The Beatles Survivor #10 Winner: STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER

[Scaroline No]

Penny Lane. I named my cat after the song, so that's a reason A good reason? Probably not. But I like PL and SFF equally so it's a toss up for me.

Fool on the Hill

[Wata]

Why people don't explain the SFF choice? Don't you like "Penny Lane"? It's objectively better than it. Why not give Paul chance to win? It's always John song that wins. You realize what you do?

Watamushi, don't you like Paul's songs?

I generally like Paul's songs better than John's, especially for the later era.  For example, I think anything John did after 1970 is not as good as what Paul did around the same time.

However, since I think of Strawberry Fields as one of the Beatles' top ten best songs, although Penny Lane is great, I think Strawberry Fields is even better than Penny Lane.

This is an exception.

This is practically a 3-way tie, but I'll go with Fool on the Hill.

Some would say this is where the cracks began to show in the Beatles Mystique... Maybe more like hairline fractures....

Despite the efforts of 2 smilers, the Fool has been booted off the hill.
4 smilers  bought poppies from the pretty nurse's tray.

But in the end there can be only one SURVIVOR and 6 smilers voted to sing the praises to the song where NOTHING IS REAL...
