Did George Harrison Cry When 'Something' Was Lost?


How would you feel if Eric Clapton stole your wife? And if you had written a multi-million dollar single, one of the most famous songs associated with a little band called The Beatles..... and she left you.

Listening to "Something" tonight, I pondered this. Such a beautiful, simple song about simple love and nothing more. Cynically, my first thought was how awful that must have been. Rethinking it, moments later as the song continued, and it made me realize that no matter what, George Harrison would be grateful hearing that song, throughout his life, no matter the circumstances.

Thanks, George.

I have the book with the story about Patti Boyd. Feel free to pick it up. Maybe it's better to just love the song though. And ponder.
