PS I Love You . A very nice Paul vocal, with cute lyrics. Love Me Do doesn’t have quite the same chemistry and the lyrics are pretty boring.George songs on Abbey Road : Here Comes The Sun or Something ?
So hard to choose among the two probable AR highlights, but “Sun” has a universality that goes beyond mere love song.
WCWIO: “Try to see it my way…” or “Life is very short…”
GEORGE: In fact, The Detroit Sound. JOHN: In fact, yes. GEORGE: In fact, yeah. Tamla-Motown artists are our favorites. The Miracles. JOHN: We like Marvin Gaye. GEORGE: The Impressions PAUL & GEORGE: Mary Wells. GEORGE: The Exciters. RINGO: Chuck Jackson. JOHN: To name but eighty.

Life is very short… it’s got a better chord progression imo, and there’s some classic Beatles harmonies too.

Offline What Goes On ? not just because it’s the better song but also because Ringo played a bigger role in the song.
If you're reading this, you are looking for something to do.

Offline I will have to go for “A Hard Day’s Night “, but only by a slight sliver. Perhaps this is because I have happy memories relating to this song, involving sort-of annoying my old man. To this day, he cringes pretty bad whenever he hears this song.
Beatles campfire song: “I Saw Her Standing There ” or “Get Back “

Offline Disc 2 would be my pick. In my opinion, the Fab Four’s singles got better over time, and they showed more variety compared to the first half. Singles like “We Can Work It Out ” b/w “Day Tripper and “Paperback Writer ” b/w “Rain ” are just a small part of their later discography. That’s not to say that Side One is worse, but Side Two is better because it showcases more variety and each Beatle’s showmanship more effectively.
Battle of the Singles (continued): “Long Tall Sally ” b/w “I Call Your Name ” or “The Ballad Of John And Yoko ” b/w “Old Brown Shoe “

Offline I have no idea where Long Tall Sally /I Call Your Name was released as a single, so I’ll have to choose The Ballad Of John And Yoko /Old Brown Shoe even though it’s probably my least favourite UK single coupling.
John’s Rickenbacker 325 or Paul’s Hofner bass?

John’s Rickenbacker 325 or Paul’s Hofner bass?
It was actually first released in Germany and Denmark in the year 1964, and then Japan in the year 1965 (according to discogs.com). Thought it was interesting since it wasn’t a UK or US single.
I would have to go for Paul’s Hofner “violin” bass guitar. This is simply out of pure bias, and that I aspire to be a rock and jazz bassist one day, though not as a professional career but rather as a hobby.
Battle of Singles (continued, for the third time): “Eleanor Rigby ” b/w “Yellow Submarine ” or “Hello, Goodbye ” b/w “I Am The Walrus ”

Offline Both singles have the silly/serious matchups, but only one has a John/Paul pairing; which makes it the more desirable.
Red Album (1962-1966) or blue (1967-1970)?

Offline ooooooohhhhhhh that’s tough but I have to go with Rain . The backwards guitar and the bass and that vocal are just too good.
Singles: Day Tripper /We Can Work It Out or Paperback Writer /Rain ?
Love one another.

Offline I will have to go for “Hey Jude “. Both songs are Paul at his most kind and moving, and both are staples in both Paul and the Beatles discography. However, I prefer “Hey Jude ” because I think it works better than “Let It Be ” in a live performance. That and the ‘na-na-na’ sequence is just too catchy, albeit my only complain is that keeping it at 3.5 minutes long is a tad bit too long for me.
John Lennon dismissal quotes (continued):
1) “Run For Your Life ” – “…my least favorite Beatles songs”, “…just a sort of throwaway song of mine that I never thought much of.”
2) “Across The Universe ” , “Let It Be ” release – “… I thought Paul subconsciously tried to destroy my great songs.”

The first one. Completely okay to honestly criticise his own song, but the quote about Paul seems a bit unfriendly to me.
Macca barking on Hey Bulldog or Ringo screaming about blisters on Helter Skelter ?

Offline Barking ‘Bulldog’. Ringo’s yell is a perfect closer to ‘Helter Skelter ‘ (the mono suffers due to the omission) but the barking makes ‘Bulldog’ so much more fun a listen than it would have been otherwise.

Offline I will have to go for Julian. Not many people have the claim to fame that Paul McCartney wrote a seven-minute chart topper about himself. I also feel quite sorry for him having to go through quite a bit of the situation having his parents ending in a bitter divorce. Sean’s not too bad either, I especially like him posing in a similar fashion John did himself in the promotional picture for “Double Fantasy “.
