2. Things we said today
3. In my life

YESTERDAY

IN MY LIFE

TAXMAN

HERE, THERE, AND EVERYWHERE

I WANT TO TELL YOU

WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS

I WANT YOU (SHE'S SO HEAVY)

OH! DARLING

BLACKBIRD

HERE COMES THE SUN

REVOLUTION

I know, that's 11, but I couldn't bear to cut any more out! 8)

Let It Be and Lady Madonna....

and all the rest.

:D

Wow. I love almost every Beatle song.

Strawberry Field Forever- very surreal

I'm a Loser- I love when John dips to hit that low note

Paperback Rider- What a great and heavy guitar riff. Also the French song in the background (don't know how to spell "fair a zjah ka" :D )

Hey Bulldog- love the heavy riff, the barking, and "I've got blisters on my finger!"

In my life- beautiful and honest song, love the solo. Is that a harpsichord??

The Walrus- Wierd man, spooky. Singing about Edgar Allen Poe, how cool can you get? Love the chords with the 5th on the bass. Bury my body! Bless you Grandfather.

You Won't See Me- love the melody.

I Will - Doesn't get much prettier than this song.

Fool on the Hill - I love this song because I learned to play the recorder pretty well in 4th grade. I can play this part.

Lady Madonna - This song has a great groove.

Baby You're a Rich Man - Hard song to get ahold of. My brother bought the 45 single of Love is All You Need. I believe this was the B side. Love the high notes John sings.

You Know My Name (Look up the number) - Beatles humor at it's best.

Life Goes On You and Without You - Wow, beautiful instrumentation. What a great singer George Harrison was.

Lovely Rita - This song turned me on just listening to it. I gotta tell ya, I fantasized about Rita. But then I was about 15 years old. I fantasized about girls all the time at that age.

The End - I spent about a month learning this great guitar solo. I love the drums as well.

A Day in the Life - "Woke up, got outta bed, dragged a comb across my head"

I Want to Hold Your Hand - The song that started it all. Ringo is total energy on the cymbals.

Taxman - George Harrison could play nasty lead guitar anytime he chose to.

Old Brown Shoe - "I want a love that's right, but right's only half of what's wrong" I can relate.

Get Back - Love the rhythm guitar that starts the intro.

You're Gonna Lose that Girl - How did they know??

Revolution - Smokin' intro, love when Paul screams. Wowwwww wowww wowww!! Great busted speaker distortion.

PS I Love You - just beautiful

I'm Looking Through You - Where did you go? You don't look different, but you have changed.

Good Day Sunshine- What a lighthearted song

Sheesh.... I like em all.

Paperback Rider- What a great and heavy guitar riff. Also the French song in the background (don't know how to spell "fair a zjah ka" :D )

Sheesh.... I like em all.

Frére Jacques

I always liked Rain. Man, gotta learn how to play backwards.

Thanks for the correct spelling Musenfreund :D

I think I made a mistake on Bulldog too. Later after I posted it occured to me that Ringo shouted "I've got blisters on my finger!" at the end of Helter Skelter. No??

Anyway, I love so many Beatle songs. It is amazing how many great hits they wrote. I believe at one time the Beatles had the 5 top songs in the country in the same week. It is hard to believe anyone will every be able to do something even close to that again.

It was Lennon who shouted "I've got blisters on my fingers" at the end of Helter Skelter....and according to the Guinness Book of Records, they were simultaneously top of the UK and American charts in both sigles and albums, and also had the #2 album and #2 3 4 & 5 singles in the USA....

:D :D :D

I'll make this easy.

Everything except Revolution #9 and Flying off of
Magical Mystery Tour. All the rest are Great!

i honestly cannot think of one song i like better than all the others.
they were too big a part of my musical adolesence to choose one out of all of them.

when i moved to so.cal. in 79' the radio stations would frequently play entire Beatles weekends A-Z or complete albums with very few interuptions.

i was amazed that i would always know the next song before it started, i'm sure there are more than a few here that can claim the same.

When I was in the 3rd grade, PS 63 in lower Manhattan circa 1968 a gorgeous girl named Jamie with stringy blonde hair and shabby clothes sang Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da in front of the class and stole my heart. After the 3rd grade she moved away and I never saw her again.

can't decide it's either

LET IT BE

or

HEY JUDE

both have real meaning to me

let it be played at my younger brothers funeral

Judy is my Sisters name ...

so both of them
