"Love you to" - the boring of the bunch.

This album is going to be very hard. But this first round will probably be the only round I don't have to think really hard about it. It's a great song, but

(https://i.imgur.com/UPHkEIP.jpg)

love ya to

Count me as one of those who doesn't live in a Yellow Submarine

I Want to Tell You.

Edit: It's great, but it'd be no wonder if it was ended up on Help! or Rubber Soul.

Dr. Robert

Dr. Robert

"Doctor Robert" is jolly good! :3d I just like that "we-ell we-ell we-ell". Bizarre to see it voted 1st round, my friends. :bw

It's not bad, but not great IMO. Certainly better than Yellow Submarine, which I'm actually surprised is doing a lot better than this

Yes, it isn't great & it's better than YS but they're both good. Playing Revolver tracks, "Love you to" is the worst.

After the first few rounds this is going to be worse than Rubber Soul.
Have to go with Love You To. It's just plain boring in my opinion,

Now you're talking. :3d

Love You To.

You are right. That moment always stands out... Hmmmm.. I may change my vote. I'll have to think about it...

Love you to.

It's between Love You To and For No One. I'll go with For No One.

After about 3 rounds this is going to get really hard.

Think. You've got time. :police:

Agree with this.

For the record, love Love You To. Has some really nice sitar playing on it

Rei, what's your favorite Indian George song? Mine - "Inner Light".

Yellow Submarine. For the record, the weak link on Revolver isnt such a bad thing.

Alright. I'm changing my vote to Love You To. That middle bit of Doc Rob is its saving grace.

Love you to

I'd probably actually go for that too, along with Blue Jay Way (which has Indian influences even if it uses Western instruments)

That's the spirit! :3d

This is the album I consider to be the end of the Beatles v.1 (i.e. the moptops).

I Want to Tell You

Yellow submarine

I'm stickin' with gettin' rid of Doctor Robert.

Yellow Submarine

I've always thought Yellow Submarine was a big of a square peg on Revolver, and would've made a better stand alone single. 

yellow submarine

Yellow Submarine is one of their defining songs, but it doesn't come close to everything else on here.

For No One

Cool, we destroyed LYT. :police:

"She said she said"

I can't vote off Yellow Submarine yet. It is so quintessentially British. It's iconic.

Sorry George. I have to tell you that I am voting "I Want To Tell You" off.

You guys who are voting off "For No One" are breaking my heart. That is in my top three for this album.  :'(  :lol

Ditto "Penny Lane" & "Martha My Dear".

It's definitely a good song, just that the competition is keen.

What gets me is people voting for She Said She Said. That's in my top 3 for this album!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPLnytJjIHM

2 SMiLE-addict: You quote pixletwin. I didn't mention FNO.

There's definitely going to be a lot of this. Honestly, there are probably only 4 songs on this album that I would be surprised by someone listing one of them in their top 3. Even then, I'd only be remotely surprised and I'd probably think it was cool. Arguably the strongest album 1-14 ever made.

I understand people voting for Yellow Submarine, but it's really annoying me!  ;D I used to kind of dismiss this song when I was younger as "uncool" and not belonging on Revolver, but that same 'me' also considered For No One an after-thought (now I consider it a masterpiece!). It probably wasn't rockin' enough for me as a teen. I also considered I Want To Tell You a bit of a favorite. I connected with it. I still love the guitar lick and Paul's Indian-style vocalization at the end, but now I'm appreciating other songs more. It's funny, I just listened to the album a few times and made a list from favorite to least, but every time I listened to a song I'd look at it's placement on the list and think, "nah, that can't be right" and I'd want to bump it up 5 spot! :lol and I'd just go round and round like that...

I vote for I Want To Tell You. I'm far too mesmerized by George's harmony vocal in Yellow Submarine (and everything else about it). Anyone think it's too uncool for Revolver? I think it's badass to include it! Not to mention Side 1 is a collection of different genres/styles, in that sense it fits. And it's iconic...

Yellow Submarine....

Disappointed about Love You To, thought it was one of the album's highlights

I feel the same way about For No One. :'(

Might as well go ahead and do it, doesn't look like it will last long, anyway:  "Yellow Submarine"

Revolver had George's strongest set of songs up to this point.

Yes I realized that, didn't mean to imply you were voting it down, just saying I was surprised somebody was voting it down.

Definitely in my Revolver top 3.

This is the album I consider to be the end of the Beatles v.1 (i.e. the moptops).

I Want To Tell You

Doctor Robert

To me, Yellow Submarine was the obvious weak link (even if it's still a great song), so it's going to be difficult here.

But, I'm gonna go with

Got to Get You Into My Life

i want to tell you

Smb. told pixletwin to tell you & everybody that we tell in the written form we vote against "I Want To Tell You".

For No One

Time for I Want to Tell You to go. This is getting more and more painful every round.

Good Day Sunshine

Doctor Robert

You guys, I Want to Tell You is such a good song...

Though I admit it's not the best song on the record, it's probably my favorite.

Doctor Robert again. No picture or anything. Just Doctor Robert. It's painful, but he's a doctor, so he'll be alright.

I like the piano on I Want To Tell You. I like it's chunky dissonance.... but.... I do like the "Well-well-well you're feeling fine" moment more.

If Doc R had been on Rubber Soul, it absolutely would have outlived my earlier castaways from that album... but here... yeesh, what it's up against.

Well I'm glad my persuasive skills work. :3d

Good day sunshine

Again, I Want to Tell You has to go.

All the songs on Revolver are good IMO :)

This is the album I consider to be the end of the Beatles v.1 (i.e. the moptops).

Though I do miss 'Well, Well, Well', I have to tell Doctor Robert to go this time.

I should've expected it to fall so soon, but damn it

Doctor Robert this time, no funny stuff

Doctor Robert

Good Day Sunshine

Good Bye Sunshine

Again voting for Got To Get You Into My Life.  Again, not a slight against Sir Paul, but I just think all the other survivors are better.

For No One, still.

Wow, "Good Day Sunshine", "Got to Get You" - you gotta be kidding. These are solid gold. So-lid-go-eld.

I'm buzzing today "Doctor Robert". Adult Child, hope you resume the fun picture posting.

Keep in mind, with an album like Revolver, every vote is against a sold gold classic.

Time for Doctor Robert to retire.
Putter around in the garden or something.

I will resume the fun picture posting as soon as Doctor Robert gets voted off. It's a great song, but I'm pissed that I Want To Tell You got voted off so early and I genuinely think it's Doctor Robert's fault. Didn't give that song the right medicine.

Good Day Shunshine

Dislike "She Said She Said".

Good Day Sunshine

Good Day Sunshine

she said she said

She said she said

I can't believe people are voting against She Said She Said. That might be my #1 on the album.

Anyway, I vote For No One again.

Got To Get You Into My Life

Tell me about it. Can't believe people vote against 3 really good Paul songs.

"Good Day Sunshine" - Sun continues to set, slower than I'd hoped.

I'm a vampire!  Get outta here sunshine.

I need a Doctor, get Robert back in here!

Goodbye, Good Day Sunshine ;D

Thanks, Watamushi.  I needed that.  Now if we can get pixletwin in here right quick with that tally, it'll be gone, and I can go out for the night.

For No One

Got to Get You Into My Life

Y'all, this is nearly an impossible task. These remaining songs are all classics.

With reluctance, I pick Got to Get You Into My Life.
Fun song, I turn up the volume when it plays on the radio, it makes me happy, but is missing just a bit of the wow factor, as Pixletwin posted earlier.

got to get you into my life..  :'(

Got to Get You into My Life.

She Said She Said

she said she said

For no one

And Your Bird Can Sing

Got To Get You Outta My Life

I really do like this song, especially 1:49 onward. Love the guitar that comes in. My only problem with this song is that I sometimes find the trumpets/saxophones irritating. They are distractingly prominent in the mix. I don't think I noticed it as much until I started listening to the mono version, because in the stereo version they are panned to the right. The mono outro is longer and more painful. Which is too bad because it's cool hearing some Paul vocals unheard on the stereo version.

"She Said She Said" should be dumped veerry long long time ago. Extremely extraordinarily excruciatingly boring useless pointless dreck. There, I said it.

I guess "She Said She Said" is my least favorite though all the songs left are really good.

I'm Only Sleeping

i'm only sleeping???? really arhhhhh!   :o

"Got To Get You Into My Life"

She Said She Said

Be careful, Rick!  I love that song, too.  Don't want pix to think your complaint is a vote.

Then again, I'll say it too.   How Could somebody vote that song off?  Capitol did the same
thing taking it off the Revolver album in America.

I'm Only Sleeping is top 3 for me!

I dislike it as well but since it's not going to go, maybe join us & vote "She Said She Said"? :D

Can't believe you folks dump such positive bright jazzy song with cool backing track which Paul sings with energy. Can any of you tell what's so cool about "She Said" that you favor it better than this Paul song?

1. The drumming is some of Ringo's best. Ringo himself was particularly proud of his drumming on this song. It's possibly the prime example in all of rock music of drumming *just slightly* behind the beat, which adds to the sort-of "lazy" feel to the song.
2. Personally, in the bridge ("When I was a boy..."), the descending arpeggios of the guitar play against the vocal melody in a way that sends shivers up my spine.
3. The "call and response" of the vocal line and guitar in the verses just works brilliantly.

Between #2 and #3 this is one of the best interactions between vocals and guitar in all of pop music IMO.

Here we go:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/She_Said_She_Said

Thank you, nice detailed answer. We'll agree to disagree then.

this battle could get nasty haha, i may have to have a couple of 'count to 10' moments before
badgering other voters for their choices (slowly) 1.....2......3......

Ok. This is where it starts to get really painful. It's a toss between two great songs. "She Said, She Said" or "And Your Bird Can Sing".... I think Bird is just slightly better because the backing track is a little more interesting for me. All that scale work.

"She Said, I know what it's like to be voted off of Survivor".

And Your Bird Can Sing

Good thinking.  Me too.

Too tough from here on out.  I threw a dart at the list.  Couldn't go with that pick,
love it too much.

Put the titles on a spin card.  Landed on "For No One"  Color me blue.

Tomorrow Never Knows

As it stands now:

Bird has 6
Tomorrow has 6
No One has 3
Sleep and Here both have 1.

Next NEW vote for either Bird or Tomorrow will decide the round.

VOTE VOTE VOTE!!!

 :o

Neither should be eliminated at this stage. I actually prefer AYBCS, but think tomorrow is more significant so will say AYBCS.

You're kidding? What does it matter if it's significant. If you prefer AYBCS, save it. This is about least favorite track, not the significance & other rubbish.

It's complicated. I like some really bad music. I also like some really simple music. Some music, I like just because it's fun. But I like those things as disposables. I could easily do without any of it and replace it with something else just as fun or whatever. Other music, I like in a deeper, more satisfactory way. And it's really important to me. I think Tomorrow was an essential stepping stone for that, while AYBCS is more disposable, pretty as that one line is and fun as the guitars are.

Yes I see you're very complicated. So this is about stepping stone, right. ::) Not actual preference.

Yes. A preference may not be a favorite. I mean, take ABBA. I may prefer to listen to ABBA song X to  "Surf's Up" on a day to day basis. Because Surf's Up can be a little much - it requires my full attention and I can't dance to it.  But if ABBA song X became unavailable forever, for some reason, it would not affect me much. I'll just listen to ABBA song Y instead.  But if Surf's Up vanished off the earth, I'd have a bit of a meltdown. Because when I do listen to it, it's important.

Your words "I actually prefer AYBCS". Why not go with "Tomorrow" then? I really don't get it.

I explained further above.

But this is game. These songs will not vanish. You can easily go listen "Tomorrow". What's the problem if you prefer AYBCS? Pick TNK.

Now I'm listening to them. I really like the "of the beginning" part of TNK. It makes the song satisfying.

& what's the consensus? Now suddenly you prefer - read prefer, not stepping stone stuff! - TNK after saying you like AYBCS?

Please quit taking this so seriously.It's just a game.

And if this helps decide things...my vote goes for And Your Bird Can Sing. TNK is one of my 10 favorite songs by anybody.

We discuss, I try to figure out why tell stepping stone matters. Is it bad question? Emily said she prefers AYBCS but thinks "Tomorrow" is more important so she saves it. BUT THIS IS NOT about importance of music. It's about PREFERENCE.

Can't believe. Of ALL people single me out. I can't even discuss things. I didn't insult anybody. Your vote doesn't count because Emily was 1st. I still wait for explanation from her.

Goodness. I really didn't mean to start a kerfluffle. Simply, in an easy, fun way, I prefer AYBCS, but I take tomorrow more seriously as part of an important body of music. So in that way, I prefer tomorrow. If I were to pick a real favorite, all things considered, it would be tomorrow because it has more significance to me.
I shouldn't have said anything, of course.

Yes, but you did start it. ::) It could be avoided if you just said "If I were to pick a real favorite, all things considered, it would be tomorrow because it has more significance to me." Without this stepping stone super-duper important stuff.

& I disagree & tbh, don't get your logic. If you like lightweight song & prefer it, what does it matter if the other song you like a bit less is important? That's mind-boggling, really. If I like fun-not fun songs - THAT'S my preference. F.ex. I REALLY-REALLY-REALLY like "At My Window" - BEST BBs song. If it stood against "Surf's Up", I'll EASILY pick AMW & wouldn't care less about importance-significance of the latter.

Indeed. I didn't think through the impact of my off-the-cuff comment. I apologize.

I'm not singling you out at all. I was basically saying to relax and not take it so seriously. I wasn't even directing it at anybody specifically.

Nah...you're as entitled to your own views and opinions as much as anybody here. And for the record , I get your reasoning.  If someone had asked me to pick what the better song was between Lahaina Aloha and In the Back of My Mind, I'd *easily* pick the latter. If they'd ask me which I prefer, I'd easily pick the *former*. If it was an elimination styled thread like this one, though, I'd have to seriously think about it and it would not be so easy at all.

i hear what Emily is saying, i think i understand what she means.  
it's like comparing 'surfin usa' to 'cabinessence'.  which is better?
surfin usa for it's simple catchy melody and great vocals, or cabinessence
for its full luster of harmonies and vocal parts and intricate arrangements.
your gonna get two sides to that, simple verses complex.
these Beatles songs are difficult to throw out, cause they are so good!
 

2Emily: Apology accepted. Next time be more blunt, without these cloudy explanations.

2Billy: OK. Regarding your reply to Emily, I did not, obviously, say she shouldn't be entitled to her opinioins but she wasn't very clear & I asked she clarifies. Which is what our dialog really was about. Nobody took it seriously, not from my side definitely.

NOW, back to topic, folks! :police:

You made my point a whole lot better than I was  able to! :D

I didn't read it like that. In your case, you can't choose between the 2. In Emily's, she knew right away what to choose but didn't say, instead went on some tangent about stepping stone being deciding point etc.

Taste is subjective. Everybody knows. We musn't be objective about taste & think about some song's importance. Preference is preference. Btw, even that objectivitity regarding TNK's significance is quite subjective. Your significance is my "pretentious song albeit with great Ringo drumming". Yep, that's what I say about TNK.

She DID choose..she said

She said she ACTUALLY prefers AYBCS. But then weirdly still voted against it. Preference is one thing. Significance (TNK) is different. Which is what I tried to clarify. Why it must be shut. I asked valid question. Why not leave it at that & let us discuss it further? It doesn't hurt really.

Thank you for breaking the tie. :)

This is the album I consider to be the end of the Beatles v.1 (i.e. the moptops).

Tomorrow Never Knows

Hey, everybody who can't stand TNK, vote for it! Help to save great poetic Paul song "For No One", for god's sake! Where's everybody?? I'm glad that lots of posters with me voted for TNK. Thanks, you're really great! What about the others? Type "Tomorrow Never Knows" fast!

Tomorrow Never Knows.

I think this is a vote against TNK. I'll count it as such unless UW tells me otherwise.  :police:

No, Rei voted every round before IOS.

I have three favorites.  They are by John, George and Paul.  Ms. Rigby ain't in the bunch.  Looks like I may not get my way
without some serious help from the voters.

As much as I love it, I vote for "Tomorrow Never Knows" - a masterpiece for sure, but I see no way
to save it.  The big snore is my favorite, anyway.

Now, will John make it into the final?  Only tomorrow will know.  Don't treat John the way Capitol did.

i'm surprised the 'one chord wonder' 'tnk' has come this far to be honest!

You're VERY right. It's not masterwork. Big deal, tape loops. ::) Aside from Ringo's cool drumming, it's juuust another Beatles song.

yeah, it's amazing what tape looks and one chord can do.  clever i guess, but it's time for it to move on  ;)

No, it's simultaneously a vote against I'm Only Sleeping and a wish to see Tomorrow Never Knows survive to fight another round

I said it 1st. pixletwin already took it to notes. :police:

ok, now this is hard.  i really love all these so much.  Those chord changes in 'here' were so fun
to learn as a budding guitarist.  taxman is one of the best Beatles tracks ever.  I have a personal
love for 'only sleeping', so Elenor, has to go for a hike.

Eleanor Rigby

I'm Only Sleeping needs to be put to sleep.  Sorry, horse.

im only sleeping

Gulp.
Here, There and Everywhere

(Sorry, Jerry and Lynn - friends who played this song at their wedding back in the day)

Taxman.

Here There And Everywhere

Tally is tonight. So far we only have 13 votes. It would be a real shame if there was no Lennon to represent in a top 3 (although my #1 pick is not the Lennon song).

Still some hours left to vote folks.

Vote vote

VOTE!  :3d

"Here There and Everywhere"

In reply 209 you said that Ms. Rigby "ain't in the bunch" of favorite 3 songs. Vote for "Eleanor Rigby" then.

Here, There and Everywhere.

Before playing this round, I'd never think & never seen people having such strong dislike towards "Here There & Everywhere".
Can any of you - KDS, pixletwin, NOLA, B.E., Emily - explain what such beautiful song lacks that snoozefest "I'm Only Sleeping" has in spades? I'm very curious. Tell.

I'm Only Sleeping

You didn't see strong dislike because there isn't any. It's lasted very far on a great album, hasn't it? It's one of my favorite Paul songs ever and it is incredibly beautiful. I'm Only Sleeping, Eleanor Rigby, Taxman, and Here There & Everywhere are my 4 favorite songs on the album and are virtually in a four-way tie for first place. Nevertheless, in the spirit of this game, I've ranked them best I can. The degree of separation is so slight, I can't meaningfully explain why one ranks above the other. It's just instinct.

I don't have a strong dislike for it either. But I'm Only Sleeping is literally a snooze fest. Quite right.

I like Here, There and Everywhere a lot. It's a beautiful song.
As I posted elsewhere on this forum, sometimes my favorite songs aren't necessarily the "best" musically, but something in them evokes a good memory of when I first heard them. This applies to 2 of the three other songs.

And shouldn't a song entitled I'm Only Sleeping be a "snooze fest"? :-)

Plesse keep in mind this game isnt meant to disparage a particular song, but pick our favorites.

Exactly. I love here there and everywhere. I just don't think it's "top 3" material.

Counting votes now...

Aw man... As a testament to what a great album Revolver is we have another tie.

Here has 7 and Sleeping has 7.

First new vote cast one way or the other will decide the round.

VOTE!!! VOTE!!! VOTE!!!
 :3d

.

Can't vote 2 songs at a time within the same round. You did the choice:



& thanks B.E. & Liz for nice polite detailed answers.

Is the vote for favorite, or least favorite?

Sure, thanks!

Pix,  Maybe you should explain that a vote made can be changed.  A changed vote can break the tie, right?

I know from previous games, some people aren't playing a game, as much as demanding their choice wins at all costs.

cotton insect,  Has it been made clear to you that you can change your vote?  I don't understand your .(dot) post.

His dot post was voting 2nd time, now with "Here There & Everywhere". He somehow took it to mean that pixletwin arranged separate round, to choose between the 2. I explained to him it's still the same round. & showed him his earlier choice.
Watamushi, did I say it right?

Right.

Watamushi, As far as I know, you can change your original vote to "Here There and Everywhere" - which should be the deciding vote for this round.

Pixletwin,  I've already got caught up in the controlling factor of this game once.  Rather not see it in every round.  I would request you clarify the right to change a vote to Watamushi.

I'm only sleeping

Looks like this is new vote that should be counted. Paging pixletwin. :)


Sorry but it's too late for it as rab2591 voted BEFORE Watamushi changed his vote. If you changed your vote doesn't mean everybody wants to do it. Watamushi didn't show in any way that he wants to change the vote. It was just little misunderstanding.

i'm only awake in this conquest!!!!

Whenever there's been a tie, Pixletwin has said "first NEW vote" will decide. I thought that implied that a previous vote cant be changed. I think that's the fairest way. Bummer if my favorite song gets voted off. Prior to a tie at the end of a round people have changed their vote from time to time.

Well said. rab2591's vote decides.

Round is closed. I will make it official later.

To answer the question about switching.....

I would say people flip their votes all the time on the TV show, so why not here?  :3d

So when there is a tie, feel free to flip your vote!

no! change votes? yeah, i don't know about that.  i may be coming into a breakdown.....

Jolly good. :)

Folks, we're in for treat to get to the really interesting final round! Paul vs. George - I figured that every George song would be out halfway, not to mention making to finals. But now "Taxman" is in! Can't wait its start.

Why would you think every song by George would be out?

This is what is right.  Cotton Insect (Watamushi) tried to change his vote.  Did it in a way to the best of his abilities.  Then was told he could not according to some rule I've never heard of, and I've been playing this game for over three years.

When is a game not a game?  When all the rules are set by only one person.  Makes it more a "Rank the Tracks" deal, per individual.  That can be done elsewhere.

Confusion works, sometimes.

https://youtu.be/w-I53DTXLmY

Cotton Insect?  :brow

So if I am understanding you correctly, for the sake of simplicity no flips allowed when a tie breaker is called for?

I am okay with that too.

This is the album I consider to be the end of the Beatles v.1 (i.e. the moptops).



18 votes spread across 4 songs.
A pretty hotly contested round. This vote will mean no Lennon songs in the final three. 8 smilers voted to WAKE HIM UP!!!! (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/survivor.gif)


Here we come to the final round. The three top survivors.

Pick which of the remaining three songs is YOUR FAVORITE. Winner takes all and becomes the 7th Beatle Surivor.

Tally on May 8.

Taxman
Eleanor Rigby
Here, There and Everywhere

Round#1 Love You To April 10
Round#2 Yellow Submarine April 12
Round#3 I Want To Tell You April 15
Round#4 Doctor Robert April 18
Round#5 Good Day Sunshine April 20
Round#6 Got To Get You Into My Life April 22
Round#7 She Said She Said April 24
Round#8 And Your Bird Can Sing April 27
Round#9 For No One May 1
Round#10 Tomorrow Never Knows May 3
Round#11 I'm Only Sleeping May 6

Here There and Everywhere was my pick to go for 3 rounds in a row. So I am obviously not picking that one....

Taxman is a valiant effort by George with a great bass line from Paul. If Lennon is to be believed he had more to do with the writing of the song than George ever gave him credit for....

My vote for SURVIVOR goes to Eleanor Rigby. Great string quartet arrangement from Sir George Martin. Superb melody by Paul and, as John said, the lyrics proved that Paul could write great lyrics when he wanted to. Plus the opening shot of Yellow Submarine playing Eleanor Rigby is about as iconic as they come.

It's also cool that there just happened to be graves for BOTH an "Eleanor Rigby" and "Father John Mackenzie" in a cemetery near Paul's home.

Hmm. Suppressed voter.

Favorite-Taxman.

I subscribe to that notion, but he had a lot of help on this one. Ringo's "darning his socks" line is my favorite.

Eleanor Rigby, for the win!

Pixletwin, just to be clear...when there's a tie the first new vote or changed/switched/flipped vote decides it? I'd prefer to wait for a new vote, but either way, as long as it's clear.

[Deleted]

Of these three, I probably play Taxman the most. George is now really in his element.
Have played this song so many times that for a good while, when remembering who's the present PM of the UK, I would immediately think "Wilson? Heath?"

However, as much as I love that song, the best of the bunch IMO is ELEANOR RIGBY.
Probably the only Beatles song to bring tears to my eyes. One of Paul's very best efforts.

"Eleanor Rigby". It's beautiful, poetic & really makes you stop in tracks.

No one's vote was suppressed. It was just a misunderstanding. :)

[Deleted]

No, I didn't want to change the vote, but I thought it was the new round between Here and Sleeping, and thought I had to vote for one of the two. If not for my misunderstanding, that would never happen. Sorry everyone.

This:

This time I'd go for Taxman.

I explained just that - twice - but they don't believe me. Thanks to confirm my words.

.......

wow.....buzz kill, not sure what's going on with the saga there, isn't this suppost to be fun?

but the top track here is from the quiet Beatle.......... TAXMAN!!!!!!!!!!!

Gonna have to give the edge to Taxman

eleanor rigby

Taxman

Tough one. 

Im giving my vote to Taxman.  I love Ms. Rigby, but it feels more like a Paul solo effort.  Its not even my favorite Paul song on the record. That honor goes to For No One.

My favorite Revolver track is probably And Your Bird Can Sing, but didnt have the votes.  Oh well.  Not really a wrong answer.

It sure was a tough one. And I agree with you that For No One is the best of the Paul songs on this album (and one of his best, period, IMO)
Although I voted for "Eleanor" I wouldn't be upset at all if Taxman won. That's a wonderful song. And George would get even better, with the Beatles and especially solo.

I think Eleanor has better lyrics, but the music and melody of For No One is unbe-f***ing-lieveable

Exactly. For No One is as good as most part of Pet Sounds.

Eleanor Rigby

Well, I guess these final selections more than make up for the John-dominated no-Paul Rubber Soul finals, Range  :lol

Rei, you did dump IOS too. There isn't John song I like here except "And Your Bird Can Sing". Should smb. list Top 20 Beatles, I wouldn't be surprised to see it there.

For No One should be in the final three, one of my favorite Beatles songs ever.
Taxman gets my vote for the ones that are left though.

Hope so.  Thanks for putting up with all the squabbling, pixletwin.

Two of my very favorites didn't make the cuts,  "And Your Bird Can Sing" and "I'm Only Sleeping".

I'm not that big a fan of "Eleanor Rigby" - loved the extended version Paul did in the movie, tho.

I love "Taxman"  and won't mind if George wins one.

I am going to vote for "Here There and Everywhere" - one of his very best songs.

Looks like I missed a couple rounds. Oh well.

Don't really know how to vote for. I'll choose Eleanor Rigby.

Eleanor Rigby.

Final round will be wrapping up in roughly 7 hours.

Get those votes in smilers!!!!

This is the album I consider to be the end of the Beatles v.1 (i.e. the moptops).

Revolver is a great album. Each Beatles started to define their own individual personality apart from the group. Once could say that, in a way, this was the beginning of the end.
