Random George Thoughts

[Hari's Chick]

We had this topic a while back and it was really nice. images/icons/smile.gif Post away any little ramblings about our George.

[sourmilkpinky]

kinda funny this topic would pop up right now. I was just wondering why George was so thin during the "Rain" video. Still hot, but man was he thin. I wonder if it was an illness or drugs.

[jtal909]

I wouldn't mind having his guitars.

[beatlebangs1964]

Darl,

You have a cool teacher!

In the 1965 Concert dvd (I got mine off of eBay), right after the spring 1965 concert in Blackpool, George does his sexy little stiff-legged dance.

I love the way George introduces Paul singing "Yesterday" in 1965. I memorized the George lines and when I was younger, so much younger than today I loved to play the part of George introducing Paul. I knew the lines by heart.

I still like engaging in "Beatle play." images/icons/smile.gif I think it's fun.

[beatlelover45223]

Kind man, loved his stiff legged dance too. sweet smile, gorgeous hair, great guitar player, seems he was kind of the on stage tech guy, when things went wrong, you could see George nod to the off stage person, or perhaps go over to them to tell them what was wrong. Miss you sweet man images/icons/smile.gif

[Rellevart]

Spent most of the evening watching a tape of all of George's videos. Man, he was cool. images/icons/smile.gif

[Rellevart]

Oh, and my " images/icons/smile.gif " post in the silent post thread was in no way disrespectful. I was thinking of his life. How could that not make you think " images/icons/smile.gif "? images/icons/smile.gif

[sourmilkpinky]

Did George ever have a 'fat' period? During HELP his face was nice and 'full' even if his body was still thin. I wonder if he ever thought he was going through a 'fat' period?

[Lucy]

I don't think he ever had a fat period....he was always lean as he could be! I think he must have had one of those mega fast metabolisms that I really really wish I had!! Man, those long, lean, stick thin legs....if only I had pins like that!
BB I agree 100% - his hair is great....so healthy and thick and beautiful looking. I have always said that about George. I don't like it when he poodled it though. But we all have our moments of hair insanity.
Do you know what I love watching as much as his little dances? On the anthology when he is talking about how they would wave to the audience to get screams to cover up dodgy bits in concert and it cuts to footage of George singing Paperback Writer with John and Paul and right on the close harmony bit he does the most hysterical wave to the audience.....I just LOVE that. I haven't watched it for ages actually, I might have a look at it today.

[sourmilkpinky]

oh Lucy, I absolutely love that part too. It's not so much the wave that gets me it's that smirky grin he gives John. Damn I could just jump him right then!!!

[Lucy]

Yeah how they sort of have a little giggle about it - soooooo wonderful!!! images/icons/smile.gif

[beatlebangs1964]

Lucy, I didn't like the permed poodle look either. George had naturally beautiful hair and he sure didn't need no damn perm! I really didn't like the permed look at all. I also didn't like a beard on him.

Speaking of hair insanity, when I was in 12th grade, I had 12" of my hair cut off. Let's just say that was one of my more drastic decisions.

Yeah, I do love George's thick, wavy hair. I've said all along that man has inspired many people with oval follicles that they, too can have great looking hair.

George's humor was acerbic, brilliant and droll. He was VERY funny!

I love to watch George in Help!

I have a feeling, a feeling deep inside oh yeah that George was one heck of a WONDERFUL story teller! How I would have LOVED to hear George telling stories. George was a very interesting man.

[cokate]

I love that part! It's possibly my favorite part of the Anthology...along with Rain. Okay. straying off the topic, but...
my friend and I were in Chick-Fil-A (ooh great beginning, huh?) and when we came out it was raining REALLY kinda hard. (the "kinda" kinda takes away the effect but oh well. images/icons/tongue.gif ) So anyway, she ran to the car, and I went to the middle of the parking lot (stupid place, huh? let's go get run over!) and started dancing and singing that song just to embarrass her. lol that was SO much fun! But anyroad...
back on topic. Wow, this is turning into another forum that should have a GIRLS ONLY sign on it...not that I mind! images/icons/grin.gif Yeah, he is really thin in Rain...oooh not bad at all. Yeah, that was kinda off-topic too. starting over...

i think the bit in the anthology when george is taking about his first acid trip is soo funny, hes soo cute about the whole thing...hes the kind of guy you could sit and listen to for hours! he was just so kind and patient...and his eyes, oh, his eyes! images/icons/smile.gif

[BeatleChick]

I am still just so blown away by what a loving, deep, compassionate soul GH was...he never ceases to impress me! He is an inspiration to me!!! I admire him greatly...

[ Jan 16, 2004, 01:07 AM: Message Edited By: BeatleChick ]

[sourmilkpinky]

There are some truly beautiful feelings expressed about George all through this palace. It warms my soul just rereading all the love we have for that man and all the love he gave the world.

[BeatleChick]

So beautifully said, BB!!!!!

[beatlebangs1964]

George promoted and inspired people to express love for one another. I think his feelings were pure and natural as were his talents and natural expression.

George has given so much - his words have inspired countless people and his reverence for life was evident in all aspects of his own. Like the gardens he so nurtured and cherished, he offered that same approach to others as well.

I think Louise the Elder was an excellent influence on George.

[Sexie Sadie]

I was in the car with my aunt and she was listening to Enya and there was a song I guess called "sail away" and the chorus was "sail away sail away sail away" and I was like that sounds damn close to George's "Blow Away"...anyone know what im taking about? maybe im just weird....

[FPSHOT]

Yes I know the song - called Orinoco Flow - and I believe there is an additional story to it, related to "Blow Away" or George.

I'll see if I can find it.

[LittleDarlin909]

george has such beautiful long eyelashes graemlins/inlove1.gif

[Magill]

I love that picture of George in the white peasant shirt during the CFG. The one they show during the Eastern music. Hummina, hummina! graemlins/drool.gif

I watched the concert last night in memory of George and listened to ATMP. I gotta say, while Eric and the rest did a fine job, George sings his songs best! graemlins/wink3.gif

[beatlebangs1964]

Funny you should mention Enya's 1989 magnum opus -always liked that song as well. I, too, drew the "George" parallel, but I am glad to see I was not alone!

I think George looked his best clean shaven. I love that beautiful fringe and I think his thick wavy hair was PRIME! George was the only Beatle who had wavy hair! During the moptop era, his hair was the longest. When I was a little girl, I thought the Beatles' hair was beautiful. Still do.

George could do the best deadpans of anyone. When you watch A Hard Day's Night, check out George's deadpan expression when a reporter asks if success has changed him. George looks her straight in the face and says "yes." Classic!

That thing with the shirts WAS funny. I read that George didn't want to say "grotty" and found it stupid. When convinced he'd set a trend "because a Beatle had said it," George reluctantly went along with it.

Regardless of your mood, a little George Harrison is good for you. You will find you feel better after you listen to him.

my husband has the same..

color,thick, wavy, sometimes out-of-control hair as George!!

( reviving this thread)

I have been reading some interesting George and Bob Dylan stories on the Bruce Springsteen board.

George's hair was abundant, beautiful, full, glorious thick and wavy! That man had NATURAL waves in his hair and boy, I sure did love watching that brown crown blowing in the breeze during the "I Need You" performance in "Help!"

I love watching George being interviewed. He was fun!

[/ QUOTE ]
I totally agree with everything!

[sourmilkpinky]

George's solo music is really growing on me.

[sourmilkpinky]

I have a question but not a good enough one for it's own topic. I recently came across a pic of George, Mick and Bruce on Yahoo and I was wondering at what conceert/awards show it may have been at. It was probably in the 90's maybe late 80's. Also if anyones knows what George's thoughts were about Bruce.

[Siobhan]

The picture is probably from when the Beatles were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame in 1988. George, Bruce, Mick and others jammed together on a few songs.

I can't recall having heard George comment on Bruce.

[sourmilkpinky]

ok thanks

[sourmilkpinky]

this might sound really silly, far out and freaky but... everytime I see my avatar out of the corner of my eye, I think I am seeing a photo of me when I was about 16.

Yeah, January 20, 1988 in New York, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, R&amp;R Hall Of Fame.

Songs performed were

Twist &amp; Shout (George and Bob)
All Along The Watchtower (George and Bob)

Stand By Me ( Ben E King ad Julian Lennon)
Wholla Lotta Shaking Going On / Hound Dog / Honey Hush (Elton John)
Barbara Ann (Mike Love)
Born On The Bayo (John Fogerty and Bruce)
Like A Rolling Stone ( Bob, Mick and Bruce)
Satisfaction (Bruce and Mick
Blue Bayoo (band)

I can't recall George talking about Bruce either.

Okay, let's have it then... a picture http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

[sourmilkpinky]

couldn't find the pic I was thinking of. I guess we will all just assume I am nuts. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif


Now I think I am crazy, I think I heard an extended version of 'Got My Mind Set On You' on the radio yesterday, but missed the dj tell about it. Anyone know of an extended version? Longer intro and guitar/drum solo in the middle? Is the Live In Japan version like that?

[FPSHOT]

We may http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif do a poll about that

[sourmilkpinky]

http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh5.gif



http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kiss2.gif thanks.

[sourmilkpinky]

Oh yeah, I would love to see that performance also. That would be awesome.

My random thought for today.

I have been feeling George's presence alot lately. Or some calming presence anyways. I hope 'they' can help me decide if I should take a trip this week.

[beatlebangs1964]

Milk,

George's solo works have moved me deeply for years.

Rob, thanks for that song list. I wonder if George, et al.'s work is available for purchase for that R&amp;R performance? I hope so.

I've said all along George was a good influence on people.

His music is very good for me. The Monday Night Prayer Group at my church uses his music - trust me, they will never listen to George in quite the same way ever again! They have developed a respect for the youngest Beatle they never knew they had prior to last October. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I LOVE George's eyebrows! http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eyebrows.gif

[beatlebangs1964]

I was reading Beatles Anthology and boy, Jayne Mansfield was some piece of work! George said in 1964 she sat on the couch between him and John and touched them quite inappropriately. I didn't like that. Larry Kane has a picture of them on the couch and of George, seconds after he threw his drink at an intrusive papparazzo. George talks about this in Anthology as well.

George was not a man to leave you guessing. I like the way he quenched that reporter's zest!

My thoughts are with Olivia today as it is their wedding anniversary.

[Beatlelover]

The next time anyone here rides through the Sierra Nevada bring along George's Brainwashed CD. I did, and it was beautiful and calming, the music mixed with the scenery. It's just beautiful in the Sierra Nevada and listening to George at the same time.

[Roxy Starkey]

A happy Anniversary for them.
They were a great couple.

Well said, Lover. George and his music were natural forms of beauty as is the scenery you just described. Very a propos indeed.

A happy anniversary to Olivia and George. A very special day to recognize indeed.

George has always been a part of nature.

Georgia Posted:

[/QUOTE ]

I have to agree with you.

Ever since I was a little girl, I have intensely loved George Harrison stories. Still do. George stories make me feel so good because he was so well loved from the very beginning. It was plain that he was someone special, distinct and unique. I know I've said this many times, but the post above resparked that thought.

George WAS a lovable sounding man indeed. I seriously think it was those early loving influences that made George the distinctive individual that he was and also came through in his music.

George's music is intensely moving and I have said all along that I think George will continue to remain a good influence. He really did make the world a better place.

George Harrison was truly an extraordinary person.

I knew a little girl who has Asperger's Syndrome, which shares a place on the spectrum with autism. Many individuals with Asperger's Syndrome go undetected, but there is a range and some overlapping behaviors.

This girl is a major Beatles' fan and collector. George is her favorite and she often lets George "talk" for her. For her, all long and winding roads lead to the Beatles and she can always come up with a relevant Beatle or George quote. It just goes to show you how deeply moving George's words really are. This always warms my heart.

In Anthology, George said he hoped people would always have a place in their hearts for the Beatles. I think he can count on that. He can count on it up to 100% every time. :smile1:

He never played the wrong thing, instinctively knew when not to play, was melodically inventive, and those rockabilly riffs are out of this world!

The slide guitar solo on "Your Love Is Forever" is the closest thing to paradise I've ever heard. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I don't agree, I am happy you finally have them, but compare "George Harrison" and "33 1/3" with the original albums and especially focus on the mixing. In many occasions the drums and guitars are more separated and the vocals are more upfront. Quite technical, but there are differences.

Uhm, yeah, I've heard them with headphones, too... and of course they sound better than my older albums (which were mp3 copies anyway...). I think they sound great, and the best sound improvement comes from Thirty-Three &amp; 1/3 (I've come to appreciate "Pure Smokey" now that I can really HEAR it). But albums like Cloud Nine (or Gone Troppo, for that matter), sounded so groundbreakingly great in the first place that I don't think they needed special remastering work.

But what got me thinking was that never in the booklets (nice booklets, by the way), they call them 'remastered' albums nor they put a date for remastering - only for the new artwork. The remastering announces are in front of the CD boxes, except in Live In Japan, where there are people (engineers, etc) credited for the SACD remix. And there you can note a huge difference.

If they did anything to them was remastering them (i.e. just cleaning, not remixing or changing the channels or positions to some instruments), but anyway they sound great, the artwork is great and it's great to have them around here. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif

Pure Smokey is a good example, I also was under the impression it all was kinda packed together and not really polished up well on the original album.

Oh yes, the techniques on Cloud Nine were that good that there probably was not much remastering to do. Technically maybe there have been changes made and if we listen carefully we may even notice it, but to be honest I have not tried that album yet, I mean the comparison.

Somewhere In England though also to me is now really an album I can listen to. The sound is so much clearer.

But...I'd buy the albums if only for the liner notes and pictures http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif and with this box set...I just had to get it.

Sorry to steer away from the technical talk but random thought bouncing around my head...must let it out.....George had fantastic lips.

Sentimentalist said the same thing. I love the man's crowning glory, but I certainly don't want to live in it!

Think of the life forms that have been found in hair, e.g. parasites and lice. Not that George had that problem, but still, the thought of setting up residence in somebody's crowning glory doesn't sound like a quality life to me. That is JMO.

Put a picture of George, 1965 George on your screen as a screen saver. Choose a picture where you can really see the natural S-waves in his beautiful wavy hair!

You can't live without your computer and you understandably love the man's lush, full, thick, beautiful wavy hair. This way you can enjoy both.

Now, to touch that magnificent mane; to play with and brush that beautiful wavy hair; to watch George shake his thick, brown crown...I'd LOVE that! I also love to watch George's hair blowing in the breeze...I sure do love his crowning glory!

I've said many times that George Harrison was a truly beautiful man. He was a deep, profound person and I think his interests such as gardening were very a propos. Gardening is a nuturing, life-sustaining activity and I think that was largely what George was about.

This is exactly why George stories make me feel so intensely good. I love thinking of just how well loved the youngest child of 4 and the youngest Beatle of 4 really was. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif This really captures just why I honestly think George was effective to the extent that he continues to be and why we love him as we do. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif


******************************

[ QUOTE ]
Ibid:

From Louise~

George and I shared many experiences, including the excitement and fun of the early Beatle years, the search for a better understanding of our Creator, why are we here on Earth? and do we have any real purpose? George's search led him, amongst other things, to a book called "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahansa Yogananda. In about 1969, George sent me a copy of the book and soon thereafter I joined the Self-Realization Fellowship which Yogananda founded in 1925 in California.

George was delighted when I showed him my membership card and with a mischievous grin said to me (knowing some of the goof-ups I had made in my life), "Maybe now you will become my divine sister!" With an equally mischievous grin I replied, "I'd like to try, but it won't come easy." His reply: "Nothing worthwhile ever does!"

I learned from SRF, if you truly believe the Creator is within you: a) You are connected with love to all who also contain that spirit. b) You can never think any thought, or perform any act 'behind God's back' and c) Your spirit cannot be adversely affected by the happenings in this finite and imperfect world. Living with those credos one can only think and act with total purity of purpose. In late 1992, I formed a non-profit environmental organization, called Drop-In! It was a continuation of the spirit of many of the "messages" embodied in the Beatle phenomenon. We also included some of the things I had learned from the SRF.

Initially I explained the general ideas of Drop-In to George and invited him to be on the Board, but he said to me, "No Lou, this is your mission or dharma. This is the task you have to do. Besides, it seems you have tapped into a "Power" greater than any help I can give. "

The remastered or remixed Baltimore Oriole is simply amazing . The guitar work really comes forward and the part just where George says, "I'd like to ruffle his plumage.." and the guitar comes in so beautifully. Only George could integrate the music and vocals into such an amazing masterpiece.

[Celebrian]

I enjoy how expressive George's eyebrows are in the movies. He could be funny without saying a word. Some of the best parts in the flicks were George's, particularly when he was up to no good.

Also, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a masterpiece, through and through.

I LOVE George's eyebrows! Especially in Help!. His expressions were hilarious. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif

[ABCKO]

My favorite bit, of all (!), in "Help !" is when they are in the old army barracks (Bahamas).

... just as they are being attacked by Klang's men...

George: "Well, I'm off !" (runs away)

Second favorite, in the tavern, near the end... George in backround, pretending he's searching his pockets for money to pay for the beers... the impish look he gives Ringo as if to say "Sorry, I haven't any cash on me", while actually just being stingy, which is so "George", in a way.

[luvsthebeatles]

I love how George was so religious. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif We both may not share the same beliefs, but it's really neat for me to see one of my favorite people be almost like me in a spiritual sense.

How true...George's music is ideal for inspiring thought. George's work was highly cerebral and soothing and very pleasant to listen to. I think he was truly the most gifted lyricist.

I think George's quote, "If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there" is very a propos.

Yeah, this is one major reason I love George. His humility; his deeply felt convictions and his willingness to explore and his gift for natural expression make me respect the man all the more.

[Celebrian]

This quote from his son has been stuck in my head for a while:

He had an amazing life your dad in a way. Two distinct parts in a way. All the mayhem of the Beatles and quite a fantastic experience for a young person to have y'know, to conquer the world with your music and there was nothing seen like it before or since really. And then the later part of his life just very quiet, very peaceful, spending a lot of time in the garden.

~Yeah, that's kind of how I knew him really. The whole time that we were, or that I was growing up y'know I'd be at school and I'd come home and he'd always be in the garden, and I'd go to school and he'd be in the garden and I'd come home. And then when I was away at University I'd come home and he'd be in the garden, it was just the whole time. He was relentless. He'd garden until it went dark, and I know my friends will all be agreeing with this, when I say it. But literally the man gardened until it was pitch black, and you know, it was, I think night time gardening was one of his favourite activities, cos you couldn't see any of the weeds y'see. And you get to imagine what it would look like when it was all done. And so he'd go out there, y'know maybe take a beer and go out in the garden at night and garden as well. So he was a very very relentless gardener.

"Dear One" is a beautiful prayer set to music.

The Prayer Group at my church uses some George songs.
The people in my group got in touch with their inner
George Harrison afficionados (sp) and discovered just
how wonderful his music is.

"I Want to Tell You" is one of my all time favorite songs and George's best song as a Beatle. I really love it and I think George was an exemplary, exceptional, nonpareil lyricist.

I think George was the most interesting Beatle.

He was NEVER econo-class! George was FIRST CLASS all the way. So was Arthur. And George didn't have to encourage that wink - he deserved it.

When George came to Benton, he rode in a 1961 Dodge Dart. :thumbu2:

I love the fact that George loved to get out there in his little peace of God's earth, and be at one with nature and God, there is nothing like feeling good earth in your hands, and planting that plant and nuturing it, then watching it's response to the care that you(the gardner, and God give these lovely living things) I don't get out to often and play in my garden at night, like George did though... http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

My dad's friend, the one who liked "Your Love Is Forever" without being a Harrison fan whatsoever, asked me to do a compilation CD of George's solo works. He gave me total freedom in that, but he did tell me: 'please let "Isn't It A Pity" be the closer'. The atmosphere in that tune is so beautifully touching that I understood why. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I love his paradoxes.

[beatlebangs1964]

Songs like "Old Brown Shoe" and "It's All Too Much" contain paradoxes. My personal favorite is "the more I learn, the less I know" because the more one learns, the more aware one is of what they do not know.

I just LOVE that Harrison!

Say, have you been talking to BeatleBangs lately? Word has it this BB character just LOVES George's thick, beautiful wavy hair! Damn, that man had some GEORGEOUS hair!

I think George looked best clean shaven. He had a lean, aesthetic face, very attractive features, the Harrison nose and a beautiful body to go with that luxuriant, beautiful wavy hair. I know you've noticed these things, ladies. That's why there are so many threads and posts singing Beatle songs of the praises of George.

And yeah, I love that man's HAIR! http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif No George was always getting http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif at, folks. http://www.beatlelinks.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh5.gif

How can you express exactly the feeling of "being in love"? Well... George did it perfectly when he wrote "Someting"

Every time I listen to this song I feel like thanking God for bringing George Harrison to Earth, and for giving him that talent and that pure soul.
This song is just perfect, I hear it and I became speachless, it's too much, and every single word on it it's so true. The best love song ever written for sure.

Thank you George, really, really thank you.

[darkhorse]

You have to listen to Somewhere In England with headphones to appreciate it. Try it, it just worked on me and I used to hate that album with passion. It's not my favorite either, but it's really good now that I've heard all those little synth sounds in it, and the vocals have become much clearer too. :smile1:

[beatlebangs1964]

Try Some, Buy Some seems a propos in response to the above. :smile1: Yeah, "Somewhere in England" is one that I really enjoy, although it is not my favorite either.

I think George Harrison continues to be a good influence on people. His music is deeply moving and his music moves me to the extent nobody else's work ever has.

[GeorgieGirl]

I loved George's hair REALLY, REALLY long. That was my favorite hair period for me. I always thought Ringo had the best Beatle hair, though. He sure could shake it. Oh, this is George's place. HE HA. Oh, well...

[GeorgieGirl]

I often write about George on my website under Blogging with the Beatles. Something about him that still holds me close. I'm scrapbooking my old memories of him. Kinda fun. Actually, I'm trying to preserve my newsclippings. I have to get the acid out of them, which I just learned to do. Anyways, even though I passed 50 last year, and he passed on, I still think like a teenager and love him dearly. I just ordered a 16 Magazine from the 60's from Ebay with...who else, my fav Beatle. I used to subscribe to 16 but I didn't keep them.

What I love about this board is reading about how other people love him still.

Gee, that sounds like something BeatleBangs1964 would say!
I love Ringo's hair and said all along he could do a damn good
hair toss, but when it comes to Beatle hair with added sex
appeal, the crown goes to George's beautiful brown crown!
He was the only Beatle with wavy hair...I just LOVE that
man's crowning glory!

I agree, BB, the beard doesn't do too much for me, but the hair looks awesome! :smile1:

You can take the Beatles separately and analyze all their energy, but when you put them together astrologically and chemically, something stronger takes place that even the Beatles never understood. As Dylan said, "To understand you know too soon there is no sense in trying." Dylan is so brilliant. To me, he makes William Shakespeare look like Billy Joel.
~George

[GeorgieGirl]

To save time I put a bunch on my website under "Hard Days Night Photo Shoot." I'll let you know as I get more... I know some of you are collecting pictures for your website. I believe these are beautiful in that the resolution is pitch perfect. :wave1:

[Roxy Starkey]

I just came back from "The Cavern Club" here in Buenos Aires. They had some bands doing a tribute to Geo on the day of his 62nd birthday.
It was amazing, I had a great time. They played beautiful songs such as "Something", "Someplace else", "This is love" and a bunch of other lovely songs that our lovely George wrote.

All I wanted to say is that I would've love to share that experience with you. And thank you dear George for the wonderful music you gave us.

[beatlebangs1964]

He ain't heavy. He's my Beatle.

How would YOU like to sit on George's lap? And for the huskier, how about having George sit on YOUR lap instead?

Now you're talking! :clap3: :wink1:

[DizzymissLizzy909]

The other day a client asked what he could do to make his day better. I said, "Seriously, try listening to some George Harrison. I strongly recommend My Sweet Lord, Here Comes the Sun and any song from the Brainwashed CD. I've researched this. Trust me, I've studied this. Just listen to some George." The client thanked me!

Looks like you just may have converted another fan! I've suggested to others to listen to some George Harrison tunes to relax, but I haven't exactly gotten the same favorable response. :tongue1:

[Celebrian]

My stepfather is a guitarist and while he was helping me move over the last week, we were listening to Brainwashed. So, now not only does he have a copy, but he's trying to learn various songs just for fun. I'd love to play "Any Road" with him! :rock1:

[beatlebangs1964]

I like your stepfather already.

The George Harrison connection - I like that!

Yeah, my mom and I think he's a keeper!

My thought for today: I adore "I Dig Love." I think it's completely underrated, but that's just me :teeth1:

[Sally]

George has got "come to bed" eyes and a "take your clothes off" voice.


I love George because he can be a sex idol, a spiritual guru, a friend and million other things.

He was my perfect man on all angles.

[LittleDarlin909]

Bangs, my dear, this is from the "Reply In Rhyme" thread in Mind Games.


Bangs is wellknown throughout town
For her love of George's glorious crown
Onlookers beware

She'll loudly scream "LET IT DOOOOWN!"

The opening guitar on *I'd Have You Anytime* is stunning, to say the least! How in the world a mere mortal could produce such a sound is beyond me. . .

Darl,

That limerick made me :laugh5: :laugh6: SO HARD! I had not seen it - I'll check out the thread so the proper poet can be properly thanked. That is just TOO FUNNY! :laugh4: :joker:

And yeah, "I'd Have You Any Time" and "Be Here Now..." George's voice and guitar playing on those really touch your heart deeply...it does prove once again that George had the ability to touch and influence others deeply and for the better.

Not my favorite picture of George - don't care for the fake eyeballs at all. (I read that during the making of their first movie, fake eyeballs were made in case a certain ocular recording of an expression was needed in a scene).

With regard to the man's music, it just goes to show you that you can't dodge that Harrison influence (not that anyone would want to)...

[Celebrian]

Aye, but you cannot deny the humor in it, as was my purpose. :clown1:

No one can deny that George was a funny man.

[beatlebangs1964]

George was a very funny man! I thought he was such a panic in the Beatle movies.
That thing with "Arthur" makes me laugh to this day. And who could forget his impeccable delivery in "Help!" Damn, that man STOLE the show!

Oh, yeah. George was so adorable when he stomped out a beat in his Beatle boots.

[DizzymissLizzy909]

Marwa Blues is such a relaxing song. :cool1:

[beatlebangs1964]

Yeah, it really is. At first it could make you :cry2: It is so intensely beautiful you can almost picture George in Hawaii, a part of nature there and being soothed by it as well.

Right now I feel like listening to "Any Road" and "Stuck Inside a Cloud" and "Looking For My Life." Those songs are very intense. Extraordinary high caliber, those! :smile1:

[beatlebangs1964]

So do I! Pure George Harrison - the man as truly a gifted, ultra-extraordinary lyricist.



Caught up on me with intensity
Had no idea where I was heading
I only found it out when I was down upon my knees
Looking for my life.

Words I can readily identify with, Diz. Good
choice for your signature and an excellent
quote. Heck, it's just an excellent song,
Looking For My Life.

"Looking For My Life" is a song that many can identify with based on their needs and life experiences. I just LOVE it! :thumbu2:

Another underappreciated George Harrison work is "It's All Too Much." I just LOVE that song.

[DizzymissLizzy909]

It's unfortunate that I forget about "Long, Long, Long" because it is a lovely song. It sort of gets lost in the White Album shuffle.

See, Diz, I KNEW all along there are a lot of Hari Hair lovers out there! George Harrison had beautiful wavy hair that anybody would love. How would you like to brush it?

I'm in kind of a weird mood today. Say, how many of you noticed that George is the Beatle in the majority of racy threads and racy thoughts?

That's probably because George was only THE sexiest man to ever walk on the face of the earth. :eyebrows:

And yes, I would LOVE to brush George's hair! To get that close, to be able to touch it would've been fantastic. His hair was one of his best features, along with that killer smile of his.

I LOVE all the hornbaggery going on at the Palace! It has been proven time and again that George Harrison and that sexy head of thick wavy hair has released many a fan's inner hornbag...I just LOVE that! Had George been born during the Repressionist Era aka Victorian Period, I would not be surprised if Queen Vic, upon seeing that lush, thick brown crown would want George to let her touch that crowning glory! Talk about the ice is slowly melting...George and his sex appeal could certainly help thaw the sexual freeze that seemed to be the prevailing tone in those days. He could certainly bring many smiles to many faces...yeah!

Oh yeah, to brush that man's hair! His smile was beautiful - it was a paternal trait that showed up on our beloved George. I wonder who passed on that gorgeous head of beautiful wavy hair! He had the best hair of the fabs - natural waves, thick, lush and it held up well. He could make his hair look ideal and he inspired many people with oval follicles that they, too could have ideal looking hair! Say Diz, how would you like to wash his beautiful wavy hair?

[DizzymissLizzy909]

Say Diz, how would you like to wash his beautiful wavy hair?

I was just thinking about that! Oh, to be his hairdresser... I would've died! :laugh5:

[beatlebangs1964]

Like how I loved it when George introduced Paul on Ed Sullivan (8/14/65) and aired 9/12/65. I love it when George says, "For Paul McCartney of Liverpool, opportunity knocks!" Whenever I had people over for "Beatle Play" or engaged in Beatle role play at Beatle conventions, I always insisted on playing George. :smile1:

There is a woman who lives down the street from me who has a very fat little pug she named Harrison after George Harrison because he's her favorite Beatle.

I loved it when George did a commercial for VH-1 in the late 1990s.

Of all the Beatle solo videos, George's are the most interesting and fun to watch.

[LittleDarlin909]

I agree about the videos. There's no beating that backflip and dance sequence from *I Got My Mind Set On You* :laugh2:

Read a quote from a woman who slept with George just when things were not going well with Patti in the early 70's, think he was on tour. Anyway she said he was a "strong and considerate lover who put your needs first" :eyebrows: :eyebrows: :eyebrows: :eyebrows:

Where did you read this?

I would think that by the early 70s, George was no longer a randy, sexually green kid looking to satisfy his own needs, but by then a considerte lover after having been married. He would certainly have reached an age where he would have been more aware of loving ways to express intimacy. I would think that by that point in time, George would have reached sexual as well as other maturity which includes the truism that pleasure is to be mutually shared.

[LittleDarlin909]

I think the song *Right Thurr* by Chingy is a hip-hop version of *Let It Down*. The words are very similar, as is the accent.

[Pisces_Fish]

Ok, his hands and everything attached to them .... :inlove5:

[beatlebangs1964]

I read a long time ago that George had good table manners.

I guess that means but is not limited to the following:

1. He didn't fart or burp at the table :fart:
2. He didn't pick his nose or his teeth at the table
3. He used a napkin and didn't have food on his face
4. He didn't reach across the table for something he wanted
5. He didn't knock your glass over while reaching for something
6. He didn't grab food with his hands
7. He washed his hands before coming to the table
8. He sat with a napkin on his lap
9. He kept his elbows off the table
10. He chewed with his mouth closed and didn't talk with food in his mouth
11. He wiped his mouth with a napkin and not his arm and/or sleeve
12. He used cutlery properly
13. He didn't hijack the conversation at the table; scratch or make rude noises
14. He sat up straight in his chair
15. He didn't discuss things at the table that tend to make people queasy :dead1: :barf4:
16. He didn't insult his host's cooking or throw any food like the Three Stooges

I guess that could be a good operational definition of George's good table manners.

I guess that could be a good operational definition of George's good table manners.

No he just told one if his best mates he was in love with his wife over the dinner table that's all!:laugh5: :laugh5: :laugh5:

That was just poor judgment, not poor table manners. At least he didn't say it with his mouth full of food (although he probably did have egg on his face for making such a IMHO poor judgment call).

Was only joking, I expect he did have impeccable manners, how do you know he didn't have a gob full of mashed potato or something when he said it? :teeth1:

I don't think George ate mashed potatoes much.

I was kidding, also. There's no way to know if George made the statement with food smears on his face or on his clothes. A long time ago I read he had good table manners, so i thought I'd have a little fun with that.

Can you picture the Fabs engaged in a Three Stooges like food fight where they throw the stuff around? Imagine George throwing a pie at Paul and Paul and John throwing pies at Ringo and Ringo throwing a pie and it hits the wall instead of George! :laugh5:

:laugh5: :laugh5: Something worth seeing.

I personally would love to be in a mashed potato fight with Hari, and then our clothes accidently fall off or something........................................: wink2:

I would love to see him naked but he might have my eye out, he's so perfect.:laugh5:

On a serious note...

I like the way we can go from silly and racy to deep, intellectual and profound. The versatility that is offered...George was a master at evoking strong emotions of all kinds, an emotional virtuoso if you will.. That is reflected in the wide range of posts and topics on Crackerbox Palace.

Sometimes it's fun to let down your moptop and joke around and other times you want a serious, in-depth discussion. This forum provides something that meets just about if not everybody's need.

It's funny cos I fell in love with him when I was 12 in 1979 and the steamiest my fantasies got were holding hands, then at 14 it got to serious snogging, 16 abit of a fumble with no hint of a shag and now at the grand old age of 38 you can just imagine what goes through my mind. I will send you my little fan fic story based in a potting shed if you like, that will bring the hornbag out in anyone! :laugh5: :laugh5:
