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.

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

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.

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.

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

Is the vote for favorite, or least favorite?

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?
