All the massive corporations that told us we weren’t beautiful- that we weren’t object of affection – are suddenly screaming at us to love ourselves, And if we don’t love ourselves, all the time, we’re the problem. The quirky video shows Harrison surrounded by household objects that move on their own. It helped market the song at a time when MTV was still playing a lot of videos and VH1 had recently gone on the air. None from Silicon Valley, Caas for me, I relate this song to my son before he came to live with me. It did take time, a whole lot of precious time, patience and money, a whole lot of spending money, to get him and live with me in the US. And, I had my mind set on him and I did it right. This was my song to him.

Guillermo from Miami, Flthis was the last number one by a beatle in america,my sweet lord,was the first. Lisa from Nyc, NyWhen I first listened to this song, it was from a VERY VERY VERY old and broken radio, so it sounded as though Georgie were saying, "Look out, I might sit on you..." Marc from London, Englandso, what does it mean.. "its gonna take money,, a while lot of spending money" ?? I don’t think confidence and self-worth is something you magically attain. And you don’t simply hold onto it forever like a tangible object. It’s fluid. You can be confident in every aspect except one. Or something could happen and all your confidence can be shattered in an instant.no way is this song as good as :let's dance or :china girl. no way no way. I can't tap to it on the radio because I'd turn the dial so fast George's head would spin. This song captivates me still, after 50+ years. Takes me to the deep South and the poverty of some who lived thru truly hard times. And the powerful spirit of a poor young girl being abandoned to her future with only a red dress and her wits to keep her alive. Set on You is the lighthearted, sweet, and sexy book you’ve been waiting for. Lea’s delightful debut is a funny and poignant look into the power and perils of social media and the strength required to be vulnerable. Set On You beautifully captures the free-falling elation of realizing the person you can’t stand is the person you can’t stand to be without and the chemistry between Scott and Crystal sizzles. The gym has never seemed such a sexy and romantic place as in this book!”—Denise Williams, author of How to Fail at Flirting Got My Mind Set On You” is a footnote in a long and great career, but its success means that George Harrison was both the first and the last Beatle to hit #1. That’s something. Set on You is the best kind of workout: one that ups your heart rate with its swoony hero, makes you sweat with its slow-burn tension, and leaves you satisfied with its themes of empowerment and self-acceptance. With a fresh, hilarious voice and a deeply relatable protagonist, this romantic comedy is enemies-to-lovers gold.”—Rachel Lynn Solomon, national bestselling author of The Ex Talk

Curvy fitness influencer Crystal Chen built her career by breaking with gym stereotypes and largely ignoring trolls. With little energy left for men after her recent breakup, she instead finds solace in the gym, her place of strength and positivity. I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Secondary characters are amazing, especially Tara- Crystal’s sister and Mel- Crystal’s friend and client. I so wish to have Tara’s story and I hope author make this a series for it. Crystal’s family is fun. Her grandmother marrying Scott’s grandfather makes the story even more lovely.

Retrieved September 26, 2015.I loved the way author represented body positivity and how it’s not just about body positivity but about self-acceptance, body respect and self-love, importance of staying focused on the journey of being healthy and strong not just focused on losing weight and measuring calories. It’s okay to feel bad and low sometimes as self-love is not a constant thing but a journey, there always will be ups and downs, and keeping loved ones and supporters close make this journey more lovely and beautiful. Writing is entertaining, engaging, and fast paced with first person narrative from Crystal’s perspective. The plot is interesting and light-hearted with realistic and relatable characters and important topics that we don’t see often in this genre. Steven from Henderson, NvGeorge didn't write this song but it's obvious to me he chose it for the main lyric: "Got my mind set on you (Krishna). Does anyone remember that on the TV series VEGAS with James Caan, a band played "Got My Mind Set On You," while marching through the Montecito Casino at the end of an episode.

The band recorded it then and there with no intention of including it on the album, but not only did producer Lenny Waronker recognize it is as a potential single, but Harrison’s son said the same thing.

In The Number Ones, I’m reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart’s beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present. The song was included in the Harrison compilation albums Best of Dark Horse 1976–1989 (1989) and Let It Roll: Songs by George Harrison (2009). Talking to Musician, Harrison said that he decided to record “Got My Mind Set On You” because Keltner came up with a beat that sounded like swing. The keyboardist Gary Wright had commented that it sounded a bit like “Got My Mind Set On You.” (Wright had been playing on Harrison’s records since All Things Must Pass. As a solo artist, Wright’s two biggest hits, 1976’s “Dream Weaver” and “Love Is Alive,” both peaked at #2. “ Dream Weaver” is a 9, and “ Love Is Alive” is an 8.) Harrison couldn’t believe that anyone else remembered the song. Being half Mexican and half White, I could understand Crystal’s issues arising from being half white and half Asian (not the same but similar expectations of you not being white enough or not being the other half enough). However, this was not the main conclusion.

At first, I wasn’t sure what think about him with his childish competitive behavior and that smug confidence, making Crystal worked up but as we know him more, like Crystal, we see him in a different light. He is handsome muscular firefighter with heart of gold. He is caring, lovely, and compassionate guy whose life hasn’t been as easy as his looks. It was surprising to read he was lanky, nerdy guy in school who has been bullied by other kids. His smugness is all part of show and from within he is as vulnerable as Crystal.
