George Harrison Shines With ‘What Is Life’
George Embarks On His Solo Career!
George Harrison was the youngest of The Beatles, and by far the quietest and most shy when compared to the bombastic personalities of John Lennon and Paul McCartney. When he released his 1970 album All Things Must Pass and hit single ‘What Is Life’, we actually got to see just how talented George was now that he was out from behind the curtain and thrust into the spotlight. The result was absolutely amazing!
Just How Talented Was George?
George Harrison joined The Beatles when he was 14 years-old, impressing Paul McCartney with his skills as a guitarist. He also played and mastered over 26 instruments over the course of his life!
It’s clear that George Harrison really was a wonderful musician and songwriter whose talents weren’t fully realized until after The Beatles disbanded!
‘What Is Life’ has a lot of elements that we’re familiar with from The Beatles – it’s extremely catchy and has a strong pop undertone to it as was common with Beatles tunes, but George’s guitar playing and phenomenal voice on the track are what made people sit up and really take notice of what he was capable of!
+ What Is Life lyrics +
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, oh
Tell me, who am I without you, ooh, 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, ooh, by my side
Tell me, what is my life without your love, oh
Tell me, who am I without you, ooh, 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, oh
Tell me, who am I without you, ooh, by my side
Oh, tell me, what is my life without your love, oh
Tell me, who am I without you, ooh, by my side
What is my life without your love, oh
Tell me, who am I without you, ooh, by my side
Oh, tell me, what is my life without your love, oh
Tell me who am I without you
