March 11, 20214 yr Author Thanks everyone for the opinions! I've made a choice now, sorry to those who will be disappointed but next round should surely be more unanimous at last :lol:
March 11, 20214 yr Author ROUND 6: Free Choice 'Let It Be' QDYfEBY9NM4 It was tough to make a decision as opinion was pretty split but I went for defining Beatles hit 'Let It Be'. It was a rare #1 miss for them but was still a #2 hit nevertheless. Paul provides the vocals on this occasion and wrote the song after his mother visited him in a dream. Mary McCartney died of cancer when he was just 14. The "mother Mary" lyric can be interpreted in that sense or in a biblical way. 'Let It Be' is taken from their final studio album of the same name.
March 13, 20214 yr Author Round 6: 08 Let It Be [19 votes] A new peak :cheeseblock: we've finished 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th now, consistency :lol: ~~~ Round 7: SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SINGLE This one HAS to be 'Here Comes The Sun' right? :wub:
March 13, 20214 yr That wasn't a single?! LOL! Good choice! Jade I've been really appreciating your choices even if they're not making it into my votes, you're doing amazing sweetie!
March 13, 20214 yr Author That wasn't a single?! LOL! Good choice! Jade I've been really appreciating your choices even if they're not making it into my votes, you're doing amazing sweetie! Indeed it was not :o merely an 'Abbey Road' album track which is insane :lol: Thanks Leww :wub:
March 13, 20214 yr Was I Am (A Walrus) and Yellow Submarine a double a-side single, or were they never released officially??
March 14, 20214 yr Author Was I Am (A Walrus) and Yellow Submarine a double a-side single, or were they never released officially?? 'Yellow Submarine' was a double-A with 'Eleanor Rigby' (so impactful that it was part of the 'Revolver' album and had its own 'Yellow Submarine' era!!) and 'Walrus' was the B-side to 'Hello, Goodbye'! ~~ Going to send off a choice shortly I think rather than stalling until the last minute like with 'Let It Be' :lol: here's to maybe squeezing in another new peak.
March 14, 20214 yr Author Round 7: Should've Been a Single 'Here Comes The Sun' KQetemT1sWc It may be hard to believe that enduring Beatles classic 'Here Comes The Sun' wasn't a single! But this was indeed the case. It's time to unleash George Harrison vocals now with an 'Abbey Road' contribution written in Eric Clapton's garden. It's both soothing and optimistic. Gosh we really need some of that right now. It's my favourite Beatles song <3
March 14, 20214 yr I never heard it before, but the lyrics are cheesy. If a girl band made those lyrics, the press would have savaged the song.
March 16, 20214 yr Author Round 7: 04 Here Comes The Sun [23 votes] Top 5!! Smashed their previous peak of 8th out of the park :wub: it's what this song deserves tbh <3 ~~~ Now time for the grand finale :o
March 17, 20214 yr Author Round 8: For the Win 'Hey Jude' A_MjCqQoLLA Time to end on a high! 'Hey Jude' was written by Paul McCartney as a comfort song for Julian Lennon, following the separation of his parents. The song started off as 'Hey Jules' and eventually morphed to the very well known and loved 'Hey Jude'. It was a standalone single and became the group's 15th (!) U.K. #1 hit. I'm pleased that these last two Beatles entries have been such optimistic, soothing songs. It's a tough line up but we hope some people will appreciate this choice. Also: Dinosaur
March 20, 20214 yr Author Round 8: 08 Hey Jude [21 votes] A respectable finish in a best of round! :cheer: When I entered The Beatles I expected them to probably be bottom 2 every time and they weren't even in the bottom 3 once in the end. Glad there's a decent amount of love for their music on here! Round 01 (free choice): 10 Eleanor Rigby [19 votes] Round 02 (era opener or closer): 11 Come Together [21 votes] Round 03 (album track): 09 In My Life [19 votes] Round 04 (free choice): 07 Help! [21 votes] Round 05 (uptempo album track): 10 Tomorrow Never Knows [15 votes] Round 06 (free choice): 08 Let It Be [19 votes] Round 07 (should've been a single): 04 Here Comes The Sun [23 votes] Round 08 (best of): 08 Hey Jude [21 votes] Final results revealed tomorrow :o
March 20, 20214 yr You should have sent Imagine and Live Or Let Die to finish hifgher overall in the end!
