George, 'cause _All Things Must Pass_ is one of my favorite albums. Favorite songs with the Beatles are probably “Here Comes the Sun,” “Long, Long, Long,” and “Old Brown Shoe.” They’re all great, though. ---

Born in '63. My parents, for some strange reason, owned _Revolver_ - they like “Here, There and Everywhere” and thought the rest of the album would be like it. I remember looking at the back and just feeling a connection with John. I really felt he was talking to me. One of the first music heroes that I truly idolized. ---

It’s a tie between Paul and John for me. Paul was romantic and John had another quality, sort of cynical I guess, that made him very attractive for some reason. The two of them together were pretty much unbeatable. ---

Paul! He looks somewhat like my father and has the same Zodiac sign. ---

George…obviously. John, in an interview in the late 60’s, talking about the forming of the band said; “George was the guy that Paul and I wanted to be.” ---

John - definitely. ---

I pick Paul. I LOVE him in interviews, and I’ve seen him in concert and LOVED it. George is a close second to me, though. ---

Paul, then George/Ringo. John a very distant last. ---

George – from the very beginning. Because of him I began learning guitar at 12, which led to a 12-string, a mandolin, and my favorite, a 5-string banjo. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/your-favorite-beatle/183687.md?page=1)
