Nope. "Here Come The Sun" is the most popular Beatles song.

So everyone that likes the Beatles dont know shit? lol

considering it is a list of what songs have sold, probably better than any survey of opinions.

To be fair, this is a list of people who for some reason never bought any Beatles music for 40-50 years, and for some reason are finally getting around to doing it. They're obviously huge Beatles fans....

I'm a huge Beatles fan...but this list sucks. Half of these songs I wouldn't even put in my top 50.

Here's my top 10 in no particular order:

Across the Universe, One of the greatest songs ever written.
Please Please Me
I Want To Hold Your Hand
Nowhere Man
She Loves You
If I Fell
I'm Happy Just To Dance With You
Hello Goodbye
Cant Buy Me Love
I Feel Fine

As a fledgling fingerpicker but no karate expert, Blackbird is a top tenner for me. I think Julia deserves a place in there somewhere as well.

Blackbird is a tough one...good song. Norwegian Wood is a fun one too.

this is the beauty of the Beatles. Their music was about albumns, not singles. That's why everyone's list is different. I didn't like Itunes or anyone else getting the catalog and stripping it down to single songs. I think that's an injustice.

maybe the list is fine, and you need to re-evaluate your personal top ten.

Top 5 "Ringo" Songs

As Bill Hicks once said, "The Beatles were so high they even let Ringo sing a few songs." :lol:

They were smart with Ringo, I don't think "With a Little Help From My Friends" could have been sung any better than by Ringo.
