Of course it's hard to choose 10 representative songs from the fab four. These are my personal favorites.

Great List! I guess it seems like all real Beatles' fans are really into "A Day In The Life", myself included. I also really like "I'm Only Sleeping", I guess I sort of relate to that one.... people criticizing you and whatnot. Plus, the backwards solo is great.

Thanks, man.

Looking at this list, I just now noticed that all the selections, deal with "life" or "people" (e.g. personal pronouns or names). Wow, it's been a while since I created this list. That's creeping me out.

I think it's on the Beatles Anthology Series where Paul briefly talks about their subject matter and songs' perspectives. He talks about how all their early hits used pronouns, and how they eventually tried to switch things up a little.
