this may just be me, but if you look closely at George's eye at 4:15, you can see a sort of shimmer of light, as if a tear... does anyone else see it?
@Bmcgov133 yes- that's Dhani Harrison, George's only son- who is also a musician and has his own band and played at the Concert For Geroge- the tribute concert
Yes, his name is Dhani. At the Concert for George, Paul McCartney remarked that with Dhani on stage it looked like they had all gotten older while George had stayed younger. Dhani has also taken some photos will his girlfriend looking a lot like Olivia and George for some magazine. Its all on the web if youre interested.
Nice to hear! I never heard about it? I just love those films already made about the Beatles like "Backbeat", "The hours and times", "The Linda McCartney story", is there any one else made?
It says at the very beginning that it is not a well known fact, but George died at Paul McCartney's house.
Fun fact:
The house is located on Heather Drive in Los Angeles, California. The death certificate lists the address of Gavin de Becker, but that was given so the fans wouldn't make Paul's house a shrine of sorts by besieging the neighborhood constantly since it was the house George died in.
How cool was that !!!!!!! We all are going to miss George !!!!! I met him once at a party in N. Y. in the early 70's. He could'nt have been nicer . Such a sweet guy . R.I.P. George !!!!!!!! It was great to see Paul there !!!!!!!
Does any one know why Tom Hanks was privy to the photo shoot? Of all Georges close friends to include Jeff Lynne, Ringo, Tom Petty, etc one has to wonder where Hanks fits in with all this.
Mr. George Harrison!!!, I don´t really know why until 2009 He got that Star.... but it is nothing compare with how much the entire world loves George !!!
it was well known among the beatles fans that george had died at Paul´s house? I mean, if i am not wrong, at that time the press talk about another place.
Also can someone please explain me what name does the man say in order to joke about it?
It wasn't all that well known. I live very close to LA and it was announced here once where George really died. Otherwise, like in Linda McCartney's death, you were told different places. Got into many a debate with other Beatle fans demanding to know where I got my information. 99% didn't believe it.
Just to clue you in, me my boyfriend and a friend clean John's, The Beatles and now George's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. When a star is awarded posthumously they have to wait 5 years before it can be considered. Money has to raised and at least 2 members of the family have to okay it and schedule to be at the unveiling. This star was okayed nearly 2 years ago, the scheduling was a different story.
True but most likely he would not have wanted it. While alive, he would've had final say so. They even said, I think it was Eric Idle, that he would've thought it as being ridiculous.
Well, he deserves it more than Ryan Seacrest. What has Ryan done besides annoy the hell out of us for eight boring years of American Idol. George has had billions of fans for over 40 years!
I agree but it isn't a question of who is more deserving, it's really a question of who really wants it. And American Idol is only boring if you watch it. If you don't.....hehe......it's not boring.
What a fun event! I was glad I went to see the unveiling of the star. George is my favorite Beatle and this was such great and poignant tribute. By the way, thanks for using my poster at the end of your video.
lol why did paul wipe the star with a tissue?
