Tomorrow Never Knows A Day in the Life Happiness Is A Warm Gun Strawberry Fields Forever For No One You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away Eleanor Rigby I’ve Just Seen A Face Revolution We Can Work It Out Man, “I Am The Walrus”, “In My Life”, “Got To Get You Into My Life”, “Penny Lane”, “Rain”, “Help!”, “She Said She Said” - all could have made the cut. ---

In no particular order: Eleanor Rigby (especially the strings only version from the Anthology) Come Together Strawberry Fields Forever Ticket To Ride Paperback Writer A Day in the Life Hey Jude Those are just the ones off the top of my head. As others have said, I could easily have named a completely different bunch. ---

## Hide Your Love Away Across The Universe Penny Lane Twist and Shout If I Fell Norwegian Wood I Feel Fine She Said She Said Girl Love Me Do And because a list of ten isn’t enough… Tomorrow Never Knows Magical Mystery Tour In My Life Things We Said Today Dr. Robert It’s All Too Much Because That’s still not enough, but I’ll stifle myself now.

Cool! I thought I was weird for liking “Got To Get You In To My Life” so much! I don’t think I can whittle it down to 5. I don’t even think I could pick a favorite album. I grew up on such a steady diet of their music that every song means something to me. ---

> [@NineToTheSky](#): > > It’s great to find someone else with the love for It’s All Too Much. I thought I was the only one. Have you heard the long version? Yeah!! At over 8 minutes they certainly jam/chug it out! Speaking of jams, I dream they’ll someday release the full 20+ minute take of Helter Skelter that’s supposed to exist. Supposedly they’re freaking out pretty heavily on it. > [@NineToTheSky](#): > > P. S. It’s Love You To. I’ve always loved that title. I’d love you to… what? Ah! That gives it a totally different feel.. Kinda like “Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You”. Show you what??? ---

I remember Paul McCartney saying it might appear on the Anthology series - but it never did. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-beatle-songs/604897.md?page=1)
