don't alter quotes.

 

[U2Man]

don't alter quotes.

Hey wait, actually I didn't alter any quote, I just let something out. I should have put [...] and [...] around it though.

Anyway, sorry khanada, I thought you would take it more lightheartedly

 

[namkcuR]

So where are we with this?

Should we do it or not?

 

[U2Man]

So where are we with this?

Should we do it or not?

Since my vote counts 10x as much as khanada's, I think we should do it.

So, I think 'Yes' is winning right now...

 

[U2Man]

Alright, ruckman, hurry up, make the decision before another freak comes in here and says "NO!!!", lol

 

[corianderstem]

You can count my random uninterpretable comment as a vote for "yes."

 

[namkcuR]

You can count my random uninterpretable comment as a vote for "yes."

ok

 

[namkcuR]

Any more commentary/opinion is welcome.

I'm leaning towards doing this and starting it soon.

 

[MacPhistoPT]

You can count my random uninterpretable comment as a vote for "yes."

same

 

[LMP]

I don't know if I'm 100% with this yet, there's just too much to declare a Number 1 song.

So put me in the fence for this one.

 

[corianderstem]

I just want to see it happen for the fistfights that will break out.

I have no worries that I'll disagree so vehemently with the "winner" that my entire worldview will change.

 

[the tourist]

I vote no, as it would save us the absolute embarassment of picking a McCartney song as the winner over Lennon masterpieces like Strawberry Fields Forever, I Want You (She's So Heavy), A Day in the Life, or I Am the Walrus.

Lennon didn't write I Want You (She's So Heavy) -- George did.

 

[GibsonGirl]

I'd go with yes if it weren't for the fact that the competition would take forever! So I guess I'm on the fence as well.

 

[U2girl]

Sure.

I've never read a better description of my contributions to Interference!

 

[angelordevil]

Yes!


Tomorrow Never Knows

*cough*

 

[impy13]

Or we could have a "Worst McCartney Old-Tymey Style Song Survivor"

I'd participate in that one.




But hell, count me as a yes just because I'm interested in how the thing would pan out.

Lennon didn't write I Want You (She's So Heavy) -- George did.

It is actually credited as a Lennon/McCartney song but it was written by Lennon for Yoko.

August 20, 1969 was whe last recording session ever with all four Beatles together in a studio. The very last track recorded by the band as a unit was "I Want You (She's So Heavy)".

 

[XHendrix24]

Do it.

Even though A Day in the Life is obviously the best.

 

[Westport]

Thumbs up here. Should be interesting at least.

Going to see the Beatles' Love show in Vegas tomorrow night.

[Lila64]

Because of the volume of their work, perhaps it should end up as a top 5 or 10, depending how you start or your voting criteria? Will it be every CD or certain songs or 1 song per CD ( )

Is that the Cirque de Soleil (sp?) show? Hope you come back and post a review

 

[gareth brown]

Tommorow Never Knows.

 

[phanan]

A "Worst Beatles Song" might be interesting.

"Number nine, number nine..."

 

[Zoots]

nam, you've got my vote.

 

[namkcuR]

nam, you've got my vote.

Thanks!

Thank you.

I like Harrison, but he could never in a million years write something so perfectly simple as IWY(SSH). And I guarantee that the ferociously menacing guitar work on the conclusion of that track is Lennon as well. He pulled that shit out of the maelstrom of hell, something Georgie didn't tend to look into.

Harrison's version of simple is Old Brown Shoe...which is pretty sucky.
