Battle of the Beatles Songs II - New for 2011

Pasag suggested this and I think it would be a great idea.

Anyone wanna run it?

I don't mind doing it actually, I reckon I can make a better fist of it than I did Battle of the Test matches. But I wouldn't mind someone else helping out in case I'm not online for a while.

So, I propose, 64 songs. Usual rules, nominate then second

Has definite potential this. To paraphrase butch Oscar "he who is tired of The Beatles is tired of life or a bearded music snob who always wears a suit."

The only problem is that Yellow Submarine was a Lennon-McCartney composition
