Best Beatles Song Survivor - 'Abbey Road' Draw - Round 2

[LemonMelon]

Mean Mr Mustard should go. Absolutely atrocious song.

False. Its bass line alone gets it through the next 4 rounds, IMO.

[Lila64]

oh, here we go again. Let me get prepared

What the hell's wrong with Come Together? Is it the lyric "come together right now over me?"

Nope, not at all. I just really, really don't like it. Maybe I've heard it too many times. I'm not a big fan of the melody, the lyrics, or the plodding bass line.

Maybe someday I'll grow to like it again.

 

[xaviMF22]

you gotta love Come together's nonsense lyrics

Exactly! Come Together = boring

 

[namkcuR]

I can't believe some of the things that are being said about Come Together.

The intro to Come Together is the greatest intro to an album ever.

The lyrics that make no sense are great because they're fun to sing along to...the whole premise that Lennon was intentionally trying to mindfuck all of us by writing lyrics that made no sense while making it look like he could've been trying to make them mean SOMETHING is brilliant.

There's an Adam Clayton quote that says something along the lines of, 'rock'n'roll isn't something you can buy in a record store - it's an attitude'.

I think Come Together just OOZES that attitude.

ONE THING I CAN TELL YOU IS YOU GOT TO BE FREE, COME TOGEEETHER, RIGHT NOOOOW, OVER ME!

Come Together =

namckuR - Summed it up perfectly.

Yes, it isn't fabulous, and it can be hard to listen to over and over but SURELY it is better than some of the other very average offerings on this album. Surely.

Who is voting for She's So Heavy? Awesome song!

 

[1stepcloser]

Mean Mr Mustard. No thanks.

 

[Zoots]

I love all the "who's voting for such and such song " comments! It's called opinion, people!

 

[LemonMelon]

Exactly.

Please let us have ours about theirs.

 

[Zoots]

Exactly.

Please let us have ours about theirs.

Ohh you little rascal you!

 

[corianderstem]

I stand by my loathing of Come Together, and I don't care what you all say. It doesn't make my taste suspect, and it doesn't mean I don't appreciate Lennon's brilliance, thank you very much.

Now ya'll have a really nice Saturday.

Shut it

 

[Lancemc]

I had the craziest fucking dream tonight. I dreamt that John Lennon came here from heaven to ask me all about the state of the world now and shit. Then we played pool, and went to a sex shop where he made me help him steal shit.

Good times all around I guess.

Polythene Pam? You're kidding me.
