Greatest band ever in my opinion but I could live without Yellow Submarine.
Which Beatle song(s) do you consider to be unenjoyable?

I find most of their songs to be unenjoyable. I respect them and understand they're great musicians and a great band but I just don't like their music.

I loathe Maxwell's Silver Hammer...Abbey Road is perfect without it

I could go without ever hearing The Long and Winding Road again. Boring fluff IMO.

Technically the questions is "recorded."

Probably, but I would say having 99% of your songs be good is pretty solid.

There's plenty of the random ones on the White Album that kinda suck. They just made such a massive amount of music with such a high percentage of greatness that people forget that some percent of their stuff is in fact shitty simply by the law of averages.

Not a fan of "Mean Mr. Mustard" or "A Day in the Life".

I think You've Got to Hide Your Love Away is dreadful. And, while All You Need Is Love may be an anthem for free love/hippiedom, it's insanely repetitive and just feels forced/unoriginal. Everything else is just fine IMO, even the bubbly pop hits.

Most people probably disagree, but I don't really like Hard Day's Night that much...its just ok to me.

I like Yellow Submarine.

Revolution 9 isn't very good at all.

Absolutely. They're very hit or miss with me.

Interesting question. The answer is NO. Here is my reasoning.. Obla Di Obla Da, Yellow Submarine, and maybe a couple of songs John or Paul wrote for Ringo to perform are not great songs, however, in comparison to a lot of recent music (Nickleback,Justin Bieber) and especially the whole decade of the 80's (White Snake, Mr Mister and several hundred others) they don't "suck". If you want to compare those songs to the majority of the remaining Beatles catalogue they may suck in comparison to their own songs. In terms of not enjoying a song, I would concur with the Yellow Submarine. I did really enjoy Yellow Submarine in my much younger years, but now I find it annoying. Anyone who doesn't appreciate or understand the rare collaboration of the Beatles/George Martin, need to sit down one day and try to write a song. Once they're done trying to write a song, or write a really bad song, they should put on Rubber Soul and listen to the entire album. After that, Abbey Road.. And so on and so fourth. Thank you and feel free to agree or tell me to stfu!

the only real Beatle songs i dont like are "do you want to know a secret," "long and winding road," and "....mr kite."

but i dont think they're bad songs at all.
