    He and John were in a mutual admiration society at the time. George named "Because" as his favorite Abbey Road song; John cited "Something" as his favorite. And they both hated Paul's "Silver Hammer."

    George modestly refers to "that synthesizer" he used on parts of the album. His synth work is subtle and beautiful (it's the best part, IMO, of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer").

    Harrison's comments on "I Want You" establish that John's use of time changes was unconscious ("If you ask [John] about it, he doesn't know").

    And so did Paul.
