I still have fond memories of the kids from ZOOM doing their weekly song-and-dance number to that song. Ahh, to be young again.....

Ringo also sang lead on that one, I believe. Octopus' Garden is one of the weakest songs in the Beatles' catalog, along with Long and Winding Road. Certainly it's the worst song on Abbey Road. IMHO.

That was a great song! I wish I'd put it on the list in place of Matchbox.

was also a fine song by Ringo... as well as the last track on the White Album "Now it's time to say good night" written for Ringo by John Lennon. But I voted for "A Little Help From My Friends."

11. I made this poll because I was thinking of Good Night
which I am still tempted to vote for. It's such a beautiful little song, and Ringo sings it particularly sweetly. But then I started making this list and realized I like a lot more Ringo songs.

5. Don't Think That's A Beatles' Tune
That's a solo effort, i'm almost 100% sure. The Professor

But Joe Cocker's version blows it away.
