Most Influential Beatles Songs
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (November 1968)
George Harrison had already logged a few songwriting credits for the Beatles, notably ?Taxman? from the Revolver album, but it was this song from the White Album that finally solidified Harrison as a true peer to Lennon and McCartney.
"Hey Jude" (August 1968)
. Paul wrote "Hey Jude" for young Julian Lennon following the divorce of John and Julian's mother, Cynthia. While the song starts out with comforting lyrics and melody, it eventually moves into another realm as it builds to a chaotic and triumphant chorus in which McCartney seems to be trying to summon his own courage to fight on. Clocking in at over seven minutes, ?Hey Jude? features more than four minutes of Paul screaming over a chorus that consists of only the two-word song title and a bunch of na, na, nas.
"Strawberry Fields Forever"
Lennon once said growing up "was scary because there was nobody to relate to." Strawberry Field the place (a Liverpool children's home near where Lennon grew up) represented those haunting childhood visions. With this song, Lennon conquered them forever.
"Twist and Shout" – 'Please Please Me' (1963)
John Lennon's vocal performance or the song's use in 'Ferris Bueler's Day Off'? One thing that is for certain is that this song is one of the greatest covers of all time.
"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" – 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' (1967)
Even though the song isn't about drugs, its dreamy melodies certainly do lend themselves to a good trip. Alas, it's just a really catchy, charming tune inspired by a child's drawing.
"Across The Universe" – 'Let It Be' (1970)
John Lennon told 'Rolling Stone' in a 1970 interview, "It's one of the best lyrics I've written. In fact, it could be the best. It's good poetry, or whatever you call it, without chewin' it. See, the ones I like are the ones that stand as words, without melody. They don't have to have any melody, like a poem, you can read them." Of course, the dreamy melody doesn't hurt either.
