Badge (song)
"Badge" is a pop rock song performed by the British rock music supergroup Cream. It was written by Eric Clapton and George Harrison. It was included as a track on Cream's final album, ''Goodbye''. "Badge" was a minor hit in the United States, peaking at number 60 on ''Billboard'' magazine's Hot 100 after its release as a single in April 1969.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Billboard Hot 100 - Chart Listing For The Week Of May 03 1969 )〕 The single was much more successful in the United Kingdom, where it reached position 18.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=everyHit.com - UK Top 40 Chart Archive, British Singles & Album Charts )〕
==Composition==
"Badge" was originally an untitled track. During the production transfer for the album ''Goodbye'', the original music sheet was used to produce the liner notes and track listing. The only discernible word on the page was "bridge" (indicating the song's bridge section). Due to Harrison's handwriting, however, Clapton misread it as "badge" — and the song was titled soon thereafter.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=1333 )〕
Harrison remembered the story differently: "I helped Eric write "Badge" you know. Each of them had to come up with a song for that ''Goodbye'' Cream album and Eric didn't have his written. We were working across from each other and I was writing the lyrics down and we came to the middle part so I wrote 'Bridge.' Eric read it upside down and cracked up laughing-- 'What's BADGE?' he said. After that, Ringo () walked in drunk and gave us that line about the swans living in the park."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.beatlesbible.com/1968/11/21/george-harrison-performs-on-badge-cream/ )〕
A common legend or misconception is that the name came about because its chord progression is B-A-D-G-E, or simply because an anagram of a guitar's standard tuning (E-A-D-G-B-E) can be arranged to spell "Badge". However, this is not true.
