Alight to all you Beatle fan DU'ers.....



I was wondering which is your favorite solo song. Probably, as many others, Imagine (John) has been mine.

In the past year, I just discovered, Beware of Darkness (George). My God....It may be tied with Imagine now......

I love Clapton's music, his politics, not so much

note - I always thought it was George on guitar

And "Imagine"

But one of my favorite Beatles songs is
"In my Life"

It’s not deep but it just makes me happy—and both their vocals are so fine.

John wrote it for Yoko, but sang it in a studio recording before giving it to her.

I think I might even like it better than 'Yesterday.'
And that's saying something!

I also like John's Imagine and Watching The Wheels, and Goodnight Tonight by Paul/Wings.
