"Rain" and "The End". Yes yes yes. Excellent. Y'know, Ringo liked his drumming on "Rain" the best of all the Beatles' tracks.
If I could suggest something, it'd be "Happiness Is a Warm Gun", just because of all the insane time signature changes.
Little trivia note: according to George Martin's commentary in the 2-disc "Hard Day's Night" DVD, Ringo was always good about spitting out wacky phrases. While he didn't write it, he came up with the title for "Tomorrow Never Knows".
and he, not John, was the one who said "I got blisters on my fingers!" at the end of "Helter Skelter"
Thank you! You have no idea how many arguments I've gotten with Beatles "fans" who swear Lennon shouted that...
