"Give Me Dearest (Give Me Peace on World)" is a song by English musician George Harrison, released equally the opening track of his 1973 album Living in the Material Earth. It was also issued as the album's lead unmarried, in May that year, and became Harrison'southward second US number 1, later "My Sweet Lord". In doing and then, the song pushed Paul McCartney and Wings' "My Dear" from the top of the Billboard Hot 100, marking the simply occasion that two former Beatles have held the top two chart positions in America. The single also reached the peak 10 in United kingdom, Canada, Australia and other countries around the world.

"Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Globe)" is 1 of its author's nearly popular songs, among fans and music critics, and features a serial of much-praised slide-guitar solos from Harrison. The recording signalled a deliberate divergence from his earlier post-Beatles work, in the scaling downwardly of the large sound synonymous with All Things Must Pass and his other co-productions with Phil Spector over 1970–71. Aside from Harrison, the musicians on the track are Nicky Hopkins, Jim Keltner, Klaus Voormann and Gary Wright. In his lyrics, Harrison sings of his desire to be free of karma and the constant bicycle of rebirth; he later described the song as "a prayer and personal argument between me, the Lord, and whoever likes information technology".[one]

Harrison performed "Give Me Honey" at every concert during his rare tours as a solo artist, and a live version was included on his 1992 anthology Live in Japan. The original studio recording appears on the compilation albums The All-time of George Harrison (1976) and Let It Roll: Songs past George Harrison (2009). At the Concert for George tribute to Harrison, in November 2002, Jeff Lynne performed "Give Me Dearest" with Andy Fairweather-Depression and Marc Isle of mann playing the twin slide-guitar parts. Marisa Monte, Dave Davies, Elliott Smith, Ron Sexsmith, Sting, James Taylor, Elton John, and Grace Vanderwaal are amidst the other artists who have covered the song.

Background and inspiration [edit]

I want to be God-witting. That'southward actually my simply ambition, and everything else in life is incidental.[2]

– George Harrison, speaking in early 1971[3] nearly his plans following the success of All Things Must Pass

As with most of the songs on his Living in the Material Earth anthology, George Harrison wrote "Give Me Dear (Give Me Peace on Earth)" over 1971–72.[4] During this period, he dedicated himself to assisting refugees of the People's republic of bangladesh Liberation War,[v] by staging ii all-star benefit concerts in New York and preparing a live album and concert film for release.[6] In addition, much of his time was spent occupied with the business and legal problems afflicting the humanitarian help projection.[7] Writer Andrew Grant Jackson writes that Harrison's frustration with this last issue resulted in a sombre quality pervading much of Material World, yet he "pushed his disillusionment aside for the lead single ['Requite Me Love']".[8]

The same flow coincided with the height of Harrison'due south devotion to Hindu spirituality.[9] [10] Every bit with his religious-themed 1970–71 hit, "My Sweetness Lord", and his subsequent singles "What Is Life" and "Bangla Desh", Harrison wrote "Give Me Love" very speedily.[11] [12] Author Alan Clayson describes it equally having "flowed from George with an ease as devoid of ante-starting time agonies as a Yoko Ono 'think slice'".[thirteen] In his autobiography, I, Me, Mine, Harrison recalls of the writing process:

Sometimes you lot open your mouth and you don't know what you are going to say, and whatever comes out is the starting point. If that happens and you are lucky, information technology can usually be turned into a song. This song is a prayer and personal statement between me, the Lord, and whoever likes it.[1]

Composition [edit]

"Give Me Honey (Give Me Peace on Globe)" continues the precedent that Harrison set on "My Sweet Lord", through its fusion of the Hindu bhajan (or devotional song) with Western gospel tradition.[xiv] [15] Author Simon Leng comments that the song repeats some other of its composer's hit formulas, by using a iii-syllable lyrical claw as its title, like "My Sugariness Lord", "What Is Life" and "Bangla Desh".[16]

The song's time signature is 4/4 throughout, and the musical key is F major. As on Harrison's recording, this requires the placing of a capo on the guitar's third fret, to transpose the chords from D up to the correct key.[17] The intro features strummed acoustic guitar, similar in style to the opening of Bob Dylan'south "Mr. Tambourine Man".[18] The vocal builds gradually from its understated introduction, with the rhythm section simply fully arriving after the outset span segment.[19] Harrison biographer Gary Tillery describes the musical mood as "bouncy yet soothing".[20]

In his lyrics, Harrison expresses his vision for life in the physical world.[21] Following the opening instrumental passage, the song begins with a chorus[22] in which he first pleads for a life devoid of the karmic burden of reincarnation (rebirth): "Give me honey, give me love, requite me peace on earth / Requite me light, requite me life, go on me gratis from birth."[23] [24] These lyrics deport a simple, universal message,[18] [25] 1 that, in the context of the fourth dimension, related every bit much to the communal "peace and love" idealism of the 1960s equally it did Harrison'south personal spiritual quest.[26] [nb 1]

Harrison likewise asks for divine help to "cope with this heavy load", while his stated effort to "affect and reach you lot with centre and soul" recalls the aforementioned plea for a direct relationship with his deity that he expresses in "My Sweet Lord".[30] These two lines, which complete the chorus,[31] imply a deficiency or unfulfilment on the singer's part.[32] Co-ordinate to writer Ian Inglis, they serve as "an acknowledgment of the trials and tribulations he was facing in a more than earthly setting" in the aftermath to the Concert for Bangladesh.[33] [nb 2]

During the two bridge sections, Harrison incorporates the sacred term "Om" within his extended phrase "Oh ... my Lord".[20] [35] Author Joshua Greene describes this as an example of a theme found in several songs on Material World, whereby Harrison "distilled" spiritual concepts into phrases "so elegant they resembled Vedic sutras: short codes that contain volumes of meaning".[36] The use of the word "Om" was a further comment from Harrison on the universality of faith,[37] after his switching in "My Sweet Lord" from "hallelujah" refrains to the Hare Krishna mantra.[twenty] Referring to the second half of the bridges in "Give Me Love",[31] Inglis views the drawn-out "Please …" as "highly symbolic", given the "unresolved disharmonize" that appears to be at the heart of the composition.[24] [nb iii]

Recording [edit]

Harrison'southward commitment to overseeing the release of the Concert for Bangladesh documentary flick prevented him from being able to commencement on the follow-upwardly to his All Things Must Pass triple album until midway through 1972.[39] [twoscore] Another delay was caused past producer Phil Spector'south unreliability, as Harrison waited for him to plough upward for the kickoff of the sessions.[4] Writer Bruce Spizer writes that "the eccentric producer's erratic attendance acquired George to realize the project would never get done if he kept waiting for Spector",[41] and by October that year, Harrison had decided to produce the album lone.[4]

["Give Me Dear"] perfectly encapsulates Harrison's guitar technique and production: economical in notes, it demonstrates virtuosity instead in its augmentation of the melody, rendered in the layering of two or more fluid slide guitar parts painstakingly arranged and impeccably recorded.[42]

– Michael Frontani, writing in The Cambridge Companion to the Beatles

As for the majority of Living in the Cloth World, Harrison recorded the basic track for "Give Me Love" in the fall of 1972[43] with the assist of quondam Beatles engineer Phil McDonald.[41] The recording location was either FPSHOT, Harrison's new abode studio at Friar Park in Henley-on-Thames,[44] or Apple Studio in London.[45] In a departure from Harrison's co-productions with Spector, where a large line-up of musicians had been standard,[42] "Give Me Honey" featured a pared-down arrangement and more subtle instrumentation.[45] [46] Some other contrast was Harrison's adoption of a production style that partly recalls George Martin'southward work with the Beatles.[47] [48] On "Give Me Love", Inglis notes the same "supple and articulate [acoustic] guitar-playing that distinguished 'Here Comes the Lord's day'" in 1969,[24] while the less chiliad production, relative to All Things Must Pass, immune greater expression for Harrison as a slide guitarist.[49] [fifty]

Harrison carried out overdubs on the backing runway, including twin slide-guitar parts, during the first two months of 1973.[51] [nb iv] Aside from Harrison'south guitar work, the most prominent instrument on the recording is Nicky Hopkins' pianoforte,[xviii] double-tracked and played in his usual melodic style.[53] The rhythm section consisted of bassist Klaus Voormann and drummer Jim Keltner.[45] The organ player on the song was American musician Gary Wright,[41] whose 1971 album Footprint was 1 of many musical projects in which Harrison was involved between All Things Must Pass and Material World.[54] [nb v] Peter Lavezzoli, writer of The Dawn of Indian Music in the West, comments on how quickly Harrison's "unique approach" to slide-guitar playing had matured since 1970, to comprise sitar, veena and other Hindustani musical stylings, and rates the mid-song solo on "Requite Me Honey" as "1 of his near intricate and melodic".[58]

Release [edit]

"Requite Me Love (Give Me Peace on Globe)" was Harrison's commencement single in shut to two years, after "Bangla Desh" in July 1971.[59] [60] As with Living in the Material World, however, its release was delayed to allow for other items on Apple tree Records' release schedule during the first half of 1973:[61] the Beatles' compilations 1962–1966 and 1967–1970, and Paul McCartney and Wings' second album, Red Rose Speedway.[62] In the years since All Things Must Pass, according to author Robert Rodriguez, the public bickering between John Lennon and McCartney and their "subpar" music had washed much to diminish the "cachet of beingness an ex-Beatle".[63] In his 1977 book The Beatles Forever, Nicholas Schaffner wrote that, because of the altruism inherent in the Bangladesh project compared to the twin "fiascos" of McCartney's Wild Life album and the Lennon–Ono collaboration Some Fourth dimension in New York City, "[a] receptive audience was guaranteed" for Harrison's new songs.[28]

Backed by "Miss O'Dell", "Give Me Dear" was issued on 7 May 1973 in America (as Apple tree R 5988)[64] and 25 May in U.k. (Apple tree 1862).[65] Three weeks later, the vocal appeared equally the opening track on Living in the Material World.[66] [67] As with all the songs on the album bar the 1971-copyright "Sue Me, Sue You Blues" and "Try Some, Buy Some",[68] Harrison assigned his publishing royalties for "Requite Me Dear" to his newly launched Fabric World Charitable Foundation.[47]

Apple'due south Us benefactor, Capitol Records, mastered the single to run at a faster speed than the album track,[61] in society to make the song audio brighter on the radio.[69] [nb six] Unusually for an Apple release by a former Beatle, the single was packaged in a evidently sleeve in the principal markets of United kingdom of great britain and northern ireland and the United states of america.[65] A variety of picture sleeves were available in European countries, including a pattern incorporating Harrison's signature and a ruby Om symbol,[70] both of which were aspects of Tom Wilkes's artwork for the Fabric World album.[71]

Usa chart feat [edit]

Trade advertizing for the single, May 1973

The single topped the Billboard Hot 100 at the end of June, for one week,[72] and peaked at number 8 on the UK Singles Nautical chart.[73] [74] Repeating the feat of January 1971, when "My Sweet Lord" and All Things Must Pass sat atop the Billboard charts simultaneously, "Give Me Dear" hitting number 1 part-way through Material Earth 'south v-week stay at the top of the albums listings.[75] [nb vii]

"Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)" replaced Wings' "My Honey" at number ane on the Hot 100 singles nautical chart,[73] and in plough was replaced by "Will It Go Circular in Circles",[77] by Harrison'due south former Apple Records protégé Baton Preston.[78] For the week catastrophe 30 June that year, the Harrison, McCartney and Preston songs were ranked numbers 1, 2 and 3, respectively, on the Billboard Hot 100,[79] marker the outset time since 25 April 1964 that the Beatles occupied the height two positions on that chart.[80] Schaffner described this period as "reminiscent of the golden age of Beatlemania", due to the amount of Beatles-related product dominating the charts in America.[81] [nb 8] Every bit of October 2013, the week of 30 June 1973 remained the only time that 2 sometime members of the Beatles held the kickoff and 2nd positions on a US singles nautical chart.[84]

Reissue [edit]

"Give Me Love" subsequently appeared on the 1976 compilation The Best of George Harrison,[85] as ane of simply six selections from the creative person'south solo career.[86] The song was besides included on 2009'southward Let It Gyre: Songs by George Harrison.[87]

In Martin Scorsese's 2011 documentary George Harrison: Living in the Material World, released x years after Harrison'due south death,[88] the song plays over footage of the Friar Park grounds and of Harrison making music in the house with Keltner and Voormann.[89] During the segment, Voormann discusses Harrison'due south practice of preparing the studio with incense to create a suitable environment, calculation: "He actually fabricated it into a real tranquil, squeamish surrounding – everybody felt just nifty."[ninety]

Reception [edit]

Contemporary reviews [edit]

"Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on World)" became 1 of Harrison's most popular songs,[91] both from his years with the Beatles and from his subsequent solo career.[92] [93] On release, McCartney described it as "very nice", adding: "The guitar solo is ace and I like the time changes."[94] Billboard magazine's reviewer wrote: "Harrison's vocalization and sweetness, state tinged guitar piece of work within a rippling but controlled rhythm base of operations, lends itself to this plea for homo understanding. His sincere audio engulfs the listener and brings [them] into the story."[95] In Rolling Stone, Stephen Holden lauded the vocal for its "strong, short-phrased tune whose lyrics are sheer exhortation", and said that the single was "as every bit skillful equally 'My Sugariness Lord'".[96]

In United kingdom, where the national economy was heading into recession after the boom years of the 1960s,[97] [98] lines such as "help me cope with this heavy load", according to Alan Clayson, "touched a raw nerve or 2".[99] [nb 9] In the NME, Tony Tyler derided Harrison for "lay[ing] the entire Krishna-the-Caprine animal trip on u.s.a.",[101] [102] while Michael Watts of Melody Maker suggested that "Living in the Cloth World" might have been a better option for the album'southward pb single.[103] Writing in their 1975 volume The Beatles: An Illustrated Record, Tyler and Roy Carr said that "Give Me Beloved" bore "more than a distant resemblance" to Dylan's "I Want You lot", but praised the track for its "excellent and highly idiosyncratic slide-guitar playing".[104]

Retrospective reviews and legacy [edit]

Reviewing the song for AllMusic, Lindsay Planer highlights Harrison's guitar contribution to this "serene rocker" and besides acknowledges Hopkins' "warm and soulful keyboard runs and fills".[18] Zeth Lundy of PopMatters describes "Give Me Beloved" as "effervescent" and "a #i single that remains one of Harrison'due south most iconic and well-loved".[92] In his liner notes to the Let It Roll compilation, music historian Warren Zanes views "Give Me Love" as "perhaps the best example" of how Harrison's "post-Beatles songwriting blurs the line between music and prayer without ever sacrificing the pure melodic force for which he was known".[105] [nb x]

Mojo correspondent John Harris cites "Give Me Love" as evidence of Material World 's continuing every bit "something of a Hindu concept album … a pleasing fusion of Eastern faith, gospel, and the ghost of 'For You Blue'".[107] Hugh Fielder of Classic Rock admires Harrison's "painstaking craftsmanship" and "sublime playing" on this and other Textile World tracks and describes it as "ane of Harrison's finest songs".[108] Writing for Uncut, David Cavanagh considers the anthology to be a "utopian follow-up" to All Things Must Pass, on which "Give Me Love" "encapsulates the deal: simple message of promise, with gorgeous slide guitar … and fantastic rhythm section".[50]

Amidst Harrison and Beatles biographers, Robert Rodriguez recognises Harrison'south achievement in "cloak[ing] philosophical concerns in a thoroughly commercial package", which included his "impossibly compelling slide piece of work".[110] Simon Leng finds more superlatives for the song's guitar lines, describing them every bit "almost likewise euphonious to be true".[45] Leng continues: "Living in the Material World could hardly have reveled in a stronger opening song ... A gorgeous ballad, awash with marvelously expressive guitar statements, 'Give Me Love' retains the emotional power of All Things Must Pass in a compelling 3 minutes."[45]

Writing in All the same the Greatest: The Essential Solo Beatles Songs, Andrew Grant Jackson considers that with "Give Me Love", Harrison "captured the essence of what he had set out to do with the [People's republic of bangladesh] concerts – and what the Beatles had tried to exercise in their more idealistic moments". Describing it as Harrison's "finest plea to God", with a vocal that "perfectly suits the yearning" implicit in the lyrics, Jackson adds: "'Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)' stands alongside 'All You Demand Is Honey,' 'Let It Exist,' and 'Imagine' as the purest expression of the Aquarian Age dream."[19] In his Harrison obituary for The Guardian in December 2001,[111] one-time Tune Maker critic Chris Welch ended with a reference to the runway, saying that the ex-Beatle's "feelings and needs were best expressed in ane of his simplest songs – 'Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On World)'".[112]

In the Concert for George documentary pic (2003), Eric Clapton names "Requite Me Love" equally i of his favourite Harrison compositions, along with "Isn't It a Pity".[113] AOL Radio listeners voted the rail fifth in a 2010 poll to find Harrison's all-time post-Beatles songs,[114] while Michael Gallucci of Ultimate Classic Rock placed it 4th on a like list that he compiled.[115] Guitar World editor Damian Fanelli includes the track among his selection of Harrison's 10 best post-Beatles "Guitar Moments", praising the mid-song solo as "only one of the nigh intricate and melodic things the one-time Beatle ever played on slide".[116] David Fricke includes "Give Me Love" in his listing of "25 essential Harrison performances" for Rolling Stone magazine, and describes it as "a soft, intimate hymn, a modest-combo reaction to the Wagnerian spectacle of All Things Must Pass".[117]

Performance [edit]

Harrison performed "Give Me Beloved (Requite Me Peace on Earth)" throughout both his 1974 North American bout with Ravi Shankar and his 1991 Japanese tour with Eric Clapton, and during his 1992 benefit bear witness for the Natural Law Party.[118] The latter took place at London'due south Royal Albert Hall on 6 April that year[119] and was Harrison's simply full concert as a solo artist in Great britain.[120]

At his press conference in Los Angeles earlier the 1974 tour, Harrison said he would be playing "Give Me Honey" with a "slightly different" arrangement, calculation that, every bit with "My Sweet Lord", "Information technology should exist much more than loose."[121] The song usually appeared midway through the shows and featured Billy Preston's synthesizer and a flute solo from Tom Scott instead of the familiar slide-guitar breaks.[122] Although widely bootlegged,[123] no version of the song from this tour has been released officially.[124]

Live in Japan version [edit]

The Japanese bout in December 1991 was Harrison'south simply other tour equally a solo artist.[125] His 1992 anthology Live in Japan contains a version of "Give Me Love" from this tour,[126] recorded at Tokyo Dome on 15 Dec 1991.[127] Harrison once again delegated the solos to a fellow musician: in this case Andy Fairweather-Depression reproduced the slide-guitar parts from the original studio recording.[128] [129] Ian Inglis notes the "impressive interplay", peculiarly towards the end of the song, between Harrison and his backup singers,[130] Tessa Niles and Katie Kissoon.[131]

This live version of "Give Me Love", along with the accompanying concert footage, was subsequently included in the Living in the Material World reissue in September 2006, as part of a deluxe CD/DVD parcel.[48] [132] The performance likewise appears on the DVD included in the eight-disc Apple tree Years 1968–75 box set,[133] released in September 2014.[134]

Cover versions [edit]

Lindsay Planer writes that ii covers of the song "worth noting" are a version by Bob Koenig, issued on his Prose & Icons album in 1996, and one past Brazilian singer Marisa Monte from the same year.[18] Monte's version appeared on her album Barulhinho Bom,[135] later released in English language-speaking countries as A Great Dissonance.[136] In 1998, "Requite Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth)" was one of five Harrison songs that composers Steve Wood and Daniel May adapted for their soundtrack to the documentary film Everest; part of the piece "The Journey Begins" incorporates "Requite Me Love".[137] [nb 11]

Artists other than Harrison who take performed the song alive include Elliott Smith[139] and, in April 2002, Sting, James Taylor and Elton John.[140] These three musicians played "Requite Me Love" as part of a tribute to Harrison during the Stone for the Rainforest benefit concert at Carnegie Hall in New York Metropolis.[140] In what Planer describes as a "stirring reading",[xviii] Jeff Lynne performed the song at the Concert for George on 29 Nov 2002, held at the Regal Albert Hall exactly a twelvemonth after Harrison's death.[141] Lynne was supported by a band comprising Harrison'south friends and musical assembly, including Clapton, Fairweather-Low, Marc Mann, Keltner, Dhani Harrison, Niles and Kissoon.[142]

Dave Davies of the Kinks contributed a version of "Requite Me Love" to the multi-artist compilation Songs from the Fabric Globe: A Tribute to George Harrison in 2003.[143] In a argument released in advance of the compilation,[144] Davies explained that he was normally reluctant to perform other artists' songs yet had made "an exception" with "Give Me Love", in guild to honour Harrison "equally a great musical talent but primarily every bit an avant-garde soul who was unafraid to share his spiritual vision and journey with united states".[145] Davies afterwards issued the recording on his 2006 album Kinked.[146]

In 2010, Broadway actress Sherie Rene Scott featured "Give Me Love" in her autobiographical musical Everyday Rapture equally the show's final number.[147] Canadian vocalizer Ron Sexsmith has included the song in his live performances; a version by him appeared on Harrison Covered,[148] a tribute CD accompanying the November 2011 issue of Mojo mag.[149] In Jan 2017, the Avett Brothers performed "Give Me Honey (Give Me Peace on World)" live on The Belatedly Prove with Stephen Colbert.[150]

Chart performance [edit]

  1. ^ Harrison biographer Elliot Huntley views the words to "Give Me Beloved" as a "lyrically dummed-down version" of the vocaliser's Hindu-aligned spiritual message.[27] The theme regarding deliverance from rebirth in the physical world features more overtly in other tracks on Living in the Cloth World,[28] particularly "The Lord Loves the One (That Loves the Lord)" and "Living in the Material World".[29]
  2. ^ Leng has cited Harrison's failing union to Pattie Boyd in 1972, as well as the possibility of Harrison having experienced a spiritual "crisis" in reaction to both the acclaim he had received every bit a solo artist since the Beatles' break-up, and the issues that had befallen his Bangladesh relief effort.[34]
  3. ^ As with "Om", the word "Please" is rendered in capital letters on the printed lyrics.[31] [38]
  4. ^ According to Beatles Diary compiler Keith Badman, an alternative version of "Requite Me Love" exists, which Harrison gave to BBC Radio 1 DJ Alan Freeman for promotional purposes.[52]
  5. ^ Harrison as well contributed to Hopkins' solo anthology The Tin Man Was a Dreamer,[55] recording for which took identify at Apple Studio in between sessions for Living in the Material World.[56] [57]
  6. ^ Although the A-side'southward running time read 3:32 on the unmarried, "Requite Me Love" really ran to near 3:25.[65]
  7. ^ "Give Me Love" also topped the US charts compiled by Cash Box and Tape World.[69] In the UK, Melody Maker 'southward chart recorded the single at number seven.[76]
  8. ^ Cheers to Preston'due south appearances in the Beatles' 1970 documentary Let It Be and the Concert for Bangladesh film, he would long remain associated with the ring.[82] This was particularly so in mid 1973 when printing reports tied him to a possible Beatles reunion, following the Los Angeles sessions for Ringo Starr's Ringo album.[83]
  9. ^ Harrison'due south idealism was generally welcomed in the U.s.a. during this fourth dimension.[84] According to one-time Record Collector editor Peter Doggett, however, Lennon and McCartney's respective activities over 1971–72, particularly their public support for the republican cause in Northern Republic of ireland, ensured that many music critics in the Uk responded with hostility towards the one-time Beatles.[100]
  10. ^ Writing in the 2004 Rolling Rock Album Guide, Mac Randall described the tune as one of "Harrison's prettiest".[106]
  11. ^ Harrison had agreed to the adaptations by Forest and May on the agreement that no advance publicity would mention his connection.[138]
