I have no idea what you said, but there are plenty of bad Beatle songs.  Well, some anyway.

Primarily (for me) Rev 9, What Goes On, and a few others.

Revolution #9
You Know My Name

Those two in particular....I always skip them....Dizzy Miss Lizzie is quite horrid as well.

I love You Know My Name Look Up the Number. If that's what you meant. It's funny. It was meant to be funny, not a serious song. And even with that it starts out with a good tune! I love John's mumbling at the end and Paul's high voice. What other band would ever think to do a song like that? That's why I love them. They're totally unique. And songs like You know my name and Revolution #9 make them that way. Although I cannot listen to Revolution #9! But hey, they tried something new right?

They don't have a LOT of bad songs.  But they have a few.  Universally #9 gets panned.  After that it tends to go along personal tastes more than real flaws in the music itself.  One person will say Chains is the worst, others will dispute that.

Just one of those personal things I guess.

Yeah, "You Know My Name (Look Up the Number" is definitely quite funny, it's just not something that excites me to listen to it....it's only weak by Beatles standards really, but it's by no means a bad track. I really like the extended version on Anthology II.....not sure why, but it's just something kind of jazzy at times and all, a nice listen.

They do have some bad songs. I don't really care for Hello Goodbye. There are a few more but that one is just off the top of my head.

I don't think there are any bad Beatles songs, but there are a few that aren't that great.  I can think of a few like I Don't Want To Spoil The Party, Your Mother Should Know, Mr. Moonlight, What Goes On & And Your Bird Can Sing which aren't exactly Beatles gems. 
Title: Re: there are NO bad beatles songs
Post by: Herecomesyoursun on June 22, 2004, 01:34:25 AM
Wild Honey Pie from the white album.  Do You Want to Know a Secret.  Theres a lot of bad Beatles songs, but proportionally, not really.  In their later stuff there were some albums with no bad songs.

Party and Mother are rather forgettable imo.....but "And Your Bird Can Sing" really is gold.

Seeing as they made the Beatles what they are, i give them much respect, but i never liked them that much musically.  I think a lot of the Beatles early catalogue is weak ex. This Boy

The Beatles early stuff is classic. You have to think of it in the time it was put out. That stuff started a whole revolution in the music industry and had a huge effect on our culture! Think about how things changed after that. Well, it started with those poppy songs which at the time were huge hits.  Plus they are pleasant tunes to listen to even today. Everyone knows those songs and probably loved them at one point in their lives.

Some songs I skip simply because they are too boring/repetitive, but some of their "songs" aren't in fact theirs and are covers

Oh yeah, and people's opinions differ - beauty of the beatles, there's something for everyone... except people who like rap (afraid1)(shakehead2)

(laugh2)

Well, "Happiness Is A Warm Gun" has rap............oh wait, that was the U2 version...

Do you guys have a lot of rap in Australia? I figure you'd avoid it easier, it's all we have here on the singles charts.....R and B and Rap...
Title: Re: there are NO bad beatles songs
Post by: broady on July 08, 2004, 10:54:32 AM
Yeah, we have a lot of what i call  neo-"R&B", and Rap.

There is some Rock - we appreciate our rock, but some of our "rock" is rubbish like Simple Plan *sigh*

Somebody told me Rap was black people's culture... I don't think that is true because some of the greatest guitarists of all time were black..

And the rap artists with the longest reign of success, The Beastie Boys, are white.

Someone said a while ago that they didn't like "You Know My Name (look up my number)" so that made me go out and listen to it and I totally love it. It's fun which fits with the Beatles.

I agree - YOU KNOW MY NAME is fun.
