    The Beatles were an iconic British rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. Comprising John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, they became a global cultural phenomenon, revolutionizing music with their innovative sound, poignant lyrics, and distinct personalities. "Something," a track from their 1969 album "Abbey Road," is one of George Harrison's most celebrated compositions. The song stands out for its soulful melody, heartfelt lyrics, and intricate guitar work, demonstrating Harrison's growth as a songwriter. "Something" achieved critical acclaim and commercial success, further solidifying The Beatles' legacy as one of the greatest and most influential bands of all time.

    1969. All of them under 30, George was only 26 and they were about to split up. In just 7 years they wrote and recorded over 200 songs.

    Three big hits. Wonderful Tonight as well. George and Patti were drifting apart and both having affairs. When Patti left to go with George's best friend Eric Clapton, George was asked how he felt about it and said 'I would rather she was with my best friend than someone I don't know'. They all remained friends for the rest of their lives with George buying Patti a house when she hit hard times later in life. Frank Sinatra described Something as the greatest love song of the last 50 years..

    Clapton wrote Layla while George and Pattie were still together. Harrison wrote other songs about Patti...as did Clapton (Wonderful Tonight being one that springs to mind). Patti ended up getting with Ronnie Wood later on and he also wrote her a song or two. Patti is probably the woman with more songs about her than anybody else...even though Courtney Love has more about her than you'd think!

    George's wife-here Patti Boyd (she, Yoko, LInda and Maureen were ALL wives at the time) he met five years earlier when the Beatles were making their first movie, _A Hard Day's Night._ She can be seen in it in the train dining car scene where she says, "Prisoners?" and a bit later in the scene when they sing "I Should Have Known Better".

    One thing that almost everyone misses about this video is that at no point are any of the Beatles together. The video only shows the various Beatles with their various wives/girlfriends. The four Beatles were apparently not getting along at all -- they agreed to shoot scenes for the promo film as long as they didn't have to be with each other.

      What are you talking about? John invited Paul to join the Quarrymen and it was John and Stu who came up with the name Beatles. What did Paul have to talk John into? John was the one who decided to go with Brian Epstein, and despite protests to the contrary in the 70s was fully on board with the image change at the time. The only thing I can think of that John had to be talked into, was switching Pete for Ringo and that was spearheaded by George, but Paul was a part of the talking him into it process at least.

    According to George in a 1995 interview, the song wasn't about Patti but a generic love. He would know! Paul's bass lines were busier than George wanted but ultimately perfect for the lyrics. Ringo's drum patterns propelled the song along and Billy Preston's organ parts fit like a glove. George's iconic guitar solo is the stuff of legends and Martin's string arrangement the icing on the cake. A winner all round!

    A little background on the video, it was filmed after John said he was leaving the band the same time Something was released. When you see Paul & George looking grungy it's because they were both in major depression and hardly getting out of bed for a time or even bathing. The video was spliced together I believe today they call it editing. This is because it was shot on their own homes due to the breakup. Although John is the one who broke them up it was at the instigation and persistence of his wife Yoko Ono. Incidentally, Pattie did leave George but not until the early 70's. Later on she regretted the decision.

    Well, it depends on your definition of "soon". They would be married another 5 yrs, about half of their marriage overall to go. But yes, the spectre of Eric Clapton was already on the horizon and in a few months would be making his intentions known. But Patti had NO idea at this time.

    Please stop making things up. The longer each of your Beatles reaction videos go, the more ludicrous your claims become. You can see George working on Something in the film Get Back, in 1968. Clapton wrote Layla, about his desire for Patti in 1970, but his love was unrequited. She rejected his advances and Clapton turned to heroin. It was not until 1974 that Patti left George and took up with Eric, and she had a major affair with Ronnie Wood before that. They finally married in 1979. Also, although 4-5 years separate the British Invasion in 1964 and Something, the British Invasion does not mark the start of the Beatles. Their first proper single charted in the Uk in 1962.
