[arwalden]

At this very moment---as I type the words that you're reading---I'm listening to my favorite Beatles' song.

I'll bet you can't guess it!

[Book Lover]

1. Gooey sentimentality

I love "Here Comes the Sun" One of the first songs my newborn (when he was new) heard, and heard me sing to him.

on edit: I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say their version of "Rock and Roll Music" is your favorite Beatles tune ?

[Arugula Latte]

39. Yes -- my daughter's first song.

We were playing Abby Rd. and it was on when she finally came out. My husband said it should have been "Here Comes the Daughter" cause we already had our son three years prior.

[Toby109]

2. Now which one is it?

Do you want us to name our favorite Beatles' song or our two favorite Beatles' song or YOUR favorite Beatles' song that is probably over by now.

:-)

[arwalden]

5. I Was More Interested In *Your* Favorite One...

... the "guess-my-favorite" question was just for a bit of fun!

[Toby109]

37. Gotcha!

"For No One" and "If I Fell".

[Double T]

3. "Yesterday" And "Imagine"

[muriel_volestrangler]

4. 'Help' and 'Eleanor Rigby'

I will guess your favourite is "Strawberry Fields Forever"

[arwalden]

7. I Like Those Too...

... but your guess is incorrect. :hi:

[Worst Username Ever]

6. "ice ice baby."

The accoustics were phenomenal.

[arwalden]

8. OMG!

:rofl:

[ComerPerro]

9. "It's All Too Much", "Helter Skelter"

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

10. Here's one

thats held up over the years,
"The Word"- 'the word is love'

[sundog]

11. Norwegian Wood, Michelle

Can you guess my favorite Beatles album? :P

[arwalden]

12. Michelle Is One Of My Favorites...

... guess YOUR favorite album? -- Hey! Are you trying to hijack my thread or something? We're trying to guess my favorite song!

But I'll play anyway... "Beatles '65"

[sundog]

hehe - hijacking is my specialty

:7

[newfaceinhell]

15. That's my favorite, too!

:toast:

[emulatorloo]

18. the great and fabulous Rubber Soul

[MarianJack]

13. I Have 3

"Yesterday", "The Long and Winding Road" & "Michelle".

Several others come right behind.

Unfortunately, in the late 80s I worked in a bar where the DJ (AKA the boss' son) was a Beatles FREAK! I got SOOOOO tired of them that I didn't listen to them for years. That guy is the only DJ I've ever seen get booed off of the stage in favor of the juke box consistently. He STILL thought he was a great DJ.

[newfaceinhell]

14. I'm gonna go with Norwegian Wood, and Yesterday

Though it pains me to leave out Eleanor Rigby, Rain, Something, We Can Work It Out, Taxman. There really should be laws against one band making so many amazing songs, it's must not fair.

[DoBotherMe]

16. Revolution!

[emulatorloo]

17. Singles - Nowhere Man, Strawberry Fields, Penny Lane

Album Cuts - Got to Get You Into My Life, Its Getting Better, Day In the Life, Dear Prudence, For No One, You Never Give Me Your Money

But that could all change tomorrow

[blue neen]

19. "I Feel Fine", "She's A Woman".

and "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away".

[RedstDem]

20. Only One Or Two ?!

I'm Going With Glass Onion & Happiness Is A Warm Gun ...Yes It Is
& Your Favorite = Something..Right ?

[arwalden]

21. I Do Like Something... But That's Not My Favorite.

:hi:

[RedstDem]

25. Well They Only Have Around 300 Songs

Worthy Of Being Someones Favorite, Your Gonna Have To Give A Hint. Why Not Divulge Which Trimester It Is In ?

It's Probably While My Guitar Gently Weeps...That One's Great.

[arwalden]

30. Okay... Here's A Hint

It's energetic.

[muriel_volestrangler]

35. Paperback Writer?

[arwalden]

38. More Energetic Than That...

Here's another hint: "Bueller".

[muriel_volestrangler]

40. Hmm - looking up the soundtrack listing

it seems to be "Twist and Shout". Your favourite Beatles track is their only well known one that they didn't write themselves? Shame on you!

[arwalden]

45. LOL!!

It's my favorite one today. Yeah... shame on me! :hi:

[mcscajun]

22. Can't go with less than four. Just can't.

I Should Have Known Better

Norwegian Wood

When I'm Sixty-Four

Dear Prudence

[asthmaticeog]

23. "Cry Baby Cry" and "Hey Bulldog" n/t

[CottonBear]

24. "While my Guitar Gently Weeps", "Blackbird" & and "Here Comes the Sun."

I've got to add "Yesterday" and "Imagine" also.

My first ever record was a 45 rpm of "Yellow Submarine." My parents also bought me "Puff the Magic Dragon." Wish I still had those 45s. I played them on my Close'N'Play record player.

[VOX]

28. Outstanding choices.

"Blackbird" and and "Here Comes the Sun" are hard to top. :thumbsup:

[CottonBear]

48. Thanks. I love ALL Beatles songs but those are my faves.

I was born in 1963. I had the "Yellow Submarine" 45 as a kid and grew up with AM radio. As I came of age in the 1970s, My friends and I discovered the Beatles. Sgt. Pepper, Revolver, Meet the Beatles, etc. (Along w/ Janis Ian. Laura Nyro, James Taylor, Pat Benatar, Alman Brothers, Marshall Tucker, Eagles , KISS, Springsteen, Dylan...)

The Beatles rock. They stand the test of time. Every song is perfect.

I can't sing or play. My hubby is a musician and a songwriter and a singer and a fine artist. I can only stand back in awe and enjoy the music!

[ghostsofgiants]

26. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

[BobMorr]

27. Revolution 1

Can listen to all the Beatles songs. Their all great. Brings back alot of memories. Is the song Revolution 1 or Revolution 9?

[CornField]

29. Hey Jude & Let it Be

I love it when Paul goes off in Hey Jude.

[shanine]

31. Any time at all

just the first one I thought of when you said energetic . . I think I have just about everything they have done . . like older beatles better

[Bluebear]

32. Things We Said Today & Fool on a Hill

[terrya]

33. I like "Eleanor Rigby"

It's probably my favorite.

[EvolvedChimp]

34. Hey Jude and Rocky Raccoon

But of course All you Need is Love is also an all time favorite. So true. Let it be applies well to much of life too. Just not politics.

[Maine-ah]

36. "why Don't We Do It In the Road"

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me, if you're lonely you can talk to me

[skygazer]

42. Eleanor Rigby and In My Life

I love the whole theme of Eleanor Rigby and the soulful violins. I love the lyrics to In My Life - it makes me smile and think of my best friend and Vermont which I love so much.

46. I Really Liked That One Too...

... I thought it was nice that the TV show "Providence" used the lyrics for their opening theme song.

[CottonBear]

52. In My Life makes me cry and remember my father's death and life...

He died when I was 17. That song would come on the radio and I would have to pull over and sob. I'm crying now. What a beautiful song. I miss my dad.
:cry:

[enigmatic]

47. My 3:

In no order:

"Revolution" (live video promo version)
"All Things Must Pass" (bootleg/"Let It Be" sessions version)
"Yes It Is"

[Borgnine]

49. Strawberry Fields Forever and the Abbey Road Medley.

I know the Abbey Road Medley is really just seven or so songs strung into one, but it needs to be listened to in its entirity.

[opiate69]

50. "I'm Only Sleeping", "Elanor Rigby", "A Day in the Life"

[Taragui Junkie]

51. In the End

I just love that line:

And in the end
The love you take
Is equal to the love
You make

[Emops]

53. "And Your Bulldog Can Sing"

Wait, no, that's not right...

"And Your Bird Can Sing"

and

"Hey Bulldog"

I also like "I Want You (She's So Heavy)."

[Bok_Tukalo]

54. Norwegian Wood, Drive My Car, Nowhere Man

Oh fuck it ... Rubber Soul

[Zomby Woof]

55. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"

Or "In My Life".

Or side two of 'Abbey Road'.

Or... oh I can't decide!
