This song seems sweetly appropriate for a Beatles montage. "According to the official Concert for George website, 'Ringo Starr caught everyone with a tear in their eye with a rendition of 'Photograph', a composition he wrote with George, which seemed to sum up how everyone felt.' In this concert, Starr mentioned that the song took on a whole new meaning after the passing of Harrison. The lyrics were believed to be poignantly appropriate for this occasion, including:
Ev'ry time I see your face,
It reminds me of the places we used to go.
But all I've got is a photograph,
And I realise you're not coming back anymore.
[...]
I can't get used to living here,
While my heart is broke, my tears I cried for you.
I want you here to have and hold,
As the years go by and we grow old and grey." (Wikipedia.org)
