A literal NorwegianDood. Nice to meet you! But I have to disagree with you on Baby You're a Rich Man. It's no SFF, but it's still one of my favorites.

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

*reads*

M-hmm, m-hmm, m-hmm, snort!

*gets to Revolver *

WHAT?

*starts singing “She Said She Said ” just to be a pill*

If I seem to act unkind, it's only me, it's not my mind that is confusing things.

Yeah, I know – three of his least favourites are my MOST favourites!

But welcome to the forum all the same, NorwegianDood! (cool name)

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

So, we’re really doing favorites/least favorites, right? As opposed to what we think it the best/worst? Idk, there’s a difference to me. And as hard as this will be, I will limit myself to only ONE favorite per album!

Please Please Me
🙂 Misery
🙁 Boys

With the Beatles
🙂 Please, Mr. Postman (even though it’s not technically a Beatles song)
🙁 Roll over, Beethoven

A Hard Day’s Night
🙂 Things We Said Today
🙁 Tell me why (Once the song gets going, I like a lot more. The intro just kinda sounds unlike them somehow.)

Beatles For Sale
🙂 Every little thing
🙁 Honey, don’t

Help !
🙂 The night before
🙁 Dizzy Miss Lizzy (The intro always scares the crap outta me because it’s way too intense.)

Rubber Soul
🙂 Run For Your Life (Keep the hatin’ to a minimum, people.)
🙁 What goes on

Revolver
🙂 Tomorrow Never Knows
🙁 Yellow submarine

Sgt. Pepper
🙂 Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
🙁 When I’m 64 (It makes me think about getting old!)

Magical Mystery Tour
🙂 Blue Jay Way
🙁 Hello, Goodbye (I just think this is the weakest song on the album. Totally love the fun ending part, though. It always makes me smile!)

White Album
🙂 Dear Prudence (Disc 1) / Helter Skelter (Disc 2)
🙁 Piggies — cringe (Disc 1) / Good night (Disc 2)

Yellow Submarine (Not counting George Martin’s stuff or repeated tracks … which doesn’t leave much)
🙂 It’s all too much (Again with the making-me-smile thing.)
🙁 All together now (The speed progression stresses me out! Haha)

Let it be
🙂 I’ve got a feeling
🙁 The Long And Winding Road (Same thing as When I’m 64 and Good Night — it just makes me think of endings.)

Abbey Road
🙂 You Never Give Me Your Money (If the medley doesn’t count.)
🙁 Octopus’s garden

Fine print: Please remember that these are only my opinions. All current opinions are subject to change. Don’t hate me for having something against Ringo’s singing (exception: With A Little Help From My Friends ). I love every Beatle and every Beatles song to the core; some of the tunes just aren’t my taste. And some of these were re-he-he-heally hard to nail down to favorites!

Favorite Starbucks drink: Chai, baby, Chai.

Please Please Me

Yay: I Saw Her Standing There – I wonder what it was like to hear that in 1963? It must have sounded so new and fresh.

Nay: Baby It’s You

 

With The Beatles

Yay: It Won’t Be Long

NAY: Little Child

 

A Hard Day’s Night

YAY: You Can’t Do That – It’s like heavy metal from 1964

NAY: When I Get Home – The worst Lennon/McCartney song IMO on ANY album

 

Beatles For Sale

YAY: No Reply

NAY: Mr. Moonlight – Terribly dated, even for the time it was recorded

 

Help !

YAY: Help !

NAY: Dizzy Miss Lizzy – Boring, doesn’t bring it like earlier album closers

 

Rubber Soul

YAY: Tough to pick a favorite

NAY: What Goes On – Sorry Ringo

 

Revolver

YAY: Tomorrow Never Knows

NAY: Love You Too – Only hints at the great Indian-inspired songs to come

 

Sgt. Pepper ‘s Lonely Hearts Club Band

YAY: A Day In The Life – Epic

NAY: When I’m Sixty Four – not that it’s bad, just the weakest on the album

 

Magical Mystery Tour

YAY: Strawberry Fields Forever – Could be my favorite song of all time

NAY: Baby, You’re a Rich Man – poorly recorded to my ears, very thin sounding

 

The White Album

YAY: Helter Skelter – Crank it up!

NAY: Honey Pie – makes me vomit a bit in my mouth every time I hear it

 

Abbey Road

YAY: Everything!

NAY: It’s all good

 

Let It Be

YAY: I’ve Got a Feeling – drenched with atomosphere

NAY: For You Blue – it’s a nice diddy, but I can’t understand why they rejected All Things Must Pass instead of this!

 

Yellow Submarine

YAY: Hey Bulldog

NAY: Only A Northen Song – kind of boring

I like Penny Lane 's distinctions between songs. Very diplomatic of her! 🙂

 1.) Welcome to the forum.

2.) How can you praise the one song and damn the other one – which sounds almost excactly like the first one?! I like both very much and always get confused when trying to hum them. Same groove, same attitude, very similar arrangement.

 

Magical Mystery Tour

YAY: Strawberry Fields Forever – Could be my favorite song of all time

NAY: Baby, You’re a Rich Man – poorly recorded to my ears, very thin sounding

 

Nope, sorry, if that sounds thin to you something’s wrong with your audio system…

 

The White Album

YAY: Helter Skelter – Crank it up!

NAY: Honey Pie – makes me vomit a bit in my mouth every time I hear it

 

That’s too bad, it’s such a sweet hommage song!


I agree with most of your other comments.apple01

 OK, let's try.

 

Please, please me:

There's a place – Baby, it's you

 

With the Beatles

Please Mr. Postman – Don't bother me

 

A hard day's night

Tough. I'll be back or You can't do that – Can't buy me love (just too overplayed)

 

Beatles For Sale

No reply – Baby's in black

 

Help !

Ticket To Ride or You've got to hide your love away – You Like Me Too Much (one of their weakest ever) or Act naturally

 

Rubber Soul

The word – You won't see me (maybe if it wasn't right behind Nowhere Man it wouldn't sound as repetitive).

 

Revolver

Tomorrow Never Knows I Want To Tell You (another weak Beatles song)

 

Sgt. Pepper 's

the best is ADITL, but my favourite is probably Fixing A Hole Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds (not bad, just overplayed)

 

White Album

Dear Prudence or Mother nature's son or Helter Skelter or Everybody'S got something to hide or… – Revolution 9 (That was easy)

 

Magical Mystery Tour

Tough. Many great songs with no special favourite. – Flying

 

Abbey Road

I want you (She's so heavy) and the Golden Slumbers etc. Medley – Oh Darling! (gets a bit annoying)

 

Let it be

I've got a feeling – Let it be, since the single version is better (not counting the session bits)

The song Help or You Like Me Too Much off of Help ? I'd have to agree with that one, it's one of my absolute least favorites. I like how Please Mister Postman is getting some love, that song is awesome.

I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine

I must say, I am pro-Run For Your Life and pro-Fixing A Hole . I do love those songs but most of you seem to feel otherwise. 😛 I just don’t get it, that’s all.

Run For Your Life , Don't like a song that Talks of KILLING someone else.

Whereas no one objects to arson (Norwegian Wood ) or theft (She Came In…). And for the last time, it is a dramatic monologue.

The software knows what I mean.

I told her I didn’t

Find me a quote from Lennon calling it that, and I won't object
