Been listening to My Sweet Lord for decades now. George Harrison will live on forever through this most beautiful piece of music he created. Seeing your joy just listening to it is like hearing it for the first time. Peace be with you...

It's a song that never ever gets old. Totally irresistible.

I remember reading that George was asked about the Hari Krishna chant in this song and he said something like "it doesn't matter what you call God, just call him." I've always loved that. God bless you George, you're forever missed.❤ Thank you for choosing this song dear Sarah, you've made an old Beatles fan very happy. I adore this song, it always makes me feel so happy that I cry.🥰 I've subscribed and look forward to seeing your videos, sending hugs from a chilly Scotland :virtualhug:

It was actually conceived as a multireligious hymn. George was grown in Christian religion, but since 1965 he turned his faith to embrace the Hindu one. On his posthumous record's cover you can see a little cross next to the OM sign. Which means he always searched God in any possibile form and with any possibile name, no matter if you're singin' alleluiah, or hare krshna. That's very typical of the Beatles : never meant to divide, but to make your own thoughts grow, anyway. There is something magic on a young woman like you moving while listening to this song, 50 years after it was released. I'm sure 50 years from now, there will be another girl feeling the same surprise and delight - and then another, and then another one. That's the pure magic of the Beatles.: neverending, even when they're no more among us. Greetings from Italy

I would play this Master piece to my Mother as she was nearing leaving this earth and She would raise her hands towards the heavens and just enjoy it. I get teary eyed when I hear this beautiful song! Long may you live Mom!

Thank you for listening to this wondaful song. Most of us want to hear and see our sweet lord. George nailed the lyrics on this heartfelt song. We are all searching for what is out there.

Great song. It harkens me back to the 70's with Hare Krishnas at the airport soliciting $. One time a hare Krishna young lady pinned a small flower on my shirt. I said thanks & walked off. She chased me down & took the flower back cuz I didn't give her $. I told her it's better to give than receive but to no avail. I then took a jet to Honolulu. When I disembarked a young lady put a Lei of flowers (circle of aloha) around my neck (no charge).:trophy-yellow-smiling:

It sounds beautifully shiny and brand new every time I hear it. George Harrison had a way of writing melody that made you think you already knew the song, you just hadn't heard it.

Sarah you are so sweet, my Lord!
-
I'm having it played at my funeral, although I'm a Roman Catholic,I feel this covers all religions.
-
Sarah is so sweet. I love watching her videos. They make this 61 year old happy. I have a daughter in the US and I unofficially adopted another in Brasil and Canada so I can adopt her too!

That song literally changed the course of my life.

Thoughtful and sincere lyrics. Great song. Thanks George.
-
I've been playing this in my car on repeat for the last two weeks! Absolutely fantastic!
-
George Harrison embraced the Hare Krishna tradition (particularly japa-yoga chanting with beads) and became a lifelong devotee. He was a vegetarian, on religious grounds, from 1968 until his death.

Ever since my childhood I have always loved this song. 🙏✌️♥️

Love your reactions. Thank you for sharing them. And for playing such wonderful tracks ........ all a long time ago for me. Incredible how quickly it has all really passed. Nice to go back down memory lane but also to see a young person's take on these.
