Yes, Happiness Is a Warm Gun isn't very good.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

I’m voting for Help!, a song I love. At this point there are no right answers. Just less wrong answers.

Yup. Of all their big songs, it's one that is slighter. After that one goes, Heston's medley is next on my list.

She Loves You is great, but in comparison to what else is up there, it's a pile of manure.

It’s a good song. Just such an anticlimax to the process.

What are the alternatives? Vote for a lesser song in the name of unpredictability? This has always been about the journey really.

Yup. The results are secondary to me than the conversations along the way. Still, if we want to be contrarian, we could go with "Tomorrow Never Knows" …  :shifty:
