First of all I want to commend you on your unwavering ability to convince me that you know nothing about the Beatles whatsoever. At the very least you do not seem to me to be any kind of fan worth their weight in salt, or mud. I would have with more ease accepted the fact that you were making a list of the top 10 Beatles albums. However you have insulted Beatles fans (in my opinion) by making a list of the "worst"..... the "worst" do you hear that.... Crickets. As in the same cricket you would hear if you were sitting in church, and told everyone that you were going to make a list of the worst things that Jesus Christ ever said. Then assured them that you would eventually get to the best things he ever said but that you wanted to start with the worst first. And that in the progression of this list reaching number one you would tell them that you skip over some of your favorite things Jesus said, but it's still on the top of your list. Also I'd like to speak to the fact that you called songs such as Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da "a filler song"... what are the Beatles tofu?, are they soy? Honestly do you think that this is just nitpicking, or that it's a real Beatles fan that you've insulted? I believe you didn't choose not only your words more precisely, and with more care, concern, and respect... that even moreover the greater insult is the name of the video all together. I wonder if you were asked what is the absolute worst Beatles song If you could answer. If so, and if you had children could also tell me which one was your worst favorite child, then you probably could answer me as to which child you would "skip over" when it comes time to feed them, or take care of them, even show them love, and respect? Don't get me wrong it's not as if I would criticize you if you were to say which one of the members was your favorite. However for you to say which one was the worst does not fit it does not equate and it has no place in a Beatles forum type setting. Now I know that leaves it open to the argument that it's comparing apples to oranges. However I would like to profess that almost for a fact no true Beatles fan would call any of their albums the "worst", So yes in my opinion it with full validity be likened to sitting in a church full of believers in Jesus Christ and tell them all that you're going to tell them the worst thing Jesus ever said. I won't even use the argument that you were more than likely not even born when their last album came out because that's not fair to anybody that appreciates their music can and should. Besides I have a greater point to be made in mentioning that your number one album on that list that is to say not the worst of their albums but the number one album on your list has a song on it that you said you skip over.

Even Paul says he missed that his friend was crying out for help at the time and said if it happened now he would get the person some help.

[@TheIgnatzz]

Actually, when the Beatles covered songs like "Roll Over Beethoven" they were reintroducing American kids to music they had STOPPED listening to. That stuff was no longer being played on the radio. The pop charts weren't Chuck Berry and Little Richard. They were Fabian and Frankie Avalon. That's WHY the early Beatles sounds so good. They were a throwback to REAL Rock n' Roll, but with very unusual chords and very tight harmonies. I heard the Beatles' Roll Over Beethoven and Rock and Roll Music long before I'd even HEARD of Chuck Berry.

[@TheIgnatzz]

@William Magee I certainly did. I was a kid in the 1960s. Chuck Berry was no longer being played on the radio - Top 40 only played current hits, there was no oldies station. I didn't start to hear 50s music until later.

Billy-I'm 63 and lived through the Beatles 'era,' and am glad you made this video because it's interesting to me how you perceive the very same music which the older crowd know so well. I'm also interested because when my generation of people were your age we DIDN'T like our parents' music (in general) whereas your generation, by liking The Beatles, is liking your GRANDPARENTS' music. I must confess, because The Beatles' music was always the music of youth as it came out, I find it hard even now to think of it as 'older people's' music. Their songs still sound youthful and fresh to me, and mostly not 'dated.' May I give you some reactions to your video and perspectives? In the 1960s The Beatles were, first of all, unusual because their sound was different and unique compared to everything else we'd heard so far. Their 'mop top' haircuts perhaps did as much to make them stand out as their music did, and I remember a big older-generation backlash against their long haircuts. (For example, the barbershop my dad took me to as a kid listed its different haircut styles and prices and among them was "Beetle-$3.00" (the name "Beatle" was PURPOSELY misspelled to be derogatory and the $3.00 price was deliberately the MOST expensive haircut available, again to show disdain for the look and, if possible, discourage it. Even so, the look caught on fairly quickly and during the 1960s the Beatle 'mop top' cut became the norm (you can even see the Beach Boys go from their clean-cut earlier image to the Beatle haircuts and psychedelic clothes). I think we may have garnered a different perception of The Beatles at the time because we grew and developed along with them gradually as they themselves grew and developed-they 'led along' their audience, who changed readily enough, album by album, to keep up with them. Your perception of the earlier Beatles albums as not as interesting strikes me as curious, and I think it's because I retain such a love for the earlier albums because they were so novel at the time compared to everything else that was available. For those earlier albums, their penchant to write love songs most of the time wasn't received as artistic 'shallowness'-and that's my word not yours-because so much of popular music in those days was along those lines as a sort of expected and standard thing. As a kid I remember thinking "I Wanna Be Your Man" which contains the line "I wanna be your lover baby…" was a bit risqué-can you believe that? Even so, it doesn't come close to their later line "Why don't we do it in the road?" For their time, The Beatles could be a little edgy. John and Yoko's "Two Virgins" album cover was downright scandalous for its time. I think what I appreciate most about their earlier albums is that they're closer in time to The Beatles' Hamburg days when they became a tight, tight band as performers. Some of that edginess carries over into their earlier records, although they had to grow accustomed to the process of recording in the studio, which is different than playing live on a stage in a club or theater, and the studio work can be its own kind of stressful and even somewhat inhibiting experience-mainly because you're striving to not make mistakes, whereas in live performance you're striving to make great band tightness and great interaction with the audience-mistakes come what may. Again, their earlier albums are full of The Beatles finding themselves as songwriters even as they'd already found themselves as a cohesive band. I think there's also a sociological aspect to the earlier albums which can be missed by experiencing the music alone. Radio airplay in those days was perhaps an equally important exposure for their music as were records, and singles were sometimes even more important than albums (which cost more and took longer to listen to, whereas singles played on radio were short and free, and played quite frequently). What smart phones are to teenagers today the transistor radio was to my generation-just about every young person either had one or wanted one. At times during the first half of the 1960s The Beatles as people and as an image and popular phenomenon were at least equally as important as their music. Kids wanted to hear them interviewed, to read about them and see their pictures in the teen magazines, and of course to see them on TV and (once A HARD DAY'S NIGHT was released) in films. Their Liverpudlian accents and dish-it-right-back humor were novel and even captivating. When their films were broadcast on TV later, they were special events like the annual broadcast of THE WIZARD OF OZ was back then. Beatles' appearances on THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW were national phenomena as well, and all of this fueled Beatlemania, which became larger than life and than The Beatles themselves. My mom's generation had the 'bobby soxers'-the teenage girls who screamed at performances by the young Frank Sinatra-but that was small-scale compared to the firestorm of enthusiasm The Beatles caused worldwide, and for a number of years. Once they became a studio-only band, Beatlemania faded somewhat but many American kids were so hooked that we looked forward to every new album or video appearance, as Phil Collins has said, like Christmas morning when opening presents. The Beatles kept changing their music, partly to keep up with the times and partly leading the change in the times. I think where I would rate their albums somewhat differently than you did (which is OK) is in terms of the societal impact their songs made during my youth, the personal memories I have which accompany their songs-their songs being the 'soundtrack' during particular years/times back then-and so forth. For example, "Can't Buy Me Love"/"You Can't Do That" was the first Beatles single I ever bought (actually, my mom bought it for me because I asked for it), so even though CBML is a fairly straightforward early song (modified 12 bar blues verse, Intro based on the chords of the Bridge, etc.) it's special to me for that reason. But I also well remember, and still think, that as a performance that record is just EXCELLENT. Again-the early Beatles recordings got a big 'boost up' from their Hamburg days and that carried over into their early albums, probably because even when they recorded those earlier records they did it more like a live performance would be done. Later on, as four and eight track tape became available, they spent more time perfecting invdividual tracks in the studio and that can sometimes seem to take some of the live-performance 'electricity' away. Sgt. Pepper is widely considered their most important and best album, but its songs are also among the hardest to replicate if you are deeply into their music and perform it yourself. Kids in the 1960s all wanted guitars (acoustic at least) so we could play our favorite artists' songs ourselves, and the Sgt. Pepper songs are much harder to self-perform than is the earlier material or some of the best later songs. Also, many of the songs on SP are written in 'nonstarndard' song-forms. I think SP is their most innovative album where the quality of all the tracks is super high, although as a concept album it's also a very variegated smorgasbord of songs, some of which don't seem very related to each other. (And that's OK because it reflects the four of them going in different directions while still retaining cohesion as a band.) My own least favorite Beatles album is the White Album-I THINK because of the length and also because the 'vibe' of the songs is beginning to reflect the band's interpersonal tensions and cynicism/sarcasm; it strikes me as reflecting more about the band's own tensions (and perhaps fatigue as well) than being about fan-oriented artistry. My own favorite whole albums are actually "A Hard Day's Night" and "Help!" because of the tunefulness and solidity of the songs, plus the band tightness is still there. However, I also love that George Harrison's songwriting bloomed and was allowed greater exposure on the later albums. All of that said, there are tracks on EVERY Beatles album that I especially love and would't want to be without.

Thank you :) i really enjoyed reading your comment. Also sorry of my spelling on this post (i am finnish). I really understand how you think the early beatles are so good, but i dont still see how you could rank A hard days night and help! higher than sgt. peppers Abbey Road , revolver or any of the newer albums, they went to so many different directions on the later albums and they invented so many new music subgenres. I still really understand how the early beatles were so famous as they were, unlike many people of my generation. So yeah, i would like to hear a bit more on why you think A hard days night and Help! Are better than the late beatles. I dont really either see why you think that the white album is worse than yellow submarine. Yellow submarine is just songs from revolver and some mediocer songs, unlike the White album, where the Beatles experimented so much. They tested to do some Folk rock, and did it really well, and you see it in Blackbird and many other songs. The White album also have some really Weird songs, they invented metal on that record. Also there is two of The best George Harrison songs (something and while My guitar gently weeps). There is also some of the greatest Beatles songs is general on that record. Dont forget that i still really appriciate the older Beatles albums. I would rank The Beatles albums like this. 13. Yellow submarine I already explained why i dont like this. 12. With The Beatles I really like every record of The Beatles if we dont count yellow submarine. There is many good songs on this record and some ok songs. I really like too to watch the live performances of the old Beatles, i like to see how they really enjoy singing on The stage. I still have a bit of The same flaws that Billy Cobb had on this record. 11. Beatles for Sale. This is also a really good record and i kinda just have the same reasons why i like this and why i dont like this as i had with the previously mentioned record. 10. Let it be So yeah, this is the worst record of the late beatles era couse here is just a few good songs and others are ok. Why this is higher than the previous two records is becouse here is the song let it be, wich is one of my personal favourite Beatles songs. Then there is long and winding road wich is also really really good. 9. Magicial Mystery tour. This is just sgt. Peppers but much worse, The songs that Billy named on the video is in my opinion the only actually good songs on the album. I still my self have to real quick here mention hiw much i like i am the walrus, the only problem with that song is that i dont really know what they mean with the words tho. Strawberryfields forever is also one of my favourite Beatles songs. 8. Please please me. Please please me has really no bad songs, every song is good on this record, i can't even see really any just ok songs on this record. 7. Help! Help has two of my top 10 If not top 5 songs wich are unsuprisingly yesterday and help. I personaly am not really so suprised that John Lennon thinks that help is one of his favourite songs. Yesterday is also a really really beutiful, emotionfull song. 6. A hard days night. A really cool album with no bad or mediocer songs. Every single song is good. I just quickly also want to say that the main readon why i dont like the old Beatles as much as the newer is becouse the songs does not have so good meanings or any hidden meanings. 5. Rubber soul. This album is where they took different directions and experimented many different things the first time. Here the Beatles really showed the first time how talented they actually were. 4. Abbey Road. This is really really really amazing. I still thin that some people overrate this saying that this is the best album ever by anybody. Every single song is still awesome on this record. Also The third best George song and the second best Ringo Song. This record also have some of the best Beatles songs ever. 3. Revolver. Every single song is also really good on revolver. Also Eleanor Rigby is in my opinion a top 5 Beatles Song. There is also many top 20 Beatles songs on this record. 2. The White album. I already explained why i love this so much. 1. Sgt. Peppers lonely heart Clubs band. In my opinion this is the best album ever made by anybody. I dont see anyone ever making a record as good as this. The best Ringo Song on here. The best Beatles Song (A Day in The Life). Many top 10 Beatles songs (for The Benefit of me kite!, with a little help from my friends, shes leaving home and Lucy in the sky with diamonds). Remember that this was just my personal opinion. Also Even tho The older records were worse in my opinion the thing i like maybe most of The Beatles is The evoluution of their music wich of course would not be possible whitout The older or newer songs. Have a good day and a really good life! :)

"Twist and Shout" from Please Please Me was a cover of a 3/10 song that turned it into a 9/10 song. Give the original a listen and you'll see that the Beatles were not just "conforming to the style of the era". Even then, they were updating and redefining that style.

[@stefanoallari2154]

I read that George Martin said once that not including "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "Penny Lane" in Sgt Pepper was a "dreadful mistake". I would agree with him, and because of that my personal list has "Magical Mystery tour" at the top.

[@GdF420]

Stefano Allari That is why I do not consider Magical Mystery Tour (and of course Yellow Submarine) technically to be a 'real' Beatles album, since Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields were previously released as a single record. Same for All You Need Is Love. Magical Mystery Tour Album was actually an EP containing only 6 songs in it's original UK release in 1967 (movie soundtrack). But the 'full' album was indeed released for the U.S. market also in 1967 (including the 3 above mentioned singles), and much later in 1976 for the UK.

[@kelcornett1447]

Yeah you don't find people using the chord progressions the way they did today. Very unusual chord progression. I think John Lennon dismissed it himself didn't he? He'd say 'that was just a piece hack I had to write songs it was my job. I'd put myself in phony situations just to come up with a number." The chord progression in "I am the Walrus" is odder still. "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" isn't really in one key. Its sort of A mixolydian but then it goes to B flat but its sorta in F and then briefly in D and then to G...then back to A mixolydian. You don't find much songwriting like that in popular music anymore. The average listener would be unaware how many times it switches keys.

This guy doesn't really know what he's talking about, the early Beatles albums are amazing, full of energy and invention, yes some of the lyrics are simple, but the chords and melodies and dazzling and brilliant.....

[@humandroid53]

Just listen to all the different intros on all those early songs.

[@zacjepps8192]

Your ability to speak does not make you intelligent

[@real_pancho9852]

He's young. I'm also guessing he doesn't know the difference between a dominant 7th and a major 7th.

[@yournan4013]

Real_Pancho ahhh shit forgot that makes your opinion more valid

[@marissaelias3325]

You have your your opinion he has his opinion.

[@Wayner71]

I agree with you about almost everything except the early stuff. Those early songs were very radical compared to everything else at the time. And to truly appreciate those songs one had to essentially live in the square world of 1962. They were arthouse in that age of doo-wop and commercial schmaltz. I reckon the best way to appreciate the Beatles is to dig all of it. Also, Magical Mystery Tour was an American album only. It was an EP (Extended Player) in the rest of the world. Songs such as Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane were singles in the UK not album tracks. One thing to keep in mind here is how the Sixties evolved and allowed progression. An Eleanor Rigby would not have been possible in the world of the early Sixties. The Beatles changed but so did the world they operated in if that makes sense.

[@johnmcdonald4881]

He does state that he is rating the albums uncontextiaully

[@davidbanan.]

You dont need to have been there, you just need perspective

[@theharvardyard2356]

Let it Be (naked) is my favorite and I think underrated, I love the concept of simplifying and getting back to their roots (it was originally titled "get back"), but with all of the experimentation and knowledge they gained through their career under their belts it's so much more interesting than their early work while still being pure, immediate and visceral (more so in the "naked" mix, which was how it was originally intended).

[@theharvardyard2356]

@RizeKrispy interesting, didn't know that. Fix as in like autotune? Where did you hear that?

[@ChaosKoopasPlays]

Naked is superior to the original in everyway, songs like The Long and Winding Road and Across the Universe sound infinitely better on this mix. One of my favorite Beatles albums.

[@betsyab121]

The idea behind Get Back sessions was to strip all the songs down and not add the instrumentation of their earlier albums, you are correct. It was supposed to be four guys playing their instruments (plus Billy Preston on keyboards courtesy of George Harrison). Paul McCartney was so angry with Phil Spector's arrangement of The Long and Winding Road, that he added that complaint in the lawsuit he brought against his former bandmates when they were in their infamous legal battles. I actually like the Naked version, also, and can't believe that I knew nothing about it until recently! Thank goodness for You Tube!

[@juliangiulio3147]

For me Let it Be & Rubber Soul are my two favourites. I love the warmth of the tracks on the former, + the ones he mentioned, and Get Back., -although it doesn't have 'Don't let me Down' on it)

[@ChaosKoopasPlays]

@@juliangiulio3147 He's referring to Let It Be (Naked), a remixed version of Let It Be which was released in 2003 (I believe). In this version Dig It and Maggie Mae were replaced by Don't Let Me Down

[@aidendecoto5244]

1-Abbey Road; 2-White Album; 3-Revolver;

I agree with you on almost every basis, but... Ob la di Ob la da?

[@fried-fishgaming7455]

Great song I’m glad I’m not the only one

[@ViscosityDemocracy_]

LIFE GOES ON

[@sleven8013]

Also think it's a fine song. Was on a McCartney concert some years back and it was really a highlight, when the whole arena was singing acapella.

[@shanegriffin9612]

People, please. It is filler. Nothing more.

[@psychonautic7779]

I love that song

[@will-foody]

With The Beatles: *has "It Won't Be Long," "All I've Got To Do," "All My Loving," "Till There Was You," "Please Mr. Postman," "You Really Got A Hold On Me"* This guy: "I can't even think of any songs on this album that really stick out to me"

[@dannymoulton4829]

Not a Second Time is an underrated masterpiece. Stunning vocals and drums.

[@Milo-fn1bj]

What about Devil in her heart?

[@Andremeda]

All I've Got To Do is one of my favourites !

[@amorim6447]

Don't bother me is cool too

[@jeremydraper733]

With the Beatles is easily better than please please me

[@jackhallman7172]

That whole time he was talking about Abbey Road he didn’t even mention “Here Comes the Sun” I know I sound cliche but you can’t deny how good it is.

[@Inferno41498]

Abbey Road is still my favorite Beatles album.

[@Inferno41498]

Beau Lijah Agreed. I still like Sgt Peppers Hearts Club band, but I think it gets too much praise.

[@mavisevelyn618]

i have only listened to 7 of their albums here is how i'd rank them 1. Sgt. Pepper (6/5) 2. Magical Mystery Tour (5/5) 3. Revolver (5/5) 4. Abbey Road (5/5) 5. Rubber Soul (4/5) 6. The White Album (3/5) 7. Let it Be (3/5) 2, 3 and 4 are really close

[@fowlae4414]

I don’t think they have any perfect records tbh, but they came awful close.

[@apolloptx]

One of the greatest bands of all time, in the top 3 with Zeppelin and Floyd.

[@foxynist9013]

Agree

[@chrismarple]

Apollo Alexandre the greatest*

[@jdrogl4219]

And rolling stone

[@fizzzpop6805]

Finally somebody who agrees! Being For The Benefit Of Mr. Kite! is an absolute masterpiece from Sgt. Pepper's. It is very creative and has some mind blowing instrumentation put into it. It is definitely somewhere in my top 20 Beatles songs and is the third best song on Pepper's.

[@magnolialindsey693]

dude it’s the Beatles you can’t just be like “It’s o k a y” hi, so people are getting heated at this comment and replying to it. my point is the beatles are the greatest band to ever live ( a popular opinion) and hes just saying their songs are “ok”. i just thought it was an understatement for the beatles.

[@BangkokBlend]

the beatles aren't immune to criticism, lol

[@victorburton9499]

You are right. This is RUBBISH. He has his wires badly crossed. The Beatles did not "conform to the popular sound of the time" they WERE the popular sound of the time. They CREATED and POPULARIZED music for the younger generation of the 60's. He needs to re-do ALL his research and re-write the script. This presentation is like a high school project, not to be taken seriously.

[@MrCastleburger]

Victor Burton Stop spamming the same comment in every comment thread. It is immature and you arent proving any point against this guy. The only point you are proving is how toxic beatles fans can get over disagreements (that toxic beatles fan being you)

[@theeoddments960]

Victor Burton lol I didn’t even notice that you post the same comment everywhere like a boomer asshole who can’t make opinions to different comments on the fly so you spent an hour creating a flimsy essay about the most broad bullshit imaginable because it has to make sense with every other generic comment you reply to

[@gizzy2403]

Its b/c of his age that those simple melodies & harmonies don't seem important, but they r what shaped & revolutionized music!

[@mazmitrenko7558]

You'll get the "sappy love songs" once you've had you heart broken a couple of times, kiddo

[@IFY0USEEKAY]

Ahh, the scars we carry on the inside...

[@thelastpersonalive]

As someone who has in there broken a lot it doesn't make them any better. If anything I gravitated more towards lonelier sounding music.

[@thequester7634]

Boomers tho.

[@DaveLennonCopeland]

I had a private bet with myself that he was gonna put Pepper at number one; he predictably did... You should call this video, "My favourite Beatles albums"...

[@hayden6700]

It's an opinion asshole. If you can't accept that then don't watch the video

[@JugaJuga14]

If he called it that he wouldn't have gotten any views though.

[@jackk.358]

Dude the fact that you predicted it is pretty contrary to what you’re saying isn’t it? It means that whatever opinion you have of The album led you to believe that this guy (who you don’t know) would put it #1. It means that at least subconsciously you think Sgt. Pepper’s is good enough to be considered the best

[@GdF420]

Dave Lennon-Copeland Rolling Stone Magazine put Sgt. Pepper at #1 on their best 500 albums of alltime list. But I agree with you, it's not my favorite Beatles album either

[@TXWkilljoy]

It's my favorite. What makes it not the best?

[@reecealeck8314]

“I’m only sleeping” is my favorite Beatles song

[@gianfrancorenda7090]

No songs sticking out on the With The Beatles album? Ever listened to All My Loving?

[@josesarango3408]

It won't be long, All I've got to do, Don't bother me, Till there was you, You really got a hold on me, Not a second time, Money...

[@ThisBirdHasFlown]

José Sarango The first four songs are honestly some of the best four opening songs in any album ever

[@georgecolombo]

From a guy who was there when the Beatles happened, I've got to say that I enjoyed this video a great deal. I don't necessarily agree with all of it but it's obviously a well thought out, well informed analysis.

[@SgtPeppersLonelyHeartsClubBand]

I think that he underrated the early beatles a little too much, they really werent that bad at all

[@solsubridens]

Rubber Soul will forever be in my top 5 favorite album of all time, it changed my late teen years (which I'm still on) and has influenced a lot in my music.

[@welsh_Witch]

'OB-la-di-ob-la-di is just filler' *stabbing sounds* "OB-la-di-OB-la-di life goes on brah"

[@christopherhaigh7899]

My favourite Beatles song is Day Tripper, perfect pop song sadly not on an album.

[@AnyoneCanSee]

This is a pretty good list of what was recorded at which sessions and how to put them onto the albums they were recorded for. For example the Rubber Soul recording sessions included “We Can Work It Out” and “Day Tripper” and I added them to the albums on my playlist. ontherecords.net/2017/11/the-beatles-singles-left-off-albums.

[@KPJ311]

A Day in the Life is easily their best song.

[@g2tennis]

It's their biggest song, although I find Strawberry Fields Forever better

[@alexisruiz9051]

Kevin Johnson here let me fix that for you let I be is easily their best song.*

[@Glicksman1]

"Tomorrow Never Knows"?

[@CasuallyJapan]

Glicksman1 best song while high*

[@Glicksman1]

High on what?

[@Scoffslaphead72]

I agree that ringo was one of the beatles.
