Underrated John Songs
« on: February 02, 2005, 05:01:38 AM »
Some John (Beatle) songs that are really cool yet never get radio play and are underappreciated!! At least I think so. I do a thread like this for Paul, but at the moment I can't think of any songs by him that go unapreciated.

I'm So Tired
Dig a Pony
Sexy Sadie
Dear Prudence
Happiness is a Warm Gun(so original, never heard anything like it)
Revolution(I know it gets played, but I think it's a song that was ahead of it's time and doesn't really get talked about like say a Helter Skelter)

Any thoughts? See, I'm trying to start a discussion here! It never works.

Rain. A monumental song - great lyrics, great playing, great mood. Probably my favourite Beatle tune

Sexy Sadie is one of my favorites as well... I did hear Rain on the radio once or twice, so I can't say that it's underrated (i know, that's still not a lot)...

Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite
Julia
Bungalow Bill
Cry Baby Cry
Revolution 9

Those are about all I can think of.... all great songs... Underrated...

Can you elaborate a little bit please? I can't see what words you or sentences there you don't understand...

Is it "Revolution 9", "those are about all I can think of", "all great songs" or "underrated"? Surely you know what all of those phrases mean, correct?

Rain is a very good song and is underrated

Sexy Sadie is one of the most underrated Lennon classics during his Beatles days.

Tomorrow Never Knows. I consider that a real masterpiece.
