Right? This song is a cool commentary on how we conform to other people's expectations and maybe we could lose our originality. At least that's what I get out of it.
The one and only George Harrison, the silent, the low profile, the musical -always-studying man, the mystic, the saint, the real Beatle. All that and More is this lovely little man we still miss so much. Hare Krishna.
This strikes me in a very peculiar way. Quirky, wholesome, somehow familiar - like an intro to a favorite show I had long forgotten. I'd appreciate if someone could help identify why I'm feeling what I'm feeling. His smile throughout is like a joke between him and me. A side of Harrison I've never seen before.
The familiarity may be because it was directed by Eric Idle, one of the members of Monty Python. The costumes, acting and shot choice are all very Monty Python
@@moritz471 sorry. My bad. I have trouble telling when someone is joking and when they're being serious. But it's true that Ringo doesn't get as appreciated as the other Beatles.

Am I the only one who poses the video and plays this part twice and maybe more times and start laughing, but no one understands why? I can't keep my face straight while this song is playing! XD
He’s so adorable, I literally can’t. I’m pretty certain half the things he did in this video were to make Eric laugh from behind the camera, cuz every now and then you can see this pleased look on his face after he does something silly. Also the pantomime princess Margaret absolutely sent me. XD

Brings back great memories of that place. We used to drive past George's house every other week, when visiting my mum's family who lived down the same road, in the seventies (and still do). My uncle used to go drinking with his brother Harry and my aunt worked with his sister Louise for years. Her daughter is actually named Louise after her. What a great talent and loss. Rest easy George.

My favorite song of George. I love that his wife, girlfriend at the time, makes a cameo appearance in the video. The playfulness of this video makes me giggle everytime I watch it. Doesn't get old. LOVE!
This is such a happy video even if a bit silly. What a sly grin and twinkle in his eye George has. A tender soul gone too soon. So happy he gave us such great music.
Yea. I sometimes feel there’s a tone of sadness in much of his slide guitar parts. I think slide can often times sound weepy. The guitar in this is no exception imo. I also love the slide in Blow Away.
Saw this on 'Right On', circa 1977, age 13 - the same film clip. No political correctness rubbish then, no-one saying 'sexual themes'! We just enjoyed it. And I still do.
I was also about 12 when I saw it on SNL and never forgot it. About 5 years ago I looked it up on Utube. The song is so catchy, it never left me after all those years.
@@jac5344 it is really catchy. i just heard it the other day for the first time. didn't like it at first, but i've now watched this about ten times. great video.
you are so awesome for saying that Jo. You know what? Are you a Brit? No reason for asking. I am a musician in Texas. I have always admired George Harrison and as I look thru these chats, i can see somany others that LOVED him. God I see so much realitys from this life now as I am truley focused in my life and music. Thanks for being here. My music collaboration with Adam Wakely is WAKLELY ANDERSON Touch The Sky if your interested. what alife these days huh.
Agree totally.....I always have a big smile on my face after watching this video. Quite possibly the most quirky and fun filled music video ever made. RIP George.
Yes George was way back in the fucking day but why on 🌍 Earth did George decided to do a damn out rated song called Crackerbox palace and did a video of it
Can confirm I swear I saw this video in a dream when I had the flu. But the weird thing is this is the first time I’ve seen this video or heard this song
Because this is not the original George Harrison that we new in the beginning. George had a bad or funky looking tooth that stood out or should I say was set back from the other teeth it was on his right.... and had fang like pointed teeth on each side. Check pictures of the earliest Beatle George. They used doubles. Before you all get your panties in a wad about this statement do some checking.
He still aged worse than the other Beatles did. No doubt about it. He already looked about 30 on the Let It Be cover when he was only 26. Still, he doesn't appear to have aged much from 1969 to 1977.
And another fact: the "woman" pushing the baby stroller at the beginning is Neil Innes, who played on a show called "Do Not Adjust Your Set"... with a bunch of future Pythons. He was also in "The Holy Grail" and "Life of Brian", and later did a parody movie of The Beatles called "The Rutles".
Yes - and I believe that is her at 2:36 in black bowler hat, suit and face make up - there is another video floating around explaining the making of Cracker Box Palace... he met Olivia in the states - she worked at a record or recording company
“ I was so young when I was born.” - George Harrison
Benjamin Button can't relate

I think that George talk about reenactment.

Or for the avians amongst us: I used to be an egg, but grew out of it

He had lovely eyes, & his son is an even better looking version of him However, Paul was probably the best looking
George, handsome. Paul, cute.
Cynthia Nolder I'm straight but i find george a beautiful beguiling man..deffo the best out of those you mentiopned..and what a talented man
His music is like a dream, it sends you into another world, time and dimension. No other artist or musician does this to me.
Brian Wilson...
@@leowilson67 true Brian Wilson was beyond talented
Ole George captures the moment fer Sure fer Sure!!✌️
George Harrison had a very funny sense of humour!! He also was able to communicate how important God and loving one another is. Miss him much.
well.. nobody is perfect
@@TimLondonGuitarist expect for george harrison
@@Sophiac1205 expect ? get pregnant ? sorry to disappoint, I haven't got a womb
@MichaelKingsfordGray the Beatles were fictional
@@TimLondonGuitarist I'm scared to ask what "the Beatles were fictional" means
Happy 80th birthday George Harrison!!!
:)
I was so young when I was born
My eyes could not yet see
And by the time of my first dawn
Somebody holding me they said
I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring such joy in Crackerbox Palace
No matter where you roam know our love is true
While growing up or trying to
Not knowing where to start
I looked around for someone who
May help reveal my heart someone said
While you're a part of Cracerbox Palace
Do what the rest all do
Or face the fact that Crackerbox Palace
May have no other choice than to deport you
I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring us joy in Crackerbox Palace
No matter where you roam know our love is true
Sometimes are good sometimes are bad
That's all a part of life
And standing in between them all
I met a Mr. Grief - and he said
I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
Was not expecting you
Let's rap and tap at Crackerbox Palace
Know that the Lord is well and inside of you
(It's Twu it's Twu)😋
Cracerbox
Thank you
Thanks for posting lyrics
Love the slide guitar. No one did it like George.
mac demarco does it like him now
Univac Derek trucks
Almog Zinman repeat, no one did it like George.
Duane Allman was the best slide guitarist that's ever lived enough said
But DayMan, i love you
"I was so young when I was born"
**Benjamin Button has left the chat**
Lol
Maybe Mr Greif, as well!
Very clever
That’s hilarious!! 🤣
My favorite song of George. I love that his wife, girlfriend at the time, makes a cameo appearance in the video. The playfulness of this video makes me giggle everytime I watch it. Doesn't get old. LOVE!
May I ask as who
I’d like to know who u mean, and which girl is the one u are talking about??
@@foofookachoo1136 when George is in the 4 poster bed. The beautiful brunette on the left.
@@OddBunches George is in the 4 poster bed. The beautiful brunette on the left.
@@RhondaMFazio-ny5kt Thank you!! I was wondering, also!
"I was so young when I was born" - George had a great sense of humor. Great weird video ! Rip George.
George Harrison: I was so young when I was born.
Us: This is what we called words of wisdom
This is such a happy video even if a bit silly. What a sly grin and twinkle in his eye George has. A tender soul gone too soon. So happy he gave us such great music.
Andrew RIP george Harrison: one of the greatest people on earth, within the top 5
Yea. I sometimes feel there’s a tone of sadness in much of his slide guitar parts. I think slide can often times sound weepy. The guitar in this is no exception imo. I also love the slide in Blow Away.
I know, I love George and this song!
I have great taste in music.😍
This is why we love George
Is it so very weird that George really looks like he is singing to me through the computer screen? I was almost blushing!
omg I felt that exactly!!! what a beautiful guy.... he has the most genuine eyes
@@user-hh9vp7tn6t That's because he's radiating spiritual love.
Yes
I feel the saaamee 😳😭
I love him
When I was a kid, I swear, I saw this video(promo) on late night TV and thought, 'I wish this guy and Paul McCartney were in the same band.'
he is!! thank god
Be careful what u wish for...
PaulGreen11 u knew paul mccartney but u didnt knew george harrison?!
omg no way!
Too funny!
0:17 george is making him laugh omg i love that😂
omg I love that
Aw he is so adorable 🥺
@@urlocal.antisocial i know right🥺🥺
Wait that's a him? 😳
"I was so young, when i was born"
Same
Saw this on SNL when I was like 12 ...my friends thought I was nuts for liking this song ...but George Harrison was a genius
Saw this on 'Right On', circa 1977, age 13 - the same film clip. No political correctness rubbish then, no-one saying 'sexual themes'! We just enjoyed it. And I still do.
I was also about 12 when I saw it on SNL and never forgot it. About 5 years ago I looked it up on Utube. The song is so catchy, it never left me after all those years.
@@jac5344 it is really catchy. i just heard it the other day for the first time. didn't like it at first, but i've now watched this about ten times. great video.
Oh man i'm pretty sure i bought the 45 record of this when i was young,
loved this song so much it's just wonderful as are so many of his songs
@@missmidnight4147 No sexual themes?? You know that the Beatles by themselves wrote lyrics with sexual meanings right??
Woah, this guy is good. He could probably even join the Beatles someday.
Link woah
Ismokesmarties iFunny We meet again.
you're kidding right? HAHA
The ''Beatles''? You mean that Rutles cover band?
Link Beatles? Nah they'll never make it . Just a fad .
Imagine if music videos were still like this
This the issue with the music industry lol.
Imagine if ANYTHING were still like this.
The world will never forget you, George! Absolutely, brrrrackets-y, marvelous!
I smiled, I melted and I cried throughout the whole video. I love George Harrison more than anyone in my life. Seeing him smile is just too pure.
you are so awesome for saying that Jo. You know what? Are you a Brit? No reason for asking. I am a musician in Texas. I have always admired George Harrison and as I look thru these chats, i can see somany others that LOVED him. God I see so much realitys from this life now as I am truley focused in my life and music. Thanks for being here. My music collaboration with Adam Wakely is WAKLELY ANDERSON Touch The Sky if your interested. what alife these days huh.
WAKELY ANDERSON
Yeah, he seems happy here.
RIP Neil Innes, AKA the Nanny at the beginning!
He also appears on the throne where a lot of people start appearing one after another at 2:38 wearing his duck hat!
I love Neil so, so much. RIP. 😔
@@IjigenTheHand And he's also the tough cop with the cross on his helmet.
Thank you!
Neil Innes = Mr Rutles for the uninitiated
So glad that the ‘genius’ of George Harrison was revealed before he left us.
Agree totally.....I always have a big smile on my face after watching this video. Quite possibly the most quirky and fun filled music video ever made. RIP George.
@@jimbo.fife.05 That Strange Days vid by the Doors was bizarre, too. But this one takes the cake. Even more than Bonzo Dog, too.
@@kentclark6420 Yes, Strange Days was a weird one too, but brilliant all the same...
George had such a great sense of humor and of course a deep sense of spiritual self. Miss him.
I still love George, he was so great in his solo career. And such an awesome person.
Yes George was way back in the fucking day but why on 🌍 Earth did George decided to do a damn out rated song called Crackerbox palace and did a video of it
this is the first song I've listened to in 2020
Same
Possibly because of the recommendations section on UA-cam
What a crackerbox palace of a year 2020 was!! Good choice.
This video is the result of having the flu with a high fever, then falling asleep & uncomfortably having weird dreams.
Got the flu too currently. Feel better soon!
Should be top comment
Can confirm I swear I saw this video in a dream when I had the flu. But the weird thing is this is the first time I’ve seen this video or heard this song
I thinks it's more a result of that stuff Eric Clapton sang about...
I have weird dreams sometimes like this even when I'm feeling pretty good. But I really could use a good dream like this
My Mom told me I was born at a very young age but didn't know others shared this experience too. Thank you George!
He and his son Dhani look almost identical with George at this age.
They sound very alike too
@@jeremyscungio16 Yes George and Danhi do sound a lot alike too.
All 70s guy who have kids their kids look like their twin like jimmy page, Robert plant, David Bowie and George
why does george look younger than himself in 1969
cocaine bro. cocaine
Beard
@@georchahlers9025 true
Because he didn't have to put up with a heroin junkie Lennon or his Communist wife
Because this is not the original George Harrison that we new in the beginning. George had a bad or funky looking tooth that stood out or should I say was set back from the other teeth it was on his right.... and had fang like pointed teeth on each side. Check pictures of the earliest Beatle George. They used doubles. Before you all get your panties in a wad about this statement do some checking.
I’m sorry, when he pops out the cradle and his hair just,, FLOOFS?? My heart.
George Harrison was my favorite Beatle. I was in the seventh grade when they were on Ed Sullivan show. Rest in paradise George.😊❤
Hey look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like George Harrison. It's a band from New Zealand (my home country!)
George Harrison loses like 10 years without his beard.
He looks like Weird Al
Me, too. I was practically a baby!
He is beautiful whatever.
My mother said he looked 37 at Bangladesh...
He still aged worse than the other Beatles did. No doubt about it. He already looked about 30 on the Let It Be cover when he was only 26. Still, he doesn't appear to have aged much from 1969 to 1977.
1:07 ah yes the commute everyone had when they try to find the way to school and a stripper lures you into the woods
Wow
Why does he look younger than he did when the Beatles broke up
He shaved his beard
No beard or moustache
He was born
He looked older with the Beatles because the stress didn’t do him well lol
Less stress..
This song + this video = mood switch and instant bliss. Very few artists can convey the genuine joy of being alive like George, and it's contagious!
Here’s a little fact:
George’s soon-to-be wife (at the time), Olivia Harrison, can be seen on the left side of the bed scene in this video.
I saw her too!
Playmation Nobi you saw her standing there
And another fact: the "woman" pushing the baby stroller at the beginning is Neil Innes, who played on a show called "Do Not Adjust Your Set"... with a bunch of future Pythons. He was also in "The Holy Grail" and "Life of Brian", and later did a parody movie of The Beatles called "The Rutles".
pockypurse THE HOLY GRAIL
Yes - and I believe that is her at 2:36 in black bowler hat, suit and face make up - there is another video floating around explaining the making of Cracker Box Palace... he met Olivia in the states - she worked at a record or recording company
