Here's a question for you:
if you could choose 1 song from each album to create a compilation CD of their best, most innovative,or personal favourite works, what songs would you put on it?

I think for me it'd be most of my favourite songs, or I suppose the ones I think deserve to be heard by everyone.
But man, it's tough to choose, beware before you begin!

* Only one song from each album, remember!
** I think I'd allow 2 from the White Album though, since it is a double LP

Please Please Me

Money (That's What I Want)

And I Love Her

No Reply

You've Got to Hide Your Love Away

Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)
(This song cannot be ignored in my eyes- it's an absolute haunting, beautifully written, sarcastic, genius piece. Enough praise, eh?)

Tomorrow Never Knows / She Said She Said
(I couldn't decide!)

A Day in the Life / She's Leaving Home
(Couldn't decide again, A Day in the Life is a masterpiece, and I just love She's Leaving Home.)

The Fool on the Hill

Happiness is a Warm Gun & Mother Nature's Son

All Together Now

Golden Slumbers / Carry that Weight / The End medley

Across the Universe

-Phew- That was difffffffficult. Give it a try? I went in order of album release.

Tongue, lose thy light. Moon, take thy flight… see ya, George!

My current favorites, sorted by album alphabetically:

I want you
What you're doing
If I fell
I've just seen a face
Two of us
I am the walrus
Twist and Shout
I'm only sleeping
I'm looking through you
A day in the life
Dear Prudence
Please Mister Postman
We can work it out
Only a northern song

Ad hoc, ad loc, and quid pro quo! So little time! So much to know!

Hm, a challenging one. I appreciate some songs for their importance and innovation, but such songs are not always my favorites on a given album.

I also included one song from each of the Past Masters albums. Just because nobody said I couldn't. Wink

Let It Be

That was incredible tough. I had to leave away so many classics Yell Cry Embarassed Surprised Smile

And in some cases I decided against my favourite songs, just because I thought, the people should hear the all-time classics. I would have loved to chose Baby's in Black and You Cant Do That.

Anyway: We miss the great Singles!

Just realized that every song on there is by the late great George Harrison (Despite what people think, I think Something To Hide was written by Lennon and Harrison)

Well, Wikipedia (Ya, I know) stats that it is a Lennon composition (credited to Lennon/McCartney). Doesn't really seems like a Harrison tune, it simply doesn't.

When I Twish And Shout, it makes the Girl say "What Goes On?", and than I say, "I do this Here, There and Everywhere", and than she finishes by saying "Honey Don't".

I'm not sure about an all-Ringo cd, that means you would probably have to put If You've Got Trouble on there. There should be a frowning George Martin face. george-martin
