What song sung by John would you like to hear sung by Paul? And vice versa? Or by George?

I'd like to hear a version of Oh Darling sung by John. He suggested himself it was more like his style. I always felt Paul could have done a great It Won't Be Long.

Any ideas on this?

Funnily enough, to me it has always sounded like Ringo has the dominant Lah lah lah in that track. But I'm not trying to start a "who did the laaaaaaaahs" debate!

Yeah, I have to agree - his very ringo-ish voice breaks through - a great track.
I always imagine he's really into it - like the sing-alongs on the Mystery Bus.

Yeah, and that's the best part of the song.





I'm having a hard time thinking of any songs I'd want them to swap on. I mean, it would be interesting to hear any of them sing another members song, but none I can think of that would make it better. I guess I'd want to hear John singing Oh! Darling just to see if he was right about it being better suited for his voice. Personally, I think Paul did a pretty damn good job himself.

Mr Moonlight by Ringo

Maybe that would have made it more "camp."
