Ten Favorite Beatles Songs
(I waited until I had completed this list to calculate who wrote which songs, and apparently I very slightly prefer Paul McCartney over John Lennon. Who knew? Anyway, here are my top ten, in order of preference.)
You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away (Lennon)
Yesterday (McCartney)
Come Together (Lennon)
A Day in the Life (Lennon mostly, with some McCartney)
For No One (McCartney)
Something (Harrison)
I’m Looking Through You (McCartney)
While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Harrison)
Eleanor Rigby (McCartney)
Ticket to Ride (Lennon)
