Subject: The Beatles From: 53 Date: 24 Jun 02 - 03:15 PM What was your favorite song of the Beatles. This should be a easy one. I'm Looking through you, was mine. Bob |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: alanabit Date: 24 Jun 02 - 03:18 PM How long have you got? Of the lesser known songs, I like "Two of Us", which opens "Let It Be". |

Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST Date: 24 Jun 02 - 03:21 PM So many, but "I'll be back" is top (for today, at least) |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Bullfrog Jones Date: 24 Jun 02 - 03:28 PM Not at all easy, Bob. In fact it's making my head hurt trying to decide, so I've given up! BJ |

Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST Date: 24 Jun 02 - 05:51 PM Sorry Mrs Lemon, that isn't a Beatles song... I know that it's in the 'Beatles Complete' chord book, but... |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: DancingMom Date: 24 Jun 02 - 06:21 PM Let it Be. Norgwegian Wood. The Inner Light. My Sweet Lord. Sorry. Can't narrow it down to one. Sharon

Subject: RE: The Beatles From: the lemonade lady Date: 24 Jun 02 - 06:22 PM Sorry, my daughter tells me she knows more about the Beatles than I do and 'I was there!' She says it's by Mr. and Mrs McCartney. Please forgive me. Anyway I still like it. So 'The Beatles Complete' book was compiled by a fan - hmmm. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST Date: 24 Jun 02 - 06:42 PM 'The Beatles Complete' book was compiled by an idiot. Nearly all of the songs have been put into different keys, in many cases much harder to play than the original. no idea what that is about... |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: katlaughing Date: 24 Jun 02 - 06:56 PM I guess Imagine doesn't count since it was Lennon's? Or am I mis-remembering? Another one...Julia...just beautiful. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Mooh Date: 24 Jun 02 - 07:50 PM Back In The USSR. Come Together. Penny Lane. Mooh. |

Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,ozmacca Date: 24 Jun 02 - 09:13 PM Paperback Writer....... Nowhere man......... Eleanor Rigby (now there's a song with all the essential "folk" type images in it).... |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,Pean O'Graffey Date: 24 Jun 02 - 09:30 PM Across The Universe, Dear Prudence, And Your Bird Can Sing, Mister Postman (not technically a Beatles song, but there's is the definitive version, is it not?) So on and so forth. Could go on and on. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: 53 Date: 24 Jun 02 - 10:52 PM Great Songs. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Jim Krause Date: 24 Jun 02 - 11:07 PM |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Nigel Parsons Date: 25 Jun 02 - 05:41 AM The answer to this would change with my mood, but most of the time I would choose "If I Fell in love with you" |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST Date: 25 Jun 02 - 05:50 AM The Inner Light We miss you, George |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Trevor Date: 25 Jun 02 - 06:07 AM Straw poll in the office - Norwegian Wood You've Got To Hide Your Love Away Paperback Writer I Will (me) Lucy In The Sky Here, There and Everywhere (also me) "That one that goes laa, la la la laa"!

Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,Ian Date: 25 Jun 02 - 08:23 AM A more interesting question might be, what is your least favourite Beatles song? I guess that most people would go for Revolution #9 (I quite like it myself). Apart from that? Difficult! Maybe Dizzy Miss Lizzy Ian |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: JedMarum Date: 25 Jun 02 - 08:29 AM In My Life |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: JedMarum Date: 25 Jun 02 - 08:30 AM I still sing In My Life, and audiences still love it. Song just doesn't seem to wear out! |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Snuffy Date: 25 Jun 02 - 09:08 AM As nobody else has mentioned Yesterday, then I won't either. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Peter T. Date: 25 Jun 02 - 09:41 AM Yeah, why is The Beatles Complete so weird? drove me crazy until I got the transcription book. yours, Peter T. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: alanabit Date: 25 Jun 02 - 10:06 AM Dizzy Miss Lizzy was by Larry Williams and Kansas City is a Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller song. Mind you, they are both great versions. I also love the punchy version of "Please Mr.Postman" and "You Really Got A Hold On Me" -was that a Smokey Robinson song? |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Peter T. Date: 25 Jun 02 - 10:12 AM Current fave: "Soldier of Love", the great Arthur Alexander song -- Lennon does a great job of it, the troops in Hamburg must have eaten it up. yours, Peter T. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,Mike Strobel Date: 25 Jun 02 - 10:15 AM I guess my vote goes: Across the universe , Two of us and Taxman |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: 53 Date: 25 Jun 02 - 10:47 AM I'll be Back is a good song also |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Trapper Date: 25 Jun 02 - 12:31 PM I'm with Jed - IN MY LIFE. - Al |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Kim C Date: 25 Jun 02 - 12:39 PM It was listening to the Beatles that I learned how to sing harmony. Specifically, "If I Fell." The bottom part was WAY too low for me at 14 but I picked it out anyway. I know they didn't write this one, but I always loved their recording of "Till There Was You." |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Rex Date: 25 Jun 02 - 12:52 PM Within You Without You |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Lonesome EJ Date: 25 Jun 02 - 12:53 PM I want to hear you play that one on the sitar, Cowboy. |

Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,Billy Boy Date: 25 Jun 02 - 02:54 PM Tomorrow Never Knows Thank You Girl Hey Jude |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Deda Date: 25 Jun 02 - 03:10 PM In 1968 (?I think it was) I used to walk around London with my then-boyfriend and we'd sing "You won't see me" in harmony. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: 53 Date: 25 Jun 02 - 03:35 PM Till there was you is a great song. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Lonesome EJ Date: 25 Jun 02 - 03:38 PM That was from a broadway musical, 53. Can't remember which one. |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,KB Date: 25 Jun 02 - 03:41 PM LEJ, Meredith Wilson's 'The Music Man' (1957) The Beatles got their version from Peggy Lee's 1958 version. Jeez, if only I knew this much about something useful... KB |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: Lonesome EJ Date: 25 Jun 02 - 03:47 PM Thanks KB. I'll never forget McCartney singing "I never sore them winging, no I never sore them at all til there was you." |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: GUEST,Slickerbill Date: 25 Jun 02 - 06:10 PM Best: Golden Slumbers, Come together, Blackbird, Hey Jude, Something, two of Us...ach I better quit... Worst: Most of the stupid stuff, like Octopus' Garden, O Bloody Di O Bloody Da,... Actually, with the very notable exception of With A Little Help, most of the tunes they let Ringo sing I thought sucked crap. sb |
Subject: RE: The Beatles From: van lingle Date: 25 Jun 02 - 06:11 PM It's kind of schmaltsy and from their head- shaking "whoooo" days but I still love hearing P.S I Love You. Eric Schoenberg did a beautiful solo guitar version of I'll Get You which was a tune I was never really crazy about until I heard him do it. vl |
