Here Comes the Sun

I'm going to go out on a limb here: I know that George Harrison's contributions to Abbey Road (this song and "Something" are what made his late-Beatles-era reputation, but nice as they are, I think they're a bit too overrated and earnest. For me, he's trying a little too hard here to sell the sunny optimism. If Paul had written that "Sun, sun, sun, here it comes" bit in the middle, he'd be taken to task for being too saccharine. George deserved his moment in the spotlight, but even a back-burner number like "Not Guilty" holds up better for me.
