Top Ten Songs by the Beatles

Sure, We Love Them All. But Here's My List of the Top 10 Beatles Tracks Ever to Grace an LP

Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Revolver, Hard Day’s Night, Help!, Magical Mystery Tour, The White Album. The list of timeless and revolutionary albums seems almost unreal. How could one band have so many hits?

I’d probably have trouble picking out the top 10 Beatles albums lent alone songs. So acknowledging that it’s enough of a task just to pick out the top ten hits, there’s no way I can go so far as to rank
 them.

With that in mind, here’s my list in no particular order. (And please don’t respond with angry emails informing me which Beatles gem I left off the list. I’m aware some hits are going to be left behind in the dust of my all too cursory list.)

1.Twist and Shout
Why it made the list: This pop rock anthem has enough snap, crackle and pop to make a mummy move. Well…that might be stretching it slightly, but it’s certainly catchy.

It’s one of those immediately recognizable songs that sneak into feel good films like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (think the parade scene when Ferris takes over a float and Ferris’ unsuspecting dad dances in his high-rise office.)

It puts a smile on my face after the first familiar bar, and that alone is reason enough to put it on my list.

2.A Hard Day’s Night
Why it made the list: Come on. Any song that gets an entire movie named after it deserves to make the top list.

"Any song that gets an entire movie named after it deserves to make the top list." By this logic, shouldn't Yellow Submarine also be on this list?

The Beatles are legendary! I can say they're my all-time favorite band,and I'm only 15! I know very word to every song. For those who diss them are th peopl who like Lil' Wayne. PUH-LEEZ! You call that music. It's auto-tone,I could do it.

Meaning no disrespect, but why do you waste your time on a Beatles' lovers site when you don't even like them? Isn't that just a waste of your time?

I very much enjoyed your top ten favorites and why they were. Of course we love them all and have our favorites for different reasons. I would have to add, "Nowhere Man," "I've Just Seen a Face," "Girl," (guess what my favorite album is?) also "What You're Doin," "Girl," okay, it's impossible for me to narrow it to ten.
