Here's a question for you:
if you could choose 1 song from each album to create a compilation CD of their best, most innovative,or personal favourite works, what songs would you put on it?
I think for me it'd be most of my favourite songs, or I suppose the ones I think deserve to be heard by everyone.
But man, it's tough to choose, beware before you begin!
* Only one song from each album, remember!
** I think I'd allow 2 from the White Album though, since it is a double LP
Money (That's What I Want)
You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)
(This song cannot be ignored in my eyes- it's an absolute haunting, beautifully written, sarcastic, genius piece. Enough praise, eh?)
Tomorrow Never Knows / She Said She Said
(I couldn't decide!)
A Day In The Life / She's Leaving Home
(Couldn't decide again, A Day In The Life is a masterpiece, and I just love She's Leaving Home.)
Happiness Is A Warm Gun & Mother Nature's Son
Golden Slumbers / Carry That Weight / The End medley
-Phew- That was difffffffficult. Give it a try? I went in order of album release.
Tongue, lose thy light. Moon, take thy flight… see ya, George!

Hm, a challenging one. I appreciate some songs for their importance and innovation, but such songs are not always my favorites on a given album.
I also included one song from each of the Past Masters albums. Just because nobody said I couldn't.
You Can't Do That
I've Just Seen a Face
Girl
12.11pm
Thats really a hard thing to do.
Cant Buy Me Love
Rock 'n' Roll Music
You've Got To Hide Your Love Away
Back In The U.S.S.R.
That was incredible tough. I had to leave away so many classics
And in some cases I decided against my favourite songs, just because I thought, the people should hear the all-time classics. I would have loved to chose Baby's in Black and You Cant Do That.
Anyway: We miss the great Singles!
11.26pm
Well, I'll have a bash…
You've Got To Hide Your Love Away
Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)
Here, There, And Everywhere

There's a place
All I've got to do
You can't do that
Pepperland (ooh controversial but i just love it)
I went through them really quickly so as not to give myself too much time to think. Interesting, i always deny i'm more of a John fan than Paul but the proofs there i suppose
Onward my friends, and glory for the thirty ninth!!

By album, I'd have to say
Don't Bother Me
Baby's in Black
You're Going to Lose that Girl
Within You, Without You
and if I can put in one from Anthology or Past Masters
oh god this was hard… most albums had more than one I would love everyone to hear
Without going out of my door, I can know all things on Earth

Everybody’s Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey
Sgt. Pepper ‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)
Money (That’s What I Want)
Anna (Go To Him)
The Beatles Greatest Misses
When I Twish And Shout, it makes the Girl say "What Goes On?", and than I say, "I do this Here, There and Everywhere", and than she finishes by saying "Honey Don't".

You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away
Girl
Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite
Everbody’s Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey
Mine’s a little John heavy so I might have to change it.
I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine

I’ll go in whatever order since I feel like taking a mind dump.
Everybody’s Trying To Be My Baby
I’m Happy Just To Dance With You
While My Guitar Gently Weeps /Something To Hide except for me and my monkey
Just realized that every song on there is by the late great George Harrison (Despite what people think, I think Something To Hide was written by Lennon and Harrison)
"The best band? The Beatles. The most overrated band? The Beatles."

Well, Wikipedia (Ya, I know) stats that it is a Lennon composition (credited to Lennon/McCartney). Doesn’t really seems like a Harrison tune, it simply doesn’t.

Mhh and why not having a Lennon, McCartney and Harrison compilation? I did that once, they were 4 CDs, The fourth was with all Ringo songs.
I’m not sure about an all-Ringo cd, that means you would probably have to put If You’ve Got Trouble on there. There should be a frowning George Martin face.
