Sorry, I forgot to include that. I have edited your vote.

I think Ringo sounds the best on With A Little Help From My Friends, the song seems to suit his voice the best and he has a chance to show what he's worth as a singer.

Ringo has personality all over his voice. I don't care what he sings. It just shouts, "Ringo!"


All you've got to do is choose love.  That's how I live it now.  I learned a long time ago, I can feed the birds in my garden.  I can't feed them all. -- Ringo Starr, Rolling Stone magazine, May 2007

ringo's voice is all his own.
not to be compared to the other beatles.
even today, his voice sounds like back in the day.
i would love for him to sing octopus's garden in concert .
even though i voted for with a little help, i think octopuss is my favorite beatle ringo song.

He does have a very interesting voice.  Unique for sure.  I vote for...With a Little Help From My Friends.  That song just suits him.  I do really love when he sings Boys though.  I love how he rocks out on that one.

I'm with 'I Wanna Be Your Man' - though 'Boys' rocks just as well. He does the ballads nicely, but I like the rockers.

"Don't Pass Me By " gets my vote i really like his droll delivery . " With A little Help From My Friends " is a close second though . It's funny this song as been coverd by a number of good singers and none of them seem to capture what Ringo did with the song , his is the definitive version .

"With a Little Help From My Friends." But I love the full throttle crash-and-burn take of "Boys" on Live At The Hollywood Bowl, and there's a great version of "I Wanna Be Your Man" on Complete BBC as well.

Boys.  I Wanna Be Your Man a close second.

Quoted from Klang

So do I, Klang

Yellow Submarine maybe?


"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe.
Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me."

With A Little Help From My Friends, although his voice on Honey Don't really rocks.


"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."

"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."

To be honest, I like all of these songs, and I love the way Ringo sings in genreal, so I can't pick one... yet

But let me just agree with something that DaveRam said about With a Little Help from My Friends:

Quoted from DaveRam
It's funny this song as been coverd by a number of good singers and none of them seem to capture what Ringo did with the song , his is the definitive version .


I agree very much-ly indeed





I'd ask my friends to come and see... an Octopus's Garden with me ^___^

I cried buckets when I heard him sing Photograph at Concert for George. Just amazing! I thought his voice had strengthened and grown in confidence beyond measure.

Will have to go away and think about the Beatle ones, though. I do like Boys (the song!!) and I agree about the cover versions. Somehow no-one else can do it like Ringo!
