Like John, he was taken from us way too soon. :cry:

A nice YouTube vid from 1992 singing Give Me Love

2. thanks for the reminder
My son has always loved George, and he was only four when George died (he's now 11). When he found out George had died, he came into our bedroom crying, absolutely inconsolable. His big sister had told him the bad news. But then he said, "Well, at least now he's with John," and he felt better, Poor little guy.

Peace, George.
:loveya:

6. My favorite Beatle.
The first Beatle's album I bought was Abbey Road. (ca. 1975, I was 11)

The best songs on that album were George's.

Hands down.

No argument.

Later on I discovered we shared a love of Python and Formula One racing.

RIP.

7. What a beautiful post about the 4 year old who said at least he's with
John now. I thought the same thing. Sometimes it's hard to believe we've lost half of The Beatles - it just doesn't seem right. :cry:

I know Olivia and Dhani are missing you more than ever on your birthday. Peace, always, my friend-and thanks for the soundtrack of my life.
