John, really brought an experimental edge to the Beatles in the latter stages of their career, and his prolific songwriting always had a quality about it. Paul is a great pop songwriter, one of the best, whilst George was a very talented guy in his own right, but John is head and shoulders for me.
Plus he was a hugely important figure in the Vietnam war, i have a lot of respect for somebody who stands up for what they believe in to the extent that he did.
