Quoted from ma_tt2
really? I think he ruined a classic with that version
George didn't like the production Spector made. It's old-fashioned, somehow. I like the 2000 version because of the production (no so many guitars) and the slide. |

I'm quite fond of alternate versions of classics that George did with others.

Very good song, but long for my taste. It bores me some parts of it, ... just waiting for the last two minutes that are great. I can't stand version 2 however. |

My Sweet Lord sounds like George embarking on his new solo career with the uptempo sound and that.
My Sweet Lord 2000 sounds to me like he kind of knows that it's nearly over, therefore he comes full circle with a slower more mournful remake. |

Oh, good grief!  Another impossible poll! George's solo work is so varied, this list would have to be 20 choices long, and I still don't think you'd come close to picking everyone's favorites. I'm going to be really rigorous and just pick: ATMP 1: What Is Life and Let It Down ATMP 2: Beware of Darkness and Hear Me Lord Brainwashed: Pisces Fish and... and... the whole rest of the album!  Seriously, on both these albums, there's not a song I would skip (except the remake of MSL but that doesn't really count). But as for songs that just come out of the blue, "Cheer Down". I still remember hearing that in the theatre and sitting bolt upright and saying "George!" (I think I even said it out loud.)  Great song, and always makes me feel happy. |

I voted for My Sweet Lord. I've always liked Got My Mind Set On You, especially the video which was a hoot! |
