Since there’s already a thread like this for Paul, I figured I’d make a similar one for John. Hey, it’s only fair that they each get one, right? 
Anyways, here’s what I’d go with for my top 20 songs that were mainly written and/or sung by John (once again, these aren’t in any particular order and can change at any time):
2. Revolution
3. This Boy
8. You’re Going To Lose That Girl
10. Yes It Is
11. In My Life
12. Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite
13. If I Fell
14. I’m So Tired
15. Come Together
17. Hey Bulldog
18. I Feel Fine
19. One After 909
20. Glass Onion

The following people thank georgiewood for this post:
Ahhh Girl, Necko, BeatlebugI 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'.

He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

He goes missing during the middle section of the album tracklist, which is a minor nitpick, but he nonetheless has a strong overall presence at the beginning and ending sections. He has about the same number of songs as Paul, I think, which is nice.

- Nobody Told Me
- Mind Games
- Intuition
- Out The Blue
- Woman
- Watching The Wheels

What a remarkable set of songs. Any artist would love to have these in their catalogue. John has them, as well as everything with The Beatles.
