Only A Northern Song was written by George Harrison and first appeared on the Yellow Submarine album.
Northern Songs was The Beatles publishing company, so they were in charge of paying royalties to the songwriters. Harrison had a bad deal and didn't always get a fair share of the publishing royalties. He took out those frustrations in this song Lennon and McCartney each owned 15% each while George Harrison only owend .8% in the companys shares.

@Atari2600Gamer I can see how I'm doing that, Within you Without you is good, it just goes a bit too long for my tastes.
-
@Powerstars321 by doing that you also insulted some of George Harrison's work
-
The lyrics reflect exactly what I'm thinking while this is playing.
-
TheDVabel George & Ringo kick Paul & John's ass all of the time
-
Within You Without You should have been on Magical Mystery tour, and this should have been on Sgt. Peppers.
-
This don't look different that the original....There is just no strange instruments in the background
-
I'd gladly replace "Within You Without you" on "Sgt Pepper" with this. See? We just made "Sgt Pepper" flawless.
-
this song nearly made it on to SGT PEPPER.
