Now that's one's easily in my top 20, which makes sense since I love puns.

It's one of my favourite Beatles songs! Listen to the bass on the remastered version. It's trippy. It's all about that bass.

I never loved him.. he was part of the puzzle to make them complete

but a small percentage..



My asshole spewin loose bowels has a better sound than his voice.

Justin1972UK said:

I have the remastered, but... eh. It's a weak vocal, a weak lyric idea, and a blah melody. They left if off Sgt. Peppers for a reason.

But that's just my humble opinion

NDRU said:

No way! This is one of my favorite Beatle songs ever! I think it's one of their best 'pop' efforts; I can hear the influence in today's pop artists. It's all about the production, the mixing, and the effects.

As far as "bad" Beatle songs, I'd nominate 'Good Morning, Good Morning', 'Wild Honey Pie', 'Honey Pie', 'Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite', 'Piggies', 'Savoy Truffle', and 'Lady Madonna'.

some of these songs you're mentioning are fine, more than that they're classics.

but WHY OH WHY does the released version of "It's Only Love' contain such an OUT OF TUNE guitar part, when the Anthology version is clearly superior with a perfectly fine guitar part?

Some of their early stuff is kind of half-finished... people were less caring about fidelity and things in the early rock n roll days i guess.

also, i never cared for some of Paul's more hokey work, namely "when i'm 64"

So interesting how different people's opinions are! I think Good Morning Good Morning is very underrated, but I think Getting Better & Fixing a Hole are much better "Paul" songs than Lovely Rita (though I mentioned how I like the opening to it)

I know John hated Lady Madonna (along with many of you) but I never understood why.

JPW said:

A couple of the Anthology versions are better--Cry Baby Cry is another example. I never really liked it until I heard the Anthology version.

I like both Maxwell & Rocky. They're very goofy, but they create their own worlds. They don't strive to be great, and work perfectly for what they are.

I tend to not like songs that feel incomplete or imperfect. Good Day Sunshine has an incredible hook, but the verse is so lazy, and the song becomes very repetitive by the end.

THAT PRINCE FAM TALK!

GangstaFam said:

Some of my favorite Beatles too.

It's pure joyous Pop, accent on the Joy...

I Saw Her Standing There
You Can't Do That
A Hard Day's Night
Can't Buy Me Love
Things We Said Today
I Should Have Known Better
Any Time at All
I'm Happy Just to Dance With You

etc.

...How could you not feel good after hearing some of those tunes.

What, what, and WHAT?!

minneapolisgenius said:

Alot of people dislike Oh! Darling, but I bet if Lennon sung it it'd be a Beatles classic. Lennon's voice so much more suited to the song than Paul's. Why was Paul so stubborn? He should've let Lennon sing it. He knew Lennon would've done a better job. McCartney's a jerk, I've never liked him. Great songwriter, good singer, good musician, but a jerk!

minneapolisgenius said:

1 boring violins , annoying choirs and bad lyrics
2 annoying melody , stupid lyrics
3 half of what he sings here is meaningless indeed , lame , repetitively
constantly saying Julia

Dewrede said:

I think "Julia" is a song about his mother. Listen to it in that context and I think you might hear a whole different song.

I didn't know that

Playing it now , i still think it's whiney , sorry

Dewrede said:

1. no

2. no

3. and no.

Dewrede said:

well, all i can say is, for karma's sake, never write a song about your mom.

I think the Karma will be gentle with me because i can't help not liking it

Dewrede said:

happy mother's day all the same!

you too

Some of the songs that people in this thread say they dont like but I like:
Lady Madonna, The Ballad of John and Yoko, Rocky Racoon, A Hard Days Night, Lovely Rita (I like all songs in Sargent Pepper actually), ...

Songs of The Beatles that I consider overrated: Hey Jude (), Rain, Michelle, Dont Let me down,

Songs by The Beatles really awful: You know my name, The long and widing...

I think the melody to Michelle is genius
