Members HeartfeltDawn Posted August 31, 2010 Members Share Posted August 31, 2010 My wife just came home with this little treat for me. Yawn. Rolling Stone dredging up the past again. I had an 18 month subscription in the past. The non-music articles were really interesting but the music featured was so boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members erksin Posted September 1, 2010 Members Share Posted September 1, 2010 A Day In The Life is certainly worthy of #1 (I mean come on - its a monumentally epic song), but I'd have a hard time not picking Paperback Writer - to me, it is as near perfection as any pop song has ever come.

Paperback Writer came in at 35. Paperback Writer b/w Rain is one of the greatest singles ever released on vinyl. What a ridiculously fat electric sound they achieved - so sonically sublime. ... and yeah, A Day in the Life is tough to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really not agreeing with "Rain" at #88 That's because you bought a pop culture magazine shilling someone else's opinion as if it were fact.

Members MrChrisos Posted September 1, 2010 Members Share Posted September 1, 2010 Man, who chooses this stuff. I want to hold your hand at 2? Meh. And as epic as Day in the Life is, I've never liked the 'woke up, got out of bed' bit - kinda cheesy and unexciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh.And as epic as Day in the Life is, I've never liked the 'woke up, got out of bed' bit - kinda cheesy and unexciting. But the "had a smoke, and I fell into a dream... aaahhh" transition? I can't imagine it working any other way. I agree, I want to hold your hand was pivotal for them, but not their 2nd best song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine it working any other way.I agree, I want to hold your hand was pivotal for them, but not their 2nd best song. Yeah, but the whole section just gets to me... 'had SSssmoke' .... takes me into McCartney cheese territory, so as much as I LOVe the orchestral swirlyness, this can never be my favourite.

Members Sad Darwin Posted September 1, 2010 Members Share Posted September 1, 2010 Get over yourselfI was just identifying why you might "not agree with 'Rain' at #88"........ Because the listener's opinion matters more than Rolling Stone D'bag #45's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil O'Keefe Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Paperback Writer came in at 35. Paperback Writer b/w Rain is one of the greatest singles ever released on vinyl. What a ridiculously fat electric sound they achieved - so sonically sublime. ... and yeah, A Day in the Life is tough to beat. Paperback Writer at 35? Boo! And yeah - as erksin said, it's a nearly perfect pop/ rock gem. P.W. / Rain really captures the vibe of Revolver, just as Day Tripper / We Can Work It Out really nails Rubber Soul...I think most of the stuff on their top ten list are deserving of being there... with maybe one or two exceptions. Paperback Writer being one of the biggest omissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
