Hope there's another thread like this.
My favorite would be probably Rain.

Sorry for the double post. Meant to say "hope there's NOT another thread like this."

Mine would probably be… Rain. Although I'm Down is my favourite when I need a laugh.

Rain (I'm beginning to see a trend here). Revolution is a close second.

Interesting…I was expecting people to say Revolution, but glad it's Rain. Such a great song (aren't they all?) and much better than the "rain rain go away, come again another day" (half) song.

Rain. And yes, I think there's a topic like this… but I don't remember…

Tricky because some B sides are really "double A" songs: Day Tripper, Strawberry Fields.
Revolution might have been one of those.
A real B side song was Yellow Submarine. Considering the impact of that song when it became a movie two years later, it would have to rank as an all time great B side regardless of its musical/lyrical merits. Right?

My first thought was, of course, "Rain." But then I thought of "Old Brown Shoe" and "We Can Work it Out" and "I'm Down." So now I'm undecided.
Nah, "Rain" pwns.

I believe that was the "B Sides Better than A Sides" topic, which is slightly different

Yellow Submarine/Eleanor Rigby was a double A side.
It's hard to say for me, Revolution is brilliant and Rain is really good too. I think Revolution shades it.
Edit: I always forget I Am The Walrus in these discussions. That's my favourite.

Beatles b-sides were never your average 'b-side' quality. How This Boy could only be a b-side is insane.
Anyway. Favourite. I'll go for Old Brown Shoe. Classic George. Out of the norm and vastly underrated.

Same here. Certainly I Am The Walrus.

That really is difficult isn't it -- naming a favourite B-side -- considering the quality of the material. Several years ago, I burned a CD consisting of just the B-sides of all their British singles (I counted "Day Tripper", "Yellow Submarine" and "Strawberry Fields" as B-sides, even though I believe they shared A-side status with their flipsides) -- and I thought to myself "man, if EMI released this, it would be a Number One seller -- what other artist could release an album of their B-sides and top the charts?").
Anyway, my favourite Beatle B-side is "Revolution" -- um.. or is it "I Am The Walrus"?…. or perhaps "Old Brown Shoe"… no….. "This Boy"… no, wait….

I like 'Old Brown Shoe' Thought that should have been the A side.

Let me think… I'm between This Boy, Yes It Is, Rain, I Am The Walrus, Revolution, Come Together and You Know My Name. 
It's true that many B-sides are good, often better than the A-sides, in my opinion.

This Boy or Rain I think.
EDIT: Ignore that, it's I'm Down all the way.
