| I've never been a big Beatles fan, so I guess I'll duck & run for cover (and study up on their songs & lyrics for the challenge)! ;-) |

I so agree. my favorite by far. I won't be doing it though because if i didi it how I want t I would get many many low votes:( I have always said that the white album but today i relistened to Abbey road, I had forgotten how great it is. |

man...it's so hard to pick! the Beatles are my all-time fave band.
guess for album, my fave would be either "Hard Day's Night" or "Revolver". a fave song is even tougher to choose. there are 3 songs that are always in my playlist, though. "I Will", "Things We Said Today" and "I'm Only Sleeping".
i did a Beatles themed pic ages ago...lol.

Don't know about favorite album, but the first 45 I ever bought was with my paper route money in the 60's.
Revolution.
and the B side??????
Eleanor Rigby
Imagine that. Eleanor Rigby was the afterthought song. |

I think the song "Mother Nature's Son" would be a great challenge!
Check out this neat website!!

Tough... Favorite album depends highly on my mood but even with that I would have to call it a tie between Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's.
Song, even tougher. I don't know that I could actually pick one but just to be different and not pick one that has been mentioned before I would go with "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite".

I grew up hearing mostly folk and show tunes, so the first Beatles album I really liked was Rubber Soul. which I consider their "unplugged" album. Later, after I started playing some, I learned to appreciate the earlier stuff too.
Some favorite tracks:
John: In My Life; Revolution
Paul: Eleanor Rigby; the "long version" of Hey Jude which was shown on the Smothers Comedy Brothers Hour (perhaps one of the first "music videos" on network TV) was pretty good too.
George: While My Guitar Gently Weeps; Taxman
A Day In The Life deserves special mention, as what I think may be one of the few Lennon/McCartney tunes which is actually a collaboration, as well as for the technical achievement which it took to record it using the equipment of the day.

Man oh man...I don't think I could pick just one...
While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Blackbird, Hey Jude, Julia, The Sun King trilogy from Abbey Road (Mean Mr. Mustard, Polythene Pam, She Came in Through the Bathroom Window), Norwegian Wood, A Day in the Life, Michelle, In My Life, Dear Prudence, Rocky Raccoon....etc etc..etc...
I may only be 30, but I am a huge Beatles fan. I am looking forward to the challenge, but I can only hope I can do one of these phenomenal songs justice! |

My fave album is the White album ..the diversity of the content combined with the overall high quality of the music is quite staggering.
Much harder to pick a favourite track...I find it difficult to separate.."Strawberry fields", "I am the Walrus" and "Rain"...so I`ll go for these three. |

Very hard to choose! Maybe Sergeant Pepper's, and Magical Mystery Tour.
Song: You've Got to Hide Your Love Away (and several others) |

I know what you mean, but it's also supposedly common knowledge that the White Album is a mess. But the original Let It Be and the White Album are both phenomenal.
