Sorry for the double post. Meant to say “hope there’s NOT another thread like this.” 🙂

Offline Rain (I'm beginning to see a trend here). Revolution is a close second.

Offline Interesting…I was expecting people to say Revolution , but glad it’s Rain . Such a great song (aren’t they all?) and much better than the “rain rain go away, come again another day” (half) song.

Offline Tricky because some B sides are really “double A” songs: Day Tripper , Strawberry Fields.
Revolution might have been one of those.
A real B side song was Yellow Submarine . Considering the impact of that song when it became a movie two years later, it would have to rank as an all time great B side regardless of its musical/lyrical merits. Right?
"Into the Sky with Diamonds" (the Beatles and the Race to the Moon – a history)

My first thought was, of course, “Rain .” But then I thought of “Old Brown Shoe ” and “We Can Work It Out ” and “I’m Down .” So now I’m undecided.
Nah, “Rain ” pwns.
If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.

I believe that was the “B Sides Better than A Sides” topic, which is slightly different

Yellow Submarine /Eleanor Rigby was a double A side.
It’s hard to say for me, Revolution is brilliant and Rain is really good too. I think Revolution shades it.
Edit: I always forget I Am The Walrus in these discussions. That's my favourite.
I told her I didn’t

Offline Beatles b-sides were never your average 'b-side' quality. How This Boy could only be a b-side is insane.
Anyway. Favourite. I'll go for Old Brown Shoe . Classic George. Out of the norm and vastly underrated.

Offline That really is difficult isn't it — naming a favourite B-side — considering the quality of the material. Several years ago, I burned a CD consisting of just the B-sides of all their British singles (I counted “Day Tripper “, “Yellow Submarine ” and “Strawberry Fields” as B-sides, even though I believe they shared A-side status with their flipsides) — and I thought to myself “man, if EMI released this, it would be a Number One seller — what other artist could release an album of their B-sides and top the charts?”).
Anyway, my favourite Beatle B-side is “Revolution ” — um.. or is it “I Am The Walrus “?…. or perhaps “Old Brown Shoe “… no….. “This Boy “… no, wait….
I've got nothing to say, but it's okay..
GOOD MORNING!
GOOD MORNING!!

Offline I like 'Old Brown Shoe ' Thought that should have been the A side.

Offline Let me think… I'm between This Boy , Yes It Is , Rain , I Am The Walrus , Revolution , Come Together and You Know My Name. 
It's true that many B-sides are good, often better than the A-sides, in my opinion.
