    Depends on my mood. When I'm in love, Something. When I'm full of energy, Sgt Peppers. When I'm sad, A Day in the Life. When I'm kinda high Free as a Bird. When I'm tired I'm so Tired.

    Oh wow, I really don't know. One thing for sure, I can't stand anything pre-Rubber Soul (with a few exceptions). I really don't like the early "poppy" Beatles. Right around Beatlemania actually

    Anyway, my top 10, in no specific order (damn this is going to be hard)

    Eleanor Rigby
    I Me Mine
    While My Guitar Gently Weeps
    I'm Only Sleeping
    Happiness Is a Warm Gun
    Taxman
    Lucy In the Sky with Diamonds
    Fool on the Hill
    A Day in the Life
    The Long and Winding Road

    Bold face type are songs that I relate to ie. my themesongs

    Damn, that was almost painful. No Beatles fan should be forced to do that

    My favourite album is probably Revolver, with Sgt Peppers coming in second, and the White Album in third

    Hehe, I don't know myself.

    Actually, I think I meant John. Because I think it's Happiness is a Warm Gun.....not sure though, I remember reading somewhere that "Warm Gun" is second.

    Ancient history, just like me Wanna eat your heart out? I saw the Beatles at Shea. My brother was the biggest Beatle collector on the east coast. He even got the Beatles to let him record two songs of theirs that were never released and even had capitol let him make the record look like an old Beatles Capitol 45 for his record company and his group. The Badbeats on Beatbad records.

    OMG they made the internet.

    There was a US outfit called the Badbeats who did a 45 on their own Beatbad label of this number backed with another Lennon/Mac tune, "Tip Of My Tongue, which was farmed out to some other wimp in the Epstein stable (I"m thinking it was Tommy Quickly) back in the day.
    I have a few hundred copies of this record that my brother left to me when he was killed if anyone is interested.

    Wow umm... How the hell did I miss this.... oh damn. Hmm, I think it is time we have another TWC Beatles competion on MSN, last one was in June, and that was exhausting.

    hmmm.....

    Post your favorite Beatle's song and album here.
    oh god. WTF. ouch. This is no fair......

    Depends on the mood. But to be honest.... I have a HUGE beatles collection, my room looks like a museum dedicated to the beatles. I love all of their work, it is an aquired taste, if your not into the early stuff........

    Hmm...My favourite pre 66 tune right now is "I saw her Standing there". As for Post-66......While My guitar Gently Weeps.

    But never, ever ask me what my favourite album or Song is overall... mental breakdown and utter collapse of my mentality could occur.

    @Rush

    That is very, very interesting, did your brother happen to make it semi-big? I remember hearing about your brother, I just didnt know he played Music as well!

    He never made it that big but did own his own record company. He also was a friend of Neil Young and wrote a few tunes for Lionel Trains. Owned by Neil Young. His name is also on the sleeve ot that Todd Rudgren album that has a few hundred names on it though I forget the title of the album. He was known to one and all as Beatle Bill.
