McCartney Times

Former member of The Beatles, George Harrison, was heavily into cinema. And although the I, Me, Mine writer was a peaceful individual, majorly influenced by Hindu spirituality, he was a big fan of the Lethal Weapon franchise. The action-packed series was so enticing to him that he even sought out an opportunity to get involved with the film’s production.

Harrison got involved with Lethal Weapon 2 in 1989, writing the song Cheer Down for it. The track was written by the Beatle in collaboration with American musician Tom Petty. It was featured in the closing credits of the movie which starred Mel Gibson and Danny Glover.

In fact, Gibson was a big Beatles fan himself. And ten years later, in 1999, he was in London working on the score for his new film The Patriot. He was recording the film’s soundtrack at Abbey Road Studios and had learned that Harrison was just upstairs working on his own music.
