I don't know. It's true that Harrison has unique arrangements (and it's commendable given the smal -compared to the big two- amount of songs he made), but John and Paul have unique sounding songs too. I mean, you have I am the Walrus, Revolution, And Your Bird Can Sing, Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields Forever, Lucy In the Sky, Come Together, Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da, Happiness is a Warm Gun, Rocky Raccoon, Honey Pie, they all something unique. I admit though that some of the more commercial songs particulary in the first years are very similar sounding, but hey, every Beatles fan knows the real Beatles start after Rubber Soul |
The thing is, many of the songs you named can be attributed to one or the other (Lennon or McCartney) and well yes each did have some very unique characteristics I think mostly it comes down to the vocalist and not the arrangement (Although McCartney in particular had some songs that you could always very easily attribute to him like Rocky Raccoon, Honey Pie which have his very unique style to them) The thing about Harrison though is his experimentation with instruments like the Sitar (which is why I can't understand how you would not love Love You To, the uniqueness of that song alone sets it apart from most of their work).
