Quote: Griff @ July 19 2009, 11:10 PM BSTI just started reading through a list on Wikipedia to try and pick favourites and it became impossible. So I'm just going to say all of 'em.
Yeuch! You like Ob-la-di-ob-la-da! You smell!
I like lovely Rita Meter Maid.

I like the psychedelic-ness of it. 
Quote: SlagA @ July 19 2009, 10:47 PM BSTI do too, even though the Beatles didn't voice the animated characters.
Didn't Geoffrey Hughes, aka Onslow from Keeping Up Appearances, do the voice for Paul McCartney?
Oh, and Heather Mills didn't really say she'd never heard of the Beatles, did she? I thought she just said she hadn't known how big they'd been.

Is she a traffic warden or a prostitute?
Just to link The Beatles to sitcom, after Lovely Rita is Good Morning Good Morning which is the only Beatles song to mention a sitcom. The lyric is 'Everyone you see is full of life, it's time for tea and MEET THE WIFE' Meet the wife was a 1960's sitcom by On the Buses creators Ronnie Wolfe and Ronnie Chesney starring Freddie Frinton and Thora Hird which aired between 1963-1966. What a top lyric that was.

Sir Billy Bragg had a song title referencing a sitcom, i.e. Life With The Lyons (which Sir Billy spelt Life With The Lions). I really must get out more.
Norwegian Wood and Blackbird. By the way Norwegian Wood transcribes very well for big band. The trombonist is a genius! Here have a listen.

Best thing Phil Collins ever did
I love Norwegian wood, and scandanavain boners.

He also did a cover of Tomorrow Never Knows.
Quote: Fred Sunshine @ July 19 2009, 10:32 PM BSTWhat about least favourites?
Obla di Obla dah always gets on my nerves.
And I'm sure there's a few on the White Album.
Honeypie?
Most of Ringo's songs.

What about Help!
Quote: Jack Massey @ July 19 2009, 10:45 PM BSTHoneypie's good, Wild Honey Pie is painful. I'm also not keen on Yellow Submarine to be honest. But the worst Beatles song is the final track on Revolver titled Tomorrow Never Knows. Shocking stuff, but to be fair, bad Beatles songs are a very rare thing.
No - it's a great song.
Yes, but obviously that was a sitcom that was on forty years after the song and was just sharing the word, it isn't a direct mention to it like Meet the Wife was.
