Influential Song
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" - by
The Beatles
My
Guitar Gently Weeps is one of those songs that I loved the first
time I heard it and has always stuck with me regardless of what
style or type of music I am listening to. Each time I listen
to it I hear something different; it spurs new ideas and it
has taught me how to digest songs from various angles. The Beatles
were the most innovative and impressionable song writers in
music; their timeless lyrics and melodies are a true testament
to impactful song writing. I can’t think of a song that
exemplifies their talents and ingenuity more than "While
My Guitar Gently Weeps".
