First released: 1981
The Beatles tribute single for John that wasn’t supposed to be. In other words, George wrote and recorded this song with different lyrics with Ringo playing on drums. After the tragedy of 12/8/80, George recorded the vocal with new lyrics and then Paul and Linda added backing “oohs” and “aahs” to round it out. Not a bad tune, but not that great either. It sold well, due to it being a tribute and the fact that all three were on it. It was a hit single and included on the final version of "Somewhere in England" and later on "Best of Dark Horse 1976-1989". Also performed on George Harrison’s "Live in Japan" album and tour in 1991.
