Maybe because summer looks like it might have arrived, but I love Here Comes the Sun. George Harrison take a bow.

If I feel.

Blackbird.

I'm a massive beetles and Lennon fan.

The list is endless but

Get back has to be my favourite, I just love the rift and the drumming.

Probably closely followed by

Here comes the sun

She's leaving home

Don't let me down

Day in the life

Getting better

I could happen to agree with you there, there's been some great Beatles covers over the years.

I quite liked Shirley basseys cover last week of something!

Another great song I'd forgotten!

Or the banshees cover of dear prudence, another great song of theirs I'd forgotten lol

People overlook the small matter that The Beatles come together (SWIDT) in 1958 and didnt just appear in 1963. Many years of hard graft honing their undoubted musical talent ( dare i say genius?).

I actually listed that one earlier.

Flukes of nature come along every now and then and Lennon and McCartney were quite simply the best.

Great writers write about what they know and mix it with heresy and imagination.

I remember listening to Lennon's plastic ono band album for the first time when I was about 20 and I still think it's the pinnacle of great writing full of every emotion with touches of beauty and poetry over laced along side sadness and madness.

Sadly taken away far to young.
