Hey Jude, Here Comes The Sun, Eleanor Rigby, Penny Lane, and All You Need Is Love comprise my top 5 - beyond that I find it very hard to choose as they are all so good.

Rain and The Inner Light were both B-sides (Paperback Writer and Lady Madonna respectively) and were not included on any original album.

They are available on the compilation 'Past Masters Volume 2' album only I think, though I might be wrong.

Yeah, I suppose 10 was somewhat restrictive considering we have 241 to choose from

I can say that We can work it out is my number 1, but I'd struggle to pick 9 from the rest, to be honest.

Not sure I could name ten favourites, there's so many great tracks that they can't all stand out and so it's impossible to rank them. Here are a few of my favourites;

1. Here Comes the Sun
2. Something
3. While My Guitar Gently Weeps
4. Eight Days A Week
5. Let It Be
6. The Long and Winding Road

As you can probably tell by the top 3, I'm definitely a fan of George Harrison. I wouldn't claim he's the best/most important Beatle, I know that's not really the case, but he's my favourite.

1. Happiness Is A Warm Gun
2. Across The Universe
3. I Am The Walrus
4. Strawberry Fields Forever
5. Don't Let Me Down
6. Come Together
7. I'm So Tired
8. Norwegian Wood
9. Ballad of John and Yoko
10. Tomorrow Never Knows

Just missing out :- I'm Only Sleeping, Cry Baby Cry, Dig A Pony, I Want You (She's So Heavy), Hey Bulldog, In My Life.....

John Lennon's creative input during the Beatles still blows my mind. The rawness and realness of it just excites me so much.
