The Greatest George Harrison Song EVER!!

[Harbidge]

Paul's is nearing the final stages, so let's get George's competition up and running. I've been waiting so long for this!

Questio is, what LP do we start with first? Do we start with Wonderwall Music, Electronic Sounds or move straight onto All Things Must Pass?

[FPSHOT]

This is great Harb ...

My suggestion is All Things Must Pass...that is...if you wanna go from album to album... The first two are probably not that well known here...and as for Electronic Sounds...it does not have so much songs huh

[darkhorse]

I would say All Things Must Pass.

To avoid some of the problems of Paul's round, we should consider George's B-sides and "officialy released rarities", like:

Miss O'Dell (B-side to Give Me Love)
Deep Blue (B-side to Bangla Desh)
I Don't Care Anymore (B-side to I Don't Care Anymore)
Lay His Head (B-side to Got My Mind Set On You)
Zig Zag (B-side to When We Was Fab)
Cockamamie Business (released on the Best Of Dark Horse compilation)
Poor Little Girl (released on the Best Of Dark Horse compilation)
Cheer Down (released on the Best Of Dark Horse compilation)
Tears Of The World (on the original SIE album; released on the Songs By George Harrison Vol.2 extremely rare EP CD; re-released on the Thirty-Three & 1/3 remastered CD)
Sat Singing (on the original SIE album; released on the Songs By George Harrison Vol.1 EP CD)
Flying Hour (on the original SIE album; released on the Songs By George Harrison Vol.1 EP CD)
Hottest Gong In Town (from the Shangai Surprise soundtrack; released on the Songs By George Harrison Vol.2 EP)
Shangai Surprise (from the Shangai Surprise soundtrack; released on the Cloud Nine remastered CD)

If done in this fashion I think we'd cover everything that George officialy released, that is, not including the precious things he left on bootlegs for instance... (Oh, "Nowhere To Go", why didn't you get proper recording?)

I would also vote for getting out of the picture the ATMP instrumentals, and similars from other albums (like "A Bit More Of You" from Extra Texture; or "Hari's On Tour (Express)" from Dark Horse)... they are great in my opinion, but most people would rank them below many Harrisongs when there is a huge catalogue of songs with lyrics on them (same reason why we should not include Wonderwall Music).

Are we going to include the Traveling Wilburys material?

PS: Did you know that George played ALL the instruments in the "Life Itself" demo that appears in the Songs By George Harrison Vol.1 CD EP that comes with the Genesis Publications book? Amazing.

[ringo_rama]

I agree; start with ATMP but skip a few of the tracks that obviously aren't going to win.

Also, don't forget about the ATMP bonus track, "I Live for You."

[FPSHOT]

Let's start this thing first...

But as far as I am concerned...we should cover the whole George catalogue...and that goes beyond the so called "official album CD's"...

[twovirgins]

ATMP
beware of darkeness

something
stuck inside a cloud
the rising sun
what is life
dark horse

the inner light
WMGGW

[FPSHOT]

LOL...

Okay can we just wait a bit to let Harb start it?

[twovirgins]

oh ok

[Harbidge]

I'm guessing that nobody here has heard either Wonderwall Music or Electronic Sounds, so I'm going to start with disc 1 of All Things Must Pass...

Remember, pick your favourite three out of the following...

I'd Have You Anytime (included because Harrison co-wrote it)
My Sweet Lord
Wah-Wah
Isn't It a Pity
What is Life
If Not For You
Behind That Locked Door
Let It Down
Run of the Mill

By the way, if I miss any songs out then please let me know so I can lump 'em all together for another round.

P.S. Harb, wasn't If Not For You written by Bob Dylan?

P.P.S. Also, should we not consider My Sweet Lord a George song because he lost the plagiarism law suit? Just Kidding!!! Great Song!

[darkhorse]

My Sweet Lord
If Not For You
Run Of The Mill

Yes, "If Not For You" was written by Bob Dylan, but still a great Harrisong. If you know what I mean. :)

Harb - would you mind putting something on the Paul topic that this one is starting, so people more people are aware? I really wasn't expecting this one to start until the Paul one was over.

Yes, that means I'm not a regular visitor at the Palace (Sorry, Rob and Lorraine!)

[Harbidge]

There's only 5 songs on the third disc

Out of the Blue
It's Johnny's Birthday
Plug Me In
I Remember Jeep
Thanks for the Pepperoni

I'm not sure if there are any other tracks that can bolster this up to a bigger number? Anybody know of any before we start off this round?

[FPSHOT]

I believe when you would add 'songs' to these, like "I Live For You" it would be a lost round?

The Jam may be boring to some, but I love 'em

[darkhorse]

Couldn't we have done a "complete" All Things Must Pass round, in which we could have chosen 9 songs? That way we wouldn't have erased masterpieces like "Art of Dying" in favour of instrumentals (good ones, but instrumentals nonetheless) like "Thanks for the Pepperoni"...

Just a thought...

[ringo_rama]

Honestly, there's no way anything on the jam will make it past the next round; I agree on an ATMP second chance round instead.

[Jocelyn]

I agree too ... it'd be such a shame to see some of the great songs on ATMP not at least make the second round ...

[Weeping Guitar]

Yeah - ditto what the lasat 2 people have said.

[Harbidge]

So the plan of action is to scrap everything and start again, favouring every song from ATMP as one round where everyone votes for their 6 favourites from the list? Righty dokie then, let's get cracking with that.

Pick your 8 favourites out of the following...

I'd Have You Anytime
My Sweet Lord
Wah-Wah
Isn't It a Pity
What is Life
If Not For You
Behind That Locked Door
Let It Down
Run of the Mill
Beware of Darkness
Apple Scruffs

all things must pass first then all those years ago what a great tribute it was. all things was just a beautiful song what i love about his music is that is had deeper thoughts made you think and drew you into his soul it helped me understand him more.

[FPSHOT]

that is beautiful, it is what his music does to me too

This however is a sort of 'contest' thread so you are supposed to pick your favorite songs from an album which is on now like "Dark Horse". If you go to page one of this thread you will find out about it.

[Jocelyn]

So Sad
It Is 'He'
Maya Love

(btw, Rob, I like the quote in your sig :smile1: )

[BeatleGuy]

The obvious answer would be songs like Something but I am really enjoying George's demo versions of songs such as Old brown shoe and All things must pass.

Narrowing it down. Obviously (see signature) "If You Believe" is my fave.
Then, "Blow Away" and then, "Soft-Hearted Hana".

[834]

"Let It Down" has always been a favorite. Beautiful, melodic, and powerful.

[digdad]

Blow Away
Soft Hearted Hana
Dark Sweet Lady

[Beatle Girl]

If you ask me for the best song by George, that would be really diffcult to answer, but I will tell you some of my favorites:

*While My Guitar Gently Weeps
*Here Comes The Sun
*Something
*All Things Must Pass
*All Those Years Ago
*Stuck Inside a Cloud

[ringo_rama]

Love Comes to Everyone
Blow Away
Soft Touch

By far his most underrated album.

[frittaten]

Isn't It A Pity

btw: i think his best live perfomance was Cheer Down on Live in Japan.

[FPSHOT]

For 834, Beatle Girl and frittaten, the idea of this thread is to pick three songs which you love best from the album which turn it is and post that. One post per album.

Have fun and make a new choise please.

The album which is on now is "George Harrison" which has the following beauties

Love Comes to Everyone
Not Guilty
Here Comes the Moon
Soft-Hearted Hana
Blow Away
Faster
Dark Sweet Lady
Your Love is Forever
Soft Touch
If You Believe
Here Comes The Moon

[eyeswideshut]

Wah Wah (also from the great opening number to the Bangladesh Concert)
My Sweet Lord
Give Me Love
All Those Years Ago

[darkhorse]

Probably my least favorite George album... still has some good songs

Blood from a Clone
All Those Years Ago
Life Itself

[ringo_rama]

Unconsciousness Rules
Life Itself
All Those Years Ago

[bearkat77]

All Those Years Ago
Teardrops
Life Itself

[Legs]

Not one song that stands out really imo, and the best one isn't even an original George song, so that leaves just a few songs.

Life Itself
All Those Years Ago
That Which I Have Lost

[FPSHOT]

Maybe a little reminder ; only original Harrisongs are being nominated, so in this case no Baltimore Oriole (the best from the album) and Hong Kong Blues.

Life Itself
That Which I Have Lost
Save The World
