1. Norwegian Wood (first song with no unnecessary words)
2. Michelle (flip side of Norwegian Wood, emotionally--melody tops)
3.  In My Life (great song, but not the greatest by the Beatles or even this album--no matter what Q or whoever says)
4.  If I Needed Someone (George kicks ass)
5. Girl (great slavonic beat--they're expanding their soundscape)
6. Drive My Car (Paul and John working together--what a concept)
7. I'm Looking Through You (helluva an intro)
8  Nowhere Man (great melody but too preachy?)
9. Think For Yourself (great melody but too preachy)
10. You Wont See Me (moptop deja vu)
11.  The Word (oh, it's Love--I've got it, the Word is Good)
11.  Wait (for what?)
12.  What Goes On (sounds half-finished)
13.  Run for your Life (good idea, but the lyrics are pedestrian, like a bad country song)

Every other song on "Rubber Soul" is unbearably awful.  Maybe I'd like "Rubber Soul" more if I was on drugs, but I'm not.

Title: Re: Rank the songs on 'Rubber Soul'
Post by: bobreynolds on June 23, 2005, 02:36:14 AM
I just don't like it.

In my experience all the Beatles work from Rubber Soul on to the end is way better then their work before Rubber Soul. Then again, I haven't really been exposed to much of their very early work, so I may be wrong. I'll have to check it out.
Title: Re: Rank the songs on 'Rubber Soul'

I Saw Her Standing There, Please Please Me, Love Me Do, Twist And Shout, All My Loving, A Hard Day's Night, And I Love Her, I I Fell, Help!, Yesterday, The Night Before...

And those are only some of their best earlier songs.
