Which of the Beatles do you think was the most talented? Top 10 Songs You Didn't Know Were Written By David Bowie ua-cam.com/video/lHqKWCzxzdA/v-deo.html Top 10 Songs You Didn't Know Were Written By Elton John ua-cam.com/video/b3oScoYDYNY/v-deo.html
Lennon, McCartney and Harrison all had different talents, so it's an impossible question to want an answer for. If You want a " true " answer to that, You'll have to narrow down the question considerably....
Paul McCartney was the most talented Entertainer of them. John Lennon had a bigger talent for being a Rock Star. George Harrison come in on a good third place. And Ringo's talent was mainly the drums department.
That's like asking what's your favorite food,lol! Love them all!! Whatever suits my taste at that time, they're all EXCEPTIONAL, AMAZING PEOPLE AND MUSICIANS,can't pick just one have to have them all
You can't say Paul McCartney didn't spend his entire creative life making others more creative and famous. Had he not been born to this world or lost prematurely the volume of his creative productions would have been impossible to fill and their impact on the world of pop music during his incredible lifetime is immeasurable.
@finch45lear I love that song. Have you ever heard George's demo? It would have been so cool if they would have decided to remix it into a duet with them switching off lead vocals.
@@robertl8481 It was done by two Beatles, Therefore it is a Beatles song that was written by a BEATLE and performed by a Beatle. Stop trying to be clever. You're not. You're insecure and looking for attention now SKOOT!
I honestly never understood the Beatles/Stones rivalry, where you either liked one or the other. I loved both. They were both very different musically, but both were incredible at the time. Both bands were massive influences on my developing musical tastes throughout the 60's.
@@rafaa151 Oh no. There really was a "rivalry". Even to this day you hear people say they were either Beatles or Stones fans. The Beatles were the nice, fun-loving ones. While the Stones were the naughty boys.
@@midnite_rambler Didn't the press try to concoct rivalries between not only the Beatles and the Stones, but the Dave Clark Five and also the Kinks--not sure about Herman's Hermits. I don't think Freddie and the Dreamers was included.
Die Rivalität bestand eher zwischen den jeweiligen Fans. Ich bin unheilbar an Beatlemania erkrankt, aber einige Stones Songs mag ich auch. Die Beatles und die Stones haben sich ganz gut verstanden.
I have to say The White Album was my first record. Sargent Peppers was 2 Magical Mystery Tour 3. And I enjoy some stones, but they are not even in my top 20 of bands, And I only had 1 album I bought in my teens, and it just didn't get played.i liked The Who way more than the stones. It isnt a Beatles vs Stones at all. Just a preference in that distinct sound. It just came to mind, I hate RUSH because of that distinctive sound they have. Wonder if other Beatles over stone people feel the same about Rush.
Actually they co-wrote it, as the story I've heard. I don't think Ringo would have taken full credit for the songwriting on that if he hadn't been involved at all. And also the group backing him up is Badfinger!
Thanks for this video, very informative! Love LOVE both Lennon's and McCartney's talents, and it's so fun to learn they contributed so much to other artists' hits, that's amazing! None of the Lennon-penned tunes came as any surprise to me. But Lennon never had quite as much of a musical head on him, tune-wise, even George Martin said so. Their gifts were: Lennon lyrics - Mac melodies. I've long heard it said you can read Lennon, and you can hum McCartney - I think that's true! But that's why they made such a good team - so awesome!!!!!
The whole was greater than the sum of the parts. Their chemistry was amazing. Four brilliant lads together made a "fifth something", and that was the Beatles. We will never see their like again. I am only glad I was alive at the same time they were. And I am SOOOOO happy we still have Paul and Ringo with us!
Once again, women proving they judge music by the looks of the performer Add to that that young females have always bought the most music. In the 50s Elvis sucked and Roy Orbison was the most talented. Roy didn't have the looks that girls liked ,Elvis did. females destroyed the music industry because they only bought music that was done by the looks of the guys in the band.
"It's For You" is on "Three Dog Night Captured Live at the Forum" but it sounds totally different . James Brown sampled "Fame". "Come and Get It" is on one of the Beatle Anthology collections.
@@georgecourtney5878 this song is called "It's For You" and is credited to Lennon and McCartney. And "If Not For You" is a Bob Dylan composition that Harrison recorded...Harrison didn't write it but I love Harrison's version more than Dylan's.
Never knew that Keith Moon recorded 'Move Over Miss L.' Only familiar with John Lennon's version. Quite remarkable that the Beatles established Apple Records not only to record their own music, but also help other less well known artists get their music out there. Do not know of any group before or since offhand who has ever done that.
Alot of musicians recorded and wrote/practiced there. There was also collaboration between them. They just wander around and listen in on each other when time permitted.
when The Beatles broke up none were even 30 yet imagine if they had stuck it out all those 70's classics done by them (band on the run,imagine,it don't come easy, give me love), the sales figures would take an already staggering total to the trillions
@@StuartQuinn Probably so, then just type Beatles instead of showing only the other three members of the band. It makes Ringo look like a meaningless, useless member of the Beatles.
Lennon made the "briefest lyrical contributions" that was "enough" to give him co-writing credit on Fame. Bowie later said that Lennon was the "energy" and the "inspiration" for "Fame", and that's why he received a co-writing credit.
The riff on Fame is John's and you first hear john play it on the fade in to Helter Skelter on bass guitar in 1968 (yes John played bass guitar on Helter Skelter).
It's a Paul song. This video is riddled with errors. "Hello Little Girl", one of John's first compositions written as a teenager was written for the Fourmost? Pfft.
I can just hear the Beatles singing Bad To Me as a group. It would have been a great Beatles tune, but they were so prolific they could afford to give away some of their best songs!! 😅
This video is all over the place. It get's it wrong right off the bat, headlining It's For You as a Lennon composition. It was basically by McCartney. He demo'd it and brought it in to the studio. John was present at the studio with Cilla and George Martin and they all made arrangement suggestions but it was a McCartney song. You've got I Call Your Name confused with I'll Keep You Satisified. You say they recorded the latter themselves after being underwhelmed by B J Kramer's version, but that was I Call Your Name, which BTW wasn't released "the album Long Tall Sally in the UK". That album was a Canadian excusive. I Call Your Name was only on an EP in the UK That Means a Lot - with John's picture shown all the way through, grossly misleading. It's well known to be a mainly McCartney effort. "It's clear to any fan John's finger prints are all over it" ?? I don't think so. I Wanna Be Your Man - "while many credit Paul as being the primary songwriter, the story goes that it was actually John who finalised the track", inventing a nonexistent contradiction and implying it was mainly John on his own. More BS. Whose story? According to John it was "a kind of *lick Paul had* ...I think *we* finished it off for the Stones… Mick and Keith had heard that we had an unfinished song *Paul had this bit and we needed another verse* or something. We sort of played it roughly to them and they said, ‘Yeah, OK, that’s our style.’ So *Paul and I just went off in the corner of the room and finished the song off* Fourth of July - "never been officially credited to McCartney" You can listen to his home demo. Find it on UA-cam.
Years ago I heard a different version of "Cat Call" which at the time went under the name "Catwalk" and had sort of a late 50's guitar arrangement reminicent of The Shadows.
Bad Finger wa recording at Apple Studio's and was heavily influenced by the Beatles. One of my favs "Baby Blue" has very beatle like instrumentals/vocals.
Actually ‘That Means A Lot’ is featured on The Anthology Part 2. Paul is singing it live and it sounds very much a Paul song and he sings it with bravado in typical Paul fashion. It’s really something. The fact that he’s singing it suggests he wrote it.
My favorite is always John Lennon even though he is an angel and a bastard George hit the nail on the head with that one. But I do wonder what songs Ringo gave away if any
There's been hundreds of cover versions of Beatles songs, but Bring Me The Head of the Preacher Man by Siouxsie and the Banshees (not really known by the general public as far as I know) is the one in my mind that just totally came out of left field and blew the doors off of it!
The Beatles had many facets, Lennon's music was always grittier, McCartney's sweeter. Between them & George's eastern influence & Ringo's solid drumming they often hit heights no one else has attained. Great early blues/rock, beautiful hippy era music, soothing ballads & a strong Message here & there.
Lennon had some lyrical songs also, like Here, There and Everywhere, and Imagine, And McCartney had gritty songs also, like Why Don't We Do It in the Road?, and, at least if you're talking about themes, For No One, Eleanor Rigby, She's Leaving Home, and The Long and Winding Road.
Mull of Kintyre is my absolutely, hands down favorite song by anything Beatle related. I don't care much for any of their other songs, but Mull of Kintyre is gold, by Paul and after he left the Beatles. Marriage to Linda was good for him.
@@fredbloggs6080 Mull of Kintyre is family centered. That's why I love it. The joys of children. When I became a parent, that was the song that had meaning.
I am a record collector and Long Tally Sally is an EP that means an extended play single, with usually two tracks on either side, not an LP or album, which a 12" record usually containing more than four tracks. Vinyl records came in several types, the single, the EP, the LP ( also referred to as an album ), the 12" single and the much rarer 33rpm single, of which I have an example, Temptation by New Order.
Brian Epstein gave George Martin a 10 inch acetate of Beatle songs to stimulate his interest. As I recall it was Hello Little Girl / Till There Was You. I bet that's worth a bob or two now! 😹
@@johnbyrnes7912 The 10" was a format that was done for jazz recordings, when records were on shellac, the material used before vinyl existed. Maybe Martin's family still own that acetate, or else it's in EMI's archives.

This video is misleading. These songs are not "by the Beatles" they were written by one of the Beatles. The titles suggests these songs are inspired by Beatles songs or covers that we didn't realise
How on earth does it suggest they are songs “inspired by the Beatles”? I’m not sure what it is you find misleading. When you say a song is “by” so-and-so, I take that to mean that so-and-so wrote that song. What else could that possibly mean? In each case, the songwriter was a Beatle, ergo they were all written by Beatles. What’s the false claim there? That they weren’t written by ALL the Beatles? No, they weren’t written by MULTIPLE Beatles, but neither were the vast majority of songs the Beatles actually recorded themselves.
@@fromchomleystreet, are you incapable of seeing a difference between 1 and 4 persons? Cause it looks like. Or are you just US american and therefore unable for basic math?
Actually, I knew that Fame was co-written by Lennon and David Bowie, I also knew that Bad to Me was a Lennon-Mccartney. I also knew that Come and get it was written by McCartney. For Godsake it is on the Third Anthology Album
@kwgm8578 I knew Ringo appeared in the Magic Christian yes. I even saw a brief clip of the film on a vhs tape that I once had. Didn't, however, know that Come And Get it was featured in the film. That said I've heard Macca's version on Anthology 3 and it is probably better than Bad Fingers version.
@@josephcooter5763 It was a great film for the time, although, I'm not certain that it aged well. Having first heard the tune on a low-fi car radio, I thought Paul sang it until I saw the film and heard the recording in a theater.
Wow. I'm in Love is one of my favorite Lennon compositions and I think the Beatles could of made a hit out of it (which I don't believe it was for the Fourmost). To think that he practically forgot that he wrote it... It has classic Lennon/McCartney all over it!
That song It's For You sounds really good. Fame is my friends favorite. That song sounds like the Beatles Your not Bad to Me. I got into some poison oak in the mountains. It's not a song, but it feels like mosquito bites.
I listen to John Lennon's solo/Ono-inspired/post-Beatles stuff a lot, I always thought "Move over Miss L" was "Move over MICHELLE!" Lol 🤣 Like a call back to The Beatles' "My Michelle". This is one of those mondegreens that I actually prefer to the real lyrics.
I'm sure that everybody knows this, but "Fame '90" (released with a 1990 compilation) is what is used here. I have a strong preference for the original from 1975.
Yeah, this video doesn't even mention ELO, Jeffrey Lynne was considered the 5th Beatle, listen to "so serious" Ringo, and George Harrison singing back up, I know someone had to help Jeff write "shangri-la" the ending of "Mr. Blue sky is John Lennon fingerprint,
I already knew these but I grew up in the 60s and 70s. At the time I could see why they gave these away. And Fame wasn't written by Lennon. He contributed the guitar and vocals but it was a Bowie tune.
Wrong! The riff on Fame is John's and you first hear John play it on the fade in to Helter Skelter on bass guitar in 1968 (yes John played bass guitar on Helter Skelter).
Paul's got my choice even I love some of John' songs too. But Paul's have this kind of british lush poetry that make me feel like walking in an Avengers episode or meet Alice in Wonderland...
Paul without a doubt is my favorite Beatle and I believe, the most talented. When I read about his being snubbed by Jan Wenner of Rolling Stones Magazine with his 1st album as a solo artist all because Lennon and Wenner were friends it really got to me. Yet how professional Paul's response was made him without a doubt the greatest example of what a huge talent should act like in the public's eye.
Incorrect title..these are songs written by the beatles members for other artists like Badfinger, ringo starr, gerry and the pacemakers, mary hopkins etc
It’s for you was written by Paul , not John: “I wrote it for Cilla. That’s not a bad little song. I remember when we first went over to America, plugging it to all these DJs, we used to talk to endlessly, ‘Look, there’s this girl singer in our stable and you should listen out for this song.’ It didn’t do very well. I ended up writing a few songs for Cilla, actually. Paul McCartney Many Years From Now, Barry Miles

McCartney also wrote the Phoebe Snow hit "Every Night".
The Rolling Stones/Beatles kerfuffle was just a promotional gambit by the Stones management.
You can hear John's voice on "Fame"
I think the Beatles loved the Reggae covers of their songs, but I can't quite picture them getting Funky like Fame.
Cilla was a great friend with the beatles from the cavern
Yes, and she and Ringo had known each other since they were kids
Supposedly, she was the hat-check girl.
Lennon made the "briefest lyrical contributions" that was "enough" to give him co-writing credit on Fame. Bowie later said that Lennon was the "energy" and the "inspiration" for "Fame", and that's why he received a co-writing credit.
I would expect that Bowie was really thrilled to have Lennon's name attached to the writing credit 4 Fame. Who wouldn't be?

In each case, the songwriter was a Beatle, ergo they were all written by Beatles. What’s the false claim there? That they weren’t written by ALL the Beatles? No, they weren’t written by MULTIPLE Beatles, but neither were the vast majority of songs the Beatles actually recorded themselves.
@@fromchomleystreet, are you incapable of seeing a difference between 1 and 4 persons? Cause it looks like. Or are you just US american and therefore unable for basic math?
The title is a little misleading, but as soon as Fame came up, I got the concept.
@@DaveMcIroyshut up and now to the beatles
Actually, I knew that Fame was co-written by Lennon and David Bowie, I also knew that Bad to Me was a Lennon-Mccartney. I also knew that Come and get it was written by McCartney. For Godsake it is on the Third Anthology Album
Hope teacher gives you gold star.
Did you know that Ringo co-starred with Peter Sellers in the film that featured this song?
@kwgm8578 I knew Ringo appeared in the Magic Christian yes. I even saw a brief clip of the film on a vhs tape that I once had. Didn't, however, know that Come And Get it was featured in the film. That said I've heard Macca's version on Anthology 3 and it is probably better than Bad Fingers version.
@@josephcooter5763 It was a great film for the time, although, I'm not certain that it aged well.
Having first heard the tune on a low-fi car radio, I thought Paul sang it until I saw the film and heard the recording in a theater.
Wow. I'm in Love is one of my favorite Lennon compositions and I think the Beatles could of made a hit out of it (which I don't believe it was for the Fourmost). To think that he practically forgot that he wrote it... It has classic Lennon/McCartney all over it!
That song It's For You sounds really good. Fame is my friends favorite. That song sounds like the Beatles Your not Bad to Me. I got into some poison oak in the mountains. It's not a song, but it feels like mosquito bites.
Beales did the beter version of I wanna be you man.
Goodbye is such a good song.
"A world without Love"
Ich dachte schon immer, daß dieser Song sehr nach Lennon/McCartney klingt. ❤
Three Dog Night tore Its For You up!
I listen to John Lennon's solo/Ono-inspired/post-Beatles stuff a lot, I always thought "Move over Miss L" was "Move over MICHELLE!" Lol 🤣 Like a call back to The Beatles' "My Michelle". This is one of those mondegreens that I actually prefer to the real lyrics.
"Fame" and "come and get it". I just saved you 37:30 of your life
Well, I guess SOME people didn't know.
I'm sure that everybody knows this, but "Fame '90" (released with a 1990 compilation) is what is used here. I have a strong preference for the original
from 1975.
For all the Beatleologists out there. What was the only Harrison /Starkey composition to hit the US no1 charts?
Photograph?
@@randyjordan5521 Yes, thanks
It don't come easy? Photograph?
@@RobertGraziose Photograph 1973.
bro didn't even include ringo in the thumbnail😭
The Beatles, The Stones, The WHO!:)
Like "Goodbye" and Come and Get it the best. It seems obvious to me why most of the other songs never made it to beatles albums.
My idol of course Sir Paul McCartney!
Yeah, this video doesn't even mention ELO, Jeffrey Lynne was considered the 5th Beatle, listen to "so serious" Ringo, and George Harrison singing back up, I know someone had to help Jeff write "shangri-la" the ending of "Mr. Blue sky is John Lennon fingerprint,
Mucho Mungo is a lovely tune
Badge was CO WRITTEN by Eric Clapton, George and Ringo.
Ringo was responsible for the line about the ducks how they live in the park.
George came up with the riff for Badge
Quite a few throw-away tunes.
The simple fact that you cut out Ringo's head clued me into skipping this video.
background music way too loud but cool episode thanks!
Not sure if this is well known or not but Ringo Starr, your number one You Didnt Know Were By The Beatles, was actually a member of the Beatles
I already knew these but I grew up in the 60s and 70s. At the time I could see why they gave these away. And Fame wasn't written by Lennon. He contributed the guitar and vocals but it was a Bowie tune.
John didn't write any of the music or words for "Fame". He just did that sample of the voice going down the scale.
Wrong! The riff on Fame is John's and you first hear John play it on the fade in to Helter Skelter on bass guitar in 1968 (yes John played bass guitar on Helter Skelter).
Badge is iconic as a song. Talking about a girl that looks quite like you.
according to google,anyone who had a heart was written by burt Bacharach and hal david for dionne warwick
Paul's got my choice even I love some of John' songs too. But Paul's have this kind of british lush poetry that make me feel like walking in an Avengers episode or meet Alice in Wonderland...
Why are you using the crappy 80s version of Fame?
The title of this should be "Top Songs That Most People Know Were Written Or Co-written By At Least One Beatle or Former Beatle"
FROM A WINDOW. McCartney also wrote for the Everly Brothers.
Paul without a doubt is my favorite Beatle and I believe, the most talented. When I read about his being snubbed by Jan Wenner of Rolling Stones Magazine with his 1st album as a solo artist all because Lennon and Wenner were friends it really got to me.
Yet how professional Paul's response was made him without a doubt the greatest example of what a huge talent should act like in the public's eye.
Come and Get it later appeared on Anthology 3
That Means a Lot was on Anthology 2
I knew that each of these were WRITTEN by a Beatle
Incorrect title..these are songs written by the beatles members for other artists like Badfinger, ringo starr, gerry and the pacemakers, mary hopkins etc
Man when you hear those chords shirfing unexpectedly it just seems Lennon!
Don't forget Ringo's I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends
Veronica is my fave Costello song!
"Shipbuilding" is mine.
I occasionally watch these Mojo lists, just to see how bad they are, and how much they miss the mark, but this one was pretty good.
What about Joh Denver on "Mother Nature's Son"?
Very Lennon oriented. Paul had some greats
Yes
People will be listening to the beatles in 2124
WRONG. Bowie worked with Lennon again to record a cover of Lennon's Beatles song "Across the Universe"; Lennon played rhythm guitar on the cover.
And the Playlist Man?
You remembered “I’m the Greatest” by Lennon but not the superior “Photograph” by George Harrison???
I was understanding that Ringo wrote “I want to be your man” hmmm interesting. Dr Gus Greenfield approved.
Aside from "FAME", it sounds like they took a lot of their rejects, and gave them to someone else.
Actually, We did know ......
John Lennon wrote a song that Australian band made famous Hush Bonnie Maroney John sang it as a ballad as the Australians pepped it up into rock
Who’s that guy in the middle?
It’s for you was written by Paul , not John:
“I wrote it for Cilla. That’s not a bad little song. I remember when we first went over to America, plugging it to all these DJs, we used to talk to endlessly, ‘Look, there’s this girl singer in our stable and you should listen out for this song.’ It didn’t do very well. I ended up writing a few songs for Cilla, actually.
Paul McCartney
Many Years From Now, Barry Miles
A world without love is the only really good song. The Beatles knew very well which songs were going to be commercial failures.
I would have given anything to be that Gorden guy.
Step inside love?
Four five seconds?
You knew those ones, so they couldn't be included 😜
some part written e.g. "FAME"
Fame is not a Beatles song!
