[@monovision566]

As a song on its own, I would not like Wild Honey Pie… but as an interstitial piece connecting the music on either side of it, I think it functions really well. It’s jarring and annoying, but somehow makes a great segue. Honey Pie I adore. Your Mother Should Know too. I don’t get the hate Obladi receives. It works for me.

I strongly disagree with whomever said that "Got to Get to You Into My Life" is one of the Beatles worst songs. That's a great song! There's also no way I'd include "The Long and Winding Road" among their worst songs. It's better than more than half of the songs on the Let It Be album.

[@carl_anderson9315]

Revolution 9 is not a bad song because it's not a song per se (or at least, not in the conventional general understanding of it). However, in my opinion, it is (like I Am The Walrus) another fantastic act of transgression towards the pre-conception of what a song is supposed to be, and another testament of The Beatles fearless approach to songwriting. And that's why I hate when other (great) artists like Lou Reed, Frank Zappa, or even Pete Townshend dared to accuse The Beatles of being just a commercial pop band. The Beatles walked territories no one dared to cross till that point. Take "Trout Mask Replica" (released the following year) and tell me there's no act of transgression there either.

Maxwell Silver Hammer is not horrendous, but I can't get over the fact that Paul took weeks of his bandmates' time to make this one, and I understand John's frustration about not having enough time to finish Across The Universe properly.

There's a pig snort on the mono version of Piggies that could bring down the capitalist system on its own. Revolution 1 (Take 18), which is up officially on YT, is the one that formed the starting point for Revolution 9. I find it weird that people would suggest You Really Got A Hold On Me (which I love) and not mention Hold Me Tight or Little Child on the same album, which are both pretty poor. But any list of their worst songs is going to be subjective. And even songs with (surely?) objectively poor lyrics like Baby You're A Rich Man and All You Need Is Love will have something that redeems them in the performance. (The end of Lovely Rita is an orgasm, right?)

IMO Hey Jude should have been on the album in it's place, or You Know My Name Look Up the Number would have been hilarious to include on the album instead as the next to last cut on side 4... just before Goodnight which Ringo sang.

I enjoyed this video of yours 👌😊 Answer to your question, what was my first reaction to Revolution 9? I was 15 at the time The White Album came out and I loved it very much in general. Revolution 9 was just an experimental track towards the end of that album and I found it cool that John got to put such a thing on an album, it just suited his image as the guy who does the crazy experimental stuff! But otherwise I didn't listen to that more than once. Later in life I actually listen to this whole sound collage maybe 2 or 3 times, but that's it. The album might have been even better if they left it off, but still I think it worked on the album.

I think saying that you don’t like a Beatles song is kind of like saying you don’t like opera… or country & western, or swing, or grunge or whatever, because every one of their songs is kind of like a little mini genre. Maybe the proper question is ‘did they do a bad job of it’ or even ‘do I actually get it’? Some people say certain Beatles songs suck because they think that’s some kind of golden ticket to coolness. Well yeah - when ignorance becomes cool! Actually I guess this happened about 30 years ago 😉

Certainly, everyone who has heard the group can name a handful of tracks that they could live without. I'm no different in that respect, but one of the tracks I would never even think of cutting is "Revolution 9". More than a simple collection of random sounds, it can be viewed as an apocalyptic vision. Lennon once remarked that he wanted the ending of "A Day in the Life" to build up from nothing to the end of the world. "Revolution 9" _is_ the screaming, chaotic end of the world. When viewed in this way, the album's closing track, "Good Night" transforms from a maudlin pop-song semi-parody into a chilling coda: "Now the sun turns out its light...", as in PERMANENTLY! "Good night. Everybody. Everywhere." Forever?

Here is the list (a lot of them are by George, 5, some are sung by Ringo, 3): "There's A Place", "I Wanna Be Your Man" (though this is still better than the Stones' version, :), Ringo sings ), "Mr.Moonlight" (not that bad, but I don't like it), "I'm Down" (this also isn't that bad, I don't like it), "Act Naturally" (Ringo sings), "You Like Me Too Much (George, that makes two songs from otherwise excellent album, "Help"), "What Goes on" (Ringo sings), "If I Needed Someone" (George, another case of two songs from otherwise marvelous album, "Rubber Soul"), "Baby You're Rich Man", "Blue Jay Way" (George), "Savoy Truffle" (George), "It's All Too Much" (George), "Carry That Weight" (not that bad, I don't like it), "Two of Us", "Dig a Pony", "I've Got a Feeling", three absolutely terrible Lennon-McCartney songs from this album. There were only two Lennon-McCartney songs made specifically for this album ("Let It Be"), the title song and "The Long and Winding Road" (destroyed by bad production) that are good.

[@ThrowShow2014]

I’m with you…The Beatles don’t have any awful songs, so “worst” is really subjective. I think that having “Why Don’t We Do It In The Road?”, “Wild Honey Pie”, and “Revolution 9” on the White Album and they left out George’s “Not Guilty” is their biggest musical crime as a group. Not including “All Things Must Pass” instead all of the filler stuff on “Let It Be” was pretty bad, too. The George quota thing was getting old fast.

It's definitely a "research area" anyway, which fans have accompanied the musical development of the Beatles throughout and which ones, at some point, with all the unusual sounds, jumped off. Incidentally, at least that's a personal effect, "Revolution 9" seems more intense, when one listen to the collage in absolute darkness.

[@russallert]

Even in comparison to their 60s cohorts like The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Kinks, The Byrds, etc., all of whom made great albums, The Beatles made incredibly good albums with comparatively few weak tracks. That said, there are a few Beatles songs that I personally dislike. When I'm 64 and Honey Pie are probably my absolute least favourites - Paul's music hall style doesn't appeal to me, and I thought The Kinks were better at translating that style into a rock context (eg. Dedicated Follower Of Fashion, A Well Respected Man, Sunny Afternoon, etc.). I also dislike the cover of Till There Was You, just because it's too loungey, and Paul is trying to appeal to the grandmas (his most annoying trait, musically). I also don't like the finished version of While My Guitar Gently Weeps, which to my ears is whining bummer music (yes, I know Clapton is on it and he's God, but I still don't like it) - on the other hand, I like George's acoustic demo of it, which is more subdued and sad, but less "bummed out". As for Revolution 9, I actually don't mind that one every once in a while, as I have a weakness for strange electronic music. Overall, all artists are human, and they can sometimes create work that is either substandard or just doesn't appeal to many people. The Beatles were no exception - they just produced much less crap than most other bands or artists. (God, this is long.......)

There are a lot of solo tracks, like Blackbird and Julia, but John is wrong when he says there isn't a single Beatles song. Birthday is a Beatles song; it was created in studio like Hey Bulldog. I would also argue that Glass Onion is a Beatles song. But what IS a Beatles song? Some people believe that there are no songs where all four Beatles play; there are in fact at least 13 (more if you count vocals). Surprise! Honey Pie is one of them! So is Ob-La-Di-Ob-La-Da!

Almost invariably when someone proposes a meaning they really don't like the artist backtracks instantaneously. "So you think that everyone left handed should be slaughtered on sight?" "No, no, no!"

it is not really a song --- a sound scape perhaps

There ya go

The Beatles had no bad songs. Some were better or worse than others. One I didn’t care for was Mr Moonlight. John’s vocal performance was great, but it was a cheesy song, songwriting-wise. Terrible.

[@larsland]

You're definitely not alone in that opinion on Mr Moonlight.

[@shaunstuart4623]

Oh yeah? How would you have liked to see them do it live? Definitely not cheesy!! (They didn’t write it though).

[@charlesbunch8383]

@@shaunstuart4623 Exactly. They didn't write it.

When john lennon was making this song with yoko he was quoted as saying “‘Avant-garde is French for bullshit”.....so, it was just an experiment high on heroin. ...

@@vincentvancraig ☺️ I did read off a few things that I cut out but this one wasn’t in the Wikipedia so out of sight out of mind lol. But I do know that quote!

Personal Beatles no-go's: "Tell me why", mainly because of the goofy falsetto part, that made me reflexively cover my ears. Then "I need you". Many like the track, for me the song is dull and doesn't work musically. A terrible arrangement. And: "The long and winding road". What a lame tearjerker. "Mother Nature's son" is borderline and for "Good Night" one would have to chastise the Beatles, to release something like that - but, hey, luckily they let Ringo sing it (I'm sure, Lennon's son didn't want the track, so Lennon thought to himself, Ringo will like it), so the seriousness is out and the Mantovani kitsch is at least a bit funny. Also with "Here, there and everywhere" and "Hold me tight" my enthusiasm is pretty limited...

[@larsland]

I’m going to steal “my enthusiasm is pretty limited.” That’s awesome.
