Things we said today
I'm looking through you
Yesterday
All My loving
Here comes the sun
While my guitar gently weeps
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
When I'm sixty-four
Octopus' garden
I saw her standing there
P.S. I love you
I'll follow the sun
I've just seen a face

I don't know how I would ever pick a favorite out of that.
I have great appreciation for high quality music, this is why I hate the Beatles.

Give me a John Coltrane, Sun Ra, Ornette Coleman, Miles Davis over the Beatles anyday. If I want to listen to rock I can also find several better options than the Beatles, a little soul in music is always a good thing and the Beatles have no soul

The only good thing that has come from the Beatles is some jazz musicians have done arrangements of their music.
