Think for Yourself "Think for Yourself" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1965 album "Rubber Soul". It was written by George Harrison, the band's lead guitarist, and, together with "If I Needed Someone", marked the start of his emergence as a songwriter beside John Lennon and Paul McCartney. The song's lyrics advocate independent thinking and reflect the Beatles' more sophisticated subject matter at this stage of their career. The lyrics have invited interpretation as both a political statement and a love song, as Harrison dismisses a lover or friend in a tone that some commentators liken to Bob Dylan's song "Positively 4th Street". Among musicologists, the composition has been recognised as adventurous in the degree of tonal ambiguity it employs across parallel major and minor keys and through its suggestion of multiple musical modes.

If I Needed Someone "If I Needed Someone" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles, written by George Harrison. It was released in December 1965 on their album "Rubber Soul", except for in North America, where it appeared on the 1966 release "Yesterday and Today". The song reflects Harrison's nascent interest in Indian classical music and, through its folk rock styling and use of Rickenbacker twelve-string electric guitar, it serves as an example of the influences exchanged between the Beatles and the American group the Byrds during the mid 1960s. A recording by the Hollies was issued in Britain on the same day as "Rubber Soul" and peaked at number 20 on the national singles chart. This success gave Harrison his first chart hit as a songwriter, although his criticism of the Hollies' performance led to a terse exchange in the press between the two groups.

Tell Me What You See "Tell Me What You See" is a song by the Beatles that first appeared in 1965 on their album "Help!" in the United Kingdom and on "Beatles VI" in the United States. As with all Beatles compositions by either of the two, the song is credited to Lennon–McCartney. Regarding the song's authorship, Paul McCartney said, "I seem to remember it as mine. I would claim it as a 60-40 but it might have been totally me." Lennon said, in his interviews with "Playboy" (1980) and "Hit Parader" (1972), that "Tell Me What You See" was written completely by McCartney.

A Letter to the Beatles "A Letter to the Beatles" is a novelty song by the Four Preps. It was released as a single on March 9, 1964, by Capitol Records who had both the Beatles and the Four Preps signed to their roster. The song parodies the Beatlemania of the era, telling the story of a woman who expresses her undying love for the Beatles in a series of letters, to which the Beatles respond by insisting she send "25 cents for an autographed picture" and "one dollar bill for a fan club card". In the end, the woman sends in the money. The track was co-written by two of the Four Preps, Glen Larson and Bruce Ballard and includes parts of the Beatles' song "I Want to Hold Your Hand."

All Things Must Pass All Things Must Pass is a triple album by English musician George Harrison. Recorded and released in 1970, the album was Harrison's first solo work since the break-up of the Beatles in April that year, and his third solo album overall. It includes the hit singles "My Sweet Lord" and "What Is Life", as well as songs such as "Isn't It a Pity" and the title track that had been turned down for inclusion on releases by the Beatles. The album reflects the influence of Harrison's musical activities with artists such as Bob Dylan, the Band, Delaney & Bonnie and Billy Preston during 1968–70, and his growth as an artist beyond his supporting role to former bandmates John Lennon and Paul McCartney. "All Things Must Pass" introduced Harrison's signature sound, the slide guitar, and the spiritual themes that would be present throughout his subsequent solo work. The original vinyl release consisted of two LPs of songs and a third disc of informal jams, titled "Apple Jam". Several commentators interpret Barry Feinstein's album cover photo, showing Harrison surrounded by four garden gnomes, as a statement on his independence from the Beatles.
