@@eric669 You could say the same thing about the lesser known songs from any major artist. People aren't going to know EVERY song by an artist unless they're huge fans. This song isn't "uNdErRaTeD" just because it's not as popular as his other songs and most people haven't heard it. It's still George Harrison - one of the most famous people in human history and one of the most celebrated musicians in musical history. Dude is so well loved that even his most obscure songs get MILLIONS of views on UA-cam alone. That doesn't even account for Spotify, iTunes, and the original album sales from back in the day. An underrated song wouldn't have 1.2 Million views and a comment section full of people praising it from all over the world. ...and using the word underrated in almost any context regarding the Beatles is just butchery of the English language. Lmao I don't know why people have become OBSESSED with misusing that word - and then insisting that they're using it correctly when they get corrected on it. Saying that this song is criminally underrated is _really_ just you claiming to have better musical taste than most people - like you're one of the few people who gets the true genius of this misunderstood song that should be known by everyone on earth. It's lame. Just say that you like the song... There's a reason more people know about "Here Comes The Sun" than his mid 70s song about race car drivers. Lol Use some common sense.
@@clicheguevara5282 thanks for your long lecture on the matter, perhaps you should warn also the 73 (and counting) people who liked my comment about the perils of using the 'underrated' word on UA-cam.
When I was a teenager, I really liked "Faster", because as an introspective kid I could appreciate the song as George's metaphor for his own life. Despite all the fame he'd achieved ("chose a life in circuses"), people didn't understand that his goal was still all about self-improvement ("pulled out some poor machinery, worked til the pieces fit"), but that was okay. ... years later, I learned the song was literally about how George Harrison liked watching car races.
Agree ! We also forget George Harrison wrote The Beatles ( The Quarrymen) song "In Spite of All The Danger" with Paul McCartney in 1958. Paul McCartney plays this song at his current concerts. Then in 1960 the Harrison - Lennon composition "Cry For A Shadow". Already a writing talent in his teenage years !.

George was a regular visitor to the British Grand Prix. He gave a lot of support to Damon Hill when he became World Champion in 1996. In an interview not long after George's death Damon spoke very highly of him
George was a Motor Man. That love of cars was one of many interests. The first Beatle to have a licence and fair driver himself in race cars and a Great Friend of Sir Jackies. RIP George Harrison MBE.🌹🕊
@@haroldhatley4275 I read somewhere that Here comes the Sun is the most requested Beatles song of all time. That's gotta stick in Paul's craw. Heh heh ...
George Harrison wrote this song in tribute to his love of Formula One Grand Prix car racing. He was at many of them where this song was played on the P.A. just before the command to start engines. I saw all this first hand at the Long Beach Grand Prix held on the downtown streets there. If you look closely in the video, where he's riding in the back seat playing a guitar, they pan to the chauffeur who is driving. It's three-time champion of the world Jackie Stewart.
all George's solo songs makes me wanna dance with nature.. his songs literally sound like enjoy life and good vibes and wind dancing the trees..does that make any sense???
Harrison dedicated the song in his album credits to "the Entire Formula One Circus" and to the memory of Ronnie Peterson, who had died in a crash at the 1978 Italian Grand Prix.
The more I learn about George Harrison and his wide range of music the better this Earth becomes! My whole life has changed thanks to the one and only, George Harrison! Thank you George, you beautiful human being! ❤️
Except for when he was doing mountains of cocaine and screwing around on his wife. Don’t get me wrong, I like George’s music, but he was no saint. And certainly didn’t walk it liked he talked it.
I don't remember him ever presenting himself as a saint. That's the problem. That's what the commenter means. George walked the walk. You don't tell people to give peace a chance if you don't do it yourself. You don't tell people the love you make is equal to the love you take if you're telling members of your band their songs are no good and they can't play their instruments. These are two people who talk the talk, but do not walk the walk. George Harrison never ripped Eric Clapton to pieces in song. He had right to, no matter if he cheated on Pattie or not. That's one of his best friends. Ringo Starr never ripped George Harrison to pieces for cheating with Maureen. But even Maureen would tell you that was not a physical affair. It was emotional at best, and her marriage with Ringo was really over. And I think in 1974, George Harrison wanted NOTHING to do with any other Beatles, even Ringo, once that Apple got thrown out. You can see how happy he is to finally sign those papers. And after that Ringo appears less on Harrison albums. He even sues the guy. George sue Ringo???? What???? George took a black eye for Ringo! Harrison, and this is only a theory, wants to get so far away from the other 3, but specifically John and Paul, that he'll do anything to do it. And drugs don't help make the best choices. But he never told the audience he made all the right ones did he. He never once sits there and tells his audience "I've got God, I'm better than you, you don't know anything." Not once. So the tag he gets as a preacher is just nonsense. Half the time he sits there saying he fucks it up too, but he still believes in God. Whether that be Krishna, Christ, Buddha. Whatever THAT is, that transcends the Bible or texts or reality. Whatever THAT is, he believes in it. Even when he fucks up. THAT'S walking the walk. He did not present himself as a Holy Man. He presented himself as a man on a journey seeking the Holy. The Divine. And if you wanted to join him on that journey, you could. And if you didn't, you didn't have to. You had all the old Beatles songs, you can still enjoy them. He had moved on. And he was in a band where two people just did not SEE him. They still viewed him as a teenager in school, long into their adult lives. And that's just messed up. You still treat someone like they're a grade behind you when you're in your 30's and 40's? The dude is only 8 months younger than McCartney. I got friends who are 8 months older than me, and somehow this has never come up in the decades I've known them. Nor do they look down on me because I'm 8 months younger than them. When you're 13 or 16, that shit can matter. THEN YOU GROW UP. @@stormbringercoming8105
This song is so perfect, it's like a painting...the melody, the lyrics, the orchestration, the acoustic and slide guitars, and of course George's sublime vocals, all complementing each other. Like so much of George's other work, understated and powerful at the same time.
When you love F1 and you love The Beatles and George of course, I cannot believe that someone in the past had the same tastes as me, I mean that it makes me very crazy and incredible that my two great inspirations and passions are the beatles and F1, and this song has both, george harrison and F1. Love you George ❤️
0:09 the legendary François Cevert, the Jackie Stewart's ward and a very talented and charismatic driver, He had everything to be an outstanding champion, I hope in the heaven he has made that dream come true.

Lyrics: Chose a life in circuses Jumped into the deepest end Pushing himself to all extremes Made it - people became his friend. Now they stood and noticed him Wanted to be part of it Pulled out some poor machinery So he worked 'til the pieces fit. The people were intrigued His wife held back her fears The headlines gave acclaim He'd realized their dreams. Faster than a bullet from a gun He is faster than everyone Quicker than the blinking of an eye Like a flash, you could miss him going by. No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say He's the master of going faster. Now he moved into the space That the special people share Right on the edge of do or die Where there is nothing left to spare. Still the crowds came pouring in Some had hoped to see him fail Filling their hearts with jealousies Crazy people with love so frail. The people were intrigued His wife held back her fears The headlines gave acclaim He'd realized their dreams.

No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say He's the master of going faster. No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say He's the master of going faster.
One of my all time favorite George Harrison songs. Harrison dedicated "Faster" to "the Entire Formula One Circus" and to the memory of Ronnie Peterson.
The driver who sticks the most to the text of this song is undoubtedly Gilles Villeneuve, vice-world champion of 79. Of all the drivers hired by Enzo Ferrari, he was his favorite. Gilles was highly revered by both fans and fellow drivers for his extraordinary talent and bravery on the track. His determination made him one of the most popular Formula One drivers in history. "Villeneuve had the best talent of all of us. Whatever car that you put him in he would have been quick." Niki Lauda
Sewlutions One of his best albums; Course I’m a bit older than you, probably. I bought this in the 70s. Still have the album. What I don’t have in a phonograph. 😂
God I miss George. Wonderful music that lasts a lifetime and beyond. Here Comes the Sun was my favourite music as a kid and still is forty years later. Says a lot for dear George.

So funny to discover the one who drives the car of George Harrison in this clip! 😂😂 Excellent!!!👌🏎️🛞 Thanks to George Harrison and Jackie Stewart for their talent and their humor ❤️ From France 👋
Last year when we couldn't go anywhere, I bought a 1/12th scale model of the Tyrell P34 and spent a couple of months putting it together. I've loved that car since I was a little kid.
Olivier, if you like this song, you should listen to the entire George Harrison album,(self titled) circa 1979 that it's on; not one mediocre/bad song on the entire album! Enjoy!
Good music doesn't die in our eyes but eyes of the young today, it'll never be brought up. Lucky I had family that loved all sorts of different music. Take it for granted but this here is just brilliance. On yourself Georgey 🎧🎸
Gran fanático de la fórmula 1 Harrison dedico esta canción a Nikky Lauda y tuvo el privilegio de conducir..que genioooo, el mejor de los Beatles sin duda

Lyrics:
Chose a life in circuses
Jumped into the deepest end
Pushing himself to all extremes
Made it - people became his friend.
Now they stood and noticed him
Wanted to be part of it
Pulled out some poor machinery
So he worked 'til the pieces fit.
The people were intrigued
His wife held back her fears
The headlines gave acclaim
He'd realized their dreams.
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash, you could miss him going by.
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say
He's the master of going faster.
Now he moved into the space
That the special people share
Right on the edge of do or die
Where there is nothing left to spare.
Still the crowds came pouring in
Some had hoped to see him fail
Filling their hearts with jealousies
Crazy people with love so frail.
The people were intrigued
His wife held back her fears
The headlines gave acclaim
He'd realized their dreams.
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash, you could miss him going by.
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say
He's the master of going faster.
No need to wonder why
His wife held back her fears
So few have even tried
To realize their dreams.
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash, you could miss him going by.
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say
He's the master of going faster.
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true, they say
He's the master of going faster.

Two of my favirote thing George Harrison and f1
Harrison made a promotional film for the single, which includes footage he had shot at the Brazilian Grand Prix in São Paulo in February 1979.
where can I find that?
So funny to discover the one who drives the car of George Harrison in this clip! 😂😂
Excellent!!!👌🏎️🛞
Thanks to George Harrison and Jackie Stewart for their talent and their humor ❤️
From France 👋

Dedicada a Jackie Stewart, recordemos que George fue fanático de la F1, un grande el beatle quieto, saludos desde Chile🤟🎸

Sabandija Asquerosa ikr

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷✌✌🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thank you so much George Harrison.
‘Right on the edge of do or die. He’s the master of going faster.’ Have never heard this marvelous song by George, I like a lot.
I was there at this magic time in F1, will never be another…🔥❤️🔥🏁
First hearing/seeing this on July 13, 2021.
I thought I'd been paying attention.
Instead...nice song from the grave.
Thanks George.
I loved the guy.
When a legend drives around a bigger legend. RIP George Harrison the world misses you
yeah!
"Magnificent".
Always will remain my favourite Beatlei
George harrison el mejor beatle
Love recognizing all the F1 cars, like the Brabhams and Tyrells
Me too
Last year when we couldn't go anywhere, I bought a 1/12th scale model of the Tyrell P34 and spent a couple of months putting it together. I've loved that car since I was a little kid.
I love you George Harrison ❤❤❤❤
For all the F1 heroes, from Fangio to Schumacher!!!
I can't believe that i'm the first commenter here and that there's not more views than that for such an incredible piece of music.
Olivier Dallaire Yeah but I'm first like.
Not only the song but the vídeo is also incredible !
Olivier, if you like this song, you should listen to the entire George Harrison album,(self titled) circa 1979 that it's on; not one mediocre/bad song on the entire album! Enjoy!
Good music doesn't die in our eyes but eyes of the young today, it'll never be brought up. Lucky I had family that loved all sorts of different music. Take it for granted but this here is just brilliance. On yourself Georgey 🎧🎸
I'm 15 and I love this kind of music!
Gran fanático de la fórmula 1 Harrison dedico esta canción a Nikky Lauda y tuvo el privilegio de conducir..que genioooo, el mejor de los Beatles sin duda
Being a musician who was very inspired by George Harrison and also a huge car fanatic, it's really cool to see that he was a car fan too
July 2024. Is anybody enjoying this really good song?
George Harrison captured so much emotion is this wonderful song.
The video is a great period capture as well.
Sept 2024 and YES! ❤❤
The best...Beatle George!
George maravilhoso! My favorite
Lol George Best
he cheered for Damon Hill who won the 1996 Title his dad Graham Hill was also a F1 Champion and i like how Harrison and Damon looks alike
Beautiful Song. I Tried To Find George At The Australian Grand Prix. GG❤
When Motor Racing was for real men. So many greats in the video up with George in Heaven. RIP ALL

Came out in 1979. F1 2029 should celebrate that song.

Canção M-A-R-A-V-I-L-H-O-S-A, eu sempre ouço.

LYRICS:
"Faster"
Chose a life in circuses
Jumped into the deepest end
Pushing himself to all extremes
Made it - people became his friend.
Now they stood and noticed him
Wanted to be part of it
Pulled out some poor machinery
So he worked 'til the pieces fit.
The people were intrigued
His wife held back her fears
The headlines gave acclaim
He'd realized their dreams.
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash you could miss him going by
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true they say
He's the master of going faster.
Now he moved into the space
That the special people share
Right on the edge of do or die
Where there is nothing left to spare.
Still the crowds came pouring in
Some had hoped to see him fail
Filling their hearts with jealousies
Crazy people with love so frail.
The people were intrigued
His wife held back her fears
The headlines gave acclaim
He'd realized their dreams.
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash you could miss him going by
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true they say
He's the master of going faster.
No need to wonder why
His wife held back her fears
So few have even tried
To realize their dreams.
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash you could miss him going by
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true they say
He's the master of going faster.
Great Lyrics! Thank You!
simplesmente emocionada com essa clipe, vendo o Ronnie Peterson, François Cevert, Jackie Stewart e tantos outros. George é icônico! ❤️
¿está el gran LOLE REUTEMAN?
Até o carro da Copersucar. Espetacular.
Sem falar na música maravilhosa do genial GH
Even appears Patrick Depailler while he was driving.
This is not one of George's better-known songs, but it's always been stuck in my mind.
@Magnolia Trees in the Meadow Hmm...I didn't say that it wasn't one of his 'better' songs; I said that it wasn't one of his 'better-known' songs.
Senna was The Master of Going Faster.
Of course bro , here in Argentina we love Ayrton
@@MadeInHeavenOk Oh, so good to know that. Senna was the fastest pilot indeed. But, Piquet was a much better pilot than Senna (in my opinion).
@@BrazukaSul Piquet may have been good in his time, but Ayrton was always more clever, for example when it rained he did it in a way that was almost like a dance.
@@MadeInHeavenOk Senna, Fangio, Clark and Piquet were the top 4 of all times. Hey, come to visit Brazil someday. Sun always shines brighter here.
@@BrazukaSulI hope one day to be able to travel to Brazil. Meanwhile, I am learning Portuguese little by little. PS Fangio loved Senna
For Sir Jackie Stewart who was my hero when I was a kid and still is
Mine was Emerson Fittipaldi.
I love the album this came from!
Starship Trooper his second best album!
Yes. Me too.
It's my favorite harrison album.
This man is GOAT❤️💓
George really loves fast cars especially F1, great GEORGE!!
I LOVE GEORGE SO MUCH 😭💕🥺
No sabia que George Harrison tenía excelentes canciones!!!
Ele era o melhor dos beatles, compunha menos musicas, aparecia menos, não tinha tanto ego mas suas musicas eram as melhores do grupo.
His whole solo discography is great aside from Dark Horse in my opinion. Though “Extra Texture” and “Gone Troppo” may not be for everyone either
Cool song
rest in peace gunnar nilsson
