Dear Prudence. Perfect mix of their early day pop sensibility, with their more progressive melodies a few years later.

[@thedonald011]

"let it be" was the first song that made me realize how powerful music was...

[@rockingbirdey]

"Let It Be" isn't my favourite Beatles song - it's in my Top 10 but it's "In My Life" is my fav - but I think the last minute of "Let It Be" is among the finest recorded music ever made. Also, George's guitar solo on the album solo is just to die for.

[@kipperbill]

Hey Jude was that exact song for me... really stirred up the emotion I call "POWER"

[@Randomjackass135]

Dear Prudence will forever be my favorite. And Siouxsie Sioux’s cover is perfection

[@beatlemania8273]

I like how it follows Back in the USSR, one of their best rockers. The two songs pair greatly.

[@dannsteven]

It’s got a great music video.

[@SplendidCoffee0]

I’m shocked at how few people if any have mentioned “The End.” While it’s short, it’s one of their most powerful tracks to me

[@mafuuyama]

it's the perfect song to close an album with. and i love how it's also like the closing track of their whole career, definitely the best way to end the beatles story 🥲

[@RingoWaters-kl4vo]

I think the fact that every beatle gets a solo on that track, even ringo, is such a cool touch

[@SURGASURGE12]

While My Guitar Gently Weeps is a perfect song. Easily my favourite. The soulful, uplifting melody, Clapton's fabulous guitar work, McCartney's piercing bassline, and of course, Harrison's excellent songwriting.

Tomorrow Never Knows might be my favorite just because it so different from everything else - and not only when looking at the Beatles catalogue, but music as a whole.

John’s section at the start is bizarre and the piano chords that come in just before the verse are powerful. Then you get the orchestra buildup that creates so much tension only to have it be released with Paul’s catchy little section and then the AAAHS are so good. Literally a perfect song.
