you are right Rick, I saw a documentary not too long ago, and they mentioned about this song. George was struggling with the guitar solo or something like he couldn't hit some notes smoothly. And Eric Clapton happens to be hanging out with them at the studio at the time. So they asked Eric Clapton to mess around with it, and he got it done first try.
There’s a lot written about Lennon & McCartney’s harmonies but I think George’s with Paul blends so perfectly. When Eric Clapton is your lead guitarist and Paul McCartney is your backing singer AND the song is THIS good the magic will follow. Also Ringo is great on this.
George Harrison was an excellent song writer, guitarist and singer. He just didn’t get the amount of attention that Paul and John received. George was “the quiet Beatle”.
Yes, George definitely grew into an advanced creative composer. But unlike some, I rather liked his music all the way at the beginning, including such early work as "Don't Bother Me."
John said that him and Paul knew George was going to be a great songwriter. He had just started writing songs later than when John and Paul started. John saw that George was growing through the same hurdles that he and Paul did. Which is why he knew that George was going to catch up eventually.
It should be said that George IS a GREAT and capable guitarist and it says something about his ego that he asked Eric to play guitar on a Beatle track. An example of being in service to the song and what it deserves.
@@paullavan3097 Presumably she made her own decisions. But it also says something that Clapton (to my knowledge) never complained about not being credited very much. After all how many people are on a Beatles Album.
@@paullavan3097 Not quite. This was recorded 1968. Patti Boyd divorced George 9 years later though admittedly Eric did started wooing Patti not long after this.
Now you need to hear the tribute to George Harrison with Tom Petty,Jeff Lynne ,Steve Winwood, and the one and only Prince his guitar lead at the end is epic ✌️♥️ Eric Clapton plays the lead on this version after John and Paul didn't show any interest in the song George and brought Eric in and after they heard it Paul added the piano lead in one of my favorites of all Beatle songs
It’s truly undeniably. The Beatles were the greatest band ever. There are many great bands, but none come close to the creativity, combined talent, originality, personality along with their raw song writing and production genius.
It always brings a smile to my face when I see you visit The Beatles because the variety of music is so diverse I anticipate surprise. I’d love to see you respond to Tomorrow Never Knows.
Oh HELL yeah. Now that would be amazing. I once made a mix tape that was nothing but that song, with the original version, and about 15 other artists and bands covering it. A whole hour of just that one song, and it wasn't too much. Nobody touches that song these days though, sadly.
7:58 That's why George called Eric Clapton, he was the only one who could "make the guitar cry". It was the first time anyone had collaborated with the Beatles. You should react to Harrison's other wonder already (Something). Frank Sinatra said it was the best song of the last 50 years!
How good did the Beatles have too be, too prove how brilliant they were. This is totally outstanding it’s from the white album, that has some real zigers on it. I adore this reaction Jovaughn.
Awaiting on you all is a fave of mine. He also has a beautiful version of the Hare Krishna mantra with Buddhist monks… ruclips.net/video/XVMgEupff-E/видео.html
That's one of my favorite Beatles songs and my favorite Harrison song. It's always hard to pick a recommendation for a next Beatles reaction because they have so many good songs, but here I think it's fitting to recommend another fine Harrison song: "Something".
George was so amazing & under used. "With every mistake we must surely be learning". That line really gets me. It's my favorite Beatle song. It is my 30 year old grandson's all time favorite song. It keeps it's magic through the generations.
Oh this song❣ my favorite Beatles tune. And with my man Clapton, the master. Don't think I've ever listened and not repeated it at least twice more. F*cking masterpiece!
George was always my favorite Beatle. I felt he had more talent than either John or Paul but it seemed he never got the recognition. Thankfully with reactors like you, Jay, he is being recognized for his talent(s). Take care and be well. Peace.
Jeff Healey does an awesome rendition of this. He was an excellent guitarist and played it on his lap as he was blind and taken too soon.RIP Mr Healey.
The Beatles, for me, never disappointed. After George grew into a great composer in his own right and by the end of the Beatles he was Lennon/McCartney equal, composition wise. The Beatles as composers cannot be beat and in MY opinion there is only one partnership that is equal to them and that is Benny and Bjorn of ABBA, great admirers of L&M who influenced them so much that they followed them by trying to never remake a song. In other words, there was no She Loves You 2.0. They evolved. The Beatles inspired just about everyone.
Saw a documentary with George and how it was difficult for him and Ringo to get their songs on The Beatles albums, which he said was somewhat of a disappointment. There was so much talent, it was hard to stay together.
This is George with Clapton on lead, the rest of the Beatles didn't want to do the song till Clapton came in and did the lead and it would have been a big mistake on their part as this is one of the best George and them had done, George turned out to be a great writer and artist and ended up writing one of the biggest songs ever recorded by other artists, "Something".
By the way Jaycee, what made the Beatles the greatest of all is that NO TWO SONG SOUNDED ALIKE. Show anyone else that could and still can to this today!
Actually, there are 2 more live versions, 1) GEORGE, RINGO, ERIC CLAPTON(playing the lead solo as he did on the White Album) at The 1987 PRINCE'S TRUST ROCK GALA ..ruclips.net/video/gL2K-KrtBNs/видео.html also ELTON JOHN on piano, PHIL COLLINS on another set of drums alongside Ringo, JEFF LYNNE (fellow TRAVERLING WILBURY with George), JOOLS HOLLAND, RAY COOPER on tambourine. 2) THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE...ruclips.net/video/CrTMc2i6Lzc/видео.html held on the first anniversary of George's death. With PAUL MCCARTNEY (piano & harmonies), ERIC CLAPTON (lead guitar and singing lead), JEFF LYNNE (of ELO, Traveling Wilburys), RINGO STARR and JIM KELTNER ( played on many solo lps for Lennon & George) on DRUMS, DHANI HARRISON (GEORGE'S SON, on the large acoustic guitar and white shirt, standing to the right of CLAPTON...DHANI looking VERY MUCH LIKE YOUNG GEORGE when he was a Beatle), ALSO on PIANO is GARY BROOKER (of PROCAL HARUM, many reactors have seen him on the WHITER SHADE OF PALE video with the full symphony, look for him near the end of the song in the lower left of the screen, white hair and beard), famous guitarist ALBERT LEE ( white curly long hair by McCartney's piano) who has played with just about everyone and is a fantastic guitarist and singer in his own right, I have seen him 3 times in the last few years in 2 very small venues playing with PETER ASHER (of PETER AND GORDON and also a famous producer), RAY COOPER on percussion....there's a whole slew of famous people up there who are fellow musicians and friends of George paying him tribute. I am sure you would like to see both of these... OH, and THEN there is the version with PRINCE and DHANI HARRISON, from when the ROCK HALL inducted GEORGE as a SOLO ARTIST in to the HALL OF FAME in 2004 ...ruclips.net/video/6SFNW5F8K9Y/видео.html PRINCE plays a blistering solo to finish the song off. TOM PETTY and JEFF LYNNE sing the song, with DHANI joining in from time to time. HE IS HIS DAD'S DOUBLE, even down to facial expressions when he sings....FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE AGAIN.
One of my favorite Beatles Tunes. I was always a John fan most of all, but this song, with Eric Clapton on the Guitar, just talked to me more then almost anything else they did.
Man , Georges vocals on this are as good as any vocals on any Beatles song. Eric Clapton was on lead on this song but if you want to hear George's guitar at its best then Listen to Alvin Lee's The Bluest Blues on which George Played Slide, he makes his guitar cry. Oh and Alvin's outro solo ain't half bad either.
You heard the Demo version before officially recorded. Not a bad thing though. You got to hear the song’s progression which is cool if you think about it!
This album came out less than a month before I was born, and my earliest memories include this song; the beginning of the lovely chorus has always felt sublime. Eyes rolled back beautiful. On every Beatles album , the George songs were always my favorite. I encourage anyone who hasn't yet to listen to the 'All Things Must Pass ' album set.
This is my favourite version of this song and one of my favourites, but George is a wonderful singer/songwriter this song is a beautiful love song. Like you want to hear it again I am just the same, once is never enough lol. You were really into this and the guitars especially the solo pieces, your words about are spot on sweetheart (as usual lol). I have never heard another reactor as I liked you the first song I heard you react to, my late Dad used to say I'd you've seen or heard the beat dont bother with the rest, Ice always remembered that. Take care and stay safe please my friends God bless you all love hugs and peace to everyone Mary-Ellen UK
There is a live cover of this song for George Harrison’s hall of fame induction i believe. Price does the solo at the end and it is honestly one of my favourite solos ever
While my guitar gently weeps is definitely the greatest George Harrison piece ever, and the many other versions of it, like the live in Tokyo one, which is also very good
Another amazing version is that done by Prince, Jeff Lynne, and co-after George died. I love this original one too. I would certainly encourage anyone to seek out the tribute version which has one of the most amazing guitar solos I’ve ever seen by Prince.
Now you should listen to the version of this song recorded at The Concert For George, a tribute concert held on the one-year anniversary of the day George died. In the original recording you reacted to here, Eric Clapton was playing lead guitar. George was humble & confident enough to know who could best make the guitar cry & he let EC shine. In the tribute concert, EC is again playing lead, & he outdoes himself!! My all-time favorite version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps is from The Concert For George. Paul & Ringo are also part of the band, as is George's easy-to-spot son. You'll love it!! While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Taken from Concert For George) - RUclips
*Harry and Lou (George's parents), were longtime family friends. Harry worked with my dad as a conductor on the buses, and my sister and me both went to Dovedale with George, his sister and both his brothers. I kept in touch with George and his brother (who was also called Harry after their dad), right up until a few weeks before George died at one of Paul's homes in America. It's weird reading about him now as a Beatle. I don't know why, it just is?*
You really need to check out THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE. It was a fundraiser concert for George's charity "Material World Foundation" on the anniversary of his death. ERIC CLAPTON is the guitarist on this song and he organized this concert along with many friends, Olivia, George's wife, Dhani, George's son. Dhani also plays guitar in this concert and looks just like his Dad. YOU SAID YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG AGAIN...CHECK OUT THE VERSION ON THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE. You won't be disappointed. The energy was palpable. The musicians later said they felt George's presence in the room like he was guiding them.
So enjoying seeing you groove to some of the soundtrack of my life💜 I was into music in elementary school and would walk around with my treasured little radio listening to everything, kind of like what you are doing now. Cheers! 💜🎧🎵🎶
Great review/reaction. Many say that Abby Road, Let It Be, and Revolver are the Beatles best albums. For me its the White Album. George Harrison wrote so many great songs (as part of the Beatles and as a solo artist.) Included those that were written by him are: Something (In the way), Here Comes the Sun, and My Sweet Lord. (I say do a reaction to My Sweet Lord!)
You must watch the tribute to George and this song featuring George’s son, Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, Jeff Lynne, and a killer solo by Prince. AMAZING❤️
great reaction mate,this is such an iconic song,there used to be album come out called while my guitar gently weeps every year the greatest guitar players used to do a version of this song,mark knophler,eric clapton,jeff healey,and many more,check some out theres some amazing versions of this song
Listening to the Beatles is a God shot. The most influential band in shaping popular culture... music, freedom, fashion, politics, they are EVERYTHING.

This is a George Harrison composition with guest Eric Clapton on lead guitar
you are right Rick, I saw a documentary not too long ago, and they mentioned about this song. George was struggling with the guitar solo or something like he couldn't hit some notes smoothly. And Eric Clapton happens to be hanging out with them at the studio at the time. So they asked Eric Clapton to mess around with it, and he got it done first try.
There’s a lot written about Lennon & McCartney’s harmonies but I think George’s with Paul blends so perfectly. When Eric Clapton is your lead guitarist and Paul McCartney is your backing singer AND the song is THIS good the magic will follow. Also Ringo is great on this.
or you give the guitar to Prince, than magic comes
You definitely hear Eric Clapton’s guitar playing in this beautiful song.
And Paul’s bass on this, man. So good.
@@SPOPictures Magic was there before Prince was ever thought of!
@@reinacarbetta388 Actually is John.
George Harrison was an excellent song writer, guitarist and singer. He just didn’t get the amount of attention that Paul and John received. George was “the quiet Beatle”.
Very true sweetheart, he and Ringo were always my favourite Beatles, God bless you Mary-Ellen UK
Yes, George definitely grew into an advanced creative composer. But unlike some, I rather liked his music all the way at the beginning, including such early work as "Don't Bother Me."
He got less attention because he didn't write as many hits. It's as simple as that.
@@mezellenjohnson2753 They were definitely my two favorites!
John said that him and Paul knew George was going to be a great songwriter. He had just started writing songs later than when John and Paul started. John saw that George was growing through the same hurdles that he and Paul did. Which is why he knew that George was going to catch up eventually.
George’s masterpiece. Tremendous and iconic
No way. "Something" and "Here Comes the Sun".
@@johnshannon9656 three-way tie? 😬 maybe I should’ve said “one of”
I'll throw in "Art of Dying" too.
It should be said that George IS a GREAT and capable guitarist and it says something about his ego that he asked Eric to play guitar on a Beatle track. An example of being in service to the song and what it deserves.
It says more than that, seeing as how Clapton stole his woman at the time.
@@paullavan3097 Presumably she made her own decisions.
But it also says something that Clapton (to my knowledge) never complained about not being credited very much. After all how many people are on a Beatles Album.
@@paullavan3097 Not quite. This was recorded 1968. Patti Boyd divorced George 9 years later though admittedly Eric did started wooing Patti not long after this.
He also brought him in so that John and Paul would behave lol
@@paullavan3097 from my understanding George cheated on pattie as well.
No beating this original version. George was really hitting his straps on this album and continued from then onwards

The best version
Now you need to hear the tribute to George Harrison with Tom Petty,Jeff Lynne ,Steve Winwood, and the one and only Prince his guitar lead at the end is epic ✌️♥️ Eric Clapton plays the lead on this version after John and Paul didn't show any interest in the song George and brought Eric in and after they heard it Paul added the piano lead in one of my favorites of all Beatle songs
I believe J already reacted to that
@@maryfromabluest8 oh my Bad
Prince makes that guitar ball its eyes out. Absolutely a must to watch
ruclips.net/video/rUL_MPAH7LI/видео.html
I've seen everyone - Prince easily the best guitar player I have seen.
The Beatles in general were so fantastic. 💜
It’s truly undeniably. The Beatles were the greatest band ever. There are many great bands, but none come close to the creativity, combined talent, originality, personality along with their raw song writing and production genius.
...there are those who may argue...I am not one of those
Greatest band ever...... No band should never have the title 'Greatest Band Ever'.
You exclaiming omg when Eric makes his guitar cry!!!!
It always brings a smile to my face when I see you visit The Beatles because the variety of music is so diverse I anticipate surprise. I’d love to see you respond to Tomorrow Never Knows.

@@umdesch4 nah man i still love that one
My favorite Beatles song. I must have listened to it hundreds of times, and each time I fall more in love with it!
They went from You're Gonna Loose That Girl to this in THREE YEARS!
Eric Clapton and George Harrison together are an amazing creative team.
They also shared the same amazing & creative girl friend ;) Ya, I know,--- but it's the truth.
@@slydawwg She was pretty lucky I guess
One of the unheralded heroes of the song is the distorted background keyboards.
That's McCartney who also supplied some rather nice backing vocals.
It wasn't only Lennon and McCartney who could write a great tune!
Yeah even Ringo wrote Octopus's garden and I love that composition.
George was so underrated in comparison but for me his songs were so beautiful.
It's amazing to think about how young the Beatles were at the time they were making art like this. It was art and it was cutting-edge pioneering.
Gorgeous composition. George has always been my favorite Beatle.
I remember when he died it was a very sad day across earth
@@joeltwinx3805 yes, I remember that too. A very heavy melancholy feeling. Glad we had his brilliance, but sad it was suddenly gone.
I loved all The Beatles, but George was always my favorite.
7:58 That's why George called Eric Clapton, he was the only one who could "make the guitar cry". It was the first time anyone had collaborated with the Beatles. You should react to Harrison's other wonder already (Something). Frank Sinatra said it was the best song of the last 50 years!
Agreed…Clapton is my favourite artist..and the way his guitar weeps during the 2nd half of Layla makes it one of the greatest love songs written, IMO.
How good did the Beatles have too be, too prove how brilliant they were. This is totally outstanding it’s from the white album, that has some real zigers on it. I adore this reaction Jovaughn.
George Harrison, so underrated. A good solo song of his is What Is Life.

My favourite too along with Julia, I think this album had their best songs
Magnificent song. Go back and listen, and this time focus on Paul Mccartney's bass. Its absolutely cracking!
A masterpiece. The Beatles have MANY of them.
You’re definitely one of the more genuine-seeming reaction tubers. Keep it up.
Possibly the greatest Beatles song of them all, which is sure saying something and definitely the top 10
Paul's bass is from another World.
agreed!
George was always my favorite Beatle. I felt he had more talent than either John or Paul but it seemed he never got the recognition. Thankfully with reactors like you, Jay, he is being recognized for his talent(s). Take care and be well. Peace.
They are the Master Class of what a great band should be.
Love Paul Mccartney backing vocals mixed with George lead on this song specifically. So haunting yet majestic
✌🏼🇬🇧 thanks for keeping The Beatles on your channel.

One of the greatest songs ever written.
Saw a documentary with George and how it was difficult for him and Ringo to get their songs on The Beatles albums, which he said was somewhat of a disappointment. There was so much talent, it was hard to stay together.
This song embraces everyone ☮️❤️
This songs definetly proves the great songwriter that George was; honest, direct and deep
There’s a reason the Beatles are the best. Not only did they write over 200 amazing songs, but their sound is perfection.
everyone talks bout Clapton's guitar playing (which is excellent), but Paul's bass line is sick in this!
Some say it’s John on the 6 string fender bass vi. Paul On piano
My fav Beatles song! LOVE George Harrison.
This is George with Clapton on lead, the rest of the Beatles didn't want to do the song till Clapton came in and did the lead and it would have been a big mistake on their part as this is one of the best George and them had done, George turned out to be a great writer and artist and ended up writing one of the biggest songs ever recorded by other artists, "Something".

Oh...what a great selection for you to react to! Beautiful, soulful, amazingly talented George! (He had a razor sharp wit, as well!). Thank you...
Clapton's guitar is indeed weeping. At the same time, they used a technique that gave a weeping tone to the organ.
The White Album & Abby Road - The GREAT Beatles at their music PEAK...! It doesn't get any better then THIS... 😊😊😊

Grew up on this as my dad loves The Beatles
It is always amazing that most bands are lucky to even have one writer in the band as good..and this band had 3 .
George Harrison, who wrote this was the best out of the 'Fab 4.'
I wholeheartedly agree.
How do you figure that?

Great review/reaction. Many say that Abby Road, Let It Be, and Revolver are the Beatles best albums. For me its the White Album. George Harrison wrote so many great songs (as part of the Beatles and as a solo artist.) Included those that were written by him are: Something (In the way), Here Comes the Sun, and My Sweet Lord. (I say do a reaction to My Sweet Lord!)
Imagine getting to discover the Beatles for the first time. Lucky man
You must watch the tribute to George and this song featuring George’s son, Tom Petty, Steve Winwood, Jeff Lynne, and a killer solo by Prince. AMAZING❤️

Listening to the Beatles is a God shot.
The most influential band in shaping popular culture... music, freedom, fashion, politics, they are EVERYTHING.
Nearly ever song from the Beatles 1965 thru 1970 is wonderful
Definitely my favorite Beetle's song.
