*thumbs up*

I don't really enjoy Helter Skelter, by the way. It sounds like Macca trying too hard.


Songs I like but am baffled that people single out include: Monkey and Warm Gun.

By the by, Sadie could replace Martha My Dear in my list on any given day.

It's amazing.

And I've been digging 'Savoy Truffle' a lot lately, mostly thanks to the mentions on this thread.

Happiness..
Cry Baby Cry
Blackbird
Rev 9

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.

I'd probably replace 'Blackbird' with either 'Glass Onion' or 'Martha', but otherwise, yeah yeah yeah

It's the key to the LP. If you don't get it, you haven't really got the LP.

to choose 5 is not enough.

trimmed down to a single album is more interested.

the songs nog chosen could've been kept behind to appear on the 50 year anniversary as a separate disc.

I mostly went with the rockers on this one.

Been listening to this album a lot lately, I feel like bands have based whole careers around the, “she’s coming down fast” bit of Helter Skelter.
