So guys, we all know the Beatles are the creators of modern music as we know it. . .

etc.

My favorite Beatles song definetly goes to "Here Comes the Sun", such a good one.

My favorite Beatle was either Lennon or Harrison, Harrison was the unsung hero of the Beatles, he wrote Here Comes the Sun, As My Guitar Gently Weeps, etc.

Favorite Album: Revolver

Favorite Song: lots to pick from...While My Guitar Gently Weeps stands out also Eleanor Rigby and Norwegian Wood(This Bird has Flown).

Favorite Beatle: Apu, the fifth Beatle...Actully the working class hero John Lennon (more into his solo stuff than the Beatles as a whole actually)

Eleanor Rigby, I think you confused the name. . . I think it is 'All the Lonely People'. . . good choice, I'm listening to it right now.

No it's Eleanor Rigby (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleanor_Rigby) but yes, a good choice.

[BTlaxripper]

I like "Live and let die" by the wings which derived from the bettles. Does that count?

If french fries count as vegetables. . . than yes, it counts.

[goalieskcickay]

I don't think so... if it does then "Rockestra Theme" is my favorite...

If it doesn't,
Song:"Eleanor Rigby"

Album: 1 (Ok, ok, Revolver)

Member: Ringo Starr (Not as good solo, but his personality I like, as well as his voice.)

umm I guess they count a delicious deep fat fried unhealthy vegetables but nonetheless vegetables. Can they be waffle fries? I heard they are better for you.

The you are probably the only other person along with myself who sings along to Octopus' Garden....

And if we're going the ketchup is a vegetable route, my favorite solo artist song (from the aforemention like of Lennon) is Instant Karma! (All Shine On).

Lennon's solo career would have owned everyone elses, IMO... :banghead: :guns:

But yeah, "Working Class Hero" is one of the loves of my life.

[BTlaxripper]

What about least favorite Beatles song?
I can't really think of one.


You guys should listen to 'Happiness Is a Warm Gun' -- the lyrics and vocals are really good, and I feel it is overlooked.

I cant stand hey jude. I had to sing it in 5th grade (short version obviously) and I have despised it ever sense

[goalieskcickay]

"Birthday"!!! Kidding, but my friends birthday was today, so at lunch we blasted it from a stereo, and sang along...

[mullengoal141]

album: white
song:Revolution(definitely the best song ever)
member: I'm going with ringo

[roycegracie47]

Actually the birthday song is the one I can think of that I don't really like.

[goalieskcickay]

I think it was meant as more of a joke, as its lyrics aren't exactly the deepest or most meaningful. Then again, Yellow Submarine's lyrics aren't either...

[Hunter]

My favorite beetles song is Yesterday, I started to really appreciate it after I learned to play it. Its one of my favorite acoustic songs.

[gaels_laxer_33]

man mine would have to be...urggg so many to choose from.....ill go with Elanor Rigby album- white album beatle- John and Paul

[H-townlaxer]

i am walurus

[moondog]

Favorite album--Revolver--the beginning of their experimental phase

Favorite song--I'm Only Sleeping and Fixing a Hole

Favorite Beatle--John

I like the "overlooked" songs, like "Your Mother Should Know" and "Dig A Pony" more than their standard classics. Since their albums are so amazing, they have several of these lost gems on every release.

Strawberry Fields should have been on Sgt Pepper
Come Together should have been on the White Album--Abbey Rd truly begins with "Something"
Across the Universe is an amazing song, and it should have been put on an album.
*I'm in no position to tell the Beatles how to structure their albums, but the more you listen to these songs and the albums, the more it makes sense...

Favorite song; Let It Be

Favorite Album; Abbey Road

Favorite Beatle; Lennon, cuz he is the only one who actually said something, or had an opinion about the world for that matter....

[goalieskcickay]

Why, becuase he wrote "Imagine"? Honestly, if you're going to slight three of the greatest men ever to roam this planet, back it up with something...

favorite Beatles song?
whats your favorite Beatles CD?
Who was your favorite Beatle?

Fave album: "Wonderwall Music." Ha, ha, JK.

I don't have a single Beatles CD. Zero. Zilch. Nada. I don't even have all their albums. I do have the Japanese pressings of "Revolver" and "Rubber Soul," and I suppose some people might have good reason to think those were their two best albums. I think there might some variation between the content of the Japanese pressings and that of the US pressings.

Actually, I'm partial to Apple's second-biggest selling group. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badfinger)

Fave song.... Hmm, no one in particular. Moondog mentioned "Across the Universe." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Across_the_Universe) I like that. Wikipedia says it was on "Let It Be." I guess I like the spacy ones - "Tomorrow Never Knows" and "I Am the Walrus," which is really a bizarre tune. I don't think the Beatles version of "Tomorrow Never Knows" was the best, nor was their version of "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" the best. How about "Teddy Boy?" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teddy_Boy_%28song%29) Anyone have that?

Fave Beatle: Yoko.

JK again. No favorite. Pete Best?

[denisonlax3]

Favorite song: Revolution, Hey Jude is definitly a close second

Album: Rubber Soul, its got nowhere man, norweigen wood, etc..all the great ones..

Lenon gets my vote for favorite beatle,hes got some good quotes

[Fartman]

Songs: A Day in the Life, Blackbird, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, With a Little Help From my Friends
Album: Abbey Road
Beatle: Too hard to choose...

[PearlJam9]

as far as favorite song i couldent tell you possibly mean Mister Mustard but thats not for sure...however i can tell you that i do not like paul. most of the songs he sings are either goofy or soft John has a much better voice and the song he sings are sooo much better then the ones paul sings (if you disagree you are wrong)

[RamLacrosse]

i think most of their songs sound the same

[BTlaxripper]

i think most of their songs sound the same

Yeah,
because Eleanor Rigby and Helter Skelter sound EXACTLY the same. :monkey:

[LaxCrazy17]

'Yellow Submarine'

[scruffy221]

"Eleanor Rigby"

and "Hey Jude"

People should watch the Paul McCartney- Live in Red Square DVD.
It's not all the Beetles but Beetle's music, and in Communist Russia. It's very good.

[BTlaxripper]

Are there two versions of "Revolution 1"?
I'm not talking about "Revolution 9". . .

The "Revolution 1" on The White Album is slow and relatively subdued, but I found this version on-line and it starts out with this really loud and fast electric guitar, and Paul (or John, don't know who is singing) just starts out with a screaming "yeaahhhhhh!!!". . . and the song ends in the electric guitar and the singer screaming "All Right! All Right!"

Anybody heard this, and know which CD it is on?

[killman3680]

'yellow submarie' all the way

[12345]

So hard to pick a favourite Beatles song, I'd mention a few of my favourites but I'd probably run off at the mouth and sound like a cult member, favourite album: Abbey Road, favourite member: John Lennon

[PearlJam9]

Oh and trust me im a huge beatles fan so im no trying to bash them but I HATE HEY JUDE and I think its way overrated and in general the whole let it be album is not up to par with their other stuf

[twin58]

Anybody heard this,

Ummm, once or twice.

and know which CD it is on?

CD? Puh-leeze. "The first version of 'Revolution' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolution_(The_Beatles)) to be released [was on] the B-side of the "Hey Jude" single, released in early September 1968."

Notes on "Revolution" and "Revolution 1" (http://www.icce.rug.nl/~soundscapes/DATABASES/AWP/r.html) says it was released in August 1968.

[LymanLax28]

Songs:
-Eleanor Rigby
-Helter Skelter
-Black Bird

Album:
White, but all of them are really good.

[standenup]

"Hey Jude"...hands down.
