..woops that's six already and there are more just as good.

I'm finding that these songs (which were the soundtrack of my teens/young adult years) were so firmly woven into the fabric of my life in those days - places, people, relationships, feelings - that it's really hard to separate out the actual songs from the way they just seem now to represent and embody certain moments and situations for me. I know this can be true of many songs, but I think Beatles songs do it more than most, perhaps because each one is so distinctive.
