I didn't consider "Yellow Submarine" because the song had been released before, but it's ok for those who want to consider it. Same goes for "Magical Mystery Tour".
1. Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band2. Magical Mystery Tour (yeah i'm using it and don't care if it p*sses somebody off)3. Taxman4. A Hard Days Night5. Help!6. It Wont Be Long7. I Saw Her Standing There8. Two Of Us9. Back In The USSR10. Yellow Submarine11. Come Together12. No Reply13. Drive My Car
Fair enough, but the 45 would surely have had many airings on the radio before release.
Why does that matter Hombre, arent we just picking our favourites ?
OK. I'll give it a try.1. It Don't Come Easy (Starr, 1971)2. ''Act Naturally'' [Live]3. Boys - Live
I like your list, only change would be moving Drive My Car up to number 8 or 9You must have a beef with the "Beep Beep"s I'm guessing?
There's no problem, just my criteria. I guess I want the Yellow Submarine album to be deleted from the history, it's not a proper album for me. The four "new" songs could have been released in the Anthologies, for example. I love the movie, though.I'd prefer to consider "Magical Mystery Tour": it would be #8 in my list.

How can you tell?
Judging by the various lists 'Drive My Car' definitely polarizes opinion, one's got it on top, one's got it at the bottom.I certainly wouldn't have it in a Top 50 Fabs' tunes.
Ahh Ok I see your reason, its not because it was previously released but because you don't consider it a 'proper. albumand that's why you (or I ) didn't include MMT
It would have been a terribly long wait.The Beatles may not have considered Yellow Submarine a "proper album" but we here in the US certainly did. In early 1969, the White Album and Yellow Submarine were #s 1 and 2.
It's the poor man's "Day Tripper"."Rubber Soul" is my favourite Beatles album but "Drive My Car" isn't in my top 100 Beatles songs. My biggest gripe with it is (unusually) Paul's vocal. That kind of faux-American accent like he used on "She's A Woman". Awful.
That song rocks!!
