I'm sure this iconic band who needs no introduction has impacted our lives in one way or another, and their music remains as a timeless, staple reflection of pop culture. (or essientially, everything else)
I can say that they have changed the way I've looked at music and still continue to do so and I pretty much grew up listening to them, (then again, who doesnt?) alongside U2, Ryan Adams & Death Cab for Cutie contributing to my musical diet.
So, I thought it would be interesting to know what are the 10 songs, although I know it's never enough, which you guys can't live without.

In no order of merit, here are my picks:

Happiness is a Warm Gun
Strawberry Fields Forever
Hey Jude
The Long and Winding Road
Blackbird
In My Life
While My Guitar Gently Weeps
A Day in the Life
I Am the Walrus
Let It Be

The thing is this list isn't definitive; it changes with the differing phrases in my life, depending on how the songs speak to me at that exact point in time. The only definitive thing is that the music of The Beatles is existential and eternal and Kurt Vonnegut totally nailed it when he said:
"I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did.' "
Amen.

I am a fan of these:

1. While My Guitar Gently Weeps
2. Helter Skelter
3. Blackbird
4. Taxman
5. I'm Only Sleeping
6. I'm Looking Through You
7. The End
8. Hey Bulldog
9. Come Together
10. Here Comes The Sun

I also love shed loads more. Just for the record I can play every Beatles track on guitar even the rarities! Such good song writers and some of the progressions are to die for.

This is way too hard.

I'll have a go when I have more time though.

You can play all their songs? wow, that's very cool. I don't think I've got the patience to learn all of them, except for those which I really, really love. Haha
And btw, Blackbird was the first song I've ever learnt on a guitar.

I'll try and do this without picking the blindingly obvious tracks so here goes:

Happiness Is A Warm Gun
A Day In The Life
She Came In Through The Bathroom Window
Yer Blues
Tomorrow Never Knows
Drive My Car
Hey Bulldog
Across The Universe
Revolution 1
Maxwell's Silver Hammer

Happiness Is A Warm Gun appears to be the most popular Beatles track so far.

I love The Breeders' cover of that song.

That is because it is an amazing and dark song.
