'Something' (1969) is a tender love ballad written by George Harrison, featured on the Beatles' *Abbey Road* album. Harrison reportedly penned it about his wife Pattie Boyd. Its beautiful melody and wistful lyrics ('Something in the way she moves...') made it a worldwide hit. Frank Sinatra praised it as 'the best love song of the past 50 years,' highlighting its emotional resonance. The song earned Harrison equal billing as composer to Lennon/McCartney. As a testament to its charm, 'Something' has been covered by hundreds of artists (Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, James Brown, among many others), yet the Beatles’ version remains iconic. Its blend of sweet strings and Harrison’s heartfelt voice make 'Something' a classic romantic anthem.
