(Nah, it's cool. :) I happen to love The Who, but you're entitled to your opinion, 'cause this is 'Murka. ;)) :hi:

31. No, I'm sorry, that sentence doesn't compute in my brain. You hate the Beatles??
I must admit, I've never ever ever heard anyone put those words together in a sentence.

How can this be?

7. Lately it's been Two of Us
Makes me think of my best friend. :)


Two of us riding nowhere
spending someone's hard earned pay
You and me Sunday driving
Not arriving on our way back home
We're on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're going home

Two of us sending postcards
writing letters on my wall
You and me burning matches
lifting latches on our way back home
We're on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're going home

You and I have memories
longer that that road
that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats
standing solo in the sun
You and me chasing paper
getting nowhere on our way back home
We're on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're going home

You and I have memories
longer that that road
that stretches out ahead

Two of us wearing raincoats
standing solo in the sun
You and me chasing paper
getting nowhere on our way back home
We're on our way back home
We're on our way home
We're going home
We're going home

It's nice to hear the songs that weren't played 90 million times on the radio.

10. "Yes It Is", "Every Little Thing", "What You're Doing",
"And Your Bird Can Sing", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", "Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End", "Not a Second Time", "No Reply", "A Day in the Life", "She's Leaving Home", "For No One"... those are just a few off of the top of my head. It's really hard for me to narrow down my Beatles favorites!

17. Depends on my mood
but "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is probably one of my favorite songs of all time, no matter what mood I'm in. :loveya: "Here Comes The Sun" is pretty great, too - I actually tend to like George's songs better than John's & Paul's (sorry guys!). :shrug:

24. Eleanor Rigby
I love the violins and cellos, and with the lyrics, that makes for a haunting song that I have always loved.

Hmmm, I didn't mention "Back in the USSR"......

43. Completely depends on my mood...Today it's "Across the Universe"...
Yesterday it was "Strawberry Fields." Oftentimes it's "A Day in the Life," and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." Man...so many...I'm so blown away by The Beatles it's riduculous!

But am partial to their early songs, especially some of the more obscure ones: Any time at all, I'll get you, It won't be long, All I've got to do, What you're doing, Tell me what you see, I'll follow the sun.:)

61. "Revolution" (the promo clip version)
Far superior to the 45 version; a rough, gritty, joyous take, complete w/ some wonderfully ramshackle "shoo-bee-do-wop" backing vocals from George and Paul:
