9. Yellow Submarine – I hope @Jules isn’t disappointed since it doesn’t rank that high, but yeah, I don’t understand why it is last for so many people.

Clearly you haven’t read my ranking.

You’re a great poster, MMD! I hope you posted more often. You can come to All Together Now whenever you want and talk music & other stuff if you like.

  

Now I have. Way too low…

 

Thanks, but it’s always a bit exhausting to write longer texts in english. Plus there are just some phases where my Beatles passion cools down a bit.

 

I’d like to rank all the albums at one point. Problem is, with the long pauses those rankings change. I think I did the White Album in 2017 and would rank it differently now.

Hey Monk M.D., I had no idea that English wasn’t your first language. I assume you attended a good school system as you got skills. I’m working on a long story for the Happenings thread, but after that I’m going to attempt my very first album ranking in 5 years. I know what’s going to happen though. Growing up with these songs they all feel like old friends. I feel like I’m being disloyal when I place one over the other. a-hard-days-night-ringo-14. I think I was telling Jules, I didn’t even switch the channel from a Beatles song on the radio (no matter what it was) until the mid-70s.

  1. Taxman George Harrison ‘s best song on the album, though I’m not sure how much of that can be attributed to Paul McCartney ‘s bass (stolen by the time-travelling McCartney from Start by The Jam) and ferocious guitar solo at the end. It was recorded around the same time as The Kinks’ Sunny Afternoon, so one can assume George and Ray Davies discussed their pay-slips one evening during the spring of 1966. 9/10
  2. Eleanor Rigby – The older I get, the more I love this song. In a complete contrast to Harrison’s ‘woe is me’, poor-rich man complaint, McCartney broadcasts the plight of two lonely people who inevitably come together at the end when it’s far too late. Even the instrumentation gives the song a sense of abandonment and abjection. 10/10
  3. I’m Only Sleeping – Is Revolver the last album where the band truly worked together as a quartet? I’m Only Sleeping couldn’t have been written by anyone except John Lennon (even his vocals are lethargic) but (like Taxman ) it wouldn’t be half-as-good without that game-changing (backwards) guitar solo – this time from Harrison. McCartney’s harmony during the bridge sections are brilliant too. 10/10
  4. Love You To – I can take or leave Harrison’s Indian obsession. On any other album songs like this would jar, but in the spirt of the decade Love You To feels no less out of place on a ‘psychedelic’ album than Yellow Submarine . They’re just at opposite ends of the same circle. 7/10
  5. Here, There And Everywhere – I’ve always thought this would be so much better if the production wasn’t so lacking in energy. The music just lacks any power, although it’s no doubt done deliberately to mirror the song’s theme etc. Supposedly inspired by Pet Sounds, the dates don’t add up. 7/10
  6. Yellow Submarine – The great thing about Revolver is that, even if you didn’t like the direction The Beatles were apparently taking with songs like Tomorrow Never Knows or Love You To , the whole family could still enjoy sing-a-longs to things like Yellow Submarine . It suits Ringo Starr ‘s ‘friendly Uncle’ persona perfectly, and the song is made infinitely better thanks to the contributions from his bandmates, particularly Lennon’s Goon-like backing vocals during the last verse. 8/10
  7. She Said She Said – Inspired by a comment made by Pete Fonda (imagine if John had been talking to Jane instead, we could’ve had a song about knowing what it’s like to do an aerobic work-out!) this is startlingly effective song, despite it’s apparent simplicity. Starr’s drumming is superb on this. I’ve also just decided the titular character of this song and the lyrics are about Julia Lennon. 9/10
  8. Good Day Sunshine – The Beatles were like sponges when it came to soaking up influences. This time, McCartney was inspired to write this ode to the summer by The Lovin’ Spoonful. It should be brilliant but instead it limps along with a kind of forced optimism. 7/10
  9. And Your Bird Can Sing – Again, this is another example of the band working together to produce something remarkable. The highlight of this song is the twin guitar playing of Harrison and McCartney, and this song has the energy and enthusiasm that Good Day Sunshine lacks. The version on Anthology 2 is great too. 9/10
  10. For No One – Suffers in the public eye perhaps, for not being Eleanor Rigby , this is one of McCartney’s understated gems. 9/10
  11. Doctor Robert – Nobody will ever pick Doctor Robert as their favourite song on Revolver because it isn’t very good. It’s the weakest track on the album and there’s a sense that Lennon was phoning it in by this point. 6/10
  12. I Want To Tell You –The most forgettable of Harrison’s contributions to Revolver , although it’s still better than the worst offering of Lennon and McCartney. That said, the line ‘I’ll make you maybe next time around’ sounds as though he was filling singing words to fill the necessary number of syllables; it doesn’t make any sense. 7/10
  13. Got To Get You Into My Life – The second song to be recorded for the album, McCartney’s ‘ode to pot’ is a tight, Stax/Motown influenced number that occasionally feels a little bogged down under the brass heavy mix. 7/10
  14. Tomorrow Never Knows – Written in 1956 by Lennon when he’d only learnt the one guitar chord, it’s impossible not to imagine George Martin’s slightly confused reaction when this was presented to him in the studio ten years later. Again, the other Beatles (particularly McCartney and Starr) deserve credit for the song’s brilliance, along with its composer. Sheryl Crow nearly covered it thirty years later. 10/10

Average rating – 8.2/10

Nice overview there, Tony. apple01

One correction: Both Paul AND The Jam, in fact, time-traveled to 1982 to steal the “Taxman ” bass line from The Bangles:

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

1. Rigby

2. Taxman

3. Tomorrow

4. Sunshine

5. Sleeping

6. No One

7. She Said

8. Tell You

9. Here There

10. Bird 

11. Got To

12. Love You 

13. Dr. Rob

14. Yellow Sub.

 

P.S Coming back to this after a nights sleep I like it as a running order as well. That was unintentional. My favourite album of theirs by a smidge in a photo with Rubber Soul . Remember George saying he thought of those two as like a double album as they were recorded close together or more so with limited intervening interruptions maybe.

Unless Paul McCartney knocks on my door I am unlikely to be impressed.

Ok, my last ranking I made changed like hell. Here’s the updated version.

1. Here, There, And Everywhere: Good song. One of my favourites.

2. Love You To : This song deserves much more respect than it gets.

3. Eleanor Rigby : Pretty song.

4. Tomorrow Never Knows : When I first heard this, I was like: “Oh my god, what is this?!”

5. She Said She Said : I forget why I put it at the bottom of the list last time I ranked this album. Probably to see what hateful things were to be said about me for doing so.

6. Got To Get You Into My Life : This is a good song. This is a very good song.

7. For No One : Very pretty, just too short.

8. And Your Bird Can Sing : I love it, but, like For No One , it’s too short.

9. Doctor Robert : Underrated. That’s all I need to say.

10. Taxman : I used to love it more, but I must have heard it TOO much. It’s still great!

11. I Want To Tell You : Same issue I have with Taxman . I still love it, though.

12. I’m Only Sleeping : It’s not bad, it’s just not one of my favourites.

13. Yellow Submarine : One of those songs you like when you’re just getting into the Beatles. Overtime you become more aware of the other greatness on Revolver .

14. Good Day Sunshine : I don’t love it, but I like it. It’s a bit too cheesy.

 

And there we go.

I’m currently procrastinating an essay while listening to Revolver , so what better way to combine the two than rank the songs?

Some general thoughts – I know this isn’t exactly an original conclusion, but what a great album! It’s never been my favourite Beatles album exactly, but each time I revisit it I’m blown away by the quality of the writing and the sheer variety of the sounds on this thing. It’s astonishing how quickly their music was developing, I bet the extended studio stay played a big role in that. 

14. Good Day Sunshine – There are some things I like about this song, especially the piano solo, but I just find the chorus to be very cloying and unimaginative.

13. Yellow Submarine – A very well constructed piece of music, I love the sound effects and the fun atmosphere, but I can’t say I choose to listen to it very often.

12. I Want To Tell You – Cool guitar riff and instrumental, George was very good at coming up with memorable yet slightly unsettling melodies. Again, can’t say I listen to it very often.

11. Doctor Robert – This song gets a lot better when you know the context. Listening to it now I feel like I’ve really slept on it, I really love how it transitions from the rockier verses to the more psychedelic ‘well, well, well’ sections. Thematically, there are a lot of similarities with the Velvet Underground’s I’m Waiting for the Man, which would’ve been written around the same period.

10. Taxman – Great song, great groove, fiery guitar solo. The lyrics are funny and well written, but they’ve always bugged me given the disconnect between their sentiment and George’s burgeoning interest in Indian spirituality. 

9. Love You To – A really cool excursion into raga rock, it’s cool to see how far George’s sitar playing improved in such a short amount of time. I also really appreciate that it takes a little while to get into the main riff, it really increases its impact. Cool harmonies too.

8. Got To Get You Into My Life – So much energy! I love the Motown vibe on this one. 

7. And Your Bird Can Sing – Truly pioneering harmony guitar work here, it must have been very influential on bands like the Eagles. 

6. For No One – So melancholy, and the arrangements are gorgeous especially the solo. 

5. Eleanor Rigby – This is an absolutely perfect song, musically and lyrically, one of Paul’s masterpieces. It’s a little too cold and stark to be a personal favourite, though. 

4. She Said, She Said – Psychedelic awesomeness, great guitar and drumming. 

3. Here, There, and Everywhere – A truly sublime love song, I love the subtle key shifts and the way the melody gently drifts downwards and upwards especially on the lines “I want her everywhere”. 

2. I’m Only Sleeping – I believe this is the Beatles song I’ve listened to the most, ever. Dreamy, gorgeous psychedelic Lennon-goodness. 

1. Tomorrow Never Knows – A strong contender for the best Beatles song, IMO. It’s a perfect example of how to make an incredibly experimental song enjoyable to listen to.

I’m Only Sleeping – one of the best songs of all time. Can’t overstate how good John’s songs are in the Beatles, and this is THE high point from one of his strongest periods. 

Tomorrow Never Knows – similar to I’m Only Sleeping , its a stroke of genius, but the experiemental side of it isn’t quite as under control as it is in I’m Only Sleeping . Some people may prefer that, I have it second. 

Here There & Everywhere – a feat in pop songwriting, definitely one of the best songs ever written. The progression of the verses beginning with “here,” “there,” and “everywhere,” makes it one of, if not Paul’s best lyric. The vocals and production are flawless… this song is amazing. 

And Your Bird Can Sing – Paul’s high harmony is my favorite part, obviously I love the dueling guitars, especially during the instrumental break. This song is just so good, the lyrics go exactly where they need to, not worried about holding your hand and making their meaning obvious, the sarcasm comes through so well especially with how John sings the lead. 

She Said She Said – “I said no no no you’re wrong” Awesome song, everything is on point, especially the drums. Cool people who like good music LOVE this song. John could do no wrong on Revolver and every song he contributed was amazing. 

For No One – Paul came out with his big green lyric book a few years ago, and despite his lyrical ability often being overshadowed by his genius tunes and his jaw dropping talent and ability as a performer, songs like For No One , I’m Looking Through You , and later down the list Eleanor Rigby prove why hes worthy of a lyrical compendium. The maturity of these solemn songs blows me away.  Nobody measures up to Dylan as a lyricist, but Paul also contains multitudes. 

I Want To Tell You – arguably the best riff of George’s career. It creates an extremely psychedelic pattern while grooving incredibly hard. Love what this song is about too, and the production backs up every line. The harmonies create a sense of majesty about the things in his head, while the dissonant piano brings the tension of actually trying to express those things. Killer outro as well. 

Doctor Robert – I like the guitar fills on this song so much. The tone is searing, but not biting. It just washes over you right and carries into some of the best harmonies in the whole catalog. The final “Doctor Robert !” At the end makes for a great fakeout. What a fun touch to finish the song, nobody else does that kind of thing. The attention to detail is insane. 

Taxman Taxman is awesome, great bass, great solo, great lyrics, great groove… great song. 

Yellow Submarine – gotta give this song its due, it is very catchy while also being extremely psychedelic. Its Yellow Submarine by The Beatles, you can’t touch it. 

Eleanor Rigby – Ill put this here because while I prefer the instrumental of Love You To , these lyrics are so good. Glancing through the tracklist of Revolver most people see Yellow Submarine and Eleanor Rigby as the big songs from the album, and Eleanor Rigby absolutely deserves its place alongside Yesterday , Blackbird , Let It Be , and the other timeless, universal Beatles ballads. And Eleanor Rigby is the most sophisticated of them all, lyrically and musically. 

Love You To – from the beginning this is a different kind of song. George doesn’t quite have a handle on Indian classical composition at this point, but his riff making abilities as a rock guitarist shine through in this instrumental. It is a great song, I do prefer his other contributions to Revolver , and I like Within Without You more as well, but it is Revolver , every song is great and some have to rank lower on the list. 

Got To Get You Into My Life – This song is great, the vocal performance especially, and the guitar riff interlude is sweet, but the arrangement leaves a little to be desired. It isn’t necessary to compare it with the Earth Wind and Fire version, just compare it to the other songs on Revolver . I love this song though, Revolver once again, is a 10/10 album. 

Good Day Sunshine – less serious and mature than Eleanor Rigby or For No One , not as beautiful as Here There & Everywhere, not as much fun as Got To Get You Into My Life . This is a good song, it just falls short of the other Paul contributions on Revolver , and is missing some of the elements that make the songs at the top of this list so special.

Revolver is proabaly my favortie Beatles album, so here’s my ranking adn why

1. I’m Only Sleeping – I like the vibe of the song. When I hear the song it just sounds like that feeling of wanting to sleep and being tired. Also the animated music video is just SO GOOD

2. And Your Bird Can Sing – Very catchy. It would make a great opening song for a Move or show (If I remeber correctly it’s the theme song for some of the beatles cartoon)

3. For No One – Love that french horn. 

4. I Want To Tell You – George did a good job

5. Tomorrow Never Knows – Yes

6. She Said She Said – I like the vocal round/overlay (I think it’s called a round). The lyrics are fun too.

7. Here, There, and Everywhere – I don’t like most of the Beatles love songs BUT I make acceptions

8. Eleanor Rigby – I love songs that tell stories. I also love the orchestra parts.

9. Doctor Robert – Very catchy

10.  Got To Get You Into My Life or Good Day Sunshine – For some reason I mix these two up. Both are great though

11. Taxman – My family over played this, still I like it.

12. Yellow Submarine – A tad over rated. 

13. Love you too – It’s kinda akward to listen to with other peopel around. But I do like the opening and sitar.
