"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a rock song by The Beatles from the double album The Beatles (also known as The White Album).
It was written by George Harrison, who originally performed it with a solo acoustic guitar and an organ; a demo version, longer than the officially released version, can be heard on the Anthology 3 album and in reworked form on the Love album. Eric Clapton played lead guitar on the album version of the song with a Gibson Les Paul guitar. On The Concert for Bangladesh, he performed it on a Gibson Byrdland guitar, and later acknowledged that a solid-body guitar would have been more appropriate.
In 2004 George Harrison was inducted posthumously into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" was played in tribute by fellow inductee Prince, along with Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, and Dhani Harrison (video).
The song was ranked #135 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
