Heh well I've already answered but this thread should definitely get back on track.

I did however miss Shout It Out Loud off my list.

Just thought I'd mention that little titbit.
I've always thought Live Foever was Oasis's most annoying song
I just can't stand it

I love how Imagine is put up there in rock n roll lists. It's not even a rocker, for one. And more importantly it's not even close to being one of John Lennon's best compositions.

It IS a rock song, though. I see where you're coming from however.

Any list compiled by the media is in general not worth the paper its printed on.

yeah but, on the topic of imagine, it wasn't even john lennon's 60th best composition imo. it doesn't tell one anything about what the real essence of his music was, and i think i also regard it as one of his blandest numbers.

It's a popular opinion.

I cant help but wonder what peoples opinions on the song would have been if it wasn't so popular and held in such high regard for all these years.

I enjoy the song but It's not one of my favourites.

I can't help but wonder what peoples opinion on John Lennon would be if he didn't run around saying things like "Imagine there's no heaven," "all you need is love" and "woman is the ****** of the world."

They'd probably say "he was (or is) a great moptop pop songsmith who remeinds me of Paul MacCartney in many ways" is probably what they would say had he not met yoko.

Nah. Lennon was always cooler than Macca. Of course it helps that he became immune from any further criticism after being killed in 1980, so he was never able to become quite the utter joke that Paul turned out as almost 30 years later. But yeah, John was the public wit, John was the "intellectual", John had the personality.

But Ringo was by far the coolest Beatle. He just exuded cool.
