That Which I Have Lost
(Harrison)


He's fighting the forces of darkness limitation
Falsehood and mortality which bar him
The way back into the higher world
While his whole being is bewildered
He does not know - no law of action
Taking refuge inside himself and he's saying

I need someone to show me
Illumine my consciousness
Remove the dark from in me
And give me that which I have lost

As all had seemed lost a light from Heaven
breaking
A flash - inward illumination
Enriched his life more than any words can tell
He stood there, life renewed fresh as rain
Scales were falling from his eyes again
The bolts of his prison opening - he's saying

I found someone who showed me
Illumined my consciousness
Removed the dark from in me
And given me that which I have lost

You people don't have time to listen to him
You're too busy fighting revolutions
That keep you back down in the lower world
Your mirrors of understanding they need
cleansing
Polish away the dust of desire
Before pure light will reflect in them

You need someone to show you
Illumine your consciousness
Remove the dark from in you
And give you that which you have lost.

(Harrison)




Precious words drift away from their meaning
And the sun melts the chill from our lives
Helping us all to remember what we came here for
This is love, this is la la la-la love
This is love, this is la la la-la love

Little things that will change you forever
May appear from way out of the blue
Making fools of ev'rybody who don't understand
This is love, this is la la la-la love
This is love, this is la la la-la love

This is love, this is love
This is love, this is la la la-la love

Since our problems have been our own creation
They also can be overcome
When we use the power provided free to everyone
This is love, this is la la la-la love
This is love, this is la la la-la love

This is love, this is la la la-la love
This is love, this is la la la-la love
Oh, this is love, this is la la la-la love
This is love, this is la la la-la love [repeat and fade]

Love comes to Everyone
(George Harrison Album)
Go do it,
Got to go through that door,
There's no easy way out at all . . .
Still it only takes time
'Til love comes to everyone.

For you who it always seems blue
It all comes, it never rains
But it pours,
Still it only takes time . . .
'Til love comes to everyone.

There in your heart . . .
Something that's never changing;
Always a part of . . .
Something that's never ageing,
That's in your heart . . .

It's so true it can happen to you all; there,
Knock and it will open wide,
And it only takes time
'Til love comes to everyone.







Falso Comercial de Shampoo com George Harrison
Fake George Harrison's shampoo commercial
Bem que ele poderia ter feito tal comercial, mas é falso. Não achei nenhum comercial dele. Sei que ele era desligado dos bens materiais, talvez por isso.

Well he could have made ​​such a commercial, but it is false. I found no trade him. I know he was off the property, so maybe.



Blow Away
(Harrison)
Day turned black, sky ripped apart
Rained for a year 'til it dampened my heart
Cracks and leaks
The floorboards caught rot
About to go down
I had almost forgot.

All I got to do is to love you
All I got to be is, be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow Away, Blow Away, Blow Away.

Sky cleared up, day turned to bright
Closing both eyes now the head filled with light
Hard to remember what a state I was in
Instant amnesia
Yang to the Yin.

All I got to do is to love you
All I got to be is, be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow Away, Blow Away, Blow Away.

Wind blew in, cloud was dispersed
Rainbows appearing, the pressures were burst
Breezes a-singing, now feeling good
The moment had passed
Like I knew that it should.

All I got to do is to love you
All I got to be is, be happy
All it's got to take is some warmth to make it
Blow Away, Blow Away, Blow Away.

Crackerbox Palace
(Harrison)
I was so young when I was born
My eyes could not yet see
And by the time of my first dawn
Somebody holding me . . . they said

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring such joy in Crackerbox Palace
No matter where you roam know our love is true

While growing up or trying to
Not knowing where to start
I looked around for someone who
May help reveal my heart - someone said

While you're a part of Cracerbox Palace
Do what the rest all do
Or face the fact that Crackerbox Palace
May have no other choice than to deport you

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
We've been expecting you
You bring us joy in Crackerbox Palace
No matter where you roam know our love is true

Sometimes are good . . . sometimes are bad
That's all a part of life
And standing in between them all
I met a Mr. Grief - and he said

I welcome you to Crackerbox Palace
Was not expecting you
Let's rap and tap at Crackerbox Palace
Know that the Lord is well and inside of you.



* A canção foi inspirada pela reunião de Harrison com um homem chamado Grief. Em 1975 no Midem Festival de Música, Harrison conheceu o homem e disse-lhe que ele parecia o falecido comediante Lord Buckley (Harrison tinha admirado Buckley por muitos anos). Como hipótese ele teria, Greif era ex-gerente de Buckley, e ele convidou Harrison venha ver o velho Buckley  na casa de Los Angeles, que ele chamou de "Crackerbox Palace". Pensando que faria uma canção, Harrison anotou as palavras "Crackerbox Palace"  em um maço de cigarros e mais tarde escreveu a canção. A música inclui referências ao Greif ("Eu conheci um senhor Greif") e Lord Buckley ("sei que o Lord está bem e dentro de você").


*The song was inspired by Harrison's meeting with a man named George Greif. At the 1975 Midem Music Festival, Harrison met the man and remarked to him that he resembled the late comedian Lord Buckley (Harrison had admired Buckley for many years). As chance would have it, Greif was Buckley's former manager, and he invited Harrison to come see Buckley's old Los Angeles home, which he called "Crackerbox Palace." Thinking that it had the making of a song, Harrison jotted the words "Crackerbox Palace" down on a cigarette pack, and later wrote the song. The song includes references to Greif ("I met a Mr. Greif") and to Lord Buckley ("know that the Lord is well and inside of you")

When we was fab
(Harrison/Lynne)
Back then long time ago when grass was green
Woke up in a daze
Arrived like stangers in the night
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - back when income tax was all we had

Caresses fleeced you in the morning light
Casualties at dawn
And we did it all
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - you are my world you are my only love

And while you're in this world
The fuzz gonna come and claim you
But you mo better wise
When the buzz gonna come and take you away
Take you away
Take you away

The microscopes that magnified the tears
Studied warts and all
Still the life flows on and on
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - but It's All Over Now Baby Blue
Fab - long time ago when we was fab
Fab - like this pullover you sent to me

Fab
And You've Really Got A Hold Me
fab - long time ago when we was fab.

Life itself
(Harrison)


You are the One
You are my love
You send the rain and bring the sun
You stand alone and speak the truth
You are the breath of life itself, oh yes you are
You are the One

You're in my dream
I hold you there in high esteem
I need you more each step I take
You are the love in life itself, oh yes you are
You are the One

You are the one that I'd die for
And you're all that is real
You are the essence of that which
We taste, touch and feel

You are the One
No matter what
You are the real love that I've got
You are my friend and when life's through
You are the light in death itself, oh yes are
You are the One

They call you Christ, Vsnu, Buddha, Jehovah,
Our Lord
You are, Govindam, Bismillah, Creator of All

You are the One
No matter what
You are the real love that I've got
You are my friend and when life's through
You are the light in death itself, oh yes are
You are the One
You are my love
You send the rain and bring the sun
You stand alone and speak the truth
You are the breath of life itself, oh yes you are
You are the breath of life itself, oh yes you are
You are the One.



* Lado B do Somewhere in England, "Writing on the wall" faz uso discreto de instrumentos indianos, é quase tão lindo e assustador como "Life Itself", e um exercício muito mais imaginativos do rock raga do que qualquer coisa de Harrison sempre gerida como um Beatle. Embora muitas pessoas possam ser relutantes ou incapazes de visão espiritual de George Harrison, sua sinceridade (pelo menos em determinados números) é indiscutível, e o som que ele cria é claramente a sua própria.


 *Side two's "Writing's on the Wall," which makes discreet use of Indian instruments, is very nearly as gorgeous and haunting as "Life Itself," and a far more imaginative exercise in raga-rock than anything Harrison ever managed as a Beatle. Though many people may be unwilling or unable to share George Harrison's spiritual vision, his sincerity (at least in certain numbers) is beyond dispute, and the sound he creates is distinctly his own.

 Documentário de Martin Scorsese sobre George Harrison sairá em 2011

O diretor Martin Scorsese terminou de filmar seu mais novo documentário, sobre a vida do ex-Beatle George Harrison, que se chamará “Living in the Material World: George Harrison”. Segundo o site da revista “Rolling Stone” norte-americana, Scorsese deu detalhes sobre o projeto durante o Festival de Cannes, onde ele e a viúva de George, Olivia Harrison, negociavam potenciais distribuidoras para o longa, que será lançado em 2011.

O título “Living in the Material World” foi tirado do disco de mesmo nome lançado por George Harrison em 1973. Scorsese e Olivia buscavam um nome que equilibrasse o lado espiritual e psíquico do ex-Beatle. “Eu cresci um católico romano e queria ser padre, então este assunto nunca saiu de mim. Quanto mais você entra no mundo material, maior é a procura por serenidade”, afirmou Scorsese durante o Festival de Cannes.


Ainda de acordo com a “Rolling Stone”, “Living in the Material World: George Harrison” trará material inédito de Harrison, vasculhado por Olivia, como fotos, fitas cassettes, notas, e entrevistas com Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono, Eric Clapton e Phil Spector.


Martin Scorsese já produziu outros documentários musicais de sucesso como “The Last Waltz”, sobre o último show da The Band; “No Direction Home”, de Bob Dylan; e o mais recente “Shine a Light”, do Rolling Stones.
