I don't really care that much about any of George's songs on the White Album, not even the highly praised Gently Weeps. LLL sounds a bit boring, Piggies is a skip and Savoy Truffle is a decent rocker, but not much more.

I really like 'Long, Long, Long' espacially after the 'I've got blisters on my fingers!' ending of Helter Skelter, and it's like a 'Good Night' to me, I fall asleep after like 40 seconds. Definetly in my top 5 Harrison songs.

I think 'Piggies' is fine. Great guitar and quite funny lyrics.

'WMGGW' is fine, too. But a bit boring and too long. I can't see why so many people consider it as the greatest Harrison song. I gues it's just overrated...

There's why I think it's boring. WMGGW is ruined by Clapton's lead guitar imho.

Wait, I like Piggies!  I like the harpsichord.

But I prefer the demo...

Savoy Truffle is my favorite George song in the collection.  I like the others about the same.

LLL sounds a bit boring,

Its all about the build up and the explosion in the middle. Shame George didnt have a bigger voice. Production also killed the song. Way to quiet for some reason (although I havent heard the remaster yet. Still havent opened up the boxset.)
