The Songfactor's Choice (The Beatles)

[MindCrime]

I voted for half, surprisingly (I always figured my taste in the Beatles was different from everybody elses )

The only one I had an affect on was Come Together, which would've missed out if I didn't vote for it where I did.

I guess I don't get it but the "Grateful Dead" might fit in there...and as someone has already said "Jefferson Airplane" or "Starship" You know...Allman Brothers?

I was joking about the Jeffersons... I know they don't have that many hits...

1. In My Life

10. I'm So Tired

[Viaene]

I didn't know 'Let it be' was considered such a great song. I mean, it's ok, but after hearing it sooo many times I find it a bit mellow now..

I can agree with the other 9 songs that made it though

[BlueAngel]

Sorry I missed this one, don't know if it would have changed much... I'll do a post-count vote anyway

1. Come Together

2. A Day In The Life

3. In My Life

4. For No One

5. Eleanor Rigby

6. Here Comes The Sun

7. I Want You (She's So Heavy)

8. Something

9. Let It Be

10. Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)

Too tough

I'm surprised by Let it Be and it's high placement as well, but it's a great Ten. I voted for 4 out of the ten which is more than I'd thought it would be.

[Steel2Velvet]

Of the Top Ten; five by John, four by Paul and one by George. That's the Beatles for sure!

[Lucky]

Wow, Ron you're right. Which means that we as Sf'er's got it right. Cool.

[edna]

Of the Top Ten; five by John, four by Paul and one by George. That's the Beatles for sure!

[MindCrime]

Let It Be was #4 on the Super Ultimate Top 10 for best songs ever according to Songfacts.

[Lucky]

Interesting. Good song, but definatly not my favorite of the Beatles.

[pinkstones]

Same here. I'm not even a fan of the album Let It Be. I much prefer Abbey Road. Incidentally, while Let It Be was the last Beatles album released, Abbey Road was the last album they recorded. They should have been released in that order. Abbey Road is a much better coda to the Beatles experience than Let It Be.

[MindCrime]

Okay with so many jeers, I think I need to recount the votes for Let It Be

[Lucky]

No, I'm sure it's right. For songs in general it's a great song, and I'm sure I probably voted for it before. For the Beatles only it may be another story.

[Lea]

I like it ok and may have voted on it (I checked. I didn't) but it's by far not one of my favorite Beatles songs

I don't mean to jeer, I'm just kinda surprised it made it so high. It's ok tho. I love my Beatles and like that song a lot anyway

It is not only one of my favorite Beatles songs, but one of my favorites of all time, but I guess that means I suck, cause I differ from the "experts."

Will there be a suggestion thread, because I'd like to suggest a special Billy Joel and a special Elton John T T.

[MindCrime]

Yeah we need a special thread to carry out these suggestions.

[MindCrime]

Anyways this thread can probably be unstickied at this point.
