Topic.

I like Taxman. It's a very rocking piece that's very funny and very catchy. A masterpiece in every respect, with some awesome drumming and great guitar playing

Hmmmm, I would have to say I Want To Tell You because it's quite simply brilliant! :-)

Here comes the sun. Listen to it on a cold grey morning in March and you will realize that life is still pretty good. Beautiful song, simple but perfect.

Why dint you include that up there? Its one of his best known!

simple for a while. I've yet to see anyone reproduce a passable rendition of the B part. "sun sun sun, here it comes"

it changes structure radically at that point.

if I'm not mistaken it becomes a 9/8 feel for that passage.

no wonder everyone hates me on beatle forums. I know too much. people perceive me a threat.

I do not mean to be threatening or hostile. But I know a zillion times more about the Beatles than anyone else.

most people find that unsettling. I should leave this forum asap.

I'd have to say While my guitar gently weeps - even though Clapton's solo is fantastic, any of the acustic recordings George did of it are amazing, wonderfully heart-rendering.

I think it's funny that I forgot Something and Here Comes The Sun...

I don't know what I was smoking

Lostio · « **Reply #8 on:** October 08, 2004, 10:36:59 PM »

I'd go for either Something or Piggies.

tkitna · « **Reply #9 on:** October 08, 2004, 11:20:49 PM »

I've always liked 'Long, Long, Long' and 'If I needed Someone'.

I chose While My Guitar Gently Weeps. I've always loved the guitar in this song.

here comes the sun most definetley
one of the most perfect sounding songs ever

Blackbird · « **Reply #13 on:** October 17, 2004, 02:36:28 AM »

i voted while my guitar, but i forgot about here comes the sun... idiotically

jeanie · « **Reply #14 on:** October 17, 2004, 02:46:01 AM »

I voted for I need you 'cos it's my all time most favourite song!!! Go George!

apple sauce · « **Reply #15 on:** October 19, 2004, 12:53:30 AM »

It's got to be "Taxman" because it shows us very early in the "Beatles" career that George was just as talented as John and Paul! The lead in riff and blending of harmony is stunning!

Wordno · « **Reply #16 on:** October 22, 2004, 01:49:39 AM »

I think Old Brown Shoe is his best song. It's so awsome and catchy. I think it's very underrated. It's almost like no one knows about that song. .

freakchic9 · « **Reply #17 on:** August 21, 2008, 08:24:35 PM »

I say You Like Me Too Much is a really great Harrison song.

HeatherBoo · « **Reply #18 on:** August 22, 2008, 12:48:14 AM »

If I Needed Someone is great, and While My Guitar Gently Weeps

DarkSweetLady · « **Reply #19 on:** August 22, 2008, 12:35:36 PM »

Strictly Beatle career, I'd have to go with my favorite Beatle song Within You Or Without You.
