Nice that we're all in agreement here. :D :yes

On the topic of Paul McCartney as a solo artist, I'm also fond of "The Song We Were Singing".

I do like the solo stuff, to a point The Beatles still beat the solo stuff in terms of complexity and memorability.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I like their solo stuff as much I do as their group work. In terms of overall quality consistency, as a band they're still probably at their best, but many of their solo songs are still very memorable for me too. I even had a sizeable and ongoing Beatles/solo CD collection when I was younger. ^^

That shouldn’t be an unpopular opinion at all, the solo work is excellent. I’m partial to George’s though, especially with the Traveling Wilburys. Paul and Wings are good too  :PAli

The Beatles are my all time favorite band. My favorite song is Strawberry Fields Forever.

A friend of mine actually introduced me to the Beatles a while back(and funny enough, I got him into LBT).

I really like them. I used to like Paul the most, but lately I'm more partial to George.

Always singing this song with replacing "submarine" to "submachine" ^^ (being fan of the latter)

We all live in the yellow Submachine

They've got some great songs but I never really got into them. More into Rolling Stones or The Who!

I, Me, Mine is good; it sure doesn’t get talked about a lot.

And I getcha, Littlefoot; The Who’s a really good group.

Very cool chart history video on The Beatles that encompasses their legacy on the Billboard Hot 100 Charts. :ChomperPOG

Thanks! :Mo

And personally I'm not over the top about The Beatles, but I still do believe some songs of theirs are good. :DD
