"When We Was Fab" is a song by English musician George Harrison, which he released on his 1987 album Cloud Nine. It was also issued as the second single from the album, in January 1988. The lyrics serve as a nostalgic reflection by Harrison on the days of Beatlemania during the 1960s, when the Beatles were first referred to as "the Fab Four". Harrison co-wrote the song with Jeff Lynne, who also co-produced the track. The recording references the psychedelic sound that the Beatles had helped popularise in 1967, through its use of sitar, cello, and backwards-relayed effects. Harrison's former Beatles bandmate Ringo Starr is among the other musicians on the track. The single was accompanied by an innovative music video, directed by the partnership of Kevin Godley and Lol Creme. One of Harriso

  • When We Was Fab est une chanson de George Harrison, qu'il a publiée sur son album de 1987, Cloud Nine. Elle est également sortie en janvier 1988 comme deuxième single de l'album. Les paroles de la chanson servent de reflet nostalgique à l'époque de la Beatlemania dans les années 60, lorsque les Beatles furent appelés pour la première fois "The Fab Four".

Ringo Starr, ancien batteur des Beatles, fait partie des musiciens sur la chanson. Le single était accompagné d'un clip vidéo novateur, réalisé par le partenariat de Ke (fr)
