MLMM Friday Faithfuls — Here Comes the Sun

For this week’s Mindlovemysery’s Menagerie Friday Faithfuls challenge, Jim Adams asks us to write anything about magnetic fields on the Sun, or if you are worried about an upcoming solar apocalypse, or write about whatever else that you think might fit.

So, I know nothing about the magnetic fields on the Sun, other than what Jim wrote about them in his post. I’m not worried a solar apocalypse, either. And, with chest congestion, sinuses full of snot, a hacking cough, a muddled head, and a low-grade fever, I decided to keep my response simple by presenting one of my favorite tracks from my personal favorite Beatles album, Abbey Road. The song is “Here Comes the Sun.”

“Here Comes the Sun” was written by George Harrison. He composed the song in early 1969 at his friend Eric Clapton’s country house. Harrison skipped a meeting at the Beatles’ Apple Corps organization to write the song. The lyrics of the song express his joy on the arrival of spring and the break he got from the band’s business affairs.

    Nobody ever wrote a song about the solar flares, radiation blasts, Coronal Mass Ejections of highly charged plasma or the hazards of solar wind, but we have Harrison to thank for this perfect song.  Thanks for joining in again, Fandango.

    The quality of this shows how stifled he must’ve been. No wonder they went their own ways so soon afterwards.

        I like them both, but George in particular was held back by being in the band. He wrote so much good music afterwards.
