What I feel, I can't say
But my love is there for you anytime of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love?
Tell me, who am I without you by my side?

What I know, I can do
If I give my love now to everyone like you
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love?
Tell me, who am I without you by my side?

Tell me, what is my life without your love?
Tell me, who am I without you by my side?

What I feel, I can't say
But my love is there for you any time of day
But if it's not love that you need
Then I'll try my best to make everything succeed

Tell me, what is my life without your love?
Tell me, who am I without you by my side?

Oh, tell me, what is my life without your love?
Tell me, who am I without you by my side?

What is my life without your love?
Tell me, who am I without you by my side?

Oh, tell me, what is my life without your love?

Not to turn this into a Weird Al thread - but his version really does do the song justice. Very surprised. But it’s the song that’s the real star.

This song is a pure 10.

Words can't adequately convey my love and appreciation of George Harrison, his quiet strength, and ineffable talents and contributions to music. incalculable.

I don't care what anyone says about this song - when I hear the first chords, I just turn it up and grin.  George Harrison was the understated Beatle, but he and John Lennon had some of the most introspective, beautiful, peaceful music ever. Leave me alone. I'm here with my eyes closed, smiling and basking in the warmth. Yeah, it's ten p.m., but with Harrison's music, it doesn't matter what time it is...
 
Who is saying anything bad about any of his songs? Anyone with any decent taste in music loves all things Beatles and especially George!

I accidentally ran across a youtube of Al Yankovic celebrating this song and George's life at the George Fest the Fonda Theatre in Las Angeles. 

So good, so damn good. 

You will find yourself jumping out of your chair and celebrating with him.  Google it today, google it now.  Don't miss this cover performance.  If you love this song by George, you won't ever forget Al's tribute!!!

Haven't heard the digital remix other than here.  The 2017 vinyl remix (which I have) is awesome, said to be different from all other previous, but closer to the original with less compression.

Barely remember that...the song that sticks in my mind is "Layla"--the long instrumental stretch with the piano--as you see all these wiseguys dead or dying. It forces you to reconsider the song and its emotional impact every time you hear it.

I just got the news a lot lately. Our companion here in RP, Cynaera  left us, and I was very sad. The tight circle of commentators active in RP, is poorer. The departure of someone we like and admire is always confusing and leaves a feeling of injustice. But Cynaera is in our hearts, here and whenever we do a review, renew his memory, his dedication to music, artists, the songs, his enthusiasm, an example of correction, education, personal trait of his messages, the connection with members of the RP.  But we should be happy and thankful for having had the opportunity to contact with a human-being of election.  Despite the physical distance, and probably never would have crossed personally, we can have a sense of empathy for a person in a place apart.  And Cynaera showed me that if what we say here in the form of review, is already important, if you have obtained an echo in a single person, it is worth.

"Is always worthwhile, when the soul is not small"

Goodbye My Friend. That you be at peace. Hasta siempre. R.I.P.

I've reprinted a few snippets of my IMDb review for the Geo. Harrison documentary below.  I didn't get any responses to my questions there, but I'd love to hear some input from the Radio Paradise rank and file---please chime in, one and all:

what was the song and where was the studio shown late in the movie where Paul and George were singing on a track?  

what was the final resolution of his film company, which produced a few gems among several films up through 1990?<<

This is from a forum on beatlesbible.com, so who knows if there's any truth in it ....

Ringo recorded a George song called I'll Still Love (aka When Every Song Is Sung) on his 1976 album Ringo's Rotogravure with George's blessing, who couldn't make the sessions because he was recovering from hepatitis. On hearing Ringo's version, George was "not pleased" (either with the quality of the recording, arrangement or mix – it's not entirely certain) and threatened to sue. There was an exchange of letters between their lawyers, and the dispute settled before court papers were filed (explaining why it's not entirely clear what George's problem was).

This was on the B-side of the My Sweet Lord single which I bought for my Mum when I was a kid.  I loved this side so much it got played continually with the arm off on the gramophone.  Probably drove her mad but I feel the tears every time it comes on.  Thanks RP xx

I'm just blubbering uncontrollably now. Didn't even know the lady, but, over the past few years I've been listening I'd come to respect & admire her for just about everything she pulled out of her hat, comment-wise.

What a great story! George has always been my favorite Beatle (oh, I went through a childish phase with that cute McCartney-face, but for resonance, Harrison's got a piece of my soul and my smile.)  This little snippet of history is very much appreciated, TerryS - thanks for sharing it! {#Daisy}

Living until recently on Long Island, NY (South Shore), where Sir Paul has been living of late (the more exclusive North Shore), he is also reputed by the locals to be quite the down-to-earth sort, quite decent to shopkeeps and others he bumps into when he goes around town.

When you rise to that rarified level, one of the rarest and hardest things to find is ordinary human interaction with people who don't treat you like anything special.

If I am not mistaken, I believe George produced them. I love Badfinger and this song too!

My fave solo album by any Beatle, but not my favourite song.
