I bet I've heard this song at least 500 times since the early 70's, and I still like it.

I've loved this great song forever.  I also love listening to the instrumental only version on the expanded CD.

  What?!! I don't understand what you mean. Has something happened to dear Cynaera? Can anyone please tell me? I cherish that woman's spirit.

Ok, I'm sorry, folks. Been just popping in and out lately, not really reading comments very much.  I did suspect, from certain cryptic references here & there. Just found the Forum page. Oh, dear. 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. My sympathy and condolences go to her family and those close to her. May she be forever more in radio paradise.

Thanks to calypsus_1 for the tribute comment.

Words escape me —  but if I had to pick 10 of the greatest, most delightful, most indispensable rock songs ever — this would be on it. George was genius — but let's not forget that this album was produced by Phil Spector.

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.

Scorsese's documentary, George Harrison: Living in the Material World, is very, very good, a loving and overdue tribute.

If you want a treat, listen to My Sweet Lord from the reissued CD:  he re-recorded it with his son Dhani and it is a joy to listen to

Poor George (dead) and Phil (will be dead in prison). At least their legacy lives on.
