Ending of While My Guitar Gently Weeps- George or Paul? | Page 2 | Fab forum

And I Love Her - George stole it with the riff so lets not go down the route of Paul was the greatest ever and the others were behind his awesomeness and holy glow. Sorry but this Paul is great and did everything good in the Beatles gets right up my nose, heck it pisses me off.

John's kickass piano intro for Ob-La-Di took what was a neverending borefest trudge for the other 3 and made it what it was. But more than likely Paul whispered it to John in the toilets.

And just becuase you hear Paul Paulbass doesnt mean you are 100% correct and should be so condescending. Yours is opinion, same as anyone else who posts. But we shouldnt dare to suggest its anyone but Paul – how could it be anyone else?

It was sarcasm but your posts imply it especially in these topics when anyone says it wasnt Paul, take a look at the AGITL ahhh topic or the one where it ended up quoting radio playlists from the last 40 years, something about Michelle or the like. They all go the same way.

I was obviously aware of the sarcasm, but I think it was uncalled for.

And if you dare and re-read just page 1 of the monster thread, you'll see that I never, EVER intended it to go that way. A certain other poster came up with ridiculous claims, and I rebuffed them, simple as that.

How do you know youre right? Did you read Paul or anyone else confirm it was him? No you listened to it and came to the conclusion it is Paul. Others listened to it and heard George. There is so far no definitive answer so have a bit of courtesy in how you reply to peoples opinions, dont say "No problem. While you're free to do so, it's still Paul." especially in these type of threads.

I'm aware of the fact it sounds condescending, but I can't help it when I'm 110 % sure I'm right.

There are other songs where I'm uncertain and even have been wrong about in the past (I believed Come together has Paul in the harmonies, but when I read it was only John I could totally accept it).

I used to think they hired a guest singer for Lady Madonna, because that voice didn't sound like any of them. That was when I was about 14, in 1988.

I've heard WMGGW for the first time in 1992, and from this first time on I always thought it was Paul, and the more I knew about them the more sure I was.

I have an exceptionally well analytic hearing and I obsessively trained myself on their voices. The Sgt Peppers booklet was a great help, since for the first time then I could read who was the singer and match that information with the voices. And later I discovered all of Paul's different voices, and John's different styles of singing.

Some backing vocals are still tough to analyse, but I think I got most of them nailed down.

When I'm uncertain I will always admit it, and believe me, this is NOT, in ANY way about Paul being "the best".

I love all four of them. But I get pissed when some Lennonistas or George-followers DENY Paul his accomplishments.

And why should I freaking care if George would sing that part? Good for him, good for the song!

But he's not. It's Paul.

End of story.

 

When is a fact not a fact? When it's an opinion. 200% sure of that. I've always thought it was Georgie, but only 90-95% sure of that. When even Beatles get facts wrong about their career, who am I to say I'm right and you're wrong? Just an opinion.

Its just a sad state of affairs that if ever a topic comes up about who did what and Paul is involved it becomes a matter of 'its Paul and everyone else is dead wrong for daring to think never mind write anything else and must be spoken down to for thinking anything else'. I know its going to happen as soon as the first post is made and so a sense of dread and heaviness comes.

I know that folk are out there who think the same for John, George and Ringo and they irritate me as much as those who do it for Paul. Heck i cant bear Yoko and her marketing of John as a saint and flogging Imagine at every opportunity on every possible product/piece of tat.

And apologies to all for my posts above, i want this place to be peaceful and respectful as much as anyone, its one of the great things about the site.

Thank you mja6758 for the kind words. I really dont have a problem with Paulbass the individual, just the reaction when its a ? or Paul thread and someone says its not Paul.
