“He was my best friend,” says Ringo softly. “Yeah. I loved Harry.”
rolling stone interview
“Ringo and I spent a thousand hours laughing,” Nilsson said.
ringo: with a little help, by michael seth starr
Tumblr media
Mark Hudson: “I think that Harry's friendship with John was also very very close, but I - I don't think it was as intimate as his relationship with Ringo Starr.”
Harry Nilsson: “I had a relationship with John - we were roommates a couple of times you know, short times […] But uh, Ringo and I are the, Ringo and I are friends. It's funny I always thought I would be closer to John but then over the years Ringo and I ended up being pals.”
Michael Seth Starr: Harry, born in Brooklyn, New York, in June 1941, was less than a year younger  than Ringo. They were both three years old when their fathers (Richard and Edward,  respectively) abandoned their families, never to return.  They both enjoyed alcohol and practical jokes and were garrulous in nature, at  least early in their relationship. Neither man had completed any semblance of an education. Ringo left school at the age of fifteen; Nilsson, who was extremely  bright, dropped out of school in the ninth grade. 
Ringo Starr: “I think I could always call Harry, night and day, and he would come and save me. I'm very lucky with friends like that.”
Chris O'Dell: “They became really, really close friends, and a lot of it was based on how much  alike they were. They shared a sense of humour. You can never  underestimate Ringo’s sense of humour. It’s there, it’s a huge part of who he is.  Harry was also like that. [...] They were like brothers.”
Harry Nilsson: “I saw Ringo in an interview once looking very nervous saying “Well I'm probably the best rock and roll drummer in the world” and the truth is he is. But he looked very scared saying it. I could see him being scared about it, not scared, but not comfortable about it. And I wanted to be right there and say “Yes! You are! It's okay! You are the best rock and roll drummer in the world ever. That's it. Period, the end.”
Doug Hoefer (Harry's Cousin): “They would fight about shit  and hang up on each other. Then time would go by and one of them would call the  other back and they would pick up where they’d left off. I’m not really sure exactly how they pissed each other off, but they would . . . because Harry had a very strong personality as well.” 
Stephanie La Motta: “He said, ‘I’m Harry’ and he goes searching all over the  place - and I’m screaming for Ringo - who comes out and hugs Harry, because he  loved Harry. They had a special bond. It was unbelievable this bond I saw between  them. He loved Harry as much as Harry loved him.”  (she was screaming because Harry was barging into their hotel room and she had no idea who he was)
Ringo Starr: “Harry’s no longer with us. He’s been gone 20 years now. I still miss him.”

Music played this way All I need is my imagination Take me far away Where I can be with everyone who loves me
Harry's Song, by Ringo, 2008
There's no more oyster bar There's no more Ringo Starr There's no one left to love but you and me
UCLA, by Harry Nilsson
Ringo paid for Harry to have cosmetic dentistry to straighten his front teeth. [...] Some of Nilsson's closest friends believed that self-consciousness about his crooked teeth had been a significant factor in his decision not to appear in live concerts. Samantha Juste, for example, said: "He didn't have great teeth. I remember when he had his teeth fixed, it did a lot for him. In the early days he didn't smile really. Those teeth made a big difference to him, and to his confidence."
- from "Nilsson, The Life of a Singer Songwriter" by Alyn Shipton
Most commentators have focused on "You're Breakin' My Heart" as the one song that expressed Nilsson's emotional torment about [his wife's] departure. However, there is another interpretation, which was that it represented his first quarrel with Ringo Starr. There are coded references to Starr and their social life together, notably in the lines, "You won't boogaloo - Run down to Tramps - Have a dance or two". The reference to the Beatles' Drive My Car [You won't drive my car, might be a star] is another clue to this possible interpretation.
- again from "Nilsson, The Life of a Singer Songwriter"
For reasons of his own, Ringo did not attend Harry’s funeral, which was held on  January 17, a day that was rocked by aftershocks from an earthquake in nearby  Northridge. He claimed to be too grief-stricken, and Barbara went in his place.
- from Ringo: With A Little Help, by Michael Seth Starr
"We tried every which way to get Ringo to talk on camera. What came back to us each time was that there are three people he just does not feel comfortable talking about in person: John Lennon, George Harrison and Harry Nilsson. It’s just too emotional for him and I totally respect his feelings on the matter. Ringo was, however, tremendously supportive of the film including providing us with photos and making it possible to use Son of Drac, a film that Ringo and Harry made in the early 1970s but has been locked away in a London vault since 1974. At the end of the day, we were happy to have his support and understood the decision he made. Sometime later we had heard that he saw the film and liked it but thought some things were missing from the story. And I said to myself, “Yeah, Ringo, you were missing…” (laughs).

Hello! For the WIP ask game, THE OLD GUARD - 2 OLD 2 GUARD AU (curious about this since I remember (if my memory hasn’t failed me lmao) you posting a snippet or so about this au!)
Oh yes! I have written for The Old Guard AU before. You can find it here, for anybody interested! I also have a tag for it (#tog au). Anyway, this doc is a continuation of that + several notes about Nix and Dick's long, immortal life. I've shared about it before, and I'm a little stingy with it, since I do plan to post it in its entirety before the end of November, so I'm just gonna post an excerpt on Nix and Dick's weapon's of choice. Because in The Old Guard (movie and comic book), the story in which this AU is based in, the immortals all have distinct weapons that come from the time periods they were made immortal in. So I thought it'd be so badass (read: sexy) for Nix and Dick to also get their own distinct weapon.
Excerpt (from character sheets):
Lew's sword is a Mainz Gladius made of steel. Technically, it's not a sword he would have had, since it was used in the later half of the 1st century BC (namely 15BC) in the more Germanic region of central Europe instead of in 58-50BC Gaul, where Lew and Dick first meet. But it is the most sexy of the Roman gladiuses of the 1st century BC, and therefore it is the sword I gave Lewis. It is primarily a defensive stabbing sword, though it is thick enough to withstand slashing motions. Ideally, Lew would be using a long shield made of wood alongside it. But then again, ideally, he wouldn't be bringing a Roman gladius that's several centuries old to a firefight, either. Anyway. Because it's a short sword, it's a short range weapon, requiring him to get up-close and personal with the soldiers he attacks here.
Dick's sword is a Celtic Long Sword fashioned like the swords from the La Tène III period, with a thick blade, rounded tip, and sharp sides. Not for stabbing, like Lew's gladius, but for slashing and pummeling. It's a bit more long range, so Dick is graced with a little bit more distance between himself and his opponent than Lewis is. Again, it would be ideal if Dick used a shield alongside it (a rounder, wider one), but it's understandable why he can't be afforded the luxury of one at the moment.
It's also important to note that the sword he's using was originally made of Iron. And since he was a warrior of very high ranking (maybe even a king, if the name Lew chose for him to go by a few centuries later (Richard) is anything to go by), it might've been the best kind of iron Dick's celtic tribe had.
Although, it should be said that both Lew and Dick's weapons are a Ship of Theseus kinda deal now (like Andromache's battle axe in The Old Guard comics/movie). Obviously, the swords won't last as long as they do without upkeep, whether it be the shaft, the blade tip, the hilt, or so on and so forth. They've been through all kinds of artisans and black smiths, so when I say the sword is a centuries old, it's more likely just a few decades from its last major fixing. Dick's sword most likely has a steel blade by the time Canon era comes around, instead of the original Iron. But if you were to ask Lew and Dick, they'd say that these swords are still the original ones they used to first kill each other, way back when. Just like how Andromache's battle axe is still her mother's axe.
(Also also I just think that it would be real sexy if in the 21st century, their swords have now become black high-carbon steel blades. Same shape and weight, of course, but just. All black, with a stronger, more sleek looking hilt? It's just sexy. It's very very sexy.) ........... Much less believable, unfortunately, is the logistics of smuggling two swords into war with you while you're under the scrutiny of a military institution. I don't think they had the swords with them in Toccoa. They probably mailed it to a secure location in England first, upon learning that they were going to Europe, and then smuggled it in through their footlockers. Lew's gladius would've fit a footlocker just fine. Dick's long sword, though, would be in need of some maneuvering-- it could fit if it lay diagonally. Furthermore, Lew's sword could be easily excused as an extra long knife. He'd usually keep it on his dominant side, and unsheathe it using his dominant hand turned inwards. Very easily concealable. Dick, on the other hand, will have to carry it on his back, since it is a slashing sword instead of a stabbing one, so it would make sense that he'd use a position that will allow him to draw it upward, where the next move would then be to arc it down. Harder to excuse away. Why would a ww2 soldier be carrying a sword around? Not to mention how dangerous it would be if said sword or its scabbard got entangled with the strap of his rifle or the holster of his glock. But idk, Dick's so self-possessed I think he'd find a way around it. And I think, at this point in the war, the Easy men don't quite care or are too busy they won't have time to dig up the answers.
