Not saying his songs are outright bad, I just don't see why people consider him to be one of the greatest songwriters ever. I think Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds is probably my favorite song from him, but even then it's not even in my top 10 Beatles songs.
Norwegian Wood..~ A Day in the Life ~ Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds ~ Strawberry Fields ~ Martha My Dear ~ A Hard Day's Night ~ In My Life ~ Nowhere Man ~ Ticket to Ride ~ Happy Christmas.... all written by John. Just to mention a few
Hell, they were all terrific. I think Something is the most covered song of all time......even Sinatra sang it.
The Beatles were my very first concert on Friday August 28, 1964. My parents took me. I do not remember hearing one single note or voice, just hysterical girls crying all around me and saying how much they loved them. I do believe that the seeds were planted that night in me to become the lover of Rock n Roll, the Beatles, and music in general that I am.
Sorry for derailing the thread got a bit nostalgic here.
