Top 20 isn’t enough, I’d have too many joint firsts and seconds etc.

Times I find it hard to say / With useless words getting in my waySuprised about this one.Sad about this one

Agree with “For No One ” and “Here, There, and Everywhere” being on that list.

Seriously though, I don’t think I could ever choose a top-20. I could list twice as many great ones. But sure, let’s have a go. Take the order with salt to taste, though. 

 

  1. I’ve Just Seen A Face
  2. Till There Was You
  3. I Will
  4. Oh! Darling
  5. I’m Down
  6. When I’m Sixty-Four
  7. For No One
  8. Here There And Everywhere
  9. Helter Skelter
  10. Blackbird
  11. I Saw Her Standing There
  12. The Night Before
  13. Honey Pie
  14. Why Don’t We Do It In The Road
  15. Mother Nature’s Son
  16. She’s Leaving Home
  17. Eleanor Rigby
  18. I’ll Be On My Way
  19. Back In The USSR
  20. Paperback Writer

Yes. I hate every single Beatles song that wasn’t written or sung by Paul. Every last one. John, George, and Ringo suck. Totally. a-hard-days-night-paul-5

I can’t stand anything not written by George. And I totally didn’t take a line from a Paul song for my username. And you never, ever heard me rave about Here, There And Everywhere or And I Love Her or All My Loving or any of my least favourite Beatles songs. 

Two can play at this game! a-hard-days-night-john-6

Me, i’m a fake solo Beatles fan. In truth I hate it all and find everything recorded after April 1970 to be utterly contemptible and a plague on the name “Beatles”.

Myself, I think it should be either Paul doing covers or Paul songs without any significant contribution by John (whether Paul sings them or not).

It’s why I disagree with those who have included Getting Better  in their lists, as the verse in that that people return to again and again is John’s “I used to be cruel to my woman…”. That’s a definite Lennon/McCartney song to me, and not a Paul song, even though he sings it.

meanmistermustard Don’t tell anyone I told you, but I’m actually not a Beatles fan at all. I think it’s all rubbish. I’m just here because I’m bored. I’m actually a Belieber. But, don’t tell anyone I told you, alright?
