What is your most favourite Paul's love song with the Beatles???
Mine is

And I Love Her
I'll Follow The Sun

I'd go for Here, There and Everywhere, For No One and I'll Follow The Sun - I LOVE those tracks!

For No One. A great song, with wonderful lyrics, written from an unusual standpoint, the detached observer (... /you find that all the things she said/will fill your head/you wont forget her).

This observer is incredibly matter-of-fact and laconic (... a love that should have lasted years, ...you won't forget her, ... cried for no-one, and other lines). This adds to the poignancy of the song.

If you class Eleanor Rigby as a love song, I would put it even greater than For No One.

Oh yeah, "for no one" Definately.. I'd have to say my Pick it "I will" Or "here there and everywhere"

Yesterday, All My Loving and And I Love Her

Why Don't We Do It In The Road.






For No One, hands down.  It is superb.  And Yesterday (lost love anyway) is an exceptional song to be written by a highly successful guy in his 20's.

My between the lines selections-

Shes Leaving Home - A great little story and i'm using the basis of the parents love for the daughter.

Got To Get You Into My Life - Ok, so its about pot. The majority doesnt know that.

Things We Said Today - I know, I know,,,,,but it talks about love. This is actually one of my favorite tunes ever. The live version from Hollywood Bowl is to die for. Thats the way the song should be played.

For no one

For No One, I'll Follow The Sun and Two of Us.

And I Love Her, Oh! Darling, Here There and Everywhere, Good Day Sunshine

Here there and everywhere, definitely.michelle gets a nod for sure though

Any of them.  

Especially, Hold Me Tight and A Taste of Honey

For No One gets my vote as well. One of Macca's more melancholy love songs, but for some reason always seems to cheer me up. Perhaps it's its  message and how it reminds me that this kind of thing happens to other people, people learn to get pass it and it jsut fills me with hope. Universal sort of thing.

And if solo works are accepted, Maybe I'm Amazed. Just  a powerful love song. Makes we wish I was Linda sometimes .

Here There and Everywhere
For No One

I'd say my favorites are Long haired lady(Such a great song I love it) and Maybe I'm amazed(My favorite version is the Paul McCartney and the wings 1974 studio rehearsal. I'm not sure if many people heard it but its the best version I've heard).

He has a lot of great one, but my vote is definitely Here There and Everywhere.

Hmmm... sounds familiar...... YDOLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"I Will"...  The melody is absolute perfection. What a beautiful song.

Also "Maybe I'm Amazed." Ditto what lennonlemon said about wishing to be Linda!

I really want to be Linda, too. Except without the harassment....

And I Love Her I THink is his Best Love Song

I have recently heard a SUPERB version of Maybe I'm Amazed which really reminded me of your recordings Missy. It's an acoustic version by "Jem" and I think you would love it! It made me think that YOU would be able to do a great version of this too! Please let me know if you would like to hear it

Hey!

I believe I've heard this version, and yeah, I really like it. It was featured on the O.C., which is pretty popular over here across the pond. I tried to make my own little arrangement for it a while back and got really frustrated, but I just may try again. Thanks for thinking of me, Al!

Yep, that's the one! I was pretty sure you'd like that version too!

I actually have it on CD single and I'm sure it mentions something about the OC (which is ALSO popular THIS side of the pond too!). Look forward to hearing your version too!!

Last episode of the first series...a classic song to go with the scene

Quoted from The_End

I actually have it on CD single and I'm sure it mentions something about the OC (which is ALSO popular THIS side of the pond too!).

Good to know! I make the big move to England in little less than 4 weeks and was wondering if my weekly O.C. night would be much different. Over here it consists of a room full of guys and girls who will occasionally yell at the characters and throw objects at the screen. Yes, it brings us together.

The O.C is the show...
It's far too good.
This reminds me..have to buy the second series on DVD!

Never got into that show, but everyone else on the planet seems to dig it.

Paul's greatest love song? Hard to say... Here, There And Everywhere, perhaps... Or Hey Jude, if you consider that a love song.

Let it Be, And I Love Her and The Long And Winding Road are also up there.

I'm quite proud of my OC hatred. Despise that show. Rich people sleeping with each other. Oooh, that's entertainment all right!
Stuff like this stays on the air yet Joan of Arcadia is cancelled... what a world we live in.

Well, enough of my ranting. Alan, I'm assuming that this is not the "Jem" you are referring to?


Help me, I'm talking and I can't shut up!

I think this is the Jem he's talknig about.



I don't think your Jem does acoustic.

lol, I would think not.
