He's actually right...sort of...."It's Only Love" is on the American version of Rubber Soul.....

Worst - What Goes On (I LOVE That song too....so that's saying a lot for the album)

There's too many good ones on this album. I'd have a hard time especially picking one between Drive My Car, You Won't See Me, I'm Looking Through You, and In My Life.
I'd have to say Drive My Car.
Worst: What Goes On. It's annoying, kind of, I usually skip it, it seems to make time drag.

Best: In My Life
Worst: Run For Your Life

Best - I'm Looking Through You
Worst - What Goes On

Favorite: In My Life
Least favorite: What Goes On
-
Am I alone in enjoying What Goes On? The Beatles do country really well. The guitar work sounds great and it fits well with the album. Wait is more of a problem for me.
Can't pick a favourite - anyone of Pauls songs I guess (except Michelle, which is good, but not great.)
-
I agree with the guitar work on What Goes On - But I just think it's a tad stiff and doesn't really go anywhere...
That's not to say I detest it - just if I had to choose a song that doesn't match the others, then it's What Goes On.
-
Best song(s): In My Life & Run For Your Life
Worst song: What Goes On
-
If I Needed Someone. And one of George's greatest.
Worst: Run For Your Life
-
I love "Wait" - a fine example of Ringo's 'backwards' fills.

What exactly is a 'backwards' fill?

Who started a topic about The Beatles being homo-erotic? ;D

Not me!

What exactly is a 'backwards' fill?
A common drum fill would be from the snare to the last tom. Doing that backwards is what Al's talking about, but in different variations.

Best song - Nowhere Man
Worst Song - Michelle
-
Best: Norwegian Wood
Worst: What Goes on
-
This is too hard!
Best Song: Nowhere Man / Think For Yourself / The Word / In My Life / If I Needed Someone / Drive My Car (I love each of these equally)
Worst Song: Run For Your Life (am I the only one bothered that the singer wants to kill his girlfriend?!?!? Good grief, at least it's at the end so I can skip it.)
-
Worst Song: Run For Your Life
You'renot alone on this forum in not likeing this song. Funnily enough, it's one of my favourites on the album!
-
Run For Your Life: Yeah, John said George liked it, too. You boys can be kind of thick sometimes! *affectionately terrorizes you with a big stick*

Best - If I Needed Someone
Worst - What Goes On?

I've probably already done this elsewhere on this thread and Bobber will probably catch me out, but here goes!!!
Best: In My Life
Worst: What Goes On

Best- Nowhere Man, Worst- Run for your life

BEST SONG: IN MY LIFE (one of Lennon's best songs!)
WORST SONG: I'M LOOKING THROUGH YOU (could have improved that one)
-
best - The Word
worst - You Won't See Me
-
best(a three way tie)- Michelle, In My Life, Nowhere Man
worst- What goes on (sorry Ringo!)
Hey, I know this is off subject, but how do you post your own pictures in a message and how do you use one of your own pictures for a avatar?

I listened to Paul's basswork during the solo of What Goes On lately. It's superb.

I think What Goes On is great. The guitar work and vocals (Ringo and the backing) are nifty as well. I much prefer this to plonkers like Wait.
The Beatles do country really well, and this sounds relaxed, fun and confident (totally fitting the album).
Maybe on CD it sounds wierd coming after Michelle, but on vinyl it's a great way to kick off side two.
Wait is my least favourite. It sounds lumpy, leaden and uninspired.
-
best - Michelle, Girl, Nowhere Man
worst - What goes on
I like "Girl" the most. I don`t know why, I sometimes cry, when i`m listening to it.
-
Ringo's drumming really drives along on What Goes On has well,
maybe one of the beatles most underated songs!

My man!
Good to know I'm not alone.

Almost recorded in 1963 (March 05) ... What Goes On could have fitted well on Guys For Sale ... George's guitar work (and some others from Rubber Soul and Revolver too) reminds me of some of his guitars from that 1964 album (I'm A Loser or Baby's In Black for example) ... good song!
-
Best: In My Life.
Worst: Wait.
"Here, Ring just stick a bit of tamborine on that..."

worst : "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)"
best : "Drive my car", "The Word"

Best: Girl, Run for you life, In my life, Wait
Worst: The Word, If I needed Someone
-

Perhaps it reminds you of a Russian song called "Galuboy Vagon"? (I have the idea that you are russian... sorry if i aint right)

Well with Song Survivor going on over in another section of the board 'In My Life' easily got the most votes as best.
-
I see that since I started Song Survivor, this has turned into 3 best songs! I'm honoured. Can't see why some people have voted on here, but not on Song Survivor?
-
In My Life is the best and the worst is Michelle. Yeah, not kidding. Even though I was named after this song, I hate it.

I will have a look at the Survivor game.
-
Best: 'Nowhere Man' - tough choice, of course, but how effing perfect is this?
Worst: 'What Goes On' - I grew up with C&W, so it's not that. I find the poor guitar work layered on top to be annoying.
I was surprised to find 'The Word' as so many's worst. It's a strong contender for best with me. A lovely message with ballsy energy and a very clever instrumental arrangement.
'Run For Your Life' is beautiful musically, but the grossly misogynistic lyrics bothered me even back in 'the good old days'.

Best is In My Life
Worst is What Goes On

I think we're talking about the UK version of the album here!
:)
-
yes I was...although I grew up w/ the Capitol counterparts, the UK albums are the ones I use now exclusively for my songlists

That is correct. Well done! ;D

That is correct. Well done! ;D
Hee! That got me thinking... for Song Survivor, if anyone gets the whole list-- their 1,2,3 and worst = the final results-- should they get a prize?

I had the set on With The Beatles. Can't be bothered to check the rest! What would you say was a suitable prize?
Interesting vote this week, btw.

That's why I hesitated mentioning it-- it's more work for you.
For a suitable prize I was thinking along the lines of a graphic or something. Take your SSG graphic and splash over it: "Winner of Most Average Opinion! for /album name/" or something silly like that. Or "Winner of the Finger on the Pulse of the Forum" award or something.
EDIT: Interesting vote! Interesting...

prize should be something like a special status like make one instead of likes of admin,mod......

That is correct. Well done! ;D

I Actually like What Goes On, mostly for the harmonies that George Paul and John do.
Best : In My Life Very beautiful song, best Beatles ballad for me
Worst : Think for Yourself It's not that I don't like it, it's the one I like least. I dont like George's way of singing the song, the words don't just flow out, you know, they are very forced.
-
Best Song: Nowhere Man - Lovely melody and good lyrics
Worst Song: Wait - Compared to the revolutionary stuff on the album, it just doesn't make the cut for me. Still very pretty though.
-
Best song: Noregian Wood
Worst song: What Goes On (it's not bad but it's weak for a Beatles song.)
-
Worst Song: Wait - Compared to the revolutionary stuff on the album, it just doesn't make the cut for me. Still very pretty though.
I think 'revolutionary' is going over the top a bit!
-
this is my favorite album so this is hard....
I think best for me is either I'm Looking Through You(sorry Jane) or Wait.
Worste would be Nowhere Man. It just didn't fit the album I think.

Best: Drive My Car
Worst: Run For Your Life
