    Billy Preston -Concert For George .. - Isn't It A Pity (Royal Albert Hall in London on 29 November 2002)
    Concert For George [1080p]The Concert for George was held at the Royal Albert Hall in London on 29 November 2002 as a memorial to George Harrison on the first anniversary of his death. The event was organized by Harrison's widow, Olivia, and son, Dhani, and arranged under the musical direction of Eric Clapton and Jeff Lynne. The profits from the event went to the Material World Charitable Foundation, an organization set up by Harrison."Isn't It A Pity" is a song by George Harrison from his 1970 solo album All Things Must Pass. It appears in two variations there: one the well-known, seven-minute version; the other a reprise, as the original album's penultimate track (excluding the Apple Jam bonus disc), known as "Isn't It A Pity (Version Two)". The song was written in 1966, but despite the popularity and success it would subsequently achieve, both for Harrison and for artists who have covered it, "Isn't It A Pity" was rejected for inclusion on releases by the Beatles. A big anthemic ballad and one of George Harrison's most celebrated songs, it has been described as the emotional and musical centrepiece of All Things Must Pass and "a poignant reflection on The Beatles' coarse ending". Despite its relative antiquity by 1970, the song's lyrics lent themselves perfectly to the themes of spiritual salvation and friendship that define All Things Must Pass, being consistent with the karmic subject matter of much of the album. Harrison later said of the track: "'Isn't It A Pity' is about whenever a relationship hits a down point... It was a chance to realise that if I felt somebody had let me down, then there's a good chance I was letting someone else down". The verse-one lines "How we take each other's love without thinking any more / Forgetting to give back..." have been acknowledged as a precursor to Paul McCartney's parting couplet -- "And in the end, the love you take / Is equal to the love you make" -- in the Beatles' Abbey Road song "The End".Lyrics:Isn't it a pityIsn't it a shameHow we break each other's heartsAnd cause each other painHow we take each other's loveWithout thinking anymoreForgetting to give backIsn't it a pitySome things take so longBut how do I explainWhen not too many peopleCan see we're all the sameAnd because of all their tearsTheir eyes can't hope to seeThe beauty that surrounds themIsn't it a pityIsn't it a pityIsn't is a shameHow we break each other's heartsAnd cause each other painAnd because of all their tearsTheir eyes can't hope to seeThe beauty that surrounds themIsn't it a pity
