THE ULTIMATE LENNON/McCARTNEY SONG - Round 1, Day 15

Postby Erchie on Thu Jul 27, 2006 2:20 pm

In the series we are trying to find out the most favourite Lennon/McCartney song of georgeharrison.com. Compeating we have all 180 songs that are credited as "Lennon/McCartney" (or McCartney/Lennon) and released officially in some form, not necessary by The Beatles. On the first round we have always 4 song compeating against each other and two of them with most votes will go through. However, if there is a 3-way or even 4-way tie in the first place, all of them go through. If there is a tie in the second place, only the #1 goes through. The polls will be open for four days.

Have fun and please tell what you voted and why. :D


Songs that have already made it to the round 2:

Eight Days A Week
Eleanor Rigby
For No One
From Me To You
Get Back
Girl
Glass Onion
Happiness Is A Warm Gun
Hello Goodbye
Hello Little Girl
Helter Skelter
Here, There And Everywhere

Good Day Sunshine
Got To Get You Into My Life
Help!

Yes, Hey Bulldog for me too. It's a great track that really rocks along. I love to hear this song played live by Tribute bands :-)

I also like P.S. I Love You very much, but I'm not overly keen on Don't let Me Down.
The Long And Winding Road is a great song but I sometimes have to be in the right mood to really appreciate it.

I went with Hey, Bull Dog, too. I think it's a rather unique and quirky spot in the catalog, and I love it's edge. I'm not overly keen on Don't Let Me Down, either. I guess my feelings on the other two are also similar to yours, DSL.

I went with Don't Let Me Down. My friends and I jam to this one occasionally. I also like Hey Bulldog but I picked one with a sentiment.
...I'm grateful to anyone that is happy or free
for giving me hope while I was looking to see
the light that has lighted the world.

Much as I like the other songs, I had to go with P.S. I Love You, which is a favorite song of mine. Hey Bulldog would have been my 2nd choice.
