The "Fab 4"

On the Sirius/XM Beatles channel, fans are invited to submit their Fab 4 choices - their 4 favorite Beatles songs. Some fans are picked to present their picks on air. I listened to several today. "Rain" seemed to be a popular choice,
If by some slim chance I could present 4 of my very favorites, they would be:
There's a Place
Yes it Is
Martha My Dear
Old Brown Shoe
What would you all pick?

"(Brian) got into this really touching music with songs like 'In My Room', and 'Good Vibrations' was amazing. The melodies are so beautiful, almost perfect. I began to realize he was one of the most gifted writers of our generation." - Paul Simon

Good call, E. Four is a nice compact number, particularly if you're not the world's biggest Beatles fan.
I had a think about this while walking the dog. The first two came to mind immediately. If I had to choose just one, it would be "The Word". "There's A Place" is one of the most perfect songs ever committed to wax. Believe it or not, I remember hearing "Yes It Is" for the first time a few years ago after being sent a stunning live version by Don Henley. And "Savoy Truffle" is a great lesser-known George gem, with some fantastic massed sax lines.

This is basically impossible, but here goes:
Girl
In My Life
Nowhere Man
Norwegian Wood
Might as well stick to the same album for all 4.

I agree, this is impossible!
Lady Madonna
Hey Jude
Day Tripper
Penny Lane
Those songs come to mind, I think they would work well together in any order.

I usually say Paul & John - equally talented songwriters. Despite being mainly Paul fan, John's written good songs which I like equally with Paul's.
