I love this song. it's so wistful. Kind of the way I am thinking about my 401k that is now worth about $1.49. But seriously, I do love this song. And here's the charming backstory of it's title from George Harrson's autobiography "I, Me, Mine":
"While writing the words we got to the middle part which I call the 'bridge', so I put that on the paper with the words. Eric was sitting opposite me and he looked at the paper - upside down to him - and cracked up: he said 'what's that - badge?' and I said 'it's bridge'. So later Eric called the song Badge. It's funny, now he actually sings in concert at the end of the song 'Where is my badge?'."
Ah, such a simple, carefree time it was then. Sigh.
