"My Sweet Lord" by George Harrison
Following the song's release, musical similarities between "My Sweet Lord" and The Chiffons' hit "He's So Fine" led to a lengthy legal battle over the rights to the composition. Billboard magazine, in an article dated 6 March 1971, stated that Harrison's royalty payments from the recording had been halted worldwide. Harrison stated that he was inspired to write "My Sweet Lord" after hearing the Edwin Hawkins Singers' "Oh Happy Day".
In the U.S. federal court decision in the case, known as Bright Tunes Music v. Harrisongs Music, Harrison was found to have unintentionally copied the earlier song. He was ordered to surrender the majority of royalties from "My Sweet Lord" and partial royalties from All Things Must Pass. Former manager Allen Klein, who earlier had supported Harrison's case, became the owner of Bright Tunes, after they parted ways. In the long run this worked against Klein, but it resulted in the case continuing for years in court.
The Chiffons would later record "My Sweet Lord" to capitalize on the publicity generated by the lawsuit.

Wow this is tough, I really love Instant Karma but then again, My Sweet Lord is beautiful. I'm going to cheat and say I like them both equally.
I like some of Ringo's new stuff, I don't know the song name but the lyrics are: (and I hope this is right)
"Your song will play on without you,
And the world won't forget about you..."
It's really good, you may want to look it up.
Wings, really great band but I didn't much care for that song. I don't know why...

I like them all, but none are favorites.
I suppose I'd pick "Instant Karma" just because it's a bit strange and has an interesting sound.
I always thought "Live and Let Die" was cheese... couldn't really get past the fractured English of, "this ever-changing world in which we live in" until I found out it's really "this ever-changing world in which we're livin' ". It's still cheese though... ;-)
peace
