Paul McCartney finally answered a fan’s question regarding his favourite George Harrison track, he said:
“‘Here Comes The Sun’. It is a brilliant song and the kind of song that’s really good in times like these,” he said while promoting McCartney III in amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Indeed, the sanguine hue in which the track was basked, made it the perfect slice of hope to assail the lockdown blues.
In Anthology, George describes the inception of the track. “‘Here Comes The Sun’ was written at the time when Apple was getting like school, where we had to go and be businessmen: ‘Sign this’ and ‘Sign that’. Anyway,” he explains.
“It seems as if winter in England goes on forever; by the time spring comes you really deserve it,” he said, delving into the song’s constitution. “So one day I decided I was going to sag off Apple and I went over to Eric Clapton’s house. The relief of not having to go and see all those dopey accountants was wonderful, and I walked around the garden with one of Eric’s acoustic guitars and wrote ‘Here Comes The Sun’.”
George Harrison’s song is one of 22 tracks that he wrote for The Beatles, and it features on their 1969 album Abbey Road.
‘Here Comes The Sun’ is the most streamed Beatles track on Spotify globally, with well over a billion plays, nearly double that of ‘Twist and Shout’ in second.
