What are the most ROCKIN' songs that John sang, with the Beatles or Solo?

I personally love The Beatles version of Twist and Shout and especially the way John sang it. He really rocked out on that one if you ask me!

It hurts me to hear him scream that song, he has no voice left!! I do like the song though.

"Twist and Shout" and "Money" for sheer decibels. Also "New York City," the best song on the otherwise mostly dreadful Some Time In New York City. "Come Together," "Revolution," and "Don't Let Me Down" have a lot more style, though.
Oh yes; and "Rock and Roll Music," of course.

I always liked the swagger of " You Can't Do That " , John always makes me green that i can't sing like that (tongue1)

I really love "Slow Down" off "Something New". Besides the great sandpaper-voice vocals, it has one of the best screams in the history of rock and roll music (just before the guitar solo). I think it might be double tracked but who cares!

^^^^^^All those are great, Geoff. But add to it "Instant Karma" from his solo years. I think that one rocks...

I like Cold Turkey, one of the heaviest songs he ever wrote (Altought the screaming creeped me the first time I heard it)
I Specially love the version from "Live In New York City", and I think Move Over Ms. L is also a great rocker
