Yes definitely catchy as hell. Afterall, most of them are almost pure pop. I will say one thing for them though, they're a lot more fun to listen to in the car than later Beatles.

I dunno about that If you have a car full of people who know the words to most later Beatle songs.

Hmm that's a good point, but the thing I like about old Beatles songs in the car is that they don't really require much of your attention to appreciate, unlike most later Beatles songs.

Last time I was in a car ful of people who knew Beatles lyrics, they had 1 one. We got some early songs and some late ones, but everyone was singing to all of it.

[QUOTE=guitrguy]They maybe sappy but they are catchy as hell.[/QUOTE]
Agreed. Plus, they're not all super sappy.

I like the early stuff, that's how I got into The Beatles.

I worked my way backwards with the Beatles. I used to hate their early stuff and love the White Album and Abby Road, though now I'm a Beatles fan of all years.

I started with Yellow Submarine (the movie and songtrack). I was pretty much rooted in the psychadelic era for awhile, then went forward to the awesomeness of their later years, mainly Abbey Road and the White Album. Only recently have I begun getting CDs of their early stuff (got Help and Hard's Days Night several months ago).

I said some, not all.

I learned to play Across the Universe on guitar the other day. Really fun song to play.

I love that song. I finally learned all of Blackbird a few days ago.

This thread is slowly dying....*tear

So long as the Beatles remain popular this thread will not die.

Yes it will.

Name 5 Beatles songs I have never heard. The winner will recieve a e-clap on the back.

Name two Beatles songs any regular in this thread hasn't heard... I'm pretty sure everyone here has heard everything by them.

I don't know, theres a lot of tracks off of In the Begining that are pretty obscure.

It's getting close.

Lately I've been really getting into [I]Help![/I]. I had never really listened to all of it before, but I love all of the songs on it. The first line of "The Night Before" has an awesome melody, and "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away" is just plain good.

I used to have the Past Masters Vol. 1 years ago before I gave it to a friend a long time ago. It had all of those, short of I Call Your Name, I think.

Revolver is such a nice album to listen to when you're bored during any class in school :)

I've been obsessed with In My Life this week. I even learned it on guitar yesterday. Like most Beatles songs its really fun to play. I'm still trying to find the keybord solo transcribed. Great song. I've been obsessed with the entire Yellow Submarine soundtrack as well. It's All Too Much is a great song too.

i've been obsessed with In My Life for like, 5 years!

I learned it on bass like sophmore year, when i was trying to learn bass (didn't learn much, just a few riffs and songs) but at least I can play it!

In My Life has been one of my 2 favourite Beatles songs for a solid 3 years now. The other song has changed numerous times. I love the deeply personal lyrics though, and the melody is beautiful.

In My Life is a beautiful song, and to think that they were pretty young when they wrote it. It is pretty deep.

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]The only one I can think of is "While My Guitar Gentyl Weeps."
:)[/QUOTE]

I like Here Comes the Sun better than Blue Jay Way...but i do agree, While My Guitar Gently Weeps is the best Harrison song. Claptons solo's are heart-melting, and the beggining is beautiful.

And IMO, Something is over-rated, still good.

While were talking about obscure songs, I Call Your Name is one of my favourite Beatle tracks. I love the hook/chorus "Ooo I can't sleep at night, but just the same, I don't weep at night, I Call your name!"

obscure Beatles songs? You mean from their earlier days?

I've always liked Tell Me What You See....though I don't know if thats obscure or not.

The solo in In My Life is amazing.

I've been liking Please Please Me for a bit now. Revolver never gets old.
