I still haven't burned it yet , so if u have any suggestions on songs to be taken out , put in , replaced by , or most importantly suggestions about the ORDER of the songs ( Like I said , I be puttin' all the top Beatles hits in order from greatest to non - greatest ) , tell me so I can have the best Beatles CD ever !!!!!

personally i don't really care for 'yellow submarine'
i'd include 'blackbird' and 'all my loving'

I would not include these songs. They are not that great, and you can find better songs to replace them.
I would replace with:
1. Old Brown Shoe
2. Im a looser or Happiness is a Warm Gun
3.Black Bird
4. Cry for nothing )Im not sure about this title)
5. Two of Us
6. Julia

I got the feeling that you are excluiding Revolver and The White Album

I'd include "Dear Prudence," "Fool On The Hill," "In My Life," and "Don't Let Me Down".

dammme said:

Hey Jude ? ITS THE BEST BEATLES HIT EVER !!!!! I think . Wat do u think ?

I would add Come Together

Here's my meaningless opinion:

I'd switch Yesterday & Hey Jude. I don't think Hey Jude is good as track one either, from a flow point of view, as it's too long.

I don't think While My Guitar... works as track 1, either. Hello Goodbye would be better, followed by While...

I'd rather have a mix that flows well, than one of historical accuracy (if you could rank greatness accurately, that is), but I think those changes could accomodate both of our objectives!

I might add more from Revolver & the White Album, as was said before, like Back in the USSR, Tomorrow Never Knows, Here There & Everywhere...and Come Together! Wasn't that a #1?

Incredible collection of songs!

Straight on . Wats the mnost famous between these 3 : Hey Jude , Yesterday , or Let It Be ?

Answer dat , and then I'll know wat to put at 1

C'mon . I'm waiting for an answer

still waiting

Pretty sure it's Yesterday. The song transcends the Beatles (via 1000's of cover versions), whereas Hey Jude was maybe their biggest hit, and their version is the only one you tend to hear.

And Yesterday is by far a much better song than Hey Jude.

damanwithdaplan said:

The three songs are more close to a personal Macca musical statement than a beatle songs. I will put these song in the following order, based in its quality:
1. Yesterday

2. Let it be

3. Hey Jude

Of course, MY personal choices would probably be

1. Come Together
2. I Am The Walrus
3. Strawberry Fields Forever
4. A Day In the Life

but I know those appeal to a slightly more limited (weirder rock & roll) audience than Yesterday & Let It Be (which are a bit more generic, IMO).

andyman91 said:

13- A Hard Day's Night
14- I am the Warlus
15- Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds
16- Penny Lane
17- Strawberry Fields Forever

Yellow Submarine... no no




other than that.. very cool

Sdldawn said:

Yeah , Yellow Submarine is so simple . But that movie made it great

damanwithdaplan said:

Definantly.. its perfect for a cartoon.. I believe Paul wrote that number..

Sdldawn said:

Yeah , McCartney wrote it , but Ringo sung it .

damanwithdaplan said:

isnt that obvious

I believe thats why its hard to get through that song

said it before.. but i'll say it again


people who havent bought the anthologies, do so.. its an important part of their music.. especially anthology 2 and 3.. you get to hear some really great takes of some of the most influential songs in pop history...

OOps . I forgot The Fool On The Hill . I'll put after Magical Mystery Tour . This means I can add one more song . Wat will I add ?

damanwithdaplan said:

Octopus's Garden ? Lady Madonna ? All My Loving ? Old Brown Shoe ? Wat ?
[Edited 12/3/05 3:14am]

I'd squeeze "I'm so tired" in there somewhere, too.
