George Harrison - All Those Years Ago

Lyrics:

Hear them shouting all about love
While they treated you like a dog
When you were the one who had made it
so clear
All those years ago.

Hear them talking all about how to give
They don't act with much honesty
But you point the way to the truth when you say
All you need is love.

Living with good and bad
I always looked up to you
Now we're left cold and sad
By someone the devil's best friend
Someone who offended all.

We're living in a bad dream
They've forgotten all about mankind
And you were the one they backed up to
the wall
All those years ago
You were the one who Imagined it all
All those years ago.

Deep in the darkest night
I send out a prayer to you
Now in the world of light
Where the spirit free of the lies
And all else that we despised.

They've forgotten all about God
He's the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was
so weird
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago

Who the hell cares which "Beatle" is better than the other? John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison & Ringo Starr only had one intenion in their music career. Do what they love to do and make people happy with their music. Give them credit for that and STOP the troublemaking bashing!! THANK YOU!!

there is too much hate in the comments. George Harrison had one wish, and it was for all of us to love each other. Lets respect his wish.

@kafata1- I have no issue with praise or even enthusiastic adulation.

What troubles me here at Harrison videos is the constant drumbeat

of lies and myth-making. I will gladly quit leaving the TRUTH about

George when you and your kind quit trying to make him out to be the

2nd coming of Christ. George Harrison was a good soldier. He did

what he was told. However, music never came to him easily as it did

to his older, wiser band-mates. George always struggled with music

and lyrics.

@TwoUselessLegs

Don't bother replying, I obviously love George and his music, you clearly have some personal vendetta against him and neither of us is likely to change opinion. Let's just leave the comments section clear for those who want to appreciate the song :)

[kafata1]

@TwoUselessLegs haha, what's your problem, mate? Where's all this hate coming from?

The man said depending on material possessions was evil, not having them. And he smoked way before he knew just how bad it was and more importantly, before he converter.

His "biggest hit" was unconsciously plagiarised, it can happen. In any case, he made loads of better music, and all original.

[TwoUselessLegs]

@kafata1 - George was a "splendid" human being?

Wow! I simply don't know where this myth-making comes

from. This is a man who preached the evils of materialism

while he lived in a 120-room mansion. This is a man who

while preaching that while we take care of the planet we

should also "take care of ourselves"...all the while he had a

cigarette hanging out of his mouth. He finally died of it.

As for his music, keep in mind that his biggest "hit"

was PLAGIARIZED. Simply SPLENDID!

Love this song, and it can apply to all of us. I can hear it again and again, or is it listen? Actually, either, it's already in my head.

[kafata1]

@TwoUselessLegs haha. Well, you're entitled to your opinion, I suppose.

I, for one, think George was a brilliant musician, overshadowed by John and Paul. That, and a splendid human being.

I imagine you can at least appreciate this song, considering it's dedicated to John with George's love.

Great song

All I Can Say Is That No Matter Who Bashes Who, It Can Be Either,The Beatles,Lennon's Solo Career,McCartney's Career,Harrison's or Starr They All Had Something To Contribute they were more than just a Band They Were Human Beings and In My Opinion The Best The World Will Ever Witness
