    I can’t believe I need to say this but don’t take this list personally, if I place a song you like low that doesn’t mean I’m saying it’s bad, I like every song on here just some more than others. We all have our opinions.

    My favorite Harrison Beatles Songs: 1) Here Comes The Sun 2) While My Guitar Gently Weeps 3) Something 4) For You Blue 5) I Need You 6) Love You To 7) Don't Bother Me 8) Think For Yourself. I also liked the Lennon-McCarney written songs that George sang, 9) Do You Want To Know A Secret and 10) I'm Happy Just To Dance With You. 11) Chains and 12) Devil In Her Heart and 13) Taxman were okay.
    I did not like: Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby, Only a Northern Song, Piggies, I Want To Tell You, Within You Without You, and Roll Over Beethoven.

    I like your rankings, ik I'm late but don't listen to the comments, when it comes to Beatles, no matter what your list is, there will be people saying "How is X song so low?" because most of their music is good, so that means a good song that people like has to be placed lower, and when a song is placed lower, people think you're saying it's not good.

    How could you put Within You Without You so low it's 1 of his greatest Beatles tracks. Also It's All Too Much is much better than 18 it should be in the top 10 and Old Brown Shoe is much better than 23. Still I think you got the top 4 right, i love While My Guitar Gently Weeps.

    I agree with #1, and the next 2 had to be the Abbey Rd numbers. Off Revolver, I much prefer Taxman (#6) to I Want to Tell You (#4). I think Blue Jay Way (#26) is one of his best.
    A number of these songs I don’t think of as Harrison songs. I was expecting songs he wrote. I trust they were all songs he sang, some I didn’t realise.
    Well done, anyway. Thanks for the entertainment.

    A George Harrison nunca le dieron la oportunidad de participar con más de sus excelentes canciones en los álbumes, mientras Lennon & McCartney disputaban entre ellos una lucha de egos Harrison se superaba así mismo para estar a la altura de sus compañeros. All Things Must Pass es la prueba de cantidades de buenas canciones que serían desechadas en la época de los Beatles. George Harrison era grandioso.

    I´m so tired of this narrative that George was held down by John and Paul. In reality, he composed 3 fantastic songs for the Beatles, the rest were mediocre. So I don´t understand why John and Paul would give him more songs before these 3 great songs. It makes no sense. As soon as George started composing great songs, he was allowed more songs (Abbey Road). Stop blaming John/Paul for George not being great early on.

    braudabo-ranking of the most abortive Harrison tracks with the Beatles:
    1. I need you
    2. You like me too much
    3. I'm happy just to dance with you.
    I'm referring more to the musical, than to the lyrical part. I rank all the Indian songs among the TOP 10 of his best, because they are wonderfully exotic and extremely essential in their influence on the further development of ethno-pop.
