11.02.21 | Oh look it's a Beatles list how original |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | Where's I Am the Walrus?
Here Comes the Sun as best George?
Also, as good as Blackbird is, The Beatles have so many classics that it feels like such an odd choice for #1
bad list |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | Fuck I'm the Walrus that song blows lol |
widowslaugh123
11.02.21 | List blows |
Ryus
11.02.21 | i am the walrus>>>>
|
Ryus
11.02.21 | tomorrow never knows is #1 |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | I Am the Walrus is psychedelic perfection
Now I double hate this list |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | I am the walrus is one of the worst Beatles songs. |
Ryus
11.02.21 | this dude has Old Brown Shoe on here lmaooooooooo |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "this dude has Old Brown Shoe on here"
based |
samwise2000
11.02.21 | i think a lot of their early work is underrated compared to the latter half, some great stuff on even their debut nobody talks about |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | Old Brown Shoe is great, but how the hell is that higher than Blue Jay Way
Top 5 Beatles probably:
1. I Am the Walrus
2. Tomorrow Never Knows
3. Lady Madonna
4. Blue Jay Way
5. She Came in Through the Bathroom Window |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | Forget probably, I'm actually confident with that list |
widowslaugh123
11.02.21 | Glass onion is the only thing in the top 5 that could possibly be considered an actual top 5 Beatles song |
JKing92
11.02.21 | Ars' list > this list
Though "Strawberry Fields Forever" is hands down my number one. |
combustion07
11.02.21 | 14 is my favorite. Love Maxwell's Silver Hammer also |
JKing92
11.02.21 | I will say that "Here Comes the Sun" deserves its top five placement, though. Probably my favorite George song. |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | tomorrow never knows and its all too much are my joint favs so yea lotta my fav songs are the most acid-y |
JKing92
11.02.21 | I agree there. It seems that a lot of my favorite songs from the 1966-1967 period are the ones that sound the most "acid-esque" ("Tomorrow Never Knows," "Within You Without You," "Blue Jay Way," "Strawberry Fields," etc). |
RogueNine
11.02.21 | Walrus is just good, so not top 25 material. |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | Forgot Across The Universe from Let It Be Naked so had to remove Blue Jay Way. Once they release the amazing stereo Mix from the Blu Ray I'll reconsider. |
Veldin
11.02.21 | Everyone's list will probably be pretty different. Agreed that Across the Universe from Let It Be Naked needs to be in top 25. Don't really agree with 1-3 (sorry), 8, 10, and 19. I Am the Walrus is pure punk and indeed top 25 |

ars' list >>>> this list |
Colton
11.02.21 | whole top 10 is a huge yikes |
Ryus
11.02.21 | real top 5 is sumn like
1. tomorrow never knows
2. strawberry fields
3. rain
4. i'm only sleeping
5. something |
Colton
11.02.21 | not bad |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | lol |
JohnnyoftheWell
11.02.21 | top 5 can be any combo of A Day In The Life, Strawberry Fields, Blue Jay Way, one of I'm Only Sleeping, and Happiness Is A Warm Gun and then Help as the token pop tune
Martha My Dear and Glass Onion being anywhere this ranking is an embarrassment |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | yea rain is top 10 material rlly wish it was on revolver but i j drop it in where good day sunshine is anyway |
Veldin
11.02.21 | Glass Onion is dope |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | §Martha My Dear and Glass Onion being anywhere this ranking is an embarrassment§
The fuck? Both are fucking amazing. Martha My Dear might be my favorite Beatles melody ever and Glass Onion just rocks |
YoYoMancuso
11.02.21 | 7, 12, Tomorrow Never Knows, Oh Darling, and 14 would be my top five |
Ryus
11.02.21 | respectable top 5 johnny |
JohnnyoftheWell
11.02.21 | Glass Onion is the worst kind of fanservice, most remarkable thing about it is that it turns a runtime that short into such a lingering afterimpression of Lennon smugly pushing up his glasses. destroy it.
ty ryus, not so bad yourself |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | worst opinion ever |
YoYoMancuso
11.02.21 | Johnny we both like the same song, has this ever happened |
Veldin
11.02.21 | I'm honestly used to the version of Glass Onion on "Love", which I, heh, love. I still enjoy the original, but isn't top 25.
The medley on Abbey Road is my favorite. On the 50th anniversary there's a cool, 16-min track called "The Long One", which I guess was an original version of the medley, because there are slight differences, but most notably, much of The End is missing. |
JohnnyoftheWell
11.02.21 | probably like once but you spoiled it by putting Oh Darling in your top 5
"worst opinion ever"
i will not take flack from anyone who go the whole way thru the beatles discog and come out believing that they have 25 songs better than both i am the walrus and tomorrow never knows plz atone for this cringe |
YoYoMancuso
11.02.21 | tomorrow never knows not being here is def my biggest complaint |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | As I said: I Am The Walrus sucks (I mean it. Don't like that song).
Tomorrow Never Knows is cool but not top 25. |
rockarollacola
11.02.21 | No Piggies. Shit list, 0/10. |
fogza
11.02.21 | 23 is 1. This list is weird and makes me feel uncomfortable |
Sinternet
11.02.21 | happiness is a warm gun, norwegian wood, tomorrow never comes, eleanor rigby, strawberry fields is the top 5 |
zakalwe
11.02.21 | Martha My Dear? |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | Literally everyone's top 5 in the comments is better than Reefa's lol |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | As for the Glass Onion debacle: I always liked it, but if we're talking White Album Lennon tunes, Dear Prudence comes literally right before it and is WAY better |
Egarran
11.02.21 | Love that this band is still such a source for conflict.
FIXING A HOLE IN THE OCEAN |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "Martha My Dear?"
Absolutely yes. Best melody Paul has ever written |
ArsMoriendi
11.02.21 | I love Martha My Dear cuz it's a cute song Paul wrote for his English Sheepdog Martha, but he also wrote Lady Madonna and I Will so uh idk man |
wham49
11.02.21 | I've just seen a face |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | Just because he wrote it for a dog doesn't make it less musically genius than any other Beatles song. |
protokute
11.02.21 | now these are some curious picks |
Cimnele
11.02.21 | cool. i like these:
Blue Jay Way
Good Morning Good Morning
Strawberry Fields obv
Hey Bulldog
Something
dunno |
Winesburgohio
11.02.21 | I did one but Sputnik ate it by the looks of it. Hard to top In My Life |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | Agreed In My Life rules |
DoofDoof
11.02.21 | First Revolver pick at 13 dunt sit right with me |
zakalwe
11.02.21 | Hey Bulldog is one of the most underrated songs of all time. Absolute classic. |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "First Revolver pick at 13 dunt sit right with me"
Revolver is still amazing. This just shows how incredible their catalog is |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | Lol how tf has nobody mentioned you never give me your money? That's easily top 10. It's cool to see martha my dear appear in a top 5 tho, that song never gets its due and it's fantastic |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | Glass onion is a cool inclusion too but it's way too high. It's an underrated song but top 5? |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "It's cool to see martha my dear appear in a top 5 tho, that song never gets its due and it's fantastic"
I really think people just write it off because of the subject matter which is a shame |
zakalwe
11.02.21 | It’s a bit shit though innit |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | oi bruv you takin' the piss? |
wham49
11.02.21 | whoever said Blue Jay way has to be a joke |
widowslaugh123
11.02.21 | Blue jay way slaps you’re crazy |
zakalwe
11.02.21 | Strawberry Fields Forever
Something
Rain
In My Life
She Said She Said
You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away
Dear Prudence
Happiness is a Warm Gun
Ticket to Ride
Paperback Writer |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "whoever said Blue Jay way has to be a joke"
This mix is amazing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Coz0TmK2ZIg
Sadly they never released it it's ripped from the Blu Ray which is a shame because all the other mixes suck hard on headphones because of the panning |
Colton
11.02.21 | everyone sleeping on And Your Bird Can Sing and You Never Give Me Your Money |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | "I really think people just write it off because of the subject matter which is a shame"
Tbh I don't think the Beatles are top tier writers so yeah that never even bothered me. I just think that melody is one of the best things they've ever written. |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | blue jay way is incredible and one of their best
off the top of my head top 10 is probably
1. its all too much
2. tomorrow never knows
3. and your bird can sing
4. rain
5. she said she said
6. happiness is a warm gun
7. long long long
8. love you to
9. inner light
10. blue jay way
didnt realize how devoid of hits it was gonna be until i typed it out and maybe im forgetting a few obvious ones but like those songs dont need anymore love than they already get anyway |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "Tbh I don't think the Beatles are top tier writers so yeah that never even bothered me. I just think that melody is one of the best things they've ever written."
Agreed they could be singing about eating ass and I'd still love that song |
wham49
11.02.21 | BJW a top 10 best Beatles song??!!!
crazy |
Kompys2000
11.02.21 | Help, A Day In The Life, Something, Hey Jude aaaand I'm Looking Through You? Could comfortably swap that last one out for a handful of others (WMGGW, I feel fine, maybe even should have known better if I'm shooting for an underdog pick) but that top 4 is pretty sturdy |
wham49
11.02.21 |
"Agreed they could be singing about eating ass and I'd still love that son"
that would be more a Zappa song
or wait Norwegian wood |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | Here guys:
https://open.spotify.com/track/1jOLTO379yIu9aMnCkpMQl?si=xt-rQHBdQqCYzahasgDfEA&utm_source=copy-link
Since nobody besides Colton has apparently heard this song lol |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | tbh most of abbey road is a "sum of its parts" kinda thing, that song included. those songs arent really my personal top picks for their best songs but from a cohesion standpoint it all fits incredibly together making all those songs better in context resulting in front to back one of their best albums |
protokute
11.02.21 | a quick one
1. tomorrow never knows
2. if i needed someone
3. taxman
4. paperback writer
5. rain
6. she said she said
7. i want to tell you
8. norwegian wood
9. ticket to ride
10. day tripper
11. love you to
12. within you without you
13. with a little help from my friends
14. across the universe
15. the inner light

zakalwe
11.02.21 | Nice |
protokute
11.02.21 | honestly, i could have picked all revolver songs + plus rain/paperback writer |
Ryus
11.02.21 | great list protokute, within you without you is amazing |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | within you without you almost made my top 10 and prob would if i didnt prefer love you to. both rule tho |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | The Beatles have so many great songs that it's impossible to satisfy everyone so not surprising. Some people are bound to get ass-mad no matter what you do |
wham49
11.02.21 | of course people have heard that song Gyro,
why you pushing so hard |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | just wait for my Bowie ranking lol |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | jimmies will get rustled |
Ryus
11.02.21 | cant wait |
protokute
11.02.21 | i could listen to those jangling guitar lines from if i needed someone forever, lovely harmonies and lyrics too. very underrated tune in my opinion |
Ryus
11.02.21 | yep great tune
their psych/jangly stuff>>
|
Gyromania
11.02.21 | People would prob hate my top 10 too Reef lol.
1. Tomorrow never knows
2. A day in the life
3. You never give me your money
4. Martha my dear
5. For no one
6. Golden slumbers/carry that weight/the end
7. LSD
8. Octopus's Garden
9. Here comes the sun
10. Good night
So hard to pick tho. I'm leaving out back in the ussr, across the universe, fool on the hill, strawberry jam, taxman, Eleanor Rigby, happiness, guitar gently weeps, blackbird, walrus, and let it be which are all 5/5 songs too. |
Ryus
11.02.21 | tbh abbey road is overrated and the medley is not that good |
protokute
11.02.21 | for sure my man ryus, jangly psych beatles rules hard
and yeah I can't get much into Abbey besides Something................. |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | No, sgt peppers is the overrated album. It has like 3 good songs |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | "sgt peppers is the overrated album. It has like 3 good songs"
truuuuuuuuuuuuue |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | White Album is easily their best |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | Yeah, white album and revolver are their best |
GmemberKills
11.02.21 | glad to see others would put i'm only sleeping in their top 5 |
zakalwe
11.02.21 | What about albums though?
Peppers
White
Revolver
Abbey
Soul |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | Surprised no other list in here even mentioned Sexy Sadie. |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | pepper is about half good so is mmt. best tracks from both plus too much would make an album almost as good as everyone says pepper is but alas |
Kompys2000
11.02.21 | Okay everyone what's the vibe on rev 9 in a top 20 Beatles songs, originally thought of it as a meme but I might actually stand by it |
onionbubs
11.02.21 | i have never fucked w r9 at all lmao |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | Lol r9 would be in my top 20. Song is creepy af |
ReefaJones
11.02.21 | R9 isn't even a song |
Ryus
11.02.21 | if you actually think that then log off forever |
zakalwe
11.02.21 | Absolute bollocks |
Gyromania
11.02.21 | There's some cool stuff happening in r9, idk why people hate on it so much. They have infinitely shittier songs than r9 |
JKing92
11.02.21 | "Revolution 9" > "Revolution 1" |
protokute
11.02.21 | that's another tune I played in my English class for my friends, don't need to say i creeped them out |
sonictheplumber
11.02.21 | the beatles are racist and uh, yep im a 20 year old communist meme lord :D |
