Let's use the song vs. song method here, OK?

I am the walrus - I saw here standing there: 1-0 for Lennon
Strawberry Fields forever - Can't buy me love: 2-0
In my life - Yesterday: 3-0
Tomorrow never knows - Got to get you into my life: 3-1
You've got to hide your love away - She's leaving home: 3-2 (veeeeeery close)
All you need is love - Get back: 3-3
Come together - Let it be: 3-4 (CT might be Lennon's, but what makes it so cool is McCartney's bassline)
Across the universe - Penny Lane: 4-5 (they both get points here cause I really can't choose)
Ticket to ride - Paperback writer: 4-6
Twist and shout - Medley: 4-6... no points cause Lennon cheated... Twist & shout is not his.

LoL, the song vs. song thing is nice, but there's a lot of song vs. song things that aren't similar songs.  Come Together vs. Let It Be?  :P

Lennon Collection...only for the fact that it has three of my top 20 Beatles songs in it

(It won;t be long, And your bird can sing,  If I fell)

whereas the McCartney Collection has only one (paperback Writer)

I'd take the Lennon collection.  There's a lot of substance there people.  (And that's coming from a McCartney fan...hell I even stood in for him during the 60's!)  LOL
