''You Won't See Me'' is the best song I've ever heard, though nobody seems to agree. It's not one of the better known tracks on Rubber Soul, sandwiched between two megahits, but from the first time I heard it, I knew this was my band.

the most underrated and overlooked track featuring ringo starr is the beautiful "good night"
I love almost every beatles song and I realize it's cooler to favor the stones or elvis, but they are my favorite. (although, 'street fighting man' by the stones is one of my favorite rock tunes of all time)..
My very top favorite beatles songs are:
she said (good job on the drums ringo) good night getting better revolution hey jude yesterday (one of the best melodies ever) here comes the sun (incredible) aahhh...I can't pick and choose. I like them all. Especially post drug experiments. You ever notice the colrrelation of color televisaion and colorful thought?

''Martha My Dear'' is amazing, in my top 10 Beatles songs, and probably top 10 songs of all time. I like those gay little pop songs, like ''Lovely Rita''.
And good call on ''Good Night'', that one's a gem.

As you wish, sir.
harmony -- This Boy
guitar solo -- I Want You (She's So Heavy)
love song -- Something
cheesy piano song youre embarassed to like -- Martha My Dear. But I'm not embarrased! This song is a masterpiece.
funny/silly/insane song -- Obla Di Obla Da
Indian-influenced song -- Within You Without You (some people think it's the weakest point of that album, but I think the western/eastern instrumental interplay is breathtaking, really gets intense)
country-influenced song -- I Don't Want to Spoil the Party
blues-influenced song -- I Want You (She's So Heavy)
psychodelic song -- Across the Universe

john peel once said that ob-la-di ob-la-da was thr worst song ever written, and i'm inclined to agree with him. i think mccartney just wrote it to wind up lennon.
harmony - because (surely?)
i want you would be in my top 5 beatles songs easily

Last weekend the party I went to was in the pub where the Beatles made their first ever advertised performance...there is a plaque bolted to the wall saying so.
The pub is a fucking dive.

ophecks: 'you won't see me' is my favourite track from rubber soul, and the instrumental interplay on within you without you is my favourite piece of music ever ... i love all the songs with eastern arrangements.
the worst beatles song is honey pie imo.

i have to agree with EarthLeakage's agreeance... obla-di is a terrible song... though my opinion of it is soiled by the fact that i had to do the polka with this really ugly nerdy girl who asked me to dance and then talked about how gross i was when someone taunted her about it afterward... fuckin' social dance...

What the hell, no! That was an awesome post until you dissed Honey Pie!
WILD Honey Pie, I can understand. Atrocious 40 seconds of music there. But Honey Pie is great. Obla Di also did exactly what it was designed to so, so it's a smashing success, a stupidly cute lil ditty. Paul has all your numbers.

Ophecks: Thank you, your kind service will be remembered.
rez: yeah the instrumental interplay is great...
i like the simpler beatles though.. without the lavish production.. unless its really psychodelic sounds, then it serves a purpose
aaaaand this will just get bumped up to the top..... *adjusts belt*.... OHHHH yeah...
