The White album is unbearable spare "Dear Prudence" and "Black Bird,"

I like 'Julia' and 'Helter Skelter' as well from that album though.

I usually say it's between Happiness is a Warm Gun and Eleanor Rigby, and only one of them is up there so... Eleanor Rigby

I voted A Day in the Life because unlike those other tracks, it was handily my favorite track on the album. I think that without it, Peppers really isn't that strong of an album (I don't know why it always got so much hype, personally), but as an ending, it draws the album to a close with such emotion.

I Want You (She's So Heavy) for me, with A Day In The Life a close second.

Maybe the Pop forum doesn't get as much attention as the other ones.
