Harrison lost the plagiarism lawsuit but in a shrewd business move bought The Chiffon's record label for $500k before the judgement. Thus he paid the settlement to himself.

This is great. As a JEW I can only applaud this one. Milk the cash cow!

It's so tacky that this ever happened

Sure it's the same melody, but I think it'd be hard to say My Sweet Lord isn't the better song of the two on many levels. But yes the writers of He's So Fine do deserve to share the royalties. But man it has got to suck to realize you've plagiarized someone unintentionally. Let's face it, Harrison certainly wasn't in desperate need of getting a melody from someone else.

haha it's funny that throw in he's so fine at 2:56, you can almost hear the singer smirking

I prefer George Harrison's My Sweet Lord as opposed to this one. George sings it with more feeling...

They sucjk for one reason:THEY SUED THE GREAT GEORGE HARRISON!!!!!

Many of the notes are the same as She's So Fine, but if you listen to both songs by the chiffons back to back, you can hear some major differences too, even to the untrained ear.

@55102 I can do better than that: there are zero gods. Oh dang, forgot the Easter Bunny....
They covered this tune because of George Harrison's original sounding like their 1963 "He's So Fine." This happened during the lawsuit, which when over, Harrison being the owner of both tunes.
Harrison wrote "This Song" as a response to the trials and tribulations of the lawsuit concerning "My Sweet Lord" and "He's So Fine."

I like this version as well as george harrison's. The difference is that one is christian led, and the other iis eastern. I enjoy listening to good music it makes no difference to me who is singing..
