over the last couple of months i started to get really into The Beatles... My personal favorites are With A Little Help From My Friend i really like Ringo's voice, kinda wish he sang on more songs... Lady Madonna is another one i really like, and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds! honorable mentions I Am The Walrus, Strawberry Fields Forever, and Maxwell Silver Hammer

I like Dear Prudence and Because myself. -
Still a great song by A member of the Beatles. -
My favorites are Tommorow Never Knows, and Taxman from Revolver, Norwegian Wood from Rubber Soul, Piggies from the white albumn, and I Am the Walrus from Magical Mystery Tour.

It hasn't been mentioned, so I feel the need - 'I've Just Seen A Face'. Written by Paul, in my opinion, it is the most perfectly written song of all time. And at a wiry-thin 2:08, it steals itself from us before we even get a chance to get into it.
If you haven't heard it, YOU MUST. You will be playing it endlessly into the night.

let it be

michelle for the guitar solo. i love the tone of the guitar.
the white album. yeah, the whole thing. -
Mrs. robinson by far. Something about it makes me wonder what it would have been like to live in that time on american history...everyone just seemed so happy the way they talk about it. Baseball, apple pie, love thy mother, love thy father.....simplistic, yet original. I know that strays from what the song is about since it requests new hero's and you can sense a change in direction for the attitude of this country.
I love Lucy In the Sky but thats more from the Grateful Dead. Strawberry Fields, Imagine, Dear Prudence, I want to Hold Your Hand are also songs I love. -
Imagine is a John Lennon song not a Beatles song. Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds is on Sgt. Peppers so it qualifies.

In My Life
Let it Be (Naked version) -

Firesole picked my favorite, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." I also like "Eleanor Rigby" and "Come Together." There's a ton of great songs though, it's really tough to try and pick my absolute favorites ... there are some songs that I listen to depending on my mood.
EDIT: If you want to try and get into their stuff, you might give the Anthology albums a shot ... that was how I got into them. That or one of the greatest hits compilations that are out there. -
the songs i don't like are "why don't we do it in the road".. I think there's one other but I can't think of it right now.
it is a FANTASTIC album. my next favorite is sgt. peppers.Vengeful Odin likes this. -
I also thought the Love album was really well done ... although it was a cash grab. -
the second half of abby road is wonderful. all those songs blended together. paul mccartney hated that idea.

i like helter skelter for the little guitar doodle they do there.

I'm more of a Stones Girl myself. In my experience, people either love the stones or love the beatles. I love the stones.
That being said, my fav beatles songs are Helter Skelter, Blackbird, and Back in the USSR.
Helter Skelter is about a slide. How Manson got killing out of those lyrics is beyond me....Jt0323 likes this. -
