The released song is credited to "Starkey, Richard" (Ringo Starr). But years later Ringo stated that he wrote the song with George Harrison. Some say Harrison wrote the song and gave it to Ringo, as it has a feeling and style that seems George's. But Ringo certainly was a talent in his own right. The lead vocals are Ringo's, and the backing tracks are by Badfinger's Pete Ham and Tom Evans. George Harrison, as producer of the final version, seems to have got a "Hare Krishna" line into the backing vocals, but the final mix makes it difficult to hear. Written and recorded in 1970, the song wasn't released until April 1971.
