They were 8 years apart, so they probably didn't become close until they were older.

George being asked about his health issues by the press: "I mean, we're all going to die one day, but I'm not going to die for you quite yet." The way he said it was so funny! What a wonderfully witty, beautiful man. You are so so missed. 💕

They had their ups and downs, but they did see each other in the 70s and 80s too. "I love Paul. He's my mate. And it doesn't matter what they say in the papers." - George, 1988 (Aspel & Co. interview)

Reminds me of my relationship with my old best friend/brother who passed away.

It's amazing that - after all these years - and of course, 40-plus years since John was assassinated and George's much-too-soon passing 20-plus years ago - that not only their music mattered, but also their relationships with one another did, and do, to us. The Beatles were (still are) so far beyond even the other mythical groups, that they just matter more - in every way. To me, I like reading about Mick, Keith and company, and Daltry, Townshend, Moon, Ox, and Page, Plant, etc....but it just doesn't matter to me like John, Paul, George and Ringo. So magical !! (yes, I repeated "matter" a couple times to stress this point).

There may have been some personalities contradictions between the two at the root of it causing problems. But, I think Paul had the best interest of everyone in mind a lot and so did George.

Brotherly love can be complicated but the love is always there in the end. Paul and George are my favorite Beatles, I’d be devastated if George never made amends with Paul and of course Paul would have been as well.

Looking at it from an astrological perspective (for anyone interested) it's easy to see why there was some friction between them. George was a Pisces and Paul a Gemini which are squared or 90 degrees to each other on the astrological wheel. You can think of it like numbers on a clock. If Paul was say at 3 o'clock George would be at 12. Drawing a line across each's horizon or direction of focus... Paul's looking at 9 o'clock and George at 6 on the other side of the wheel. This creates some friction where their focus crosses in the middle being 90 degrees off. Making it a little difficult to see eye to eye. Being a Pisces myself and observing over the years I really think there's something to that theory. While I greatly admire the quick sharp intellect of Gemini's there often seems to be a kind of misunderstandings cropping up. As though the two signs are functioning on different operating systems. (PC vs Mac?) Which leads to another astrological way to look at it... Through the elemental lens. Picses is a "Water" sign while Gemini is "Air". Water signs tend to operate more on an emotional, feeling level. Where Air signs tend to operate on a more intellectual, logical level, and tend to be the more articulate, brilliant communicators. So there's that too. Speaking of which... A few Air signs come to mind as the most brilliant song writers. How about Lennon and McCartney for starters (John, Libra, Air sign). A couple more would be Bob Dylan and Bob Marley! Maybe there's something to it??

Paul was always very competitive which was his strength but it cut both ways . . . Positively and negatively. I like their nickname The Threetles. Laughed out loud when I heard that.

They reunited at the Friar Park George Home.

The Beatles loved the adoration of their fans and recognized that each had a crazed following. Emotional conflict in any group is inevitable, but these guys let their fan base be their motivation, and not their disagreements. There was a cohesion because as John put it we are more famous than Jesus and so they loved it. When they split up their pockets were full and they were recognized all over the world. Think about this, because this happened in the middle of the last century and we are still talking about them. Their music is still at the top of my list so conflict or not I give each of them credit for creating music that will stand the test of time. Quite likely for centuries.

It's interesting that no one ever brings up why Paul and George never considered getting together to write together and only focus on Paul and John's writing partnership, especially as George made important contributions such as the intro to "And I love her" to Paul's pieces. Paul has never been shy about attributing the importance of George's contribution to that piece.

George forever!

I agree with your opinion, Kunisawa-san. I think it is very strange. The majority of the opinions were originally based on the premise that expressways should be free (although I think this is unreasonable in the first place), and that it is wrong to charge tolls for them forever. Now, to oppose it when it might actually be made free (with some exceptions) is to say, "Well, what do you want?" I think that's what it comes down to. Traffic congestion, debt, and maintenance should be discussed separately from the free service. This is a bit off topic, but I'd like to write about something I've always thought about. I sometimes drive in the Tohoku region on business, and there is really very little traffic. There are full of deficit sure routes and some sections are being built further. However, I always use the expressway because it is very convenient. So, I always think that it would be much better to reduce the price of the fee drastically and let people use it and become a debt without making it a debt with a small amount of traffic if it becomes the same debt. If the price is 400 yen per section, I think it is more economical to lower the price to 100 yen and have people use it a lot and become indebted. I don't think that the traffic volume will increase fourfold simply because the price is reduced to 1/4, but I think that expressways are only valuable if people use them, what do you think? Lastly, free expressway, great. Traffic jams are fine. Let's put up with it. After all, it is free!

I was a teenager at the beginning of the 1960's and grew up listening to all these different 'Mersey sound' groups and wonder how much of what is written about them all is actually factual or just what their publicity people want us all to believe. I am very much reminded of what Mickey Dolenz of the Monkeys pop group always said, "We weren't the first manufactured pop group the Beatles were." I personally tend to be open minded

@Barry Rudge, hi there, I was 10 yrs old and trying to get off my mommy's apron strings when the Beatles landed here in 1964. A year and a half later, I was so cool, lol, that my daddy took me and best gf to 1st concert, Beatles in Chicago, at White Sox Park ( Comisky Park) in 1965, August 20. I had turned 11 just 3 wks prior. I am writing this at 67 y.o. now just to prove a point. The Beatles were NOT manufactured. Check out all thise great performances in Germany, very early 60's, then at The Cavern Club in Liverpool. Mickey Dolenz is being ridiculous and pompous (why?) by calling the Beatles 'manufactured'. They already had that talent, moxie and magic all their own, long before Brian Epstein appeared. I been following all this Beatle stuff for 57 yrs; long before the internet, even before color tv. No, no and no...no manufacturing there...just raw talent and fabulous people, the four of them and their personal and musical comraderie and genius. Oh, I followed the Monkees too, even went to that concert at 11 yrs old. Mickey was my fave, but what an idiot comment that was, but I do recall it. So, long live the Beatles...nothing was or will ever be like that again. Those memories are precious. I hope we all understand that there was no manufacturing there. Peace and love to all.

@@roxannetoth5026 I was 7 when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan, and got a boost into Beatlemania thanks to having a teenage sister. Still a fan now (obviously, or I wouldn't be watching this video and commenting!) and I get what you mean about the Beatles not being manufactured - certainly not in the way the Monkees were. I don't know the reference for that Micky Dolenz quote; what the context was or if it was even actually said... however I can also kind of see that, too. In the sense that Brian Epstein took the Beatles out of leather and put them into suits; gave them directions about how to change their behaviour on stage (no smoking, no eating, and no toilet seats around the neck, Lennon!) Anything threatening about them was removed and they were marketed as mop tops. I think there's plenty of evidence that some of the changes rankled, but they did what they had to do to grab onto that brass ring and take their shot at fame. Clearly their talent was far greater than any mere manager (or producer) could control. But the combination of their talent with the "steering" provided by Brian Epstein, George Martin and others, plus the chemical reaction produced by the giant wave of baby boomer infatuation and true love for them.... resulted in a magic phenomenon that you and I and our generation were incredibly lucky to live through. Peace and love to you as well!

The Monkees were "manufactured" for the tv show, they were RECRUITED, each member had to do an audition and be selected. The Beatles, GTFO.

The Monkeys were manufactured but the Beatles weren't. They got together naturally because of talent and the love of music.

Only Paul and George, actually knew this the rest is hear say 🤔

You could see in the 1994 reunion on the Anthology that Paul was still tending to dominate. I can see how at the end of the Beatles this would create issues.

I think it is also on the other side, George was still sulky about Paul, so Paul had to push to try to break through that sulkiness.

George and Ringo got less money because McCartney/Lennon had the song credits,l can see how George had a beef about that

Trogly's in the HOUSE!!!

George definitely should have been more acknowledged and deserved it

I think the problem was Paul always saw George as being junior to him because Paul was older, but this is silly, as it is only 8 months difference, which may be significant when very young, but by the time one has grown up eight months make no real difference, unless one is Paul and using it to try to be superior.

Johnny Hartley, He and John always made it sound as if they were 20+ years older than George lol.

Your best friend is usually the person who can get under your skin the most

Without Paul the beatles would've broken up way earlier. I really do hate how people always say that George and Paul hated each other, sure they had arguments but they were best friends, brothers. They loved each other really, and I don't think there is a single friendship in the world that hasn't at least had one argument.

No, William and George didn't love each other. George preferred the real Paul McCartney.

@@olskzeri1476 The current Paul is the real Paul, Billy Shears isn't real he is a made up character created by Ringo.

One of them said [maybe Ringo] 'we lived in each other's pockets for 8 years'. Explains everything.

George and Paul were friends since they were 13 &14, rode the bus to school together.
