George Harrison's genius? He wrote "Wah Wah," which makes no effing SENSE, but ROCKS like a MOTHER.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Paul McCartney tried something similar on the critically-slammed Wings "Wild Life" album with the song "Mumbo." Sorry, Sir Paul. I've hear Wah Wah and you, sir, have no Wah Wah.

Wah-wah
You've given me a wah-wah
And I'm thinking of you
And all the things that we used to do
Wah-wah, wah-wah

Wah-wah
You made me such a big star
Being there at the right time
Cheaper than a dime
Wah-wah, you've given me your wah-wah, wah-wah

Oh, you don't see me crying
Oh, you don't hear me sighing

Wah-wah
I don't need no wah-wah
And I know how sweet life can be
If I keep myself free from the wah-wah
I don't need no wah-wah

Oh, you don't see me crying
Hey baby, you don't hear me sighing
Oh, no no-no no

Wah-wah
Now I don't need no wah-wahs
And I know how sweet life can be
If I keep myself free - of wah-wah
I don't need no wah-wah

Wah-wah (repeat and fade)

1. LOVE that song!

Well. Caveat: In my eyes, George could do no wrong whatsoever. :evilgrin:

As for "Wah-Wah", I think I recall GH explaining that "wah wah" meant all the sycophantic noise the suckups around him used to spout all the time.

3. That sounds right...

...and the "All Things Must Pass" album was such a redemption for him. Other than Lennon's "Plastic Ono Band," it's easily one of the strongest Beatles solo albums, period. Lennon & McCartney may have limited his contributions to the Beatles albums, but it was clear to see that it wasn't because of his lack of quality material.
