2Let It Be
Great melodic masterpiece. One of the most magnificent rock songs of all time. Never get tired of listening to it. It simply feeds my soul.
I don't know why its not #1 its the the embodyment of hope & wisdom because without faith you have truly lost your way in life
What a great hymn! This is such an absolutely perfect rock ballad. Touchy melody, fine chorus, somehow roughly sophisticated arrangement, and slightly weird and religious lyrics about Mother Mary. Is she Mother Mary Magdalene from The Bible or Paul's mother (whose name is Mary too)? This is such a great song that even today, over 30 years after it was released; it can still lift anyone's spirits. A great song with a great message: just let it be!

3A Day in the Life
Greatest song from the greatest album of Rock N' Roll history
Its really telling what is happening everyday in our lives
and it is straight for the heart I like it its too nice very very very nice
The best song for me ever I love you the beatles
A masterpiece that can never be recreated. This song rewrote the standards of pop (and rock) music and goes to show you how advanced The Beatles were (and this was released only in 1967! ) When I first heard this, I was simply speechless.

4Yesterday
A song that places a comforting hand on your shoulder. Absolutely mesmerizing! When the song hits your ears you are transported to another world...
Most of these top ten lists, from NFL Quarterbacks, to top singers, it's like did these people graduate Kindergarten and what are they huffing, and when did they start, like around kindergarten, that's why they didn't finish, but this is a half decent list; I'm glad that MOST of the meaningless bubblegum songs are out of the top 10; however, I think this is an easy #1 (would except a day in the life... ) but not a bad top 5, then again we're dealing w/ beatle's fans which'd make up for the increase in intelligence.

psychokiller32

The lyrics remind everyone of their life. How everything can be one way and then change before you know it. Truly gave me a sense of how change is good and needs to happen.

5Strawberry Fields Forever
Strawberry Fields Forever is absolutely the greatest song written by the Beatles. I never get tired of it. At first listen, it's strange and absolutely nothing sounds like it. But then it evolves into this magnificent, imaginative world. It makes you escape. A great song should be both beautiful and melodic, but also capture your attention and mesmerize. The lyrics in this song are simply incredible. To me, SFF takes the Beatles away from just being a great pop band to being the GREATEST of them all. Songs like this one take them straight to another dimension. As pretty as Hey Jude or Let It Be may sound, there isn't anything special about them. THIS SONG is special beyond words. Please put it at number 1 because it doesn't belong anywhere else. It's truly a masterpiece. Whichever Beatle wrote it, or if it was done by them all, I don't care. It's brilliant.
Strawberry Fields Forever is a masterpiece. This song made the Beatles absolutely unique. There is something about it that shines more than other Beatles songs. It's got a gorgeous melody, a very dreamy atmosphere, and the lyrics are so different. They sound very strange slipping out of the tongue, but there is great depth there. I always think this sound them took them from just a band that made hit songs to a band that made REVOLUTIONARY songs. STRAWBERRY FIELDS for the win.
A great fusion of Indian, avant garde, musique concrete with classical elements. This is also one of the best known psychedelic songs and with it's reverse drum loops and double fade out with a free form coda. The lyrics are dreamy this has to be one of the Beatles best songs of all time.

6Here Comes the Sun
Love this song, it has something that changes my mood. A bad day can be changed in 3 minutes. One of the best of the Beatles and I think the best of George
Here comes the sun is a beautiful song. Written by George Harrison in the album Abbey Road. An iconic album and a wonderful song.
Yes! BEST SONG EVER! In my opinion this will be the ONLY music my children listen to because it is inspiring and calming.

7Eleanor Rigby
I lived through the 60's and beyond, in "the Haight" prior to the Beatles explosion. I listened over and over to all the music. It was everywhere, all the time, making life seem like a totally new dimension, like in the Wizard of Oz, but real life! Out of all the songs I heard, this one had a greater depth and meaning, now, some 50 years later. Hard to believe, but true! Seems like Yesterday, no pun intended.

jamesprestonthomas

Deep meanings, fantastic lyrics. Couldn't get any better! Absolutely love this song, never gets old.
A wonderfully dramatic song and possibly the first classical music pop song.

8While My Guitar Gently Weeps
The greatest ever song of the Beatles era is at NUMBER EIGHT? It is perhaps THE greatest guitar song I've heard from the 60s-70s hippy time, I can't believe its so down low in the rankings... Shame.
Best, along with "A Day in the Life" ^^ "Let it Be". This song stood out immediately when I first listened to the White Album ^^ is also one of the many reasons that album is one of the greatest of all time.
This song brought wonder to my life. I can't believe its rank.

10Twist And Shout
A song that will never be forgotten!
This song is rock n roll perfection, pure gold! Long live the Beatles!
In my opinion the best rock and roll song ever. John Lennon's voice and delivery is fantastic.

The Contenders

11Come Together
This song is excellent. Come on people! How can these be number 12, this song could easily enter in the top 10 beatles song. Everything is just perfect in here, excellent rhythm, terrif bass (probably one of the best from macca) incredible vocals (i think that these is the greatest vocals that john lennon ever recorded) I mean everything in this song is just so catchy!
Great song, heard it so many times and cannot believe how it hasnt aged over the years!
The only really cool Beatles song. They were finally learning how to be cool and moody, like the Stones. Not that this song sounds like the Stones and that the Beatles didn't make other great music, my granny loved them, not the Stones, get my point.
Ps I loved my granny by the way.

12I Am the Walrus
This is a very very and interesting song! PURE POETRY! This is BY FAR the best song in all of the Beatles career and it has a strange of representing the sixties with an understanding of the only possible way of turning a completely misunderstood written language of nonsense into a waterfall of beauty and direction of the minds of geniuses like John Lennon, the greatest and most brilliant songwriter and thinker of ALL TIME! Number ONE!
Great Song, great beat, great meaning (or lack of it depending on how you see it). This should be number one
I just remember it as one of the first songs that was out of the ordinary should have stood on its own rather than a b side. Ideal when you're sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun. Oasis covered it well

13Help!
This song is an amazing song, I seriously don't know how its so low. It probably isn't as popular as the others but seriously to the people coming on here to look for good Beatles songs, listen to this one. I first thought it was alright but then I started to listen to it more, then I realized I had it on replay every time. The lyrics and music is so catchy and good, it fills my ears up with brilliant music. To me this is one of the best Beatles songs, they have made some really great ones but this is just brilliant, John Lennon's voice is just amazing and suits this song so well. The lyrics in this are so meaningful and after a few listens you will be singing along, its so fun and one of the best songs in history, this is one of the reasons why the Beatles were so popular. The thing about this song is that it isn't that long, but that doesn't matter because you can keep replaying it over and over.
omg when I first heard it was like a veil was opened and I could see my future it was just great. I knew what I was gonna be I was gonna be a singer. although I may not be as good as the beatles(noone is) but id try my hardest! I love this song and so shoiuld all the people. omg I wrote a lot I just wanted to write a little but guess this didn't work out. so list to the song pppllll
This song reflects John Lennon and I love him to bits. The voice, the music, the beat is simply undying, they listened to it in the sixties and it is still worth listening to in the 21st century.

14Something

You're asking me will this song go, I don't know, I don't know, but it most certainly should. Too good too not be in the top ten, and I know you could say that about maybe 50 of their songs, but this one especially.

This is the greatest love song period! George is a great composer! The Beatles are the first ROCKERS ever and no other band will come close to them.

Very sad of 15th place. This song must be in top 5 at least. Great music, great rythm.

15I Want to Hold Your Hand

I want to hold your hand is a fun and playful song that is also very cool sounding. This is definitely one of the Beatles best songs. Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney in the album Past Masters Volume 1.

When I was in elementary school, I used to play I Want To Hold Your Hand at the end of the class. It was my way to get girls. Thank you Lennon-McCartney for giving me this song! It's thanks to it that I have a girlfriend now.

I want to say that ringo star you have inspired me and if I cuold here you at least one more time live on stage will be my dreame

16Across the Universe
It's wonderful to think this song has been play into space...
It makes me cry every time I heard it, and it gaves me a lot of bravery.

For rock2metal and evrybody who doesn't know what jai guru deva om means : It's in sanskrit, and it means "thank you guru Dev". The Beatles met this guy during their journey in India, and he had a great infuence on their music and their way too see the life, I think.

(I'm sorry if I made some mistakes, but I'm french, I'm 16, and yeah, I love the Beatles too! )
My all time favourite Beatles song. It's so dreamy. The lyrics are so weird and yet kind of meaningful. I just love everything about it, but I still don't know what jai guru deva means... Think I'm gonna google it...
The Beatles were great! If they were still live, the music would still be great like those times

this song goes to my soul, because is AWESOME!

Love all their songs but this has to be my favorite
sounds different then any other thing they made.
just great.. you will be inspired not by the music but by the way the complex and cruel the song is when it comes to sweetness and tenderness of any band artist
I can see why hey jude's first, I want to hold your hand should be second, and this one third even though it's my favorite.

22The End

As I understand it the last thing that the band ever put down on record and what a fitting way to finish? Just have a listen to the three way guitar jam between paul, john and george. Sheer brilliance and a wonderful example of why this band is so amazing. You could write a whole album around the rhythms and beats in this one snip of two and a half minutes.

gotlbh

This short finale to Abbey Road is the last time the beatles jammed together and what a session! The 3 way guitar joust between john, paul and george is simply awesome. And what better way to sign off after 7 years of genius than with a song like this. Goodbye boys!

23Happiness Is a Warm Gun
I love this song a lot mostly towards the end, but I like how there's four parts in the song: Donated to the National trust, I need a fix cause I'm going down, mother superior jumped the gun and finally Happiness is a warm gun. Paul McCartney also sounds a lot like Queen at the end.
Three great songs in one.
My favourite Beatles song and second favorite song of all time.

24You Never Give Me Your Money

This one song contains more instrumentation and musical variation than most other bands put into an entire album. As I understand it, the song is actually itself a merging of several different unfinished song ideas into one, and when you listen to it you can really hear the different song themes, tempos and rhythms all in there. All told, it creates an incredibly varied and creative sound and is definitely in my opinion an underrated song in the Beatles catalog.

Just give it a listen. Its like a meusli bowl of sounds and rythms blended together. A forerunner to queens masterpiece

One of the most underrated Beatles songs. This is extremely complex melodically. It kicks off the Abbey Road Medley, which could be argued as the Beatles magnum opus. The lyrics are also genius. This song should be in the top 5.

25With A Little Help From My Friends
Fantastic song deserves to be great and is a truly inspirational song from a truly inspirational band 'simply the best'!
Deserves to be higher up the list.
You know, there is a couple beatles songs I like. First off I like prog rock and hard rock more than beatles slow rock/pop but this song really is inspiring it seems to knock off every other beatles song. You will find maybe 1 or 2 songs on an album that are greatly underrated but are amazing songs. Like something for nothing by rush, great song so underrated. personally I think all of rush is underrated. This song is great great rythym good lyrics just blows by all their other stuff.
This is the best song of all time its so nice and it is true you get by with a little help from your friends. It helped me lots not joking this song should be in the top 10 THIS IS THE BEST SONG OF ALL TIME I REPEAT BEST SONG OF ALL TIME. NEED MORE VOTES I BEET YOU GET BY WIT A LITTLE HELP FROM YOUR FRIENDS god I love that song so much AND I NEED SOMEONE TO LOVE TOO its the best vote x

27Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)
Amazing song! Not credited enough! I love how interesting the sitar makes the song as well
The opening sitar tunes are unique! I being from India makes me wonder what amount of genius these guys must have possessed as they seamlessly blended Indian music with american pop style. This work is so hard that we still do not hear Indian music's fusion in mainstream pop styles of today. Long Live The Music Of These Geniuses. Harrison truly ROCKS!
This song is beautiful. A great song, with musical developments everywhere. All in 2.00 mins. Its like a punch in the face. In a good way. But where is If I needed Someone and Love You Too?

28She Said She Said

Nothing out of brit pop could compare - this sets the sound for a future movement and leaves them all in its wake

Drum roles off this planet, trippy guitar. Was this really written in 1965 (or 66? ). Revolver at its very best. Still awesome nearly 50 years later.

Revolver gone bonkers, with paul from another dimension on the bass and ringo stepping off a spaceship to do some trippy drums. Makes other 60s bands sound so dull.

29Tomorrow Never Knows

A difficult song for many to like due to its lack of a recognizable or catchy melody (in my view), but for crazy, creative and experimental musicianship it is simply phenomenal. It is not a song of the 60s. It could equally have been written recently or in the future and still sound relevant. Drum and bass style break beats and a song structured around a single chord, in 1965!

gotlbh

Four guys at the very top of their game. A track that's both simple and complex at the same time. Hard to believe this was only 3 years after "From Me To You"! Great drumming; great everything.

The Best 3 acid minutes ever produced. This is the first really psychedelic, progressive rock so bands like hawhkind Amon Duul and other Krautrocks It was just so ahead like Hallogalo of Neu

30Helter Skelter
This song along with You Really Got Me, Black Sabbath and Born To Be Wild created metal. I guess Deep Purple and Zeppelin helped too.
It started an age of 'Rock n Roll' by AC/DC, Back Sabbeth, Pink Floyd, Wings and various other bands that have hit the big time.
Slash (Guns n' Roses) says this is one of his top 3 songs. Probably the heaviest Beatles song. Very catchy!

33Don't Let Me Down

This is my favourite beatles song it is honestly so beautiful. Not only is the chorus magnificent, but the verses are too! This should be higher on the list.

A real lennon soul bearing moment and some of the best vocals he put down on vinyl. Paul adds a romping bass line to support the singing and the billy preston synth hits a brilliant counterpoint. Shame the split soon afterwards as it showed just how awesome they still were. Check out the video on the roof of the abbey road studio. All these modern four and five piece guitar bands can only dream of such an effortless style and quality.

This has to be the catchiest Beatles song of 'em all..
Too bad it is so underrented/unheard of.

It's really catchy 'It's been a hard days night and I've been working, like a dog.. It's been a hard days night I should be sleeping like alog, and when I get home to you I find the things that you do, you make me feel alright' Soawesome!

38Because

Beautiful teamwork by Paul, John and George. Although each beatle was capable of making great music on his own, they worked together on this one; creating a true masterpiece
-Falafelis

The most beautiful song in the world. So few words, which fit the song better than in any other song. I REALLY don't understand, why it isn't ranked higher. The lyrics tell everything: "Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry". "Love is all, love is you".

40The Long and Winding Road

This song was spoiled in my view by the hamming up the producers gave it on the original let it be release and I didn't really appreciate the song until I heard the scaled back sound on the subsequent naked. Listening to this version, it strikes me as a beautiful song, poignant and with a wonderful harmony of piano and, presumable some kind of loosely strung guitar riff that pipes up between the words. I urge all fans to give this a listen and bring it up the list.

It may be short but it gets its point across very clearly. "Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend. " There's a whole life lesson to be learnt from that slightly mournful, yet humbly optimistic, line.
Most underrated song in history! Lennon-McCartney's greatest collaboration

The young Paul McCartney leaves nothing behind when he screams out the vocals. It is absolutely phenomenal.

She was just seventeen, you know what I mean, and the way she looked was way beyond compare, I couldn't dance with another, when I saw her standing there
An Excellent piece by the Beatles. One of their better early songs.

P.S. I love all Beatles songs equally
This song is another classic rock n' roll song created by the Beatles, and it's a great dancing song that will get you singing and dancing. McCartney did a great job singing this and no one else could do it better. Over all, this is a great song and you should dance to it some time.

63I've Just Seen a Face
Simply the best song ever, country, rock and roll the combination is beautiful, indeed, a Beatles song. Only they can do stuff this way!
A far underrated song that always cheers me up :) I stumbled upon it a couple of days ago when I bought the "Help! " album, which is, in my opinion, their greatest. A lovely melody and beautiful lyrics.
One of my absolute favorites! 62?! Should be in the top 10 at least.

74Octopus's Garden
I can't believe this song is placed here!... This song really takes you to an octopus' garden! The song is simple yet so deep and peaceful.. Makes me happy every time I hear it..
I think that this song should at least be in the top 20s this is The Beatles best song ever right next to Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane what were you guys think in putting this masterpiece song in the 70s there is something wrong with you guy's brains or something. Come on you guys can do a whole lot better than this I just know you can
Peace out

When I heard this song I was taken into a new dimension. This is by far the best Beatles song there is. I didn't know it was possible to have so much love and admiration for something. Simply a masterpiece

79I'm Only Sleeping

I personally think that this is an amazing song. It's not one of their more popular songs because it's pretty simple, but I still think it's beautiful. I love the expressions John uses in his voice. "I'm Only Sleeping" is probably one of my favorite songs by the Beatles. Also, one of my favorite bands, The Vines, remade this song, and did a fairly decent job at it. Even my dad, who is a Beatles fanatic and flower child, really liked their cover of the song.

Defines psychedelia along with Tomorrow Never Knows and Lucy In The Sky... It is actually one of my favourite songs let alone Beatles songs...

82You're Going to Lose That Girl

This is absolutely, without a doubt, one of the most underrated Beatles song EVER! It's catchy, fun, addictive, etc. This I just an amazing song. Why is it so low? Come on, it deserves a place in the top 20 at least...

84You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
I dunno why but this song tears my heart out. It should be among the top twenty at least! It's got awesome lyrics, and I totally relate to it.
Cannot believe how low down this song is. Along with norwegian wood, blackbird, I've just seen a face and we can work it out, long and winding road they r top 20 songs at least. One of Lennons best ever.
I've heard all the supposed best beatles song but this one was the best one period, even better than Hey Jude, I prefer Mcartney overall but this lennon song is definitely the best I have heard.

86Two of Us

This is one of the most beautiful Beatles songs. It almost seems to be about the Beatles themselves and their imminent breakup. The harmonies, the guitar, the lyrics - this song is not only a tear-jerker but a relevant masterpiece.

"I dig a pygmy by Charles Hawtrey and the deaf aids. Phase one in which Doris gets her oats. " Oh, John.

This song is beautiful and wonderfully harmonic. One of the only songs not in need of re-recording on Let it Be.

89Baby, You're a Rich Man

This is 62nd? Unbelievable. This is a great song, and if it's sixty second, I can only imagine how great the songs that have been voted ahead must be. I love this song. Jo

Baby you're a rich man is a cool and funky song. Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney in the album Magical Mystery Tour.

90I'll Follow the Sun

The chords in this song are absolutely magnificent! The song is beautiful and really showcases the early Beatles' spirit. It's a song that should never be overlooked.

91I Should Have Known Better

Every Beatles top ten list has the same smarmy, deeply meaningful, I need to critique the world selection. There were a lot of us who thought Eleanor Rigby was the end of the Beatles. There was a time when every young man wanted to be like the Beatles and every young woman wanted to be with the Beatles. They were a great rock and roll band early on.

Such an intoxicating blend of melody, harmonica and lyrics that capture the innocent thrill, wonder and excitement of your first love.

Such an amazingly, simple song. I love it! I love The Beatles so much! All their songs are great. This one is a particular favorite of mine. And it was in their movie A Hard Days Night.

93Eight Days a Week
More innovation with the idea of a fade in to the start of the song. A nice collaboration that bounces along. Surprised it hasn't popped up sooner but it shows the depth of the beatles legacy

94Please Please Me
The one song of theirs where I can't (no matter what) listen to it only once. The harmonies are phenomenal. "*****"!

BKAllmighty

It's the best.
I love this song, it's awesome!
I voted for this although in my list it wouldn't be my first choice (It's much better than any songs from other bands but since The Beatles has so many great songs, this wouldn't even fit to the top 20 in my opinion) but since it's ranked so low, It hink this song really needs votes.
