Rules: Vote for your LEAST favorite song. This poll will be open for 24 hours, at which point the song with the most votes will be eliminated from the competition and the next round will be started. This process will continue until only one song remains in the 'Please Please Me' draw, and we move on to the next LP. And so on and so forth.

In the event of a tie, the tied songs will be eliminated together, UNLESS it is a tie between the final two songs in any draw, in which case the voting time will be extended.

Once again, if any of you don't have access to this LP and would like to hear the songs you don't know, tell me in this thread and I will link you up via PM to a zip file containing the whole album.

Let's up the voting for people - the more participation, the better!

Hello Goodbye is sin.

Strawberry Fields Forever

Strawberry Fields Forever

Are you high, sir?

Wait, if you were high, there's no way that you would have voted for SFF (or I Am The Walrus for that matter )

I'm as sane as the come

 

[LemonMelon]

Here's a question for you...why haven't you actually voted yet?

 

[LMP]

Baby You're a Rich Man.

Strawberry Fields or I Am the Walrus better win.

 

[SeattleVertigo]

Flying.

Cool tune, but since it's an instrumental, it's expendable.

Your Mother Should Know, Baby You're A Rich Man and Blue Jay Way are next.

Then all hell breaks lose.

 

[Lila64]

^perhaps

<< All You Need Is Love

 

[gump]

Flying

Strawberry Fields Forever better win...

 

[intedomine]

My dream Final Three would be Strawberry Fields Forever, Magical Mystery Tour and I AM The Walrus....


I voted Your Mother Should Know, though I like every song on the album a fair bit....

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

You pretty much summed it up IMO... I've never been much of a fan of Fool On A Hill either...

In fact, I dare say that I'm not a big fan of allot of Paul's work, although he does have several tunes on the White Album which I love...

 

[phanan]

Hello Goodbye is sin.

It's not the best song on here, but it's certainly not the worst, either.

Flying is an easy choice.

 

[LemonMelon]

You win!

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

1st Prize????

What is it?

A coupon for a free alter!

Use it to vote for Fool On The Hill!

I said this in another thread but I'm going to make one called "Serious" or "I'm Serious" so that when I'm having a conversation I can say:

"Allow me to be Serious" and then post under my alter...

That would be hot...

Use the coupon! I want to have a Serious©(omgpun) conversation.

 

[cdisantis83]

Flying gets my vote.

 

[Lancemc]

I think it's pretty obvious that Strawberry Fields is going to win. Kinda like how A Day In The Life was a shoe-in for Sgt. Peppers.

 

[corianderstem]

Flying.

Just because it's the only song in the Beatles catalogue attributed to all four members doesn't mean it's any good.

 

[LemonMelon]

It's mostly because of that ridiculous John Lennon bias that this forum has.

In this case though, it happens to be right.

True. I happen to be a McCartney man myself. But SFF is easily the best song on this ablum.

 

[reptile]

...now i voted for (or against) flying, i can take no futher part in this .all classics in there own ways...these songs are so much better than most of pepper..... ........wait....i think i may be able to lose fool on the hill, but thats it......

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

wait....i think i may be able to lose fool on the hill, but thats it......

 

[Tiger Edge]

Has anyone else here seen Magical Mystery Tour?

It's like an hour of insanity, I love it.
The ending is the best with the matching white tuxedos and the dancing...

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Meh... I'm not a fan

It was just too weird for me I guess, and I'm usually a pretty weird guy

It was kind of like all the bad Monty Python sketches on a bus with too much colour or something...

I dunno, not my cup of tea. That being said, bad Beatles is still good.

 

[LemonMelon]

Here's the movie:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
Part 6
Part 7
Part 8

I already feel stoned just looking at it.

Ohhh it's on bitches...

 

[XHendrix24]

I think this one should be much closer of a competition than Sgt. Peppers.

Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, MMT, I Am The Walrus...

This album is so awesome it kills me sometimes.
