The song "Something" was originally intended not as a love song for his wife but as a devotional to Lord Krishna. He changed the "he" in the original line "Something in the way he moves" to "she" so that listeners would not be confused and upset.

When writing the song, George was thinking of Ray Charles to sing it. He did end up recording his version of the song in 1971.

There have been at least 150 different versions recorded, (the song "Yesterday" is the only Beatles song with more recorded covers) including one by Frank Sinatra who called it "the greatest love song ever written." James Brown's version was George's favorite.

Thought for Thursday

"try to realize it's all within yourself,

no one else can make you change.

and to see you're really only very small

and life flows on within you

and without you."

~George Harrison
