I am trying to think about what exactly is wrong with 'Beautiful Boy'...good song IMO. Solo Lennon did do some crap though. Do you not think that 'Imagine' has simply been overplayed? I can't be arsed with it, but I am not sure that it isn't that it gets drummed into over the years |

Anyhow, Paul for mine. Don't know why, my favourite couple of Beatles songs are probably Lennon tunes, but in general I think i just about prefer Macca's stuff. Think he gets grossly underrepresented sometime when people talk about Lennon being the innovator. You say that without A Day in the Life and Lucy in the... there might not have been a prog rock, but whose idea was Sgt. Peppers? And the second side of Abbey Road? Lennon started as the stronger Beatles but from 66/67 he was becoming disinterested and McCartney (and Harrison) kept the group going, this is when some of the best stuff was released. His solo material is a bit hit and miss, there is some very poor stuff out there, but also amidst it some good stuff, I still haven't purchased his McCartney album but there are some very good songs on there. He did a few decent tunes in the wake of Britpop as well, undoubtedly inspired by the Oasis-led interest in The Beatles. He was also a very witty lyricist in his day, and of all The Beatles he stayed truest to his roots. Lennon was I think a US citizen by the time of his death, Harrison had a very transatlantic accent and Ringo sounds a bit posh, there is nothing wrong with any of this but as a Merseysider you have to love Macca and the way he still spends so much time round here

WRT Imagine, I think you're right to some extent. Repetition has paled it quite a lot, but whenever I hear it I can't help but think that if John had've known it'd be so ubiquitous he'd have spent a bit longer on the lyrics. He couples "try" with "sky", "do" with "too" & "can" with "man"; you can almost hear the rhyming dictionary being turned. Quote:
As for McCartney staying close to his roots, I wouldn't have said East Sussex was that close tbh.
