“‘George was mixing something down in his studio and McCartney came in,’ says Geoff Wonfor. 'He said, “Ah that sounds nice, George. When the fuck did you learn to do all this?” George looked up and said, “Remember me? I was second on the right”.’ It was not a one way street. With Lennon no longer around, Harrison felt obliged to take on the role of agent provocateur; he was heard to utter heretical views about the quality of the raw material they were working with, and hoped that 'someone does this with all my crap demos when I’m dead.’ McCartney, pulling rank on baby Beatle, 'personally thought that a little presumptuous.’”
— Graeme Thomson, George Harrison: Behind the Locked Door

"The costumes [in Austin Powers] are very much inspired by the British music scene. A lot of Austin came from George Harrison, combined with a little Mick Jagger." - Deena Appel, LA Times (June 1999)
Q: Were there any musical influences from the 60s that inspired the designs?
Deena Appel: A lot of Austin is not just film, but George Harrison was a big influence for me. I was looking at The Beatles and their transformation and just what a dandy George Harrison was specifically. And so there are very specific references to his style as well.

Then the question is wrong.
Sam didn't have 'a readiness to die' when season 8 ended. He was depressed because he felt that he let his brother down and was willing to make the maximum sacrifice to make things right. Dean was the one who kept saying that the trials were worth everything including the lives of the people they saved in the past.
When Dean asked Sam to stop, Sam did exactly that. Even in 9x1 when he found out he was dying, Sam said out loud that he stopped the trials trying not to die. Even then, Sam's subconscious kept fighting wanting for a solution until he accepted that nothing could be done.
Dean didn't just disrespect Sam's wishes, he tricked his brother. Dean asked Sam to live in season 8 finale and Sam accepted, he asked him to listen in 9x1 and Sam waited, but Dean couldn't be upfront about his plan and walked all over Sam's agency and consent.
hello. choose what your primary reason/opinion is, even if you think multiple are true. some options might seem to overlap but they're all distinct reasons. this is a big topic that can have real-world implications; please discuss rather than argue. i respect all of these moral stances and am interested to hear what people have to say. my own stance is that within the supernatural universe, because sam has already died several times over and death is ready to take him, maintaining/restoring cosmic balance by letting him die outweighs anything specific to the situation. have at it

And the show is not even subtle about it. Dean himself says in the first episode that the possession wasn't his call to make and that it was too big to hide from Sam. Then every episode ended with Dean's guilt face because he was aware that he was doing something terrible to his brother.
The fallout was always going to be Sam's suffering and everyone knew it. And then everyone treated Sam as a selfish criminal for being upset.
The show framed the story as if Dean's "guilt" for making Sam suffer deserved more sympathy than Sam's suffering. Even after Dean expressed no remorse or compassion when everything was revealed.
season nine pinnacle supernatural experience because dean's big crime of the season is being party to sam's thin-metaphor-for-rape & saying the whole time damn sam is going to be upset when he finds out about this. and sam's big crime of the seaon is being upset when he finds out about this.

George Harrison’s handwritten lyrics for ‘Art of Dying’
‘Art Of Dying’ is believed to have been written by George Harrison in 1966, but was not recorded until 1970.
Harrison’s original handwritten lyrics reveal mentions of Brian Epstein. In the final version, released on Harrison’s 1970 triple album All Things Must Pass, ‘Mr Epstein’ was reborn as ‘Sister Mary.’

George was always the most reluctant Beatle. He loved the music and he certainly enjoyed the girls on the road, but he hated the intrusion that came with being a Beatle. Several times he quit and each time Brian managed to cajole him back into the group. Brian always told George how much he would be letting the others down, how the Beatles would die if he ever left them, how the wonderful music he was making would be such a great loss to the world if he quit. Brian could be very persuasive when he put his mind to it. But the longer George went on, the harder it became for him to stop.

At least he made them play 100 takes of 'not guilty'.
George should’ve played them wah-wah. As a treat.

I often think of the song that George wrote for Ringo - it's just so so sweet and bless Ringo must have been so excited to get that 💚
“Ringo had never seen it until last Saturday [at the gallery/pop-up store]. He said, ‘Hey, I’ve never seen that before.’ And I said I hadn’t either,” Olivia explained. “I guess it was in the piano bench in an envelope. And there was this song called ‘Hey Ringo’ that they think was from around 1970 or 1971. And it’s really sweet. I’m going to get it framed and give it to him because it’s really sweet.” The lyrics include lines like, “That without you my guitar plays far too slow.”

Reading these lyrics makes me tear up - what they had was so special

That's the original writing 💚
