Cover art for Cheer Down lyrics by George Harrison

This is a Fantastic song written by Tom Petty,& George. However it was CoProduced by Jeff Lynne who also did backing vocals, and Richard Tandy played as well. Eric Clapton was also involved. ALL GENIUSES..When George used to get get overly happy & excited, she used to tell him to "Cheer Down"...No depression, quite the opposite in meaning.

Olivia, would say this to George all the time.
