"Something" is a song released by The Beatles in 1969. It was featured on the album Abbey Road, and was also the first song written by George Harrison to appear on the A-side of a Beatles single. It was one of the first Beatles singles to contain tracks already available on a long playing (LP) album, with both "Something" and "Come Together" having appeared on Abbey Road. "Something" was the only Harrison composition to top the American charts while he was in the Beatles.
John Lennon and Paul McCartney—the two principal songwriting members of the band—both praised "Something" as among the best songs Harrison had written. As well as critical acclaim, the single achieved commercial success, topping the Billboard charts in the United States, and entering the top 10 in the United Kingdom. The song has been covered by over 150 artists including Elvis Presley, Shirley Bassey, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, James Brown, Julio Iglesias, Smokey Robinson, Eric Clapton and Joe Cocker, and is the second-most covered Beatles song after "Yesterday".
During the 1968 recording sessions for The Beatles (also referred to as the White Album), Harrison began working on a song that eventually became known as "Something". The song's first lyrics were adapted from the title of an unrelated song by fellow Apple artist James Taylor called "Something in the Way She Moves" and used as filler while the melody was being developed. The song's second line, "Attracts me like no other lover," was the last to be written; during early recording sessions for "Something", Harrison alternated between two placeholder lyrics: "Attracts me like a cauliflower" and "Attracts me like a pomegranate."

  • Happy birthday George!

  • Happy Birthday George... :)

  • @mOmO96hellokitty- Ur so right, I agree 100%. If theyre happy Im happy. Nobody has any right to criticize two people who are in love. It wasnt anybodys fault in a bad way that John diorced Cyn. Nothings wrong w/ her or yoko or John. John was accustomed to strong women, he needed a strong woman to love, Cyn just wasnt as strong in that sense as Yoko. (I read the part about strong women in anthology.) Everybody should just lay off Yokos back and, to quote a former friend of John, "let it be".

  • I will now on associate brownies w/ a fantastic song.

  • @mOmO96hellokitty i think the same...

  • @Andy67274 muy buena, y no me extrañaria ya que si son tan tontos para creerlo lo son para escuchar a Justin Bieber XDXD...

  • Almost George's Birthday! <3

  • Haters can stop talking shit about Yoko. Seriously, get a life. Everyone is entiltled to their own opinion, and she made John so happy. That's all that matters. A true Beatle fan wouldn't be judging Johns wife. And everyones beautiful in their own way. Peace and Love guys. Quit hating.

  • Damn yoko is ugly. George and pattie are the only handsome couple
