About "Something"

From the original Beatles Album "Abbey Road" (1969)

JOHN 1969: "I think that's about the best track on the album, actually."

PAUL 1969: "I like George's song 'Something.' For me I think it's the best he's written."

GEORGE 1969: "I wrote the song 'Something' for the album before this one, but I never finished it off until just recently. I usually get the first few lines of words and music together, both at once... and then finish the rest of the melody. Then I have to write the words. It's like another song I wrote when we were in India. I wrote the whole first verse and just said everything I wanted to say, and so now I need to write a couple more verses. I find that much more difficult. But John gave me a handy tip. He said, 'Once you start to write a song, try to finish it straight away while you're still in the same mood.' Sometimes you go back to it and you're in a whole different state of mind. So now, I do try to finish them straight away."

GEORGE 1980: "'Something' was written on the piano while we were making the White Album. I had a break while Paul was doing some overdubbing so I went into an empty studio and began to write. That's really all there is to it, except the middle took some time to sort out. It didn't go on the White Album because we'd already finished all the tracks."

GEORGE HARRISON
Si bien Jhon y Paul fueron los que más canciones compusieron para mi gusto las de George eran las más lindas , además el sonido de la guitarra de George era la que más se destacaba en el grupo

anyone notice how George looks at Paul and mouths "John's playing like shit" in the beginning, at about the 20 second mark.

Beatles for all!
Estas músicas, quanto mais simples tenham sido, têm o poder de atravessar gerações a fio. E sabemos que continuará assim... Viva!
