While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Like Lennon, both McCartney and Starr held the song in high regard. In the 2000 book "The Beatles Anthology", Starr paired "Something" with "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" as "Two of the finest love songs ever written", adding, "they're really on a par with what John and Paul or anyone else of that time wrote"; McCartney said it was "George's greatest track – with 'Here Comes the Sun' and 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps'". Among Harrison's other peers, Paul Simon described "Something" as a "masterpiece" and Elton John said: "'Something' is probably one of the best love songs ever, ever, "ever" written ... It's better than 'Yesterday,' much better ... It's like the song I've been chasing for the last thirty-five years."
