Beatles Songs Ranked

Let the debate begin! Jamsfour_2_iconBio magazine has ranked Beatles songs from #185 down to #1. This is an amazingly comprehensive list with each song streamed for your listening pleasure. I can’t imagine how many hours and six packs of Jolt Cola it took to compile the list, annotate and defend each songs ranking on said list.

Typically I hate lists because no one ever makes a top (enter arbitrary number here) list of things that a group of people aren’t passionate about somewhere. If there was a list compiled of the top 10 cotton balls manufacturers on the market today by the end of the debate those cotton balls would end up needing to be used to apply hydrogen peroxide to gaping wounds. Why do we continue to do this to ourselves?
