brilliant!
Great #1 record from a PHENOMENAL album..All Things Must Pass. ♥️♥️🎼🎶🎵🇨🇦

My favorite is While my guitarr gently weeps.
George Harrison "What Is Life"
This was George's first single after the Beatles broke up. Huge #1 hit. There's another song on this album worth hearing called "What Is Life" that was released as the follow-up single.

Give Me Love was not on All Things Must Pass. It was on Living In The Material World.
If John were still alive, he'd probably be up there with them.
George was the first Beatle to haves solo #1 hit
My favorite George Harrison song is Give Me Love. It's a perfect song!
You could drop the needle on just about any track on the first 2 records of "All Things Must Pass" and find a great song. I still say "Isn't It A Pity (version 1)" is probably his greatest recording. Especially when you consider he'd written it when he was about 23 years old. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.
The great Nina Simone certainly loved George. In fact, she recorded several versions of his songs.

The best answer to why the Beatles broke up...too much talent in one group
Mmm Mmm Mmm....Lord have mercy! George Harrison!

Egos and direction basically, massively talented people with their own ideas.
Instead of suing him the Shirelles should have thanked him for taking their little melody to unprecedented heights they could never have dreamed of.
Such a beautiful song.
Happy Birthday, Baby George. 25/02/1943
The quiet, dark and mysterious Beatle.
Or was he?
At one of The Beatles' first recording sessions with George Martin, they were asked by George Martin " Is there anything you don't like?" and quick as a flash George Harrison said

Rise in Power George. ❤
One of my favorite songs by the Beatles and George in particular is "It's All Too Much," from the Yellow Submarine movie and soundtrack album--one of the most joyful (and psychedelic) songs I know.
Love both the intro and the outro. Sod it the rest of the song ain't too bad either.
He had a Middle Eastern/India religion that he discovered later in his life and he devoted himself to it, heart and soul. George was very special and was the heart of the Beatles to me.
So great the way he names so many gods/lords. He believed they were all the same god but just wanted to see for his own eyes
When you want to know perfect love, there is only One. Love is Spirit is Life. Everyone will fail you. As humans, that is inevitable. God's love shines, bursts forth from within when your heart longs to be loved, to know love. George enunciated a beautiful and perfect prayer in this song, a masterpiece, a profound blessing.
One of my absolute favorites of his 😍
He said hallelujah in so many different ways
George was my favorite Beatle! The man!✌🌻
I love George so much! My favorite Beatle! (John was second) George actually was the first Beatle to quit, (in 1968) but came back two weeks later. (see the movie Get Back) He was just tired of his work being pushed aside on Beatle albums, just getting one or two max. (He did get three songs on Revolver) But by 1970, The Beatles had been together fro ten years, and they were all in their late 20's ready to branch out and create their own magic. George had so much music written at the time of the break up, it became his 3 album masterpiece "All Things Must Pass" (Which My Sweet Lord is from) Just Perfection. And George's voice? gentle and smooth, but strong and sometimes rough too. His voice can be so soothing, and his spirituality surrounds you with warmth. I have so many favorites, but What is Life?, Give Me Love-Give me Peace on Earth, The Art of Dying, Here Comes the Sun, and Something, of course. He had an amazing life, but never forgot where he came from. Gone too soon, but loved forever. Thanks for you fun review and many happy listening s to all new music to you!
I remember learning that the Beatles had broken up when I was about 6 years old. They'd been broken up for a couple of years and I felt like I'd been punched in the stomach, I felt genuine childhood grief. WHY??? They sound like such great friends? They get along, they are funny!

It was for people falling in love, not for people who were married and had all kinds of life or death responsibilities involving all these complex social and legal relationships. It was just too complicated. They had to go off and become individual adults with wives and kids.
Another take on their breakup is that they never really broke up. On the late Beatles albums they were each writing their own songs. It was like a compilation of solo projects. Then when they did solo projects they constantly collaborated with each other.
But there was a magic to the Beatles being all together at once. The Saturday Night Live where Loren Greene (joke, Paul McCartney would get it) the director ;-) of SNL offers the Beatles a 1000$ if they do a reunion on SNL. That prospect really struck a chord with a lot of people, and again when it was learned that it almost happened.
The spiritual journey Beatle who is my absolute hero. I’ve been to Fryar Park as part of my pilgrimage to this truth teller. 🙏
"isn't it a pity", gets me every time!
Beautiful song by a beautiful beatle
Smooth and demanding ... yes, quite an interesting set of qualities! George is awesome!
If we are doing George, gotta do "What Is Life", or maybe "Give Me Love". Or, maybe...
What is Life is probably my favorite of his songs, post Beatles. Such a great groove and killer riff.
This Is Love
@@christophersessions3375 I agree with you totally on that!!
You should do Reaction of BLUE JAY WAY BY THE BEATLES. George wrote this song and it is very strange.
My sweet George ❣️❤️❣️❣️❣️!!!!
G.H. at his "BEST". Best person, Beattle spiritual "Rocker" ever.
My favorite Beatle 💕
The Beatles broke up because they grew up. They started off as young kids trying to find themselves; and they did, and that was it. Comes time to fly the coop and do your own thing eventually - they did it right and their timing was perfect. They were the 60's.
You’ll love “What Is Life” too man.
One of my favorite George songs is All Things Must Pass. He has so many.
George wrote one of Ringo's first solo hits called "It Don't Come Easy".
This is my favorite song of all time, george changed my views on so many things
This song made George my favorite Beatle
The "4 headed' creative magical machine was getting tired of being a single entity and was morphing into 4 individuals. They left on a magical mystical high never to be duplicated again
Fab by George Harrison
The Beatles visited the Maharishi Yogi in India. George became a searcher for God.
He wrote lots of great songs. This is just one of them.
Since this is Harrison's big single right after going solo, you might want to try Lennon's and McCartney's equivalents: "Instant Karma!" and "Maybe I'm Amazed". Two utterly incredible songs.
My fav. song ever! 👍
Perfect. "The Inner Light" is silly good. Truth knows who it is.
My favorite song from george harrison is got my mind set on you
My favorite George Harrison song is "Here Comes The Sun" from Abbey Road, but you ought to check out The Beatles "Do You Want To Know A Secret" from 1963 for an example of the maturity of his earlier song writing. "My Sweet Lord" is a total vibe. One of my earliest musical memories involves hearing it on the radio at the ice cream shop my parents took me too after church when I was very young and it was top of the pops. Dig the way the bass and drums sort of sneak up on the song half way through, expanding the overall sound in a way that gives support to the backup vocals while letting the whole tune breathe.
"What Is Life" is a must
Check out “When We Was Fab” from his Cloud Nine album. You’re guaranteed to like it.
AND the video for it.....and RINGO is in it, and watch for Phil Collins walk by carrying one of Lennon's albums under his arm, Paul & Ringo did backing vocals. ruclips.net/video/AVu6nPTVbBQ/видео.html
