Free As A Bird vs. Real Love

Which do you prefer? I love "Real Love".......it's so gorgeous. Free As A Bird reminds me too much of that Jeff Lynne production style that he did for George and Tom Petty.....good song, but not great. "Real Love" is a classic that should've been the first single.

I like 'Real Love' but the 'Free As A Bird' clip is great. But I still voted for 'Real Love' because it was about the song, not the clip.

Ough - this is asking quite too much of me. When they first came out I rathered
Free as a a bird
, mostly because of the lyrics - now though I think I like
Real love
best... I went with the latter anyway, but I'm still a bit undecided, I think I like "Free as a real bird love"
As Soft Guitar mentioned - they both have awesome videos though

I am a big collector of bootlegs, so I remember when they announced FREE AS A BIRD. I'd had a version of this from THE LOST LENNON TAPES and thought, "oh no -- I hope THIS isn't the thing they're working with. It's so slow, dull, and plodding". Sure enough, that was the one the other Beatles added their vocals to. Blech...

I like them both but I like "Real Love" better I guess because It sounds more like The Beatles then "Free As A Bird".

I suppose I just think Free As A Bird is just too slow... I love the badly fidelitated piano bit at the beginning of Real Love. And the "It's reeal love... it's re-e-e-e-al..." part. You know, it's these little certain parts in certain songs that just grab you.

YES! That is what has bugged me a bit about Free as a bird all these years but I couldn;t put my finger on it.

"Free As A Bird" actually has all the components of a great Beatle song from Ringo's stylized drumming to George's guitar riffs! It is the next Beatles phase! Real Love sounds like a left over from the Abby Road Lp. Something like " Because". The music in Free As A Bird has the slow labouris feel like I Am The Walrus listen again my friends!

Free As A Bird always reminds me of the ending song of the movie " La Bamba", my vote went to Free as a bird, cause it puts me in a calm mood
