The Beatles – „Something”

„Something” is a song by The Beatles, written by lead guitarist George Harrison in 1969. It was featured on the album Abbey Road, and was also the first song written by Harrison to appear on the A-side of a Beatles’ single. It was one of the first Beatles’ singles to contain tracks already available on a long playing (LP) album, with both „Something” and „Come Together” having appeared on Abbey Road. „Something” was the only Harrison composition to top the American charts while he was in The Beatles.

John Lennon and Paul McCartney, the band’s principal songwriters, both praised „Something” as among the best songs Harrison had written, or the group had to offer. As well as critical acclaim, the single achieved commercial success, topping the Billboard charts in the United States, and entering the top 10 in the United Kingdom. The song has been covered by over 150 artists including Elvis Presley, Shirley Bassey, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, James Brown, Julio Iglesias, The Miracles, Eric Clapton, and Joe Cocker, and is the second-most covered Beatles’ song after „Yesterday”.Harrison is quoted as saying that his favourite cover of the song was that of James Brown’s, keeping Brown’s version in his personal jukebox.

Something Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Beatles

Something in the way she moves,
Attracts me like no other lover.
Something in the way she woos me.
I don’t want to leave her now,
You know I believe and how.

Somewhere in her smile she knows,
That I don’t need no other lover.
Something in her style that shows me.
I don’t want to leave her now,
You know I believe and how.

You’re asking me will my love grow,
I don’t know, I don’t know.
Stick around, and it may show,
But I don’t know, I don’t know.

Something in the way she knows,
And all I have to do is think of her.
Something in the things she shows me.
I don’t want to leave her now.
You know I believe and how.
