      My choice would be 'Strawberry Fields Forever', b-side 'Penny Lane' ...... surely the strongest 'single' ever released.

      "In my life" gets my vote.But "strawberry fields forever" and "yesterday" are right up there!

      Not a big fan of The Beatles. Apart from George Harrison, I find/found their egos quite nauseating, but saying that I can not denigh their music, melodies, compositions, and the like, fantastic.

      Personally I do not think you can have a "greatest" Beatles song as I like diferent ones for different moods, but I do agree with justice4the96 with There are places I remember because of that wounderful Istanbul Video.

      "In My Life" especially with the words being spoken by Sean Connery, always leaves my hairs standing on end when I hear this version.

      Personally for me any from Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, A Day In The Life or Eleanor Rigby.

      Anything off Sgt. Pepper and Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane also the White Album is a real showstopper.

      8 Days A Week

      Penny Lane

      In My Life

      For me Helter Skelter, Let it Be, Eleanor Rigby or While My Gutar Gently Weeps with Eric Clapton.  These are the only Beatles songs I really like...the rest are listenable but I'm not a huge fan.

      I'd like to say about my favorite songs, not the greatest ones.

      1. I've just seen a face.  Is it folk or country?
      I'd like even dance remix made for that song what is unusual for me.
      2. Ticket to ride.
      I like music video of that song in "Help!"
      3. Getting better!
      Like the line: I have to admit it's getting better. It's getting better all the time!
      An optimistic phrase for every  day!

      Not a big fan of The Beatles. Apart from George Harrison, I find/found their egos quite nauseating, but saying that I can not denigh their music, melodies, compositions, and the like, fantastic.

      I started listening their music because of their personalities after I watched AHDN. In fact,before I was indifferent to all their greatness.

      I like most of them, but A Day in the Life just captures the Beatles so well that it's a classic to me.
      Other ones: Come Together, Strawberry Fields Forever, Ticket to Ride, Day Tripper, It's Only Love, etc.

      Yeah the shootheads need shitting.

      There ARE too many. Some of my faves are:

      If I Fell
      Drive My Car
      Do You Want To Know A Secret?
      For No-One (a beautiful song)

      Thats almost an Impossible question to answer. I love the Beatles, so picking 1 song is frying my brain.

      My #1 Would have to be "Dont Let Me Down". It is a PERFECT song. Even Ringo's drums.

      However the below songs are real close.

      Tommorrow Never Knows
      Eleanor Rigby
      We Can Work It Out
      A Day in the Life
      Magical Mystery Tour
      While My Guitar Gently Weeps.....Which I think was all George Harrison. Maybe wrong.

      Toughie this but probably Back In The USSR for me. Love I Am The Walrus too. There's some perfume ad out at the moment with Drive My Car on it, keep finding myself breaking into "beep beep, beep beep, yeah" whenever it comes on!
