The Beatles Bible - Topic: Your Favorite Beatle, And Why http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/ Simple:Press Version 5.2.6 Ben Ramon on Your Favorite Beatle, And Why http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-7/#p61496 Yesterday... and today http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-7/#p61496 When I first got into the Beatles (I mean REALLY got into them), it was John who was the undisputed genius of the Beatles for me. I was fascinated by the sheer complexity of his character, his poetry, his wit. Then, as time wore on, I began to pay more attention to Paul's merits and contributions, finding myself staggered by his musical talent and productivity; and I've always liked his post-Beatles music the best by a long way, so I suppose I'd have to say Paul overall.

But nowadays, with my view having evened and mellowed out a bit, I find ...]]> Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:52:24 +0000 EDSLocklear on Your Favorite Beatle, And Why http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-7/#p61491 Yesterday... and today http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-7/#p61491 I have a hard time choosing, too, but Ringo is my favorite out of them all. I don't know why exactly. Call me what you will, but I think it's because we're similar (laid back, good sense of humor, not egotistic).

George came across in the anthology amazingly well, you could tell that he knew the music was great yet at the same time didnt try to over or under hype it, just give it respect whilst having a laugh and trying to enjoy himself. I actually surprise myself when i find i favour Paul the least yet know he is an absolute legend and is generally underrated in what he has achieved ...]]> Tue, 18 Dec 2012 00:45:32 +0000 Long John Silver on Your Favorite Beatle, And Why http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-7/#p61480 Yesterday... and today http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-7/#p61480 Definitely John. It's just hard to explain. I got into his solo music first, then into Beatles. He wrote so many amazing songs and along with Paul made a greatest music songwriter in history of music. Oh and his voice! :) . I think this interview sums up my view on Lennon:

But overall, my ranking would be Paul, closely followed by John, then Ringo, then George.

For me, Paul not only is overall the most talented and has the most diverse styles but I prefer his solo work overall to the rest. He also seems like, overall, a good person. Yes, he's cunning and ruthless and arrogant and patronising, a womanizer and unfaithful until he married Linda, but they all were. Furthermore, he was a true family man (like myself) and not many rock megastars would've adopted their new wife's daughter (Heather) ...]]> Mon, 17 Dec 2012 18:00:12 +0000 Linde on Your Favorite Beatle, And Why http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-6/#p61456 Yesterday... and today http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-6/#p61456 Just looking at the Beatles, not their solo careers, for me it's Ringo and George. Yep, equally.

I want to reply anyway.

George would have to be my favorite. I love his music and lyrics, and he was an amazing guitarist. George's solo career was probably the second most underrated of the four (come on, people, Ringo's isn't that bad!). I personally loved all of George's solo music (well, everything I've heard, anyway). George was known as the "quiet Beatle," and I think that's something that he and I have in common, being quiet and thoughtful. I love George's sense of humor, and out of the Fab Four his voice was ...]]> Mon, 17 Dec 2012 00:06:27 +0000 mithveaen on Your Favorite Beatle, And Why http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-6/#p38567 Yesterday... and today http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/yesterday-and-today/your-favorite-beatle-and-why/page-6/#p38567 mr.

I don't know why. I just am :^| I can't say that it's his looks. His moustache wasn't very attractive. Nor was his beard. I think that his music during the mid-sixties was really good. And I like some of his solo work, though, I don't know it all that well.

He doesn't beat the others by that much though!
