Elton John Chose The Beatles' Most Beautiful Love Song
Throughout his career, Elton John never hid his admiration for the Beatles. As one of popular music's greatest composers, his take on the Liverpool band's catalog arouses huge interest among fans and experts alike.
When asked about the Beatles' best romantic song, Elton pointed out a choice that surprised some people: "Something", composed by George Harrison.
Released in 1969 on the album "Abbey Road", the song is often considered one of the most beautiful declarations of love ever recorded by the group.
According to Elton, the composition brings together melody, emotion and elegance in an almost perfect way. The smooth performance, combined with Harrison's refined writing, turned the track into an instant classic.

Over the years, "Something" has been recorded by countless artists and has come to be considered one of the greatest love songs in the history of popular music.
For Elton John, few songs can convey feelings in such a sincere and sophisticated way as this masterpiece by George Harrison.
