Ok I am doing my favourite ones alphabetically just so its easier, not necessarily in the order of my favourite....
ALL MY LOVING....a really sweet song, yes, I sound a bit hypercritical now because I said all modern songs are about love however, even though this is, it is just so sweet and listen to the little guitar rifs in between and how great the composition of the piece is and usually they do harmonies but this is so nice with their voices in unison for the first bit....my rating: 88%

BLACKBIRD...I absolutely love this, so sweet and honestly the beautiful guitar-ing ever, I mean think how great you must be to come up with such a beautiful melody! I love it and the lyrics are so beautiful and again what a perfect example of doing a whole lot of different things, not just love, etc....Glee acutally do a good cover of it but I do prefer the beatles....the link is the Glee cover in case you want a listen....it was first released on their White album in 1968.
My rating: (for the original) 92%
DON'T PASS ME BY.....this is a really different song cause it has some sort of processed organ type instrument in the background that repeats throughout the song and works so well....it is really a great song, I can't even properly communicate why I like it because the repetition makes t unusual....this is also an example of how the Beatles are not afraid of other instruments, there is a very enthusiastic violin/viola in the background too....take a listen...
My rating: 85%
EIGHT DAYS A WEEK: love love love this one, its so beautiful and happy! There are also some beautiful harmonies in the choruses and really its just makes you have to tap your foot....
My rating: 91%
FROM ME TO YOU: Ok, this is my favourite song by the Beatles, no doubt. I just love it, a simple, clear message, "if you need anything, I will send it along with love from me to you", a happy tune, amazing harmonies, not too long, a great variety of instruments like harmonia, electric guitar, amazing drumming and wow, just stunning...

GIRL: a really plain, yet beautiful and sad touching song.....some people love it but my one criticism is that I am not actually a fan of the sort of sand sound that they do in the chorus (you'll know what I mean when you hear it) but I do understand that some people will like it.....also some great harmonies and clever background singing.....
My rating: 85%
GOOD DAY SUNSHINE.....also love this one, such a beautiful happy chorus, just a fun, playful and
cheerful song about being in love. Lovely harmonies and obviously they do everything else right, beautiful piano riff too.....
My rating: 92%
Ok, just ignore me if this is taking long and you don't like them but I am going to finish on one more post so just don't read it if it bothers you .....
