Favorite Beatles tune

What is your favorite song from the Beatles?

Mine would have to be
"Love me do" or...
"Helter Skelter"

Wow that's a tough question for me. I guess it would have to be "PS I Love You". Why? Not sure but I never get tired of hearing that song. Then again it may be because of the fact that I'm 53 and I still haven't nailed down the beat....as far as Ringo playing the rim-click pattern on the snare.

This question cannot be answered by me

There were too many styles of The Beatles.

The Early Beatles is no where near albums like Let It Be or MMT .

I like all of them but Revolution #9

Not sure of the name, possibly Rock and Roll Music.
Also like Fool on the Hill.
(still tickles me they covered a Buck Owens song - this sort of added to Buck's outcast reputation among his peers)

Hate to pop your balloon but that's Andy White, session drummer, on "PS I love you", ddruman. Ringo was not originally on drums on the first versions of that song and "Love me do", because George Martin didn't like him either (the Beatles had already fired Pete Best because Martin said so). The single finally came out (with a little bit of prompting from the rest of the Beatles) with Ringo on "Love me do", but the session drummer on "Ps I love you".

My favourite Beatles song changes all the time, depending on my mood at the time I am asked. I am like Dennis I like them all except Revolution #9 from the white album, but my favourites are and have been:

"I'm a loser"
"In my life"
"Love me Do"
"I Feel Fine"
"She loves you"
"Cant buy me love"
"I should have known better"
"Norweigan Wood"
"Taxman"
"Across the universe"
The whole White album (except above) I wore out 3 of them before I got the CD
"Because"
"Here comes the Sun"
"Revolution" (both versions)
"Carry that weight" (My guitar lessons)
"Strawberry Fields Forever"
"She came in through the Bathroom window"

and my current fave
"You've Got to Hide Your Love Away"

Never will there be another band that good in my lifetime.
I always get a tear in my eye when I hear "Free as a Bird"... what could have been...

Big 350 - sort of surprised you are asking about the Beatles. I would have thought you were the FTE token Bee Gees and AC/DC enthusiast.

haha - The Bee Gee's are alright (they can get on your nerves quickly), and Acca Dacca are great for laugh, and if you get a chance to see them live, take it, nothing short of brilliant.

But no person or group have surpassed The Beatles for sheer diversity and brilliance in my opinion.
Don't know if anyone ever will....

I like MOST of the Beatles stuff, EXCEPT "The Ballad of John and Yoko".


True favorites are:

The Long and Winding Road
Day tripper
'Til there was You
