| Description: |
Actually, "Got My Mind Set on You" is a song written by Rudy Clark and originally recorded by James Ray in 1962. It is best known for the cover version released by George Harrison in 1987.
Of Harrison's three number-one singles in the US, it was the only song not written by Harrison and the only one without religious overtones. Not only was this the last US number 1 hit by Harrison, but from any of the ex-Beatles in the US. When the song hit number 1, it broke a three-way tie among Harrison, John Lennon and Ringo Starr, all of whom had two number 1 hit singles as solo artists. Paul McCartney leads in this category, with nine number 1 hits in the US. The single's B-side is "Lay His Head", written by Harrison. The 12-inch version of the single also adds an extended version of "Got My Mind Set On You". The single was also featured on his October 1988 album Cloud Nine.
