I agree.

I'm not sure I can get behind the premise of this thread. It's kinda like arguing renaissance artists. Is Michelangelo "better" than Da Vinci, Donatello, etc.?

They were each unique artists who synergistclly combined to define an era, an epoch. Maybe the Beatles get points for their overall opus, but there are others with songs I like better than any one Lennon/McCartney tune.

I'm off to see my friend/favorite bartender's band play. I've been hearing about this band since February, but they've refused to gig until they "got it right." After nine months in the studio, they'd better have.


And, for the record, THIS is the Beatles' most underrated song.
