Guest O.J. Hart Posted July 19, 2002 Report Posted July 19, 2002 Well, I love almost all the songs done by the late George Harrison, so here's my list 1. While My Guitar Gently Weeps(Harrison) 2. Something(Harrison) 3. Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Harts Club Band(McCartny) 4. Maxwell's Silver Hammer(McCartny) 5. The Ballad of John ond Yoko(Lennon) Those are the only Beatles I could listen to all day and not be tempted to kill myself. do like all the work of the Beatles, but these are the ones that are timeless for me. You guys have any old favorites?
Guest Phr33k Posted July 21, 2002 Report Posted July 21, 2002 5) Something 4) Revolution #9 3) Let It Be 2) Here Comes The Sun 1) In My Life Shockingly enough, I also like... "Doctor Robert". BTW, O.J, why is one of your tag-team a pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds?
Guest O.J. Hart Posted July 21, 2002 Report Posted July 21, 2002 I can answer that question for you Phr33k. You see, me and Chris are good friends and stuff. I always go to see him when the Reds are in town(at PNC Park) and he always enjoys talking to me. You can say we are basically really good friends. I put him on my Team Canada because he is from Canada and he is my homie. His wife is cool too. I put her in there for show effects. I don't know if she's originally from Canada though. Don't start putting pointless stuff in this thread though about my Team Canada. Keep talking about the beatles.

Guest godthedog Posted July 23, 2002 Report Posted July 23, 2002 can't answer. i can barely pick a favorite beatles album, much less a favorite song.
Guest dilk bathoon Posted July 24, 2002 Report Posted July 24, 2002 favorite song is easily "i want you (she's so heavy)" from abbey road.
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Posted July 24, 2002 Report Posted July 24, 2002 This changes every week. The three that are always there...um..."Let It Be," "Golden Slumbers," and "You Never Give Me Your Money." Seriously, I can't do this. I need 30, at least, to do the Beatles. ::explodes::
Guest Alice_In_Chains_Chick Posted July 27, 2002 Report Posted July 27, 2002 Yesterday and Let it Be (I truley like all their songs)
Guest The Man in Blak Posted July 27, 2002 Report Posted July 27, 2002 What's hilarious is that one person's favorite Beatles song (see Revolution 9, I Want You (She's So Heavy)) is another person's bane. But, like godthedog, I have enough problems debating over which album I like best, let alone which song, but I'll just randomly sift through these albums and put down which songs I really, really like, in no particular order. Ticket To Ride In My Life Lady Madonna Eleanor Rigby Tomorrow Never Knows Strawberry Fields Forever Hey Bulldog I Am The Walrus Revolution While My Guitar Gently Weeps I Want You (She's So Heavy) Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) Hey Jude Long, Long, Long Yer Blues If I absolutely had to pick three... Tomorrow Never Knows Strawberry Fields Forever Revolution
Guest The Mountie Posted July 27, 2002 Report Posted July 27, 2002 All the stuff mentioned pretty much rules. I think Abbey Road is their best album personally. Songs you haven't mentioned that I think are great include: Back In The USSR I'm Only Sleeping Revolution Nowhere Man Here Comes The Sun Octopus's Garden and from the older stuff: Help! From Me To You She Loves You All classics
Guest The Mountie Posted July 27, 2002 Report Posted July 27, 2002 OK, I see someone mentioned Revolution already.
Guest spiny norman Posted July 28, 2002 Report Posted July 28, 2002 I love Jealous Guy, Woman and Maybe I'm Amazed, but they aren't really counted, are they? 5. Strawberry Fields 4. Let It Be 3. Yesterday 2. Something 1. A Day In The Life
Guest Mad the Swine Posted July 28, 2002 Report Posted July 28, 2002 Eleanor Rigby Life Goes On We Can Work It Out
Guest La Parka Es Mi Papa Posted July 29, 2002 Report Posted July 29, 2002 I can't beleive nobody has mentioned Day Tripper. My favs: Happiness Is A Warm Gun Day Tripper Come Together Strawberry Fields Forever Helter Skelter Revolution 9 A Day In The Life
Guest GeneMean Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 Maxwell's Silver Hammer Rocky Racoon Hey Jude Across the Universe Here Comes the Sun
Guest The Man in Blak Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 I love Jealous Guy, Woman and Maybe I'm Amazed, but they aren't really counted, are they? Well, if it makes you feel better, "Jealous Guy" was originally written by John as "Child of Nature" during the Beatles' trip to India. There was even a demo cut of it, but it was never fleshed out any further during the recordings for the white album...years later, John picked up the song, wrote new (and hugely improved) lyrics, and boom - you've got one of Lennon's classic solo works.
Guest starvenger Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 My two favourites are 'Elanor Rigby' and 'Here, There and Everywhere'.
Guest Youth N Asia Posted July 30, 2002 Report Posted July 30, 2002 1. You Got To Hide Your Love Away 2. Yesterday 3. Across the Universe 4. A Day In The Life 5. Revolution 6. Hey Jude 7. Something 8. Let it Be 9. Twist and Shout 10. Gloden Slumbers/Carry That Weight
Guest Shaved Bear Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 Revolution Money can't buy me love Yesterday
Guest dilk bathoon Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 a little off-topic, but i was listening to 'lennon live in new york' today, and theres a pretty funny part where they're about to play "come together", and he says "this is the only song i'm playing tonight that i wrote in the past, before i quit......the rolling stones". and everyone laughed.
Guest goodhelmet Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 i started a thread similar to this in frbruary. it received 4 replies and promptly disappeared. oh well. my all time favorite beatles' song is.... i'm so tired. (the perfect pop song) other fav's include baby, you're a rich man she came in through the bathroom window sexy sadie helter skelter you never give me your money i am the walrus in my life two of us i've got a feeling i'm looking through you she said, she said got to get you into my life you can't do that i've just seen a face hey jude strawberry fields forever hey bulldog it's all too much don't let me down any time at all i should have known better lovely rita till there was you i will happiness is a warm gun a day in the life there are so many other but that's all i can think of off the top of my head!
Guest O.J. Hart Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 Wow, glad to see someone besides me likes Maxwell's Silver Hammer. Thanks for making me not feel alone GeneMean!!! I find it funny because the song is about a boy on a killing spree with a hammer killing a girl, his teacher, then the judge. And they thought today's songs were violent.
Guest bob_barron Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 a little off-topic, but i was listening to 'lennon live in new york' today, and theres a pretty funny part where they're about to play "come together", and he says "this is the only song i'm playing tonight that i wrote in the past, before i quit......the rolling stones". and everyone laughed. I have the tape too- it kicks ass! My top 5- Something Long and Winding Road Twist-n-Shout Strawberry Fields Forever Hey Jude
