My favorite Beatle was John Lennon.
I think because I enjoyed his music
after the Beatles more than anyone elses.
Plus I was really deepenly saddened by his death.
My favorite Beatle song was: Hmmmmmmmmmm
Helter Skelter Maybe I don't really have a favorite song...they are all
favorites!
Full Version: Who was your favorite Beatle?
For me it has to be George Harrison. Everyone goes on about Lennon and McCartney, but Harrison wrote 'While my guitar gently weeps' IMO the greatest Beatles song.
George Harrison definately!
George harrison here too.
I like them all.
Mind you i dont think John Lennon was as saintly as he is made out to be.
Still great band.
My fav album Sgt Peppers an fav song is the title song, i love come together too.

Isnt he a career guidance councilor now?
I like both Ringo Starr and John Lennon...
Ringo for his voice; since I like it
And John Lennon for that song I really like...something about imagining theres no heaven, and stuff.

I like Ringo Star, or Richard Starky for Beatles freaks. He just never got any credit.
I think Ringo narrates that kids program..Thomas the tank engine.
That show scares me. Those faces on those trains are eeevill...

My favorite Beatle was John Lennon because he wasn't afraid to say what he thought
Of course Paul & John...

...yeah me too......
I like Ringo because he is the luckiest man alive. He is not an exceptionally talented drummer or song writer, he just happened to meet the right band shortly after they kicked out their drummer, and the rest is history. His position could have been filled by anybody, but his story really makes me believe in fate.
My favorite is Paul McCartney.
mines is the dynastinae also known as the rhinoceros beetle, !
they are usually fairly large and mainly brown or black in colour. the thorax plate of the males has one to five horns. with dynastes hercules from peru these can be up to 90 mm long. the beetles eat fruit and their larvae consume rotten wood or humus.
very interesting!

paul mccartney all the way!!! after the beatles, he had wings, and a solo thinger...i love his voice, and almost all of his songs...
ringo star is favorite person, "let it be" favorite song.
Lennon he seems the most intuitive of the bunch....plus the whole Yoko thing...that just amazes me for some reason....

Do you mean the split with the beatles? Or why he picked a plain looking girl who made him think when he could have had any trophy wife he wanted?

I don't care too much about the split as I have never really been a beatle's fan. I was intrigued by the relationship. Initially because she was plain...later because from what I've read about her not being nice. Julian Lennon said, Yoko would not let him have his father's belongings. Instead Yoko, gives them to charities that she likes. Julian then has to spend his money buying them back. I am always intrigued when people are propelled thru life with negative energy like that.
There was/is a rumour that still hasnt been put to bed that Lennon was having an affair and was planning on leaving Yoko before his life was ended (im not suggesting anything about the murder)!
MI5 also found evidence that Lennon gave money to IRA fronts which given his stance on violence would seem very strange (maybe Yoko behind his back).
IRA?

IRA?
I did not know that bleeding heart. That is interesting. I would not be surprised if those rumors were true. I believe that Yoko could have been able to push Lennon's buttons to that point. I shall have to look into that. Do you know if Julian has said anything about that?
Couldnt say im not really a beatles fan, with the exception of Harrison. It's just that coming from Liverpool they are very hard to avoid! Rumours especially
Thanks anyway BH...I guess I am off on a quest 
John Lennon, mainly because back in 1961 he asked my mum out on a date. She said no!! She married a plumber instead.
Unbelievable. I could have been filthy rich now!

I dunno...didn't Yoko get all his stuff...
The late John Lennon even tough its hard to choose just one " Imagine" is by far the best song Lennon and McCartney wrote ever !

true....
i love the beatles music but as a band theyre my mortal enemies.
yeah, yeah, im a rolling stones fan. both fomr liverpool.
I think my favorite would have to be Curly...Oh wait Beatles, right...
They are all rather amazing in their own way, so it would be really hard for me to pick one favorite. I can pick a favorite song though: Imagine. Very moving song, wonderful and thoughtful.
I have always been amazed that folks can write songs like that; that stuff is just floating around in their heads...What a gift!

I think you'll find that The Rolling Stones have no association with Liverpool whatsoever. They're all southern boys.
The quote button gone haywire DD thats not from me.

Really? Good Lord! No wonder you are Despondent Dave! You could've been
Dave.....uh.....Letterman, yeah.......instead!
But then again you might be a drugged out, lonely, cynical b*****d, with
no friends, no future and Yoko as a step-mom............
*shudders*
Paul, 'cos we share the same name. 
When I was (very) young my uncle got me a chocolate easter egg w/ a little figure playing a guitar and 'Paul' on it. I had no idea - then. Wonder what it would be worth now...?
'Helter Skelter' and 'Piggies' are particular faves, 'Revolver' best lp.

It is a great song but unfortuantely for Paul, he had nothing to do with writing this one......The Beatles had already split by the time this was released by John as a solo artist.
John would be my favourite but my favourite song ( at the mo' ) is " Something " by George Harrison.

Really A:21,
It sounds like you familiar with the southern territories. I could use a guide...for the sussex region...anything for science.
my favorite Beatle would most likely be John Lennon. He was an amazing person, very insightful and wrote some great songs(and some odd ones).

Science? Oh Geography!
As a county Sussex is quite long and narrow. If you travel too far south you will get soaked; too far in any other direction and you will stray into Surrey, Hampshire or Kent. Tourism, agriculture and finance are popular industries. A high proportion of elderly people live there, especially in coastal resorts such as Eastbourne, Worthing, Littlehampton and Bognor Regis (known to most as the last resort.) There are a lot of castles in Sussex, many of which are also elderly and often claimed to be haunted.
And, more to the point, Paul McCartney lives in Sussex.
oh quite informative... have you ever spotted Paul feeding a bird or eating a sandwich?
have you ever spotted Paul feeding a bird or eating a sandwich?
No. I feed sandwiches to birds and then eat them.
There's a lot of old rockers in Sussex. Bryan Ferry, Roger Daltrey, Keef Richard, Keith Emerson, Dave Mattacks, Leo Sayer, Adam Faith, Billy Idol, Ashley Hutchins, Helen McCookerybook, Ray Burns, Robert Smith all live or have lived there.

I'd much rather fry'em up with onions
and that whole list was lost on me I'm afraid...with the exception of Billy Idol...
My fave is David Gilmour, because he wasn't a Beetle.
He's from the much better band, Pink Floyd.

Minor correction:
David Gilmour is not from the band Pink Floyd.
David Gilmour is the band Pink Floyd.
...oh by the way, which one's Pink?
