I suppose I’ll have to take my chances with asking Joe. Oh, um, Joe, I was just wondering… (I’m just joking with ya.)

I verified!

@Ahhh Girl I gave everything a solid 3/10 apart from the masterpieces Love Me Do , Honey Don’t and Flying , which got the full 10/10.

The poll will have closed a few minutes ago this time next week.

If you want to take part, time is running out.

No late entries will be accepted.

We thank the 30+ members who have taken part, and hope more will join in.

SEVEN DAYS LEFT, BEATLE PEOPLE! PLEASE VOTE!

“And now, the end is near
And so we face the final curtain…”

Not quite yet, folks, but just five more days to go.

We’d like as many as possible.

Will this be the second poll @C.R.A. regrets not taking part in?

Just over 50 hours left to vote, folks.

@mi1168 and @Hazy, your votes have not yet been verified. They will not count unless verified.

For anybody who votes in these last couple of days, do not wait for a verification PM from myself or Annadog40.

To verify it was who voted, either send myself or AD40 a PM when you have submitted your vote, or – as C.R.A. did above – you can post in this thread that you have voted.

We are grateful to the many of you who have taken part, and let’s hope for a few more.

JUST OVER 50 HOURS LEFT! PLEASE VOTE!

Come on, everybody! Let’s make this as fair a representation as possible. The idea of rating 220 songs sounds daunting, but it really doesn’t take more than 10 minutes, especially if you go by your instincts.

I cannot be precise at this time, @Necko, as not all votes are verified yet. However, I am prepared to say it is about forty. I cannot express how pleased I am with that. There has been huge participation from all the regulars, and there have even been new members whose first act has been to vote, so we also have grown those signed up to the forum to some degree. I think we should all be proud of ourselves.

EDIT: That is not to say we’ve given up on getting more. 35-ish hours to go. To check on how to verify as time run out, read post 187.

I think it’s just RN and AD40 we should be proud of.  Without all the hard work to create the poll, and then the continual friendly reminders, we wouldn’t have anything.apple01apple01

I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.

I thank you for that, @georgiewood, as @Starr Shine? would. However, if we’d set up a poll and nobody had joined in, it wouldn’t be much of a poll. So our thanks go to all those who have chosen to take part, hoping we made it easy, and without whom…

Just under 24 hours left, folks!

No late votes will be accepted. No late verifications. (You can verify by sending either me or Annadog40 a PM after voting, or posting here that you have voted.)

The deadline is firm because we do not want to be late with the results.

As it stands at this time tomorrow, they will be the results.

If you haven’t voted, and you want your voice to be heard in the poll, time is running out.

THE LAST 24 HOURS! PLEASE VOTE!

And so the poll has closed…

And I have spent the past few hours starting to go through the results. They are complicated. There are many more joint places than expected. The results were always going to dictate how the results are posted. I need a couple of days to look at it, and to discuss it with AD40. Staying with a post every three days to allow time for discussion, I think this may come quicker than expected.

For those who are interested, the total number of votes counted 39. What is at #1 was only decided by the last three votes.

Do you mean 39 voters?

I’d have thought many many more……. Still perhaps it’s about quality. Regulars on here certainly know their canons.

Thanks for all the work you two.

I am very happy with 39 voters, @Wigwam.

That is about, roughly, two thirds of the regulars, some more irregulars, and some new Beatle People. I’m happy with that.

I can’t wait to see if “You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)” is the top Beatles song.
