Favorite Beatles song?

For No One and A Day in the Life

For No One and A Day in the Life

Either Eleanor Rigby or Help!

Too many great ones. Much easier to choose the worst among so few bad songs. I nominate "Mr. Moonlight".

Norwegian Wood (This Bird has Flown). The song has several interpretations.

Knowing She Would = Norwegian Wood. What John Lennon really meant. Just replace the words in the song and it makes a lot of sense. John didn't get any that night and was okay with that.

I once had a girl

Or should I say she once had me

She showed me her room

Isn't it good Knowing She Would?

She asked me to stay

And she told me to sit anywhere

So I looked around

And I noticed there wasn't a chair

I sat on the rug biding my time

Drinking her wine

We talked until two and then she said

"It's time for bed"

She told me she worked

In the morning and started to laugh

I told her I didn't

And crawled off to sleep in the bath

And when I awoke I was alone

This bird had flown

So I lit a fire

Isn't it good Knowing She Would?

I want you (she's so heavy)

BAND ON THE RUN

Beatles were before my time

Torn between "I want you (she's so heavy)" and "Here Comes the Sun." Funny that one comes after the other.

So great.

Elinor Rigby

It's really the only Beatles song I like, and I like it a lot

Then you should be able to spell it right

I always thought norwegian wood was about burning her house down?

You are totally clueless about that song. Read a biography of Lennon to learn the truth.

Not my fav but "While My Guitar..." has been stuck in my head for a couple of days now.

As far as a fav...perhaps the seemingly simplistic "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" from Meet the Beatles would be close to the top.

Wild Honey Pie

Happiness is a Warm Gun

"Here Comes the Sun", followed by "I Saw here Standing There"

Curious choices, given that I think John was the best song-writer....

I love While my Guitar Gently Weeps. My favorite is either that or Something.

Naming a favorite song? Oh, yeah!
