      The Beatles [Paul, John, George and Ringo] were the best. As solo artists, I still think they were the greatest; nobody compared them.

    About the video . . . George Harrison's widow and son, Olivia and Dhani Harrison, held an online competition in which filmmakers were invited to create a video clip for "What Is Life". The winner would receive a $5000 cash prize and have their entry become the official video for the track, appearing on the George Harrison UA-cam channel and other media platforms. In November, Olivia and Dhani selected Brandon Moore of Oakland, California, as the winner. Moore's video comprises dance interpretations by Emma Rubinowitz and Esteban Hernandez of the San Francisco Ballet, filmed in the streets and woods of the San Francisco Presidio.

      I copied the lyrics (all credit given) onto a paper, put the paper under the windshield wiper of "her" car and asked her to marry me that night. 25 years and two kids later she told me, "It just didn't work out" (I looked at her with an look of incredulity and said, "WHAT? Were we on a 25 year DATE?!") Regardless, should I ever meet a new "her", I'll do the same ... I LOVE this song as the words are the greatest expression of love I can imagine.

The winner would receive a $5000 cash prize and their entry would become the official video for the track, appearing on the George Harrison UA-cam channel and other media platforms. In November, Olivia and Dhani selected Brandon Moore of Oakland, California as the winner. Moore's video comprises dance interpretations by Emma Rubinowitz and Esteban Hernandez of the San Francisco Ballet, filmed in the streets and woods of the San Francisco Presidio.

      The dancer's 'dance interpretations' were choreographed by the video's Art Director/Choreographer Dana Genshaft who was at the time a soloist at San Francisco Ballet.
      The video scenes are quite close to each other and are located either side of Veterans Boulevard.

Yoko Ono didn't break up the Beatles. They broke up because they all had too much creative energy to be contained in one band. Especially after 10 years of ridiculous success.

      Unfortunately, George closed up--after John's murder
      Just imagine the tours he may have had:: Those with Dave Mason, Eric Clapton, Dylan, Lynne, Petty, Orbison, Frampton--many other legends likely would have shown up, too!

Beatles' numbers always recall the top deck of the school bus and the girls from the girls' grammar. Ah, the memories!

She did a good job with them, I think.

    I get the art of the video. Youth wonders about the meaning of life as independence is gained (symbolized by the girl leaving home). Leaving the playground behind she ponders death in the cemetery and celebrates (not fears) its inevitable rapture. Then the inexplicable chemistry erupts as she encounters love. This is true to George Harrison's spirituality.

      That is a great take on the video. The song could have been a Beatles song (instead of a solo effort), as GH wrote it while still in the Beatles! Shame it was ignored by McCartney and Lennon

      George is a Hindu, so I’m sure the song has nothing to do with the Christian Creator.

      Auditioned on the top deck of a double decker bus to John Lennon with Paul McCartney there as his recommendation. Probably the most unbelievable audition of all time in the simple but magical Beatle way. Hahaha flaming amazing.

      When I first heard this four or five years ago, I thought it was from very late in his career. I was shocked to find out it was from 1970, and probably written even earlier.
